Castle Island is a pocket domain[1] that is home to a twisted sirine known only as the Lady of the Lake. She pursued a vendetta with the castle's original master on the prime material plane after the latter had erroneously slain her husband, who had been transformed into a monster called the Avanc. The Lady of the Lake sacrificed her own offspring to achieve a revenge which has ultimately been denied to her. An Avanc still roams the black water of Lake Kronov, but it is not the one she loved.[2]
This pocket domain is a small island located within Tepest, in Lake Kronov[1], and draws some inspiration from The Lady of the Lake of Arthurian legend.
Castle Island clocks in at a rank 2 sinkhole of evil most of the time, but can rise when the Lady of the Lake has victims to torture. It contains few landmarks, only a few trees and the crumbling ruins of Demnach Keep.[3]
