Read its tale: The Oak That Pulled Up Its Roots

Field notes

The oldest oak of the Autumn Woods, woken and walking since the Gloom crept into its roots. Its leaves fall like a storm.


Where it lives

A lair on the far side of the Autumn Woods, on the hardest ground, away from the harbour. It rises when someone comes within 90 m, sinks back a minute after everyone has left, and returns a game day after it is calmed. It is as strong as the top of its land's level band.


How to calm it

Weak to (takes more): Fire +55%

Tough against (takes less): Earth −50%

Its attack: the ground pound. It is slow to wind up (wind-up 1.1 s, then 1.9 s before the next).

How to dodge

Thornwood the Elder is weak to fire but shrugs off earth. It's slow to wind up its ground pound: step back out of the ring when they raise their arms.
