I've been here a few weeks, and this isn't the first time I've found myself in the position of being an outsider. So, I just have to ask. What's your experience with the locals and their treatment of us rift-farers?

Eh, they're not too bad--your regular pack of do-gooders, scoundrels, and outright eccentrics. Don't act like a bilgebrain and you should get on with them all right.

They can be nice. However, that is my experience with them. As long as you are nice to them, they'll be nice to you back.

Hey, welcome in.

Being a riftfarer isn't so bad. I've never had anyone treat me any differently, at least. We're just people living here and trying to make it, too. I've maybe got a scowl from a cranky old lady here and there, but yeah.

As far as I know, though. Riftfarers have been showing up in this world for years now.

I won't sugar cover it. The locals are fine, for the most part. The Armadas see us all as pawns. We're just pieces on their boards, and they see no problem in shoving us around if they decide that's "what's best".

Almost all of them have been pretty nice to me. There's some tribes that are a bit...different, but I don't think I've ever noticed them treating me different because I was a rift-farer. They just treated me different because I wasn't from their island.

It just kind of depends on where you go and how Riftfarers have treated people in the past.

So I feel like it's just like anywhere else.

Pretty neutral. I don't have issues with the locals, usually. Have you? Anyone I should know about to avoid?
