The Snotling Farm

A strange place exists on an island close to Donaru, the place
is exotic in it is own way. The off-the-beaten-track adventurer
usually go here to see the full glory of what the shrewdness of
the human mind can create. During the goblinoid wars 300 years ago,
the Harazam mages created a weird experiment. They had managed to
capture a few strange goblinoids, which are called snotlings. After
months of research, the Harazam mages were amazed of their ability to
survive in any conditions. During the wars it was also understood
that the snotlings were brought along as food for their war trolls.
Since they already have several troll captives, they came up with
this extremely bright idea to create a snotling farm.

The farm was built on one of the islands outside Donaru and they placed the
troll and a couple of snotlings there. The farm covers around
10000 square meters and is surrounded by a tall stone wall to prevent
anyone from escaping the farm. To be really sure that no one escaped,
magic was of course used as well. The troll was magically empowered
so that it would never age. Then they left the island and the idea was to see
if the snotlings could adapt and survive this hostile environment
and maybe someday manage to kill the troll.

The island is no longer under the watchful eyes of the Harazam mages and it
is quite easy to sneak over the gate and take a look at the
snootling farm for yourself. Beware of the troll though, it is usually quite

peaceful and very satisfied with eating snotlings. And do NOT anger it,
it\'s a very cunning and old troll and the troll is sight of itself and
should be left for other adventurers to see. An intersting fact is that the
snotling
has named this troll \'Death\', which is a quite suitable name from their
point of view. Since the majority of the snotlings end their days in his
stomach.

The place is a quite disgusting and miserable in fact, snotling have the
ability to multiply very easily and live out of nothing. So the place is
crowded with corpses of snotlings or by so miserable snotlings that
should already be dead. Well beside the funguses that the snotlings
grow as food. One more thing to notice is that the snotlings have
managed to evolve during their years on the island and you can find
snotlings in all kind of colors, even though their original color is green.
Some adventureres even claim that they have seen a device that they
have created, which would have the potential to kill the troll. That is
probably only a rumour though.

Oh well a last remark, each year there is a contest that Methuselah (owner of
The Bowl) arranges. The contest is arranged in secret, the
Juzam mages would be outraged if they would catch them exercising
their game, \'the Snotling Throw\'. It is simple, whoever throws a snotling
the longest win.
