Blackwood

Blackwood is a settlement deep in the Isles of Gandra known for its lawless inhabitants and shady dealings. Founded by the legendary pirate Walthorn, Blackwood has become a haven for many of the pirates and outlaws who roam the area.
Stanway Walthorn was a pirate in the late 1270's who amassed great fortune plundering trade routes between Trizia and other countries. His infamy grew until he was sought after by pirate hunters. After a battle with Primus Weslee Crowley, Walthorn's ship "Santianna's Revenge" was doomed, but not before Walthorn was able to sail the boat onto one of the nearby islands. Walthorn and his crew stashed their loot in one of the nearby islands and formed the small community of Blackwood. The settlement was eventually found entirely deserted, but Walthorn's Treasure or crew have never been found.
In the coming years, it slowly grew as a place to lay low from the law, but the dangers of the Isle make it an inhospitable place. Inhabitants follow simple codes (more like guidelines really). Any sense of order is kept in place by the High Tide.

Government

Blackwood is essentially lawless, with the only sense of order being kept in place by social norms and the High Tide's supremacy.
