The Arcane Desert Biome, also known as just the "Desert" Biome, is a biome found within Worldbox. It grows fastest during the Age of Sun. Creatures are 30% slower than normal in this biome, and have a 5% chance to restore 1% mana each step creatures take, and civs need Arcane Desert Adaptation to build here. Game Description "The Golden Sands do not seek to destroy. They want to understand - by consuming everything first"

Traits[edit]

Creature trait and Subspecies traits only apply to creatures/subspecies that spawn in the biome. Clan, culture, language, and religion traits only apply to clans, cultures, languages, and religions that start in the biome. Not guaranteed to have these traits, selection is random (see here for more info).

Flora[edit]

This biome is made using the Arcane Desert Seeds power
File:IconFertilizerTrees10x.png The biome consists of palm acacia trees with most being quite short to the point of looking like a bush. These trees are immune to drought (Age of Sun effect)
Plants in this biome are small patches of green shrubs and grass. Desert Berries are the unique food that grows here, which can give creatures the Poisoned status, Slow trait, and Poison Immunity trait. Berry Bushes cannot grow in this biome.
