Map of the Menagerie Coast
The Swavain Islands is the name of an archipelago located to the south-west of Wildemount, off the shores of the Menagerie Coast and north of The Shattered Teeth.[1] Most of these islands are managed politically under the leadership of the Clovis Concord, with the exception of the separatist Darktow Isle, which is run by the pirate union called The Revelry, under the leadership of The Plank King. Darktow was the home port of Captain Avantika.[2]
The indigenous people on this series of islands were called the Ki'Nau and are thought to have been granted the blessing of Uk'otoa at some point in the ancient past.[3] There are three abandoned temples of Uk'otoa across the region.[4]
