Kelp Forest

Kelp forests are underwater areas with a high density of kelp. They are recognized as one of the most productive and dynamic ecosystems on this planet. The Kelp Forest is a region most known for Stalkers and its thick Kelp vegetation, most notably the Creepvine, giving it a very greenish color. Creepvine plants can reach as far up to breach the surface of the sea and are extremely useful for regenerating hunger and thirst.

Kelp Forests are found at medium depth and home to mostly peaceful life forms. They are characterized by a richness in greenish flora and fauna, grassy ground and a sandy seabed riddled with caves. Most of the raw materials found there are medium-level, like the harvesting nodes, Sandstone and Limestone.

This Biome ranges is from a depth of 15 meters in Safe Shallows transition to Kelp Forest, and extends down to 150 meters in northern Kelp Forest that spans to the Mushroom Forest.
