	Bandits are a ubiquitous problem across the Empire, but the magistrates deal with them where they can. As a result, they rarely grow to the point where they threaten an entire region. A lawless region is infested with large bandit groups. Lawlessness is a problem for everyone - the threat of banditry is a terrible danger for any law-abiding citizen in the territory who cannot defend themselves from the bandits' depredations. It also impacts the [[Imperial treasury]] - the taxation provided by a territory does not increase naturally while any region remains lawless. That reflects the impact thieves, bandits, and pirates have on local businesses and resources, as well as the tendency of more established criminal groups to attack tax collectors directly. At present, only Morajasse of [[Feroz]] has this quality.		Bandits are a ubiquitous problem across the Empire, but the magistrates deal with them where they can.

			When the garrison of the [[Sarangrave#Tower of the Skink\|Tower of the Skink]] broke after the Winter Solstice 387YE, they were not destroyed. Instead, they fled across the territory and have gone to ground in the regions, launching attacks at burgeoning settlements. Any commission built in Sarangrave has its labour costs increased by a fifth for each region under Imperial control with the quality. At present, Turan Flats, Kroll, and the Whisperwood of [[Sarangrave]] have this quality.

	The region has been abandoned by those who once lived there. As a result of the lack of people and the stubborn spirit amongst those who do still reside here, no mandate enacted by the Imperial Synod will affect a territory with an abandoned region. There are still people living in the region, but there are far fewer inhabitants remaining than once called this bustling territory their home. The one positive is that there are countless abandoned farms, mines, businesses and likewise scattered across the territory. As a result, any character of the correct nation who chooses to move their personal resource to a territory with a region that is abandoned does not have to pay the standard fee of two crowns. At present, Afarjasse, Cazar Straits~~, Fontargenta~~, Morajasse, and Oranseri of [[Feroz]] have this quality.		The region has been abandoned by those who once lived there.
