Located between Lada and Pordaga, the largest two continents of Nova Atlantis, are the Douglas Archipelligo. Named for the famed Dark Age pirate warlord Roddam Douglas who first discovered and first colonized these islands using mainly the captured crews of ships that his fleet stole and shanghaied artisans, whores and farmgirls to create the town of Port Douglas from 1344 to 1350 After Tranquility, the Douglas Archipeligo are a fairly substantial volcanic tropical archipelligo with about a two thirds as much land as the British Isles of Terra. Due to their isolation, life has evolved on these island (especially the main Island called Douglasland) along lines quite diferent of those of life on Lada, Pordaga or Forodwraith. Among them are the scrubsnappers.



Scrubsnappers are descended from seal-like Beach Wallowers that gradually hunted more and more on land, evolving into the dominant land predatory. Scrubsnappers are 0.8 to 1.5 meters long on average and weigh about 20 to 50 kilograms. They have an odd waddling walk using their middle two legs on modified flippers. Their prefered method of hunting is ambush and they can reach speeds of up to twenty four kilometers per hour over short distances. While not the most efficient predator, they can bring down a 200 kilogram Striderwrech or an unprepared human. Sixteen species of Scrubsnappers have been identified.
