The Mire
The Mire is a biome added by the Ancients Awakened mod and is one of the two Chaos Biomes. The Mire has a swampy and amphibious theme, contrasting the Inferno's fire and draconian theme. The Mire is guaranteed to appear in the world, appearing on the side with the Jungle.
The Mire contains many dangers in both Pre-Hardmode, Hardmode, and post-Moon Lord. In the center of the Mire is the Lake of the Rising Moon that leads to a cave with Mire Pods, which can be broken to obtain loot and summon the Hydra. The player can die in the lake due to drowning. The Mire also contains the Mire Altar, which is functionally identical to the Demon Altar. The Mire also contains an island above the Lake of the Rising Moon which can be used post-Sisters of Discord to summon Yamata, Dread Nightmare. Many enemies can also spawn in the Mire, however they can only spawn during the night. If the player enters the Mire during the day, their view will be completely obstructed by fog.
Upon world generation, the Mire can extend into the Jungle and Desert biomes. However, the Mire cannot spread like the Corruption and the Crimson. Also, for functional purposes the Mire counts as a Jungle. Meaning that Plantera won't enrage when in the Mire. However, once the Wall of Flesh is defeated the Mire will expand. In Hardmode, the Mire can be spread by the Clentaminator using Indigo Solution. It can also be spread by using Dank Seeds. The Mire can be cleared by either using Order Solution or Sunpowder.
