Wood of Sharp Teeth

The Wood of Sharp Teeth, formerly called the Glimmerwood, was a dense forest south of the River Chionthar, southeast of Baldur's Gate and southwest of Scornubel. It was a wilderness except for Durlag's Tower on the forest's southern edge. Uldoon Trail ran to the south east of the wood.

Locations
The forest contained the site of the ruined (as of 1374 DR) city of Vehlarr.

History
Before it was named Wood of Sharp Teeth, it was called Glimmerwood by the elves of Askavar, who no longer lived there by the 14 century DR.

Some time between 409 DR and 516 DR, a spelljammer crashed in this forest and was discovered by Eldrus Wands. Out of amusement, the magister preceded to take command of the ship and piloted it into the depths of the Lake of the Long Arm.

By 1369 DR, the Twisted Rune had placed a magical gate in the area to allow for instantaneous movement to other locations.

For a brief period in the 15 century DR, the forest was known as the Werewoods. Former Grand Duke Valarken was rumored to live there after his failed coup in Baldur's Gate. He and his lycanthrope followers were trying to rebuild Vehlarr.

Inhabitants
The forest was home to satyrs, dryads, and a small number of werewolves, and some believe wolfweres also dwelt within.
