Magic, Science, and all-the-ways-they-mix Research Team!
There are a lot of forgotten relics, forsaken lands, and forbidden arts lost to the waves and time. The Raiders of the Lost Arts are dedicated to finding, researching, and potentially utilizing whatever they can find. Legal methods of acquiring information and research materials may or may not be followed. The crew is also incredibly inclined towards Moon-themes and most of them are bibliophiles.

Notable Items
Ancient Tome of Forbidden Knowledge "A tome depicting ancient, forbidden arts from a long-lost arcane practitioner. The book is so ancient it's actually difficult to read or make out anything, and it also seems to have a habit of trying to bite the reader."; picked up on the off chance it has something in there that matches the handwriting from the Tombstone Rem is investigating and starting the magic research library off the correct way: with forbidden knowledge and violence (biting) - Donated by Dongfang Qingcang
We have been a crew for two months, so we can now submit a request for an ISLAND QUEST.
SO! What kind of island do you want for our Crew's home base island? Toss ideas out for the sort of features you'd like, +1 those that others suggest and we'll put in a request in a week or so after everyone's had time to look and vote.
Daqiang's power is fire based so a volcano would be very useful for him to build magical protections using his own fire power and to drawn on the power of when needed.
At least one decent sized mountain/volcano for height! He definitely wants a palace at the top.
Definitely favoring this one coz it looks less sunken in and more, like, naturally protected? and also there seems to be room for beaches. that's important okok, they should have sandy beaches because they should all have a place to relax! Also i noticed someone up there commented hot springs. that has a +1 from me too lol
So maybe between this render and the other one you did, it would be a good middle ground of a caldera-style island.
I like the idea of a volcanic caldera and I'd like to add the idea of some hidden grottos/sea caves. Something like these images but maybe one large enough for the Phantom Moon to dock in?
