Saragoss is a domain that forms part of the Verdurous Lands. Its darklord is Draga Saltbiter.[5] The domain consists of a mass of seaweed and mire floating in a sea. Dozens of shipwrecks are trapped in the seaweed.

The Verdurous Lands cluster does not have a moon with potentially interesting consequences for lycanthropes having some part of the lunar cycle as their trigger condition. Equally, there should be no tides.
