The Sunlit Wetlands.

The Sunlit Wetlands is a Location within the Wilderness in Chapter One. It is south of the Blighted Village, and consists of the Riverside Teahouse and the area around it.

This location is also known as the Putrid Bog.

Area Information

The Putrid Bog once the illusion has broken.

The Sunlit Wetlands is a peaceful and picturesque location south of the Blighted Village.

The Sunlit Wetlands is actually an illusion; this location is really the Putrid Bog, a foul bog laden with traps, poisoned food, Redcaps, and is the home of the hag, Auntie Ethel.

Breaking the Illusion

There are several ways to break the illusion and reveal the true appearance of this location:

  • Upon entering the area, the character will be given the option to make an Investigation check to see through and break the illusion. Monks, Sorcerers, Warlocks, and Wizards will have an additional class-based option they can select which will reduce the difficulty of breaking the illusion.
  • By speaking to one of the sheep in the area, which is really a Redcap or Redcap Blood Sage in disguise. If successful on an Animal Handling check, the character will realize the sheep is an illusion, causing the location's illusion to fail.
  • Attacking one of the sheep, which will force the character into combat with the Redcaps, breaking the illusion.

Spike Traps

Spread throughout the deeper water are spike traps that when triggered will inflict Bleeding and Open Wound with no Saving Throw. A DC 15  Constitution saving throw is needed to overcome the Open Wound, which will progress to Rotting and lastly Flesh Rot which have the same saving throw requirements. The traps also aren't removed when triggered, allowing them cause harm constantly unless disabled with a Sleight of Hand check with a Trap Disarm Toolkit at a DC 10. Considering how many traps there are, it is better to avoid them by staying away from deep water or waste toolkits which are hard to come by for now.
