Whitestand is a city of about 1,000 inhabitants, most of which are sailors, dock workers, and merchant traders. There are no laws on alcohol but there is a strong enforcement on violence. Crime is rare due to the Lady Casitia Set who does not have patience for theft or violence, and enforces it aggressively with extensive imprisonment or even public execution. As tight as Lady Casitia tries to keep crime, Whitestrand unfortunately attracts organized crime due to the valuable goods moving through it to and from the mainland.
The town is very close nit and watches out for each other, which also brings out the gossip and rumors.
Whitestrand has a regular 60 DOJ officers on duty but can muster 250 in the case of an attack. In addition, the people of the town would not hesitate to fight if it means protecting their town.
