History

An inscription on a rock on the bottom of the southern rock cluster reads, "This island were fashioned by Synful."

Fugu is the Japanese word for the pufferfish, and also the Japanese dish made from the same fish. The fish is highly poisonous to humans if prepared incorrectly, and a as a result of this, fugu has become one of the most highly-celebrated dishes in Japanese cuisine. This island looks somewhat like a pufferfish, with the caves and sincosite spawns making the face of the fish.

Blockade history

In July 2009, Gretchen Goldfang took control of the island as part of its opening for colonization.

Fugu I, 2009-08-15: Theatre of War successfully defeated the Brigand King flag Jinx in a three-round sinking blockade to colonize the island, also defeating The Usual Suspects in the process.

Fugu II, 2009-10-11: The island was taken by the Brigand King flag Ice Wyrm's Brood in a four-round sinking blockade. Theatre of War did not defend - instead, The Usual Suspects and Hooked both defended as un-declared contenders. However, both flags pulled out after winning the third round, allowing the Bringand King to win.

Fugu III, 2009-10-17: Hooked took control of the island from Ice Wyrm's Brood in a three-round sinking blockade.
