Faradun

Faradun is acknowledged as the wealthiest mercantile state on the continent. Its prosperity is built on a foundation of grey-market trade and a lack of moral scruples.

The Farad People

The inhabitants, the Farad, are a mercantile folk notorious for their unscrupulous business practices.

• Business Ethic: They will buy or sell anything to anyone, with no questions asked.
• Governance: Ruled by the Kral, a powerful monopolist who dictates the price of all goods in the capital.
• Religion: They revere Avar, the deity of material wealth and personal gain. Followers prostrate themselves before purchased golden idols rather than building temples.

Tarun: The Capital

The sprawling port of Tarun serves as the center of all trade in Faradun.

• Defenses: Described as ominous and impregnable.
• Economy: Dominated by the sale of contraband drugs and weapons.

The Farad's trade policies have earned them widespread enmity across Talislanta.

• Trade Partners: They maintain strong ties with Imrian slavers.
• Weapon Supply: They are known to supply armaments to hostile regimes, including Rajinnar and Aaman.
