-A generally safe area with 21 turtle-themed mobs and one druid mob. A good PP and reference point for this area is [[Conian The Hermit Ranger|Conian]], who is hidden. The average tortuga provides experience between 90 and 150; the ones in sanctuary at the lower level provide 170-300 (there are only two). While this is primarily an area for a low level caster, some monks/shfs occasionally have been spotted killing a turtle or two after a run, as conventional melee weapons do not work on these mobs.

While this is primarily an area for a low level caster, some monks/shfs/bzks occasionally have been spotted killing a turtle or two after a run, as edged melee weapons do not work on these mobs.
 Note that the two gigantoise turtles are stompers, so avoid dropping any items in their room. The aggressive mobs are the horned, snapping (two of them), and spiny tortugas. These are evil alignment; the rest of the tortugas neutral, except for the immature tortugas which are saintly. Conian is also of good alignment, but be careful - he casts faerie fire and area spells, which can implicate other players in the room. The tortuga matriarch, who is at the lower level, has a natural resistance to spell damage (comparable to sanctuary) and will require more mana to kill than the other mobs. In fact, all the turtles are sometimes resistant to damage, where an unsurged disintegrate or torment can leave them in excellent condition for the first hit.

-Top portion is pretty safe, with three aggressive tortugas (rights side (horned), middle (spiked), and the entrance to the below portion (snapping)). The bottom is all cursed.
+The lower level is all cursed. The southern tip of the top level leads to the Sea of Strayed Hopes.

-This is a caster's paradise. The majority of the tortugas are no-aggie, no-flee big juicy mobs that yield 100+ xp for a hero. It must be noted though that melee attacks are worthless here, so it's rare to see anyone but casters running through the area. A good PP and reference point for this area is [[Conian The Hermit Ranger|Conian]], who is hidden. Casters, take some time before 101's statloss to learn the handful of aggie mobs in the area, and then you'll be gaining levels incredibly quickly.
