Lake Quag is the third largest body of fresh water in the Flanaess. Fish are plentiful in its waters, including giant pike and gar and is a source of considerable wealth and food for Perrenland, although the fishers themselves are sometimes eaten. The waters are far from safe, especially in the colder months.
Nixies are also known to dwell beneath the waters of the lake, effectively ruling most of the western depths
While Perrenland controls most of the coast and the majority of the water, the northern shore is controlled by the Tiger Nomads and Wolf Nomads. The town of Ungra Balan is the only major settlement on the shoreline, although the lesser towns of Wallport, Zuis and Greypike (located to the east of Ungra Balan) also hug the shoreline to the east of Ungra Balan. These are technically within Wolf Nomad territory.
Considerable traffic is on the lake for most of the year, including Rhennee bargefolk in the summer, though the surface often freezes in midwinter. Special sled-like boats called iceskimmers sometimes sail on the lake at these times, though it is dangerous to take them far from shore.
The Velverdyva River drains Lake Quagand before heading south. The Fler is the principle inlet to Lake Quag, water draining from the Land of Black Ice.
