Day 2 - The Forest Hideout

---

The Forest Hideout

Venture into dense forests surrounded by towering peaks and nature’s raw power. The Forest Hideout is an exterior dungeon type that blends open wilderness with treacherous mountain terrain. Here, Outlaws and Wildlings sharpen their blades and prepare their ambushes.

• Natural Setting: Lush forests and rugged mountains create the perfect terrain for deadly ambushes.
  
• Faction Variety: Outlaws and Wildlings strike with cunning and ferocity, forcing new strategies in every encounter.
  
• Vertical Combat: Cliffs, ledges, and multi-layered terrain demand sharp eyes and quick thinking in three-dimensional battles.
  

The Outlaws

Cunning and relentless, Outlaws work together to flank and overwhelm their prey. They strike hardest from behind, turning every battle into a fight for positioning.

• Outlaw Recruit: Novices who charge head-on with crude weapons.
  
• Outlaw Saboteur: Shield-bearers who disrupt combat with tactical defense.
  
• Outlaw Archer: Ranged sharpshooters who rain arrows from hidden vantage points.
  
• Outlaw Executioner: A brutal mini-boss with crippling heavy attacks that slow adventurers.
  
• Outlaw Veteran: A deadly foe who scatters bear traps, forcing players to watch every step.
  

The Wildlings

Wildlings are savage warriors bound to nature itself. They will drink health potions to close their wounds, but the sharp adventurer can snatch them straight from their belts, turning the tide in their favor.

• Wildling Forester: Aggressive fighters who blend into the treeline before striking.
  
• Wildling Scout: Defenders armed with shields who hold the line with natural resilience.
  
• Wildling Hunter: Bow-wielders who stalk targets with precision shots.
  
• Wildling Druid: Casters who summon thorned vines to poison and restrain their foes.
  
• Wildling Giant: Towering golems of stone who shake the ground with devastating stomps.
