Blue: North Blue Name: Bulls Island Bank: D Warehouse: C Major: No Benefactor: None Turf: Gonehome, Righteous Landing Components: Bandit, Indigenous People, Lawless Environments: Desert Size: Medium Inhabited: Yes Description: Bulls Island is in the shape of a target, with there being a main center island that takes up the majority, with a second ring of land on the outer edge that is covered in dead trees and other wildlife, and a final outer ring that is made up completely of jagged rocks. There is two kilometres between the outer ring and the second, and one kilometre from the second ring to the center. The center island is eight kilometres in radius, with there being a natural 200 metre canal going from the north-most point of the third ring all the way down to the south-most point, slicing through the middle of the island and other ring. There are multiple towns scattered across the entirety of the island, though the most notable of them is Gonehome in the far west, the city of the current indigenous population. There's also Righteous Landing, a town with limited streets and ever-growing housing. It's touted in the land as the safest place to be, though with little to no law enforcement, it's not saying much. Encyclopedia: Satan Steel Lore: While the very origins of the island itself is unknown, the farthest back that history is recorded is 100 years. At that time, there was a group of indigenous people on the island who, for the most part, lived in peace. There were different tribes of these natives, but they were all united under one banner. However, it wasn't long before outsiders had landed upon Bulls Island. These men had landed and made friends with the natives, but during their stay, the metal Satan Steel was discovered. Fueled by greed, these men went from allies to enemies, slowly taking over more and more of the island before driving the natives to the far west corner. After this hostile takeover, the island was renamed from whatever it was before into it's modern day Bulls Island despite the fact that there were no bulls on the island. (It was named this as a ploy to throw people off guard so they wouldn't come to the island and take the metal.) For a time after that event, which is now known as the Arrival to the locals, the island prospered. With, what was believed at the time to be, an exclusive metal, they were able to sell it like crazy pull in a bunch of people to work in the mines to export more of the metal. With the capital established, there were a bunch of smaller towns that began to pop up around the various mines. Along with the money, the new metal allowed for some new technologies to be created, making the gap between the civilization and the indigenous people even larger as the years went on. That was until 25 years ago, where the amount of metal being produced hit an all time low and it was discovered elsewhere, causing a crash in the economy that was irrecoverable. The mining towns became barren as there was very little money coming in, and since the area only allowed for a few select plants to grow and there wasn't enough money to import food, many ended up leaving. However, the natives were fine through all of this. Now, a majority of the island has fallen into their own small nations, with various towns having their own set of rules and everywhere outside of a town being the literal wild west. The native population has also become agitated as well, the desire to reclaim their land slowly sweeping over their people. It's only a matter of time before they try, and when that happens there may be nobody to stop them. Technology: Skillful
