Red Isle

The Red Isle to the Minotaurs is known as the "Bleeding Heart of the World," or KrulKator in their language. It is a multi-tiered Volcanic Island. There are small areas of freshwater and rainforest areas on the hundreds of small ledges that make up the terrain here. The coast is lush and rich. The Chieftains live in practical harmony near the top. There are fighting pits, but all fighting is done with honor. The differences in tribes are more to do with their traditions, martial styles, or exports. There are some fierce ideological differences, however.

It is an equal-power tribal society. Four tribes. Each "King" respects the other and they live in relative peace, but their power structure is based first on size, second on fighting ability, third on leadership (one can always challenge a poor leader for the throne). The Kings are easily between 8'-14' tall. There are fighting pits, but they are organized and rarely result in death. The pits are used to settle disputes, for worship, for exercise, and sport.

The Red Isle is an active volcano with many natural wide, flat cliffs that large huts are build upon for settlements, ringing the mountain. The differences in the four tribes are where they place their faith and how they choose to fight.
