Seafalls

One of the smallest islands in the Empire, Seafalls holds its own in trade largely due to the number of master crafters that live here. The island is a mix of all known races save the goliaths and aarocka. The crafters also include a number of sea dwelling humanoids. The island is densely populated and is a huge consumer of goods from all over the Empire. The island is ruled by “The Grand Master of Crafts” appointed for life by guildmasters throughout the island and the seas. Each guild has a representative, most commonly the guild master who helps insure that trade and sales of goods are to the benefit of all the guilds. The council house is actually located on a floating platform so that both the air and water breathing members can attend.

The island does have a few free-ports that anyone wishing to buy or sell small amounts of goods, food, drink, magic (limited), and almost anything else. The free ports are heavily patrolled to insure that no violence interrupts trade. All five major trading houses have offices and small warehouses here. There are also a number of much smaller, specialized trade companies with at least some presence here.

Adventurers know that visiting Seafalls can allow them to sell things that might raise eyebrows in most other parts of the Empire. Sometimes trade houses hire adventurers to go in search of very rare items or materials that one of the crafters needs. These contracts can be quite lucrative, but almost always call for the adventurers to risk their lives for what the contract calls for.
