The Wildlands was once an Island of Terror, but has since become part of The Verdurous Lands[7][8]. Though all the domain's denizens fear its darklord King Crocodile, no formal government exists within this untamed tropical wilderness. All human attempts to settle this land are doomed to failure, seeming to indicate nature itself has an enmity against such trespass. Indeed, the animals of the domain are inherently hostile to humans and show uncanny cunning in taking out all trespassers. In fact, all the animals of the domain are fully sentient with personality traits afforded to their kind by humans. All save for the ubiquitous but overlooked fly can speak the language of humanoids, though for the most part they refrain[9].

The Wildlands, since joining the with Sri Raji and Saragoss to form the Verdurous Lands Cluster[7][8], no longer have a moon with potentially interesting consequences for lycanthropes having some part of the lunar cycle as their trigger condition[10].
