Storport is one of the villages making up the Small Ports on the southern coast of Nyrond.
Description
Stoport is one of the Small Ports located along the coast of Relmor Bay, being a fishing village with a population (in 585 CY) of around 1,000 people, and has modest docking facilities for the Nyrondese navy.
In 585 CY it was bullied by royal bailiffs raising taxes following the Greyhawk Wars. The locals were surly and fearful of the naval militias who visited and demanded food and supplies. Their own militia troops were relatively ineffective. Smuggling was a way of life, and a few people had even turned to piracy. The common unhappiness and erosion of virtue which beset Nyrond was quite visible in this otherwise simple, unexceptional community.[1]
