Commodore Treat Bainbridge, Flotillamaster
The entire nation of Pavageux sits on top of a massive swamp. The founding members assumed no one else would want the mucky land, and they assumed correctly. The place is a mixture of land, water, bog, swamp and muck. It is dynamic, the landscape and waterways change drastically along with the seasons. The dense plant cover makes it almost impossible to see anything on the ground from the air, and it also makes it almost impossible to see anything on the ground from the ground past about twenty feet. Also, the presence of major predators such as Drow Koi, large crocodiles and large leeches make the entire region very difficult to inhabit or travel through.
The governmental administration saw need to set aside a large percentage of the annual budget towards maintaining a fleet of water-based vessels, for a variety of purposes:
- providing security escorts through the swamp
- searching for people lost in the swamp (a frequent occurence)
- exploring the swamp for areas suitable for habitation
- clearing out or relocating nests of large predators
- coordinating mapping efforts
