Kelp Forest

Template:Infobox Biome The Kelp Forest is one of many underwater biomes, featuring a high density of Creepvine kelps. They are recognized as one of the most productive and dynamic ecosystems on this planet. The biome is also known as the home of Stalkers, as well as the distinct green hue of the water. Creepvines can reach as far up to the surface and have great uses for replenishing hunger and thirst.

It is located at medium depths and is home to mostly passive life forms, with the exception of the Stalkers and Bleeders. The terrain is composed of mossy ground and a sandy seabed riddled with entrances to the Kelp Forest Caves.

Most of the raw materials found here are at medium-level depths, with many harvesting nodes such as Sandstone and Limestone. The Creepvine Seed Clusters not only provide light and a beautiful night time scenery, but are also crucial ingredients for making lubricants.

Currently, there are six Kelp Forests on the map.
