Hag Island is an island midway between Port Skaug to the north and Port Nyanzaru to the south. It was formerly protected by a magic wind which dissipated following the eponymous Hag's defeat by The Fishwives. After slaying the hag, they assisted the Marquis de Rothshyr in forming an encampment to house Orlanian refugees.
The history of the island was shrouded in mystery. There were no records of it until fairly recently [when?], despite its central location on the sea trade routes. The hag was clearly not its first inhabitant - several ancient ruins from different cultures were discovered by the Fishwives in their explorations.
The island's most notable features were its religious structures, which were connected by a series of tunnels to form a large temple complex. The Fishwives plumbed this complex in 218 V.II DRC, slaying various unholy and extraplanar monstrosities including the serpent-vampire Xipacna and an aboleth claiming to be the avatar of an ancient god of the Far Realm.
Geography
The island is mostly covered in dense tropical rainforest, which provide habitat for large wild pigs. Volcanic mountains rise above the forest, inhabited by gnolls, harpies, and at least one cyclops.
