Geography

Society
Culture
The City of Shadows has a dubious reputation amongst the Overlords, often labelled pirates or worse by other kharadron of their rival sky-ports. They are also well known for their ability to interpret the Kharadron Code to their own advantage. The code has even been adjusted several times to try and halt actions carried out by the privateers of the Barak-Mhornar. They are also well known for their special optics that grant superior night-sight and unusual tattoos.[1]
Alliances and Treaties
- The Treatise of Shadows is a formal trade agreement between the Skyport of Barak-Mhornar and the Free City of Misthåvn that was initiated after the latter came to the aid of the former's airfleet.[6a]
