'''Magic Map''' is a special type of map that only works in the Twilight Forest dimension. The Magic Map reveals a expansive view of the area around you. It shows an area four times as large as a normal map, and in the Twilight Forest, it will reveal what features lie in the nearby regions. One can obtain a Magic Map by crafting 8 Paper and a [[Magic Map Focus]]. Like regular Maps, these can be duplicated, but cannot be zoomed out.
'''Magic Maps''' are an essential tool to any serious explorer in the Twilight Forest. Crafted with {{mcw|Paper|Paper}} and a [[Magic Map Focus]], it links intrinsically to the dimension to show valuable information of the surrounding lands around the bearer.


When used, the map will display several things a normal Map would not. The first difference is how biomes are displayed. Each biome in the Twilight Forest is given a different color that hints to what the biome would look like. Some biomes are surrounded by other biomes; these biomes are affected by [[Progression]] and need to be unlocked. Outlining these biomes are streams, represented with a deep blue.
==Description==
A magic map works much in the same way as a map in the Overworld does but with key differences. Because of its link to the fabric of the Twilight Forest dimension, it cannot locate the user if they are in a different dimension. Helpfully, when first used it will show an area four times larger than an Overworld map. While it can be duplicated, the view cannot be expanded, thus several maps will need to be crafted (by moving outside of the bounds of an existing map) for those who explore further afield.


Another difference is the icons on the map. These icons correspond to a Major Landmark, such as white mounds representing [[Hollow Hill]]s and a Naga Head representing a [[Naga Courtyard]]. There are several more icons, but each one usually defines what the landmark is.
Unlike an Overworld map, a Magic Map does not show the lay of the land, but instead, the various biomes of the Twilight Forest and their boundaries in various colours. As such, one can ascertain what area of the forest they are in, as well as nearby regions at a glance. In particular, it can be easily seen on a map where some biomes are surrounded by others, which may be under magical protection. For example, an explorer will not be able to travel into the [[Fire Swamp]] without first defeating a [[Minoshroom]] deep in its [[Labyrinth]].

The map's magical focus is also able to detect major landmarks, marking them with distinct icons onto the map. Combined with the biome mapping, an explorer should have no trouble in determining where they are and where they want to venture to in the Twilight Forest.

Magic Maps are an essential tool to any serious explorer in the Twilight Forest. Crafted with Paper and a Magic Map Focus, it links intrinsically to the dimension to show valuable information of the surrounding lands around the bearer.

Description

A magic map works much in the same way as a map in the Overworld does but with key differences. Because of its link to the fabric of the Twilight Forest dimension, it cannot locate the user if they are in a different dimension. Helpfully, when first used it will show an area four times larger than an Overworld map. While it can be duplicated, the view cannot be expanded, thus several maps will need to be crafted (by moving outside of the bounds of an existing map) for those who explore further afield.

Unlike an Overworld map, a Magic Map does not show the lay of the land, but instead, the various biomes of the Twilight Forest and their boundaries in various colours. As such, one can ascertain what area of the forest they are in, as well as nearby regions at a glance. In particular, it can be easily seen on a map where some biomes are surrounded by others, which may be under magical protection. For example, an explorer will not be able to travel into the Fire Swamp without first defeating a Minoshroom deep in its Labyrinth.

The map's magical focus is also able to detect major landmarks, marking them with distinct icons onto the map. Combined with the biome mapping, an explorer should have no trouble in determining where they are and where they want to venture to in the Twilight Forest.

See below for the key to the many and varied biomes in the Forest, as well as the landmarks where adventure can be found.
