==Foreigners/Barbarians==
Those who are non-Draji have no rights in Draj.  They are like beasts to be used and abused as the one who captures them sees fit.  A Foreigner with some value may be sold at a marketplace by a noble, but in doing so they are granted the status of a slave.  Otherwise, they are considered nothing but worthless beasts of burden or as sacrificial victims.  The only free Foreigner in Draj is one who is strong enough to protect himself, or who has the protection of one of the Draji houses.  A foreigner who seeks to find work in Draj is in for a nasty surprise, as work cannot be bought or sold -- the best outcome in such situations is slavery, the worst ... a short brutal lifetime tending the mudflat fields of Draj beneath the sting of a whip.

===The Elven Markets===
The Elven Markets just inside entrance to Draj are a notable exception.  This is where caravans from other city states would hawk their goods, as well as the nomadic elves.  Foreigners are more or less left alone as long as they don't make a scene or try to go much futher into the city.
