Escadore dominates the entrance to the Great Lakes of Southern Ruencia. The city state is politically neutral to the affairs of Trynser, Pengaldia, Thissaly, or any other nation, with the exception of a particular wariness towards Trazepi, across the channel. Escadore demands a tribute for passage through the channel to the Great Lakes to the north. The city-state's navy is adequate to compel compliance for anything less than a battle fleet. In addition, the navy is effective in battling raiders and pirates. The city-state controls a large outside territory, on which different fabrics are grown, notably cotton.
The city-state is ruled by the mysterious Five Sisters Dreaming, of whom little is known. What is known is that there are five personas, each representing one of the five. Whether they are exceptionally long-lived individuals or regularly replaced, the Five Sisters have ruled Escadore for over a thousand years.
The seas around Escadore are filled with shrimp, which feature strongly on the Escadoran menu. Unfortunately, there are few means of transporting them fresh, so it remains a local delecacy.
