Another thing worth noting is that some islands are simply ridiculous - such as the player who claims to be the prince of a wealthy island kingdom, that can't be easily found because its name and location are kept a secret. It takes ten seconds of thinking to figure out how ridiculous this is, because
1. Pirates, who are more than willing to write down coordinates of a good place for looting.
2. If it really was a secret, that would severely limit how much trade could go there, meaning a lot less wealth, or no secrecy.
3. Going back to the pirates thing, it wouldn't take much effort to loot a ship headed there and get the crew to squeal.

Independent island nation? Fine. But don't go making it out to be glorious when it arguably can't be, and is a simple excuse to have a ton of rofl-money.

I might actually make a post for islands similar to what you described; basically islands of private RP's that shouldn't really be taken into public RP.


You know nothing, Blox Snow.


In all seriousness, I'll keep this thread in mind for the future, may need to put something up.

Towo Island (Pronounced Too Woah)/South of the Hook Region/Wu Rin/Startraphell

[A medium sized, slanted island. On the west side of the island is a steep cliff with a single cave that is populated by sea serpents, which come out during monsoon season. The east side of the island is mostly a beach. The island contains a single, but large settlement, populated by entirely humans. There are two large docks, on the south eastern and north eastern corners of the island. The southern dock is a civilian fishing boat dock, and the northern is the dock of Wu Rin's private trade fleet. The settlement itself consists of standard Wushankan (Japanese Style) houses, with a single large mansion where the Khan lives. At the highest point of the western cliffside is a grove of Sakura trees, with a single bench roughtly 4 feet from the edge. Lastly, roughly 30 feet west of the Khan's manor is a mine, which doubles as a smithy and workshop.]

Morpheus' Domain/Several miles North of The Arc/Morpheus' Dregs/Yeah RIP

[A disturbingly unnatural, large island surrounded by rock formations that butcher any large ship that approaches. There is a small town near the southern edge, however the design of the building matches no modern design, be it Western or Eastern. The rest of the island is populated by strange ruins, with an ominous cathedral at the northern edge. Odd, ork-like beings roam the island, and attempts to communicate from afar have been ignored. The only entrance to the island is via magic, or an incredibly small ship.]

Skyreach/Secret- it changes constantly/Guardians of Armadyl/None

Skyreach is a large, heavily fortified citadel that serves as the Guardians' headquarters. Constructed during the Second Age, Skyreach is a relic of Armadylean culture. It is the current IC resting place of the Divine Focus, and as such entry to the floating island is highly restricted.

The Satellite/Usually above Asgarnia or Misthalin/Guardians of Armadyl/None

The Satellite is a smaller citadel, used as a staging area for Guardians operations. A lodestone here makes visiting the island open to anyone.

^Maybe not the kind of islands you meant, but they're still landscaled places you can't find on the map.
