Inhabitants

Notes

Culture

  • Carnivale, Sperantsain: Weeklong party with masks. This started as a ploy of subterfuge for Suentius to help Lucidus outcasts and secret societies to work against the Dark Empire, wrapped in a way that was very attractive to the decadent Dark Empire. It was conceived as a "gift" from Suentius to honor Lascivia, but was actually a manipulation to resist her.
  • "Bon Voyage" before any voyage, pour a bottle of wine on the deck of the ship for good luck.
  • "Welcome Home" when you arrive home from a voyage: toss coins into the sea as thanks for a safe voyage.
  • Mate Lot: The ability to form a legal partnership and inheritance with anyone in your "crew".
