Tanaroa

Tanaroa stands in a clearing at the edge of a jungle. It us just south of a 50 foot high wall built of huge blocks. This wall stretches for two miles across the thin neck of land that joins the southeastern peninsula with main island. Evenly spaced along the wall are 28 square towers, each 100 feet to a side and 70 foot tall. In the center of the wall is a pair of massive wooden gates. Each gate has double doors that are 40 feet wide, 40 feet tall, and 5 foot thick. The village guards and controls these gates. Four clans are in the city; Elk, Hawk, Tiger, and Sea Turtle. In the center of the village is a flat topped hill that has been artificially leveled. In the center is a 10 foot tall, truncated pyramid that is made of earth and faced with stone slabs. Tanaroa is one of seven villages that combined have a population of 2,100 total. On 9/20/00, Lord Gregory arrived with the QC2 Quasqueton Fortress to explore the Isle of Dread. He met with Queen Lokar where both agreed to form a trade route with each other. Lord Gregory gave funds to build a trade post and hire fifteen of her villagers to operate it. Lord Gregory also bought a few wagon teams plus warhorses for his use when they were in port. Lord Gregory also started to build a shipyard to accommodate traffic between Quasqueton city and Tanaroa.
