The Overworld is a rainforest with stereotypical high amounts of rainfall and a constant overcast sky. The thin canopy is primarily composed of indigenous [[Glowing Spidervine]]s and [[Red Starburst]]s, the respective bioluminescence and color of which lend some variety to an otherwise monochromatic overhang.
