Arena {'location': 'Root Hollow', 'description': "The boss encounter takes place in the heart of Thornhollow Rift's most extreme terrain feature. The arena is shaped by rift tectonic conditions — no neutral ground exists. In 0.68g, player jump arcs extend 47% further than Earth-equivalent, and boss knockback sends players 35% further than expected.", 'arena_size_m': 124, 'special_terrain': 'Thorn-rift junction', 'hazard_active': 'Rift Thorn Impalement'}
Ground blurb The Fault Prowler the Ancient is the apex expression of Thornhollow Rift's ecosystem — a creature that has been shaped by rift tectonic conditions across centuries of adaptation in 0.68g. It is not simply dangerous. It is what Thornhollow Rift would be if the biome could choose to fight.
