One Merchant Prince’s Folly is Another Man’s Profit
Port Nyanzaru is known for its ability to survive any assault or skirmish that comes its way. However, that does not mean it comes away unscathed. As the beasts and creatures of the jungles send their all to take Port Nyanzaru, only the most formidable defenders will be able to send them fleeing back into the jungles. In the rush and havoc of battle, the Batiri and yuan-ti alike tend to lose valuable items and even powerful artifacts. Rumors have it that the grave masters and yuan-ti carry with them ancient Skull Lord staffs, artifacts said to have been lost to time.
After a skirmish, the more confused and docile dinosaurs and Batiri mounts are left in the dust to be claimed and tamed by the citizens. Mounts aren’t the only things the Batiri leave behind. Known to desert their weaker brethren, it is no surprise to find Batiri mindlessly wondering the streets after an attack. These little guys are quick to find new allies and even make acceptable guides and valuable companions to those that traverse the jungles.
