'''Tapoa''' is an untamed island of scrub desert in the furthest southwestern reaches of the known world. The oppressive heat of the desert overwhelms the wild beauty of the sandy beaches of this distant shoreline. A strange and fearsome monster known as the Vultubus awaits any hardy traveller who climbs to the peak of Topoa's lone mountain.

The island rises steadily out of the shallows that border the southern shore, reaching a central plateau of packed sand surrounded by shifting dunes. The hard ground permits only the most stubborn of plants to grow, except where fine crystals of sea salt have collected in blinding-white mounds. To the northwest and above the plateau, a dark mountain looms ominously. In the shadow of Mount Tapoa, a sandy valley supports a bit more plantlife, fed by a single freshwater spring. A shallow inlet near the northern end of the eastern shore of Tapoa provides the only safe natural harbour.
