"The desert is drying and forbying..." - Spawn message of Forbidden Desert.
Forbidden Desert is a desert that has a 1% chance to replace a Desert every hardmode day. Instead of water, there is poison (deals 3 damage per 12 ticks on contact) which is purple. Underground there is large amounts of poison and scorch lava. Scorch lava instantly kills an entity that touches it, by dealing 400000 damage negated by armor. It cannot harm bosses.
