History
This village, like many in the Pirate Islands, is built on the ruins of Crugmar, an old Derrotian Age town. Like all other cities in this region, Crugmar was devastated by Orthanc's armies in the Patricide War and was unhabited until the end of the Derrotian Age. Seven hundred years after it ended, a band of Sea Elves colonizers decided to move to the island and together they estabilished a small village there.
With time, the small village became a big one, housing around ten thousand people before Amled's War Against the Living. When it began, House Gensinh built a headquartes fortress in the town and the The Red Gauntlets joined the Boabaid Family and the Navy in the fight against the Arch-Demon Entrenius and his hordes of Void Monsters.
When the war ended, House Gensinh did not deactivate this particular headquarters. The commerce between Heim and Rockvar was flourishing and Rockvar needed to secure passage through the now called Pirate Islands. Therefore, a small garrison from The Red Gauntlets stayed in the village. They are still there till this day and aid Mayor Craven Phonius to run the city. They also provide job opportunities to the local adventurers and mercenaries.
