War Zone Yaisdra: Tulagik Islands Terrain

The jungle covering much of the Tulagik Island chain is a truly deadly enviorment. Most of the plants are toxic, and just brushing against them can be fatal. Other plants spew forth spores that can suffocate a man in a heartbeat if they are inhaled. Even worse are the swarms of insects flitting between the trees. Most of them have deadly stings and bites: however the most horrifc are those that lay their eggs in the living, which hatch into larva and consume their host from within.
