he people of Verbobonc are friendly, but cautious. Most feel that a stranger could as easily slice your throat as look at you. They fear demons most of all, since such creatures have visited and left their marks. Dozens of evil cults remain too, lurking just below the surface of daily life. The folk of Verbobonc channel their caution into a diligent work ethic.
Though independent, the entire viscounty is a bishopric devoted to St. Cuthbert and follows the Archclericy of Veluna. Adventurers – most well-meaning, but all unpredictable and occasionally destructive – make up an unusually high percentage of Verbobonc's armed population.
