Category:Tortuga Cay
A small island with a big problem, this cay can hardly support itself and maintain a natural balance with the weak ecosystem that is formed on this coral reef. A ranger from the eastern forest gave up his life years ago in the woods to attempt bringing some checks back into the islands population. Ocean voyagers openly boast of having hunted and killed turtles with unusual shells and coloration's near Tortuga Cay in order to earn more profits from a sea journey. Such trinkets are valued as trade goods to many mainland stores and nobles buy them as rare gifts. It is heard from all accounts, the ranger still lives there and even encourages poaching of these animals as a control.

Adventuring
This is a caster's paradise. The majority of the tortugas are no-aggie, no-flee big juicy mobs that yield 100+ xp for a hero. It must be noted though that melee attacks are worthless here, so it's rare to see anyone but casters running through the area. A good PP and reference point for this area is Conian, who is hidden. Casters, take some time before 101's statloss to learn the handful of aggie mobs in the area, and then you'll be gaining levels incredibly quickly.
Blunt damage melee attacks work fine, so monk/shf and blunt weapon using (such as bzk) characters can kill here as well as casters. Psi Dancing Weapon also counts as spell damage and so works well here.
Beware, the two gigantic tortugas are stompers and the snapping aggie above lower level is a corpse eater.
