You know, the campaign's tone is supposed to be a little uplifting, at the very least bittersweet, but that's something that's going to have to come out of the adventures and the course they take. Oh, other ports exist, on the islands and small ones on the coast of the Middling Lands. The Port is unique in that it's the only place ships from across the Aster Sea dock, and that it somehow contains pieces of many, if not all, of the port cities that existed in the World Before. Seeing as I haven't added anything to this thread in a while, I think I'll add a few more colorful characters, starting with...<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Emmanuel Raze is an angel, specifically, a deva warlord who makes his home in the Port. In Heaven he once held the rank of Commander of the Third Host of the General Millennial Assembly. Now he's the sole proprietor of the Battle Angel School, reputed to be the finest fighting academy in the Middling Lands. One would suppose the school's entrance requirements demand virtue as well as martial ability, but this is not the case. Emmanuel is a very practical sort of angel. In fact, he seems especially interested in students of the Infernal persuasion. This practicality extends to the techniques he teaches, which have been described as a kind of "divine street fighting". Raze is particularly fond of a swift knee to the tabernacle...  Rumor has it he's been this way since his lover Immaculata was kidnapped by a Duke of the Infernal Isles. To this day she is believed held in his fortress on the Port of Dis. Raze has led one failed attempted to return her already, a century ago, leading a squad who came to called the Hellstormers. Upon his return to the Port with the survivors he founded the school, threw his doors wide to student of all ethical stripes and incarnations, and, one assumes, continues to plan his beloved's rescue.</li> </ul></blockquote>
