Subject: Paradox Canopy (Center) 10th December 2014, 9:46 pm
Name: Paradox Canopy (Center) Description: The Center of the Paradox Canopy is home to the tallest trees within the Land of Canopy all gigantic and anchored within the beginning of the massive lake in the south of Paradox also known as Rebirth Lake. The trees themselves vary in size with the shortest being around 1000 ft tall, however in general they vary from being 1500-2000ft high & having trunk diameters of 150-200ft (at base) into the air with the tallest tree being known as Maia which is in the center of the Paradox Canopy which is 3125 ft tall (416ft trunk diameter at base), towering over all the trees in this location. The trees are linked to the swamp constantly sapping water through their roots making the trees water logged and often if cut into they actually can gush water depending on how deeply they are cut into. The reason why this location is called Paradox Canopy is due to the trees themselves as they have no branches except at the top which is spread outward easily triple the sizes of the tree trunk thus it makes climbing to the top of said trees very difficult even for those with chakra due to the sheer distance covered.

Canopy Nest:
The Canopy Nest is a inter collected series of personal nests (typically parents and 2-5 chicks) to a section of the Aero Tribe with the actual nest location being within Maia's canopy, most of the branches are filled with homes for members of Aria's flock being capable of supporting hundreds of these which are all nested on the same and separate branches in order to maximize the spread area so that members can have privacy if need be. It is likewise home to some of the best fliers within the tribe simply due to the sheer distance one is required to travel to get to it and chicks are routinely dropping from the sky attempting to fly with groups of mothers patrolling to rescue any chick which has been falling for too long even if it isn't their own so as to prevent casualties.

Upper Canopy Shrine:
Located on the canopies of the clusters of trees (2000ft in the air) around Maia due to Aria utilizing her ability to control nature to alter the natural growth of the tree branches to form a shrine for Gaia. It is built like a natural wall around Maia's trunk to serve not only to anchor it but also prevent easy access in regards to climbing to the top. It is the primary worship center for the Dobutsu native to the Canopy shrine and is often used to introduce chicks to the Deity with adult or teenage Aero Tribe Dobutsu being priestesses tasked with teaching chicks about the love of Gaia. The bottoms of the branches are enshrouded by leaves however all are covered in mushrooms courtesy of Aria which not only serve as a ready food and resource supply, but likewise are capable of releasing spores when agitated all of them working to boost the scale (to reflect the area covered as long as they aren't destroyed) of mushroom related techniques.

Mid Canopy Shrine:
Located on the canopies of the clusters of trees (1500ft in the air) around Maia but farther apart in comparison to the Upper Canopy Shrine, it is built like a natural wall forming a ring around the Upper Canopy Shrine with 100 ft of just branches and leaves between the two. Due to the wall like appearance it is the secondary place of worship which coincides with being used as healing places for injured Dobutsu, tamed creatures and occasionally even feral ones may come in order to benefit from healing if they were injured by shinobi or successfully evaded capture. The branches which form this shrine are layered with stiff jagged leaves which can result in victims being cut up if they end up roughly trying to climb on or rush through. In fact the Shrine is layered in specific ways that make exiting easy but entry difficult due to the spaces being wider on the inside than the outside, thus flexible or young Dobutsu & Small Animals can often exit from the interior of the shrine the latter being able to exit and leave freely due to their size.
