Reading Notes: Sindbad (Part A)

http://mythfolklore.blogspot.com/2014/06/sindbad-first-voyage.html- 2016
Young and foolish character with a fortune with a heart for sailing and adventure. Explain a little more about his merchant bargaining past. Purchases boat with fortune with a buddy of his to set sail around the world trading merchandise. Think about where he gets his passion for the sea and sailing from. His Father? Brother?

*Que Shipwreck* Possibly the Kraken?

Come up with a cool island name that relates to future plots. *Think KONG Island*

Meets the head honcho of the island. Possibly a tribe leader or a king?
Brings home riches from a successful trip of trading. Brings joy to his family, purchases land and slave. (Place: Bagdad)

Grows idle in life and seeks adventure. Gets marooned on an island by his crew, finds riches and gold galore, but not successful at leaving the island.

Need to come up with a cool way for him to leave the island.
He could be left stranded on the island for many years until he is found again and trades some riches to be rescued. Keeping the rest of the island hidden.

Steals a ship and comes back to find the island underwater/ruined by nature?
Maybe it has not been inhibited by a variety of venomous snakes that are huge in size.
