Duster Rank/Title in The Cradle of Worlds | World Anvil

Duster

Most slaves of the Delve Corporation don't survive 50 years. Those that do are given the title Duster.   The name comes from the dust produced in the refineries of Vertin Dust. The dust itself can cause side effects in the slaves, so the living of 50 years as a slave is an impressive biological feat as well as being strong and capable enough not to commit suicide. It is uncommonly given to humans, halflings and gnomes as they rarely reach this milestone, those who do are given much respect and historically given a free status among the town of Ver'Del. Though this has changed since the latest rebellion. Magzana Sylvaranth led her revolt when attaining the status of Duster and being made free. Other noted Dusters include the Orc Hvuiit, the tiefling Barloc, and the master of whips elf Niamalin also known as Niamalin the Cruel.   The Duster Tiefling Voral lives now in Ilroor Maror and is considering leading a team to overthrow the Delve corporation. If only he could find a strike force willing to take up the task. Ozgarath the Indulgent would not have a problem with this provided the current Letter of Delve and Ilroor is considered valid and maintainable. If such terms or even better terms were given there might even be an option to persuade Ozgarath to provide some resources to make it happen. Though Voral has yet to be successful in this persuasion.
