Blood Drop is a village in Might and Magic VIII: Day of the Destroyer. It is located in the Dagger Wound Islands region, and is the game's starting town.
Background[]
Blood Drop was a small village of lizardmen that traded tobersk fruit with outsiders, including the merchants of Alvar. Dadeross' caravan visited the island, but the trade talks were cut short when a volcano rose from the the sea, causing a wave that washed away all bridges connecting the islands to each other and the mainland. Seeing an opportunity, the Regnan pirates attacked the village.
Chief Onefang wanted the Hero of Jadame to reach the smaller islands and rescue the villagers stranded there. He also wanted the hero to inform the Merchant Guild about the Regnan attack, and hoped that they would send help.
When the Regnan pirates were driven back, he remarked that the village would likely never be the same, and he was unsure whether they would rebuild the village or move somewhere else. "I know you have done great things for us, but not everything can be fixed once broken."
