Settlement: Tortuga, Sea Turtle Island, Sea Rats

[Jacob Nion]

Colony Name: Tortuga

Ownership: Sea Rats

Location: Sea Turtle Island (Island #10, West Prio Sea )

Island Description: Much of the coast of this Island disappears completely below the waves at high tide, and the surrounding sea is very shallow, allowing only smaller ships to near the island, with exception to a small rocky portion to the northern side. The Island interior--that which stays above water at all times--is dominated by coconut palms and other salt-tollerant species. The small island is the hatching site for innumeral sea turtles, multiple times per year.

History and rumors : The natives to the Prio Seas do not live on this island. They believe it is, in fact, a massive sea turtle, and the mother of all sea turtles. Occasionally they will bring tribute and offerings to the island. These offerings disappear at high tide.

- visiting Tortuga @Bregir

If the settlement wants to, it can license the build. (Unless it has already done so ;) )

[Professor Thaum]

@Bregir: We have established a plan for the settlement with jacob but I'm like you with Montoya... I'm waiting for his come back...
