User:Blupo/Blooming Plateau

Overview
Blooming Plateau is the 8th floor in the game. It is a picturesque plateau, featuring many trees and beautiful flora. It is unlocked after defeating the Smashroom in Entoloma Gloomlands.

In this area, the player spawns in the middle of the Divine Garden. Once out of the garden, the player will find Giant Praying Mantises, Petal Knights, Leaf Rhinos, and Sky Ravens in the area. In some parts of the map, there are several stone ruins among the forest. One of them can lead to the island in the sky where the player can battle the Hippogriff, which is the miniboss of the floor. A medieval castle is also in the area, which was fully swarmed by the Petal Knights and Sky Ravens. A large portal awaits ahead in the castle which leads further into the floor. The portal brings the player to the Ruined Temple, which is a larger stone ruin that leads to the main boss dungeon, only to be guarded by several Leaf Rhinos and Sky Ravens.

The name of the boss maze is Mechanical Labyrinth.

Dungeons
The main dungeon's boss is Formaug the Jungle Giant. Once the player first enters the dungeon, they will be greeted by a numerous swarm of Forest Wanderers. A maze was made as a challenge for the player before going to the boss, which much resembles the dungeons in Decaying Maze, Redveil Tower, and both dungeons in Desolate Dunes. As the player goes further through the map, the Wingless Hippogriff and Dungeon Crusadors will stand in the player's way. Once out of the maze, a staircase going up with a voided background (which resembles the dungeons in the Decaying Maze and the Catacombs) which leads to a room with a giant tree, and under its trunk is where the boss spawns, guarded by 4 Dungeon Crusadors.

The mini-boss of this floor is the Hippogriff. It can be found by going through a portal in one of the old ruins around the map and heading up to the stairs until to its nest.
