| + | '''What is the state of seafaring and maritime trade?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | 1: There is only riverine and coastal traffic. No-one even crosses the Inner Sea directly without some urgent purpose.<br /> | ||
| + | 2: The elves and the wayehi-speakers have limited high seas capacity; lands further around the Inner Sea are known primarily from seafaring.<br /> | ||
| + | 3: All coastal nations have some high seas capacity; a number of other lands, separate from the main continent, are known and visited.<br /> | ||
| + | 4: Most of this side of the world is known, mapped, and visited by seafarers. Only the dreaded waters towards the edge of the world are shunned.<br /> | ||
| + | 5: As 4, but the elves also have a credible, if untested, plan to cross the edge.<br /> | ||
===Politics and Society=== | ===Politics and Society=== | ||
| β | + | '''Who, in theory, is the ruler of the orc kingdom of Brugo?''' | |
| + | |||
| + | 1: A descendant of the pre-imperial lords of Brugo.<br /> | ||
| + | 2: Someone who claims to be descended from Kuhetzib the Conqueror, but is not believed outside Brugo.<br /> | ||
| + | 3: A descendant of one of Kuhetzib's generals.<br /> | ||
| + | 4: A member of a family that has risen to prominence more recently.<br /> | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''And in practice, who runs Brugo?''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | 1: The monarch, an adult orc.<br /> | ||
| + | 2: A single regent, in the name of an infant ruler.<br /> | ||
| + | 3: A regency council, in the name of an infant ruler.<br /> | ||
| + | 4: A royal steward, as the actual heir has been missing for a long time.<br /> | ||
| + | 5: A chancellor, consort, or other senior court member, for a ruler who takes no interest in matters of state.<br /> | ||
| + | 6: The court wizard, the senior local representative of a rival mage guild to the one which was overthrown in Gartihann, who manipulates the monarch.<br /> | ||
| + | 7: Autonomous tribal chiefs run their own tribes with varying degrees of settlement or wildness; the High Monarch is essentially a figurehead.<br /> | ||
| + | 8: No-one much is in charge; individual clans mind their own business, and the title of monarch has all but withered away since the empire fell.<br /> | ||

| + | '''What is the status of the undead in Axalvo?''' | ||

| + | 3: Mindless undead are seen as equivalent to vermin; free-willed undead are seen as tragic.<br /> | ||
| + | 4: Mindless undead are seen as potential foot-soldiers for fiends and the like; free-willed undead exert secret political power.<br /> | ||
| + | 5: Small enclaves of undead mark battlefields and mass graves; such places are shunned as major hazards.<br /> | ||
| + | 6: Undead are generally rare; the appearance of large numbers of them is taken as a bad omen, provoking fears of a new flip.<br /> | ||
| + | 7: Undead are seen as divine punishment, with mindless undead being punishment on the living for failure to perform religious duties, and free-willed undead as being punished for their own misdeeds in life.<br /> | ||
| + | 8: Undead are rare except in legendary cursed locations, with specific tales explaining their presence.<br /> | ||
