Moore Bay

**Moore Bay** was a quaint town of exiled Sand Elves, led by one of the town's founders, Shards. Once, it was a well-fortified settlement where exiles could live their lives out together in peace, only worrying about helping support one another. However, after Shards was kidnapped by the Glitterati (as well as her entire house), an easy opening was provided to the Salt Dwarves who often eyed the locale. Though attempts to fortify were made, the townspeople (protected by the as-of-yet-unnamed party of Halintar: Respite of the Gods) were powerless in the face of Balktan himself, whose roaring voice rendered the protectors and many citizens comatose. A bulk of the villagers survived, but the town itself has been totally leveled.

## History

The town was originally built around 200 or so years ago, with Shards and a sand elf named Shoes serving as the primary founders. Though Shoes passed away some time back, Shards continued to serve the community through the use of her powerful glass-manipulating magic, which she used to maintain walls around the entire village.

After Shards was lost, the town was attacked by Balktan. Those who weren't rendered comatose by his first roars escaped together, as their homes were leveled.

## People of Note

### Founders

* Shoes was a sand elf of unknown origin, a quirky individual who apparently grew up somewhere around the Southwestern Fringe. Despite his disconnect with the other elves' culture, he cared deeply for them, which is why he pushed to create Moore Bay in the first place.
* Shards was the other founder of Moore Bay. Though she disguised herself as a sand elf for many years, it was revealed as she was being kidnapped that she was actually a dragon- a crossbreed between yellow and brass.

### Residents

* Sarnai, the previous leader of Caravan 17, previously lived at Moore Bay for some time after being exiled for unknown reasons. She left for Kaiken without saying goodbye not long after moving here.
* Chingus is Sarnai's uncle, a sand elf with a very strong accent. Though he did not hold an official leadership role, he was often seen as a leader in the community. He is a baker and farmer, and many people came by his shop every day. After Shards was spirited away he took the leadership role of the town, and helped many of them get to safety. His current status is unknown, but presumably still alive.
* Whemmu was a weaponsmith who seemed to be rather bad at his job. However, it was revealed that he had secretly been re-creating his own personal submarine by investigating and salvaging old Salt Dwarf technology, which is what was used to save the H:RotG party after they were kidnapped. His current status is unknown.
* Satana was a shy carpenter, a young sand elf who was exiled after being given an unfair rite of passage of unknown detail. He met Rok'saog Bonecrush while roaming the wilderness, who helped him safely reach Moore Bay.

### Visitors

* Corinthia Sun-Wind passed through Moore Bay early on in her journey to explore the continent of Halintar. She became fast friends with Shards, and "paid" for her visit by helping design and build Chingus' bakery.
* Rok'saog Bonecrush was allowed into Moore Bay as she escorted Satana to safety. She assisted in fending off salt dwarf attacks around the outskirts of the town's borders when she met and joined up with the as-of-yet-unnamed H:RotG party.
