Freeport

Cloud sat on the crates watching across the bustling harbour, her tail swished slightly as she took in the scents and sounds of life. So, this was Freeport a new start for anyone and a place where your past could be forgotten, somewhere you could make your fortune or lose everything in one night. She purred slightly “This is going to be fun” she said quietly to herself.

Located on Crescent Island  island in the Islands Of Mist , Freeport is a haven for anyone looking for a new start, it is a racial melting pot where you can see creatures of all shapes and size. The street bustle with life as the merchants of the world meet to trade in the place that anything can be brought for a price.The only thing that one cannot buy here are slaves, since the Lord of Freeport has a serious issue with slavers, and it is not good to get on his bad side as he is the be all and end all of local law enforcement.
Many taverns dot the streets and it is always lively at night in the port that never sleeps, festivals are common and even when one isn’t going on it feels like it should be.
