Fun Facts
There is currently an active campaign promoting the change of the cleaners name from "mothers rage" to "mentors guidance" . the people are torn because on one hand mothers rage has been the name of there beloved magical water for generations, on the other "mentors Guidance" Does not discriminate against those who have lost their mothers or may not have one, and guidance is a more friendly and inviting word then rage (this should help sales globally)
Bards and Barbarians are treated with suspicion because of their incapability to be lawful. They are still allowed but one better hope they are neutral if they want to live without to much struggle.
