Blackspore Swamp

Blackspore (Blackspore Swamp) is a town in the southeast corner of Sacred Grove. It is a dark and gloomy swamp where there is little difference between night and day. Amid the bogs are rotting remains of what existed before the Unbinding including archaeological sites, the Ancient's Wall, and myriad fossils to be collected.

Blackspore is roughly rectangular in shape with the long dimension running north and south. The western side is swampy terrain and the eastern side is submerged under a dark lake. The main outpost, Mire's Edge, is clumped into a loose knot along the shore. Just north of Mire's Edge is Mucklewhump's Ferry. The presence of old man Mucklewhump gives the impression he once gave boat rides to the Isle of Tears out on the lake. South of Mire's Edge is the Ancient's Wall, and south of the wall is the Sinking Graveyard, Shadowtalon Dojo and the Quagmire Quarry. There's a lot of mystery surrounding the quarry and the unexplained deaths of some of the miners. Blackspore is separated from the rest of Sacred Grove by a mountain range that rings the town. There are two tunnels under the mountains that lead to town and there is also a warpstone in Blackspore near Mire's Edge.

During the annual Super Spooktacular Blackspore is home to the Vampires vs. Werewolves Dance-off, which takes place just outside the gates of the Bone Bog Cemetery. The Dance-off is hosted by the Pumpkin Prince, whose tomb is in a corner of the cemetery. Many of the Super Spooktacular quests involve searching around Blackspore and crossing swords with the many haunts found here.
