'''Krawk Island''' is a small tropical island eighty miles south of the coast of [[Mystery Island]], discovered on 5 September 2001. It is inhabited by [[Krawk (Petpet)|Krawks]], a [[Petpet]] usually found in [[Tyrannia]], and is a harbour of choice for [[Neopia]]'s pirates.  
'''Krawk Island''' is a small tropical island eighty miles south of the coast of [[Mystery Island]], discovered on 5 September 2001. It is inhabited by [[Krawk (Petpet)|Krawks]], a [[Petpet]] usually found in [[Tyrannia]], and is a harbour of choice for [[Neopia]]'s pirates. The [[Fungus Cave]] can be found here, which is where Krawk Petpets can be transformed into fully formed [[Krawks]]. The island is a popular location for pirates and because of that, the majority of the attractions on the island are pirate themed.


Krawk Island is notable for its use of [[Dubloon|Dubloons]] as its primary currency, rather than the much more widely accepted [[Neopoint|Neopoints]]. It is the location of the [[Fungus Cave]], which is where Krawk Petpets can be transformed into fully formed [[Neopet]] [[Krawk]]s.

Krawk Island is made of many smaller island that have been towed together and anchored to the sea floor. The founders of the island did this to make it harder for the Dread Pirate Sherman to raid them - one large island is more defensible than many small ones. In 2011 it was split back up into the small pieces by the Krawken and the player had to reassemble the island. Once complete, Krawk Island returned with a new design.

{{main|Disappearance of Krawk Island}}


In 2011, the [[Krawken]] [[Disappearance of Krawk Island|broke up the island]] into small islets again. [[Gavril McGill]], with the aid of [[Neopets]] players, retrieved the islets and redesigned the island. After the repairs were complete, Gavril appointed himself governor of the island and set about [[Anchor Management|defending]] the island from being broken up in the future.  
In 2011, the [[Krawken]] broke up the island into small islets, leaving only [[Gavril McGill]] and his home on a small island where they used to be. He enlisted the help of the players to find uncover the reason for the disappearance which lead to the discovery of a book detailing the islands history. It was revealed at this point that Krawk island was originally made up of several small islands brought together and connected to the sea floor to help protect against the Dread Pirate Sherman.
 
The players first task was to search areas of the ocean for the missing islands using the ship The Surly Peadacle and its crew. As islands were discovered the player was rewarded with items. The second part of the plot involved bringing the islands back together by the player keeping their ship balanced through a sudoku-esque mini-game.
 
McGill, with the aid of [[Neopets]] players, retrieved the islets and redesigned the island. Throughout the event, McGill becomes increasingly ruthless and quite frequently calls his ''friends'' his ''underlings'', going as far as appointing himself up as the governor of the reformed island after repairs were complete. To continue defending the island from being broken up in the future, McGill allows the player to fire his cannons at the Krawken, through the [[Anchor Management]] daily task, to scare it off.<br style="clear:both" />
