Formed in 750 BC[5] in the wake of the Grand Conjunction[6], the Nocturnal Sea is an evolution of Nebligtode, a set of islands formerly in the Sea of Sorrows that included Todstein, Graben Island, and Knammen Island.[7]

As he was with Nebligtode[8], the darklord of the domain is Meredoth.[4] However, the reclusive necromancer has yet to completely realize the extent to which his domain has expanded.[9]

Beyond the islands that were formerly part of Nebligtode, a number of other islands rest in the Nocturnal Sea. The islands have their own darklords and most, if not all, were not seen in the Core before the formation of the Nocturnal Sea. The discovery of so many ports in such a short time (relative to the discoveries of such in the Sea of Sorrows) has left somehopeful for a navigable trade route from the Sea of Sorrows to the Nocturnal Sea. However, no evidence has appear to demonstrate this route exists beyond wishful thinking and hearsay.[10]

"Behind The Curtain: What’s In A Name?

When it was introduced in the 2E module Ship of Horror, the domain of which the necromancer Meredoth is darklord was referred to as “Nebligtode”. In Domains of Dread, the same darklord’s territory is referred to as “Graben” in the Ravenloft Timeline, yet is re-styled “the Nocturnal Sea” in the geographic description of the Core. The Arthaus products are similarly inexact, listing the whole of the Nocturnal Sea as if it were a singular domain by that name. As the Nocturnal Sea is, to natives of Ravenloft, a geographic region that incorporates portions of at least half a dozen other domains, this Survey now restores the title of Meredoth’s domain to its original usage. In this and future FoS netbooks, “the Nocturnal Sea” will refer to the actual body of water, independent of domain borders. “Nebligtode” specifically means the sizable fraction of that Sea which falls under the necromancer’s purview as darklord."[11]

The Nocturnal Sea is a body of water that encompasses a handful of domains. The largest among these are the Nebligtode and Drowning Deep.

The Nocturnal Sea is subject to tides. The Schlammholme Islets are separated from Graben Island only by the highest of fall and spring tides. L'ile de la Tempete is subject to quite extreme tides. Curiously, the eastern end of the Vuchar River has become subject to tides that mirror those of the Nocturnal Sea

It includes mistways to Har'Akir, the Nightmare Lands, and Souragne.

Ports of the Nocturnal Sea

  • Mavalga is a small fishing port on the Nocturnal Sea that harbours a population of 209 souls. It is not far south of Rutledge which itself stands on the border of Darkon and Nova Vaasa. This is to say that Mavalga lies on the edge of the Ehrendton in northeastern Nova Vaasa. It was assaulted by the Bad Wind in 755 BC.
  • Kantora can be reached with small ships from the Nocturnal Sea via the Sydligdnar, although with difficulty owing to its current.

Chronology

  • Mid 500s BC - False History? - Puzzling accounts of Darkonian false history speak of sailors encountering a figure resembling the Lady of Ravens. Whether these accounts are false history of Darkon or the Isle of the Ravens remains unknown. These reports make mention to even earlier folklore, and more reports continue to persist well over into the next two hundred years.[19]
  • 690 BC - The merchant ship Dragon's Gold enters Ravenloft in the domain of Île de la Tempete, and its crew falls victim to Monette.[28]
  • 741 BC - The future domain fragments begin fusing together into what will become Liffe.[32]
  • 743 BC - After forging the sword Felauragoth, Kalibos enters the Tower of Flint, intent on killing the Lady. He fails and loses Felauragoth, but he escapes her wrath.[32]
  • Factors of the Carlyle Trading Company arrive in Armeikos and begin acquiring storage facilities and ships, threatening the Boritsis' dominance of the local shipping industry.[40]
