==Trivia==
*Whitecliff is loosely based off of the British city of Dover, which is famous for its White Cliffs of Dover. Its geographic position on the coast of a peninsula in the southeast of Gristol is similar to Dover, which is also situated in the extreme southeast of Britain. It may also be based off of Canterbury, a city also located in the Southeast of England and the home of the Archbishop of Canterbury, the leader of the Church of England.
*At the right time of year, there are whales in the waters around Whitecliff.
**Corvo Attano and Geoff Curnow saw them on their voyage around the Empire of the Isles before the events of Dishonored. Curnow found this strange as it was too early in the year for them to be there.
*Overseer John Breton and High Overseer Benjamin Holger were both killed here, by a spear and knife respectively.Notable Clergy: Overseer John BretonNotable Clergy: High Overseer Benjamin Holger
