{{Main|Curse of Maraqua}}


New Maraqua was discovered after [[Garin]] escaped from New Maraqua's prison, letting his gossip of the city spread to the ears of Captain Scarblade, who attacked the city. When he discovered the Maraquans were losing, he donned his battle armor and began fighting himself. King Kelpbeard (who fought Captain Scarblade himself) and his army had the strength to defend their kingdom (with little help from all of Neopia), and were able to force back the attack. New Maraqua now trades with surface once again. King Kelpbeard will not forget that fateful day so many years ago.
After an attack against his old kingdom by Captain Scarblade many years ago, Kelpbeard made a royal decree during the rise of New Maraqua that forbade any of his people from interacting with surface-dwellers. Sometime during the reconstruction, he brought in two orphaned [[Aisha]]s: [[Isca]] and [[Caylis]]; each having abilities of foreseeing good visions and bad omens, respectively. He was forced to banish Caylis after the kingdom's people began harassing her for her omens coming true.


==Trivia==
New Maraqua was discovered after [[Garin]] left the kingdom, letting his gossip of the city inadvertently reach the ears of one of Captain Scarblade's crewmates, who in turn passed it on to the captain himself. When Garin returned to warn the kingdom, Kelpbeard blamed him for the war that would take place and sentenced him to be imprisoned in the deep dungeons. He even went as far as to banish Isca, who had broken the king's decree many times and temporarily housed Garin.
*On January 25, 2007, King Kelpbeard was featured in [[Better Than You]], scoring 4300 in [[Jubble Bubble]]. Reward was a '''Maraquan Ixi Squirty Toy'''. Quoted saying...<blockquote>''That Maraquan Shoyru has been working endlessly trying to save his friends. Why don't you go lend poor Kelby a hand? If you do a good enough job of it, I'll reward you. Try and be quick about it, though....''</blockquote>
 
*Many think King Kelpbeard is a [[Royal]] Koi because the Royal coloured Koi looks like him. In fact since the [[The Rainbow Pool|colour]] Royal was not obtainable for Koi until recently, King Kelpbeard is indeed a blue Koi.
When he discovered the Maraquans were losing, he donned his battle armour and began fighting himself. King Kelpbeard (who fought Captain Scarblade himself) and his army had the strength to defend their kingdom (with little help from all of Neopia). It was with the help of Garin (who had escaped) and his crew, as well as the two Aisha sisters he exiled (with their giant petpet [[Goregas]]), that turned the tide of battle and defeated Scarblade's crew. With his trust in Surface-Dwellers restored, he named Garin's crew as honorary citizens. He soon lifted the ban of Isca and Caylis as an apology for his misjudgments (the latter, however, decided to stay outside the kingdom).
*Oddly, while he was a fighter in the Battledome, he did not use King Kelpbeard's Trident in battle. This was because it did not exist by the time he was released.
