Honestly, this is my “nice” setting, so I try to soften things a bit for the sake of having a reasonably welcoming and just setting for players to do high adventure in. I’m not even sure debt-slavery as we know it is a thing.

So if debt-slavery isn’t a thing, I imagine chattel isn’t either.
Is it more of the Khazari system then? There’s a section in Cryptkeepers where the slavery of the Marches is presented pretty viciously.
@unoriginal_username Told you Idris wasn’t a Texan.

Khazari slavery (the Khazari, of course, wouldn’t call it that) is supposed to be a welfare programme in the same way that workhouses were in 19th century England - they are supposed to provide people with a purpose and basic needs for those without them.
Of course, it’s also a system rife with abuse - which is why people like Selim have jobs.

So is this comment about the Iron Marches no longer canon, or has the MC just been exposed to blatant rumours and misinformation (given that the Iron Marches are probably regarded as a wild and uncivilized land?)

The furthest west the MC’s ever gone is like, Sonnemerci, so chances are, they’ve just been listening to the wrong tavern tales.
Chances are…

The Black Legend but about the poor Marchers, I see…
Will there be new storylines, mechanics, items, characters, etc? This looks like an interesting pursuit
Well, in this kind of setting, slavery only exists to give the PC a chance to lead a revolt.
What’s the location of Montfort, roughly?
What is the state of a mage MC who did not choose the “Become 2nd Court Mage” as his reward? Is he still considered Isan’s apprentice? “Promoted” to Isan’s assistant? Or did he, for lack of a better word, “graduated” and is independent of him?
That.
Graduated, but by the same token, you’re always your master’s apprentice, you know?
I just wonder if MCs who ended the first game sharing Isan’s tower are still living there. The view is nice.
I suppose the question will apply to all mc’s Who didn’t select a place of their own as a reward.
Hey. I got 5,000 silver. I can live wherever I want until the next big payday.

@Cataphrak So I saw the new patron article and was wondering. If the Stone that Torin found and the one from the guild keeper was related in some way.
Aside from both being Flowering Court artifacts (they do like their magic gems), no.

Is dueling culture also part of/accepted in Mazzare and Isonza, or is it solely a Fiore thing?
