Greenport

Biodata

Geography and Districts

Greenport's geography forms an excellent sheltered harbor. The city lies south of the Rayak Kingdom, beyond the Twilight Wasteland. 11 13

Government and Public Security

Karon Lever owns the city and is portrayed as an extreme collector of wealth; Greenport's government follows the same money-driven character. 10

• Courts and police stations are widely corrupt, with the exchange of money for authority conducted openly rather than discreetly. 10
• Many police officers purchased their posts and routinely delay or ignore ordinary cases unless paid. 10
• Greenport Police Station has a reputation for coercing detainees into paying bribes and, when payment is insufficient, falsely branding them evil-god followers to close cases. 10
• Bahamut, the police station's chief, is a notable exception: he releases Pete Chinar after concluding he is innocent and does not solicit a bribe. 10
• Major churches hold greater enforcement authority than Greenport officials in matters involving evil gods and prohibited evil-god artifacts. 29

Economy

Greenport prospers through free trade, its neutral-port status, and transport links connecting it to the wider continent. 10 13

• Karon Lever controls the operating rights for merchant ships and airships traveling between Greenport and the Rayak Kingdom. 13
• The high cost of those tickets makes overland travel through the Twilight Wasteland comparatively dangerous but commercially necessary for many travelers. 13
• Rayak migrants in Greenport are commonly merchants with unusual goods or useful tradespeople; those without such opportunities often work as porters. 13
• Caron Academy was founded with Karon Lever's funding and is among the continent's largest and most renowned academies, though its reputation is damaged by purchasable admission slots and easily manipulated professional assessments. 6
• Karon employs fourth-rank archmages to spread lemon-mint-scented rain across the Upper City, then charges Upper City residents a monthly “Sweet Air Tax.” 40

Crime and the Black Market

The Lower City is plagued by gangs, while weak policing leaves residents with little protection. 14

• The Bloodfang Gang operates casinos and clubs in the Lower City, extorts businesses, and uses the black market for illegal transactions. 29 50
• The gang is identified by tattoos of bloody fangs. 29
• Its black-market activities include the sale of forbidden goods, illicit information, and women forced into sexual exploitation. 29
• Under Dursley's leadership, the gang seeks to dominate the Lower City before extending its control over all of Greenport. 39
• By the time of the Knowledge Sect's campaign, Bloodfang members have received power linked to an evil god and can possess Tier 1 strength despite having been ordinary people days earlier. 46 47

Notable Locations and Institutions

• Caron Academy — An Upper City academy where Pete Chinar studies for mage certification. It is notorious for admitting students based on payment and producing graduates whose real competence may be below their official rank. 6 12
• Greenport Police Station — The city's police force, broadly regarded as corrupt and ineffective despite Bahamut's conduct as chief. 10
