Geography
History
The Scarlet Brotherhood did not land on the island during the occupation.
In 595 CY, a Scarlet Brotherhood ship sinks near Gefjon Isle during a fierce storm, killing all onboard. It is suspected that ships task was to conquer the island.
Settlements
- Bandhar - the only settlement on Gefjon is a small fishing village. (pop. 100).[1] Though there are some shepherds and small scale farming, as well. [2] There's not a "government, per se. The people of the island usually simply mind their own business, only coming together when the situation warrants it.[2]
.
A few piers with small fishing boats form the village’s ‘docks area’ and the village itself only has a score of buildings, most of them simple wooden huts. A light wooden palisade with an unstable looking watchtower is built on the northern side of the village. and a larger wooden house with a board showing a beer mug. [2]
- Temple of Procan - Fregn and Bettel are custodians of a small stone building on the waterfront with a symbol of Procan (a trident over a cresting wave).[2]
- Fickle Wares - general store,
- Anig’s Bar/Inn - a small bar at the waterfront which has seen better days. The floor is not in very good condition, the tables are small and the chairs have obviously been repaired quite a few times.[2]
Notable Locations
- There are many natural caves on the northern part of Gefjon, some of which are at least partially submerged. Others are completely submerged.
