The Obsidoak split from its ancestor and became considerably larger due to lack of competition. This massive tree, found most often in woodlands and riparian biomes but also scattered around more open or mixed biomes, has also gained many small spore chambers instead of just a few large ones, now scattered throughout its branches. This makes it very reproductively successful. Its sap is somewhat bitter, though it is not poisonous.
The Obsidoak’s branching now extends to its trunk as well, increasing its surface area for photosynthesis and creating a huge microclimate for fauna to climb and nest in. This also vastly increases the amount of shade it casts, which helps eliminate competing flora. Though the leaves on top can get very hot in the sun, the vascular system of the Obsidoak is designed to carry hot sap into shaded parts of the tree to cool off, preventing it from overheating in the summer. The Obsidoak can take over 150 years to reach full size, but it can live for a few thousand.
