Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

Aerragvull has a population of 10,000 sophonts (tens of thousands).

• This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

Faith and Belief

Most of the population follow the Church of the Chosen Ones. Formerly, until around 900, the world had almost exclusively followed Taarskoism, worship of the ancient Vargr god Taarskoe.

• The regional sect of the Church has declared Taarskoe to be a prophet of the faith and formally recognized his teachings, and in so doing has brought many followers of Taarskoism into its fold.
• Many of the faithful carry a short, unadorned sword.
• Some groups reject the Church of the Chosen Ones, continuing to follow pure Taarskoism.
