Avaricia

What Is It? What is on it?
Avaricia is a 100% land scaled area. It is a tropical, uncharted island located south of Lumbridge. It is mainly made up of a settlement of people that have been shipwrecked, though there are natives that have varying attitudes toward the settlers. The island is mainly thick jungle. There is a small island to the southwest of the island. This is where the settlers commonly stay. This island has a small bridge to the main island and has a building on it. This building is for smoking meats and storing food. To the north of this island is a dock with four waka canoes. To the south is a ship owned by a pirate captain that joined forces with the settlement. Under this small island is an underground cave. On the main island side of the bridge is a tower. This tower has wooden sides, but is protected by a moderately thick shield of earth. This tower has two floors, and the top floor has a brewery in it. This cave has four buildings currently in it, and is slowly expanding. In the southern middle part of the island, directly east of the bridged island, is a quarry. This quarry contains various ores such as mithril, adamantite, silver, coal, and more! This quarry also has a mine shaft right next to it, for more intricate mining. Outside of this quarry is a small forge and anvil. In between the quarry and the bridged island is a lake. This lake contains various fish that are not seen on the mainland. There are also various animals here, called Graahks. They are spined and have thick hide. This is the only big game on the island. Between the bridged island and main island is a small river. This river has a fishing net across it to catch any fish that choose to go down it.

The Founding
The founding of Avaricia was an interesting one. It was founded by Zamphere Alcyone and Daezjon. They were both from a mercenary group stationed in Varrock, called Avarice. They were having drinks one time when vyres attacked the city. They holed up in the basement of the Blue Moon Inn. One day they had enough and sneaked out. they fashioned a crude canoe, and went down the River Lum, aiming for Lumbridge. They oversot lumbridge, and their canoe sank. they were then washed to the north shores of Avaricia. They wondered through the jungle and found the small island with a tower and bridge. This is where they decided to start the settlement.
