Gen Con 2026 Trinket Trading Map 1: The Cave of the Green Crab

Map 1: The Cave of the Green Crab

The Glassy River, known for its clear and fast-moving waters, flows from mountains in the far

 north to a sea just to the south. A ways north is a small fishing village named Tabria. Most of 

the day and night, the entrance to the Cave is covered by the river. At low tide, especially 

when the moons are close, one might stumble upon the mouth of the cavern, clamber up the

 sloping tunnel, and discover the great Green Crab peering downward. The slightly magical, 

lichen and moss-encrusted formation is 20 feet in diameter and about 5 feet tall. The chamber

 is barely large enough to allow one to squeeze around the Green Crab to discover a hidden

 niche on the north wall and a newer exit tunnel dug to the surface in the southwest.

 

 


 

Robina Muckrog, 34,  is a Human who leads the Cult of the Green Crab. She is vivacious

 and persuasive. Her long blonde hair is dyed green at the edges, and she has a winning 

smile. Robina’s freckles, while an annoyance to her, are quite cute, and her bright blue eyes 

shine with true devotion. Her frame is solid, though she is short. She wears long, brown robes

 that have a green crab embroidered on the back. She uses a sturdy oak staff to bless her

 congregation. Her favorite item is a green crab made from beads and string by one of her 

fervent followers.

 

Robina stumbled upon the Green Crab Cave fifteen years ago. The cave is large and 

features an internal rock formation that resembles a giant crab. Over the years, moss and 

lichen have covered most of the rock, giving the cave its name. Robina, who was poor and 

starving at the time, prayed fervently to any god that would listen and later that very day

 stumbled across some food and her staff. Thus began the Cult of the Green Crab. The 

buildings near the cave are the facility where Robina doles out jobs, and many of its members

live and worship there.

 

Robina lives in a two-room beach shack. She lives there with her adopted daughter,

 Giana, 10, also a Human. The two live modestly and spend most of their days in prayer and 

worship. The cult is poor, eeking out an existence on fish from the Glassy River and whatever

 they can trade fish for from the nearby village of Tabria. Robina’s best friend is Georgette

 Snakeglow, 30, Human, who is Robina’s assistant. They both enjoy playing cards together

 after a long day’s work.
