| - | + | The Desert Island is a mostly lifeless area with a very hostile environment. Not only is food rare, but water and shelter is as well (this could be an alternative starting island). | |

| + | '''The Survivor's Camp-''' This camp contains the survivors of a shipwreck that happened sixteen years ago. The people living in it have practically given up all hope of returning to their homes in the civilized continents. The original passengers/crew were very diverse, so half-breeds are very common (and they do not have the stigmatisms against them that they do in other lands). The second generation (well, most of it, anyway) have recently achieved adulthood. The survivor count is 358: 94 Humans, 53 Elves, 45 Halflings, 19 Dwarves, 4 Gnomes, 26 Orcs, 38% Half-Elves, 33 Half-Orcs, 38 [[Quarterling]]s, and 8 [[Half-Gnome]]s. All help out to protect the camp, and policing is no longer deemed necessary. | ||
| + | '''Curvedclaw Settlements-''' [[Curvedclaw]]s have no permanent settlements, instead making temporary shelters out of the tough and durable plantlife found near oasis as they travel looking for food. | ||

| + | '''Saurial-''' Only one subrace of Saurial can be found here. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ''Curvedclaw-'' Curvedclaws are raptor-like Saurials. They live a very nomadic life, with a pack-minded society. In their minds, without their pack, they are nothing. Like their Velociraptor ancestors, their packs are tightnit and everyone knows their place. They do not believe in helping others of their kind outside their pack, as that leaves more rivals for an already small amount of resources. They attack other groups on sight (and many even practice cannibalism). | ||
