Mavalga

Mavalga has a population of 209 and sits on the shore of the Nocturnal Sea in Nova Vaasa. It is a fishing village, equipped with an inn, a tavern, a blacksmith, a dry goods store, and possibly other simple establishments. It lacks a fane of the Church of the Lawgiver, but he is worshipped here as elsewhere in Nova Vaasa. There is reason to think that the hamlet lies between Arbora and the mouth of the Saniset River on, or just off of, the Vaere Bange Road. In 755 Mavalga was assaulted by a maddening wind. The entity responsible was driven off by a Captain Josef Zhitoff with the assistance of a band of adventurers. It is known as the Bad Wind. Its name, however, is Borealis.

Chronology

755 The seaside hamlet of Mavalga is driven mad by the Bad Wind. The scope of the attack is somewhat blunted by the efforts of a Borcan aristocrat named Josef Zhitoff who captains the Bulwark and who has been hunting the Bad Wind for the last year. There are unconfirmed rumours of subsequent attacks along the coast of the Nocturnal Sea. [Unless there is a way for a ship to pass from the Sea of Sorrows to the Nocturnal Sea this should not happen before 751 and probably somewhat later; CoTN:F pg. 24-29]
