Forest

Forests comprise the majority of the surface world, and are where the player usually initially spawns (although sometimes the spawn point is in a snow biome). The landscape of a forest includes lots of grass, plenty of trees, several lakes ranging from small to large and, sometimes, Sunflowers. Dayblooms and Pumpkins can be found growing in this biome. There is a small chance for low tier ores to spawn on the surface in a forest.

The background of forests are randomly generated upon world creation. Regular Forests can be erased by the spread of Corruption, or Crimson, and the Hallow.
