Terramort Isle

Terramort Isle was a vermin island stronghold located in the far northwestern sea, and the home of Gabool the Wild and his corsairs. Fort Bladegirt was located there. A particularly unique feature of Terramort was that it was crisscrossed by hundreds of tunnels, a characteristic utilized by the Trag. It was presumably abandoned after the defeat of Gabool and his sea rats, with Bladegirt gutted by Trag and Rawnblade Widestripe.

Trivia

[edit]
  • Terramort was referred to in a poem as the "Land of Death", which is the literal translation from the Latin "terra" meaning land, and "mortis", meaning death. The word "Terramort" is a portmanteau of the two Latin words.
  • At the beginning of Salamandastron, one can observe the lower half of Terramort (with its apparent lack of Fort Bladegirt) at the top left corner of the map.
