  • A ringed terra with almost four times Earth's mass. Its gravity and its moderate temperature would be bearable for humans but the composition of its atmosphere, which contains almost exclusively CO2 and NO2, would require special equipment to survive on this planet. When the long life of a Ferronian is about to come to an end, especially if he has a high position in society, he will usually give birth to a clone of himself and invest his title as well as his belongings to this "new" self.
  • Ferrol was a Spanish naval station in northwestern Spain. Hornblower was imprisoned here for two years after his capture by the Spanish. The Ferrol battery was situated on the north point of the Bay of Ferrol with the town of Ferrol to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west, the town of Corunna (Spanish: A Coruña) to the southwest across the Bays of Betanzos and Coruña. Offshore was the reef marked on the charts as Dientes del Diablo, or the Devil's Teeth.

  • Will warp main-job Summoners to Cloister of Tremors if traded the Mini Tuning Fork of Earth while Trial Size Trial by Earth is open. Most SMNs never complete this quest so that a permanent warp to Cloister of Tremors is available. He will also provide a new mini fork at any time if the old one was dropped.

abstract
  • Ferrol was a Spanish naval station in northwestern Spain. Hornblower was imprisoned here for two years after his capture by the Spanish. The Ferrol battery was situated on the north point of the Bay of Ferrol with the town of Ferrol to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west, the town of Corunna (Spanish: A Coruña) to the southwest across the Bays of Betanzos and Coruña. Offshore was the reef marked on the charts as Dientes del Diablo, or the Devil's Teeth. As midshipman and acting lieutenant, Hornblower berthed with other midshipmen and warrant officers. During his period of imprisonment, Hornblower received word that he had been promoted to lieutenant in absentia, at which time he was moved to the officers quarters and given certain additional liberties. He gives his limited parole for 2 hours a day so he could explore the town and countryside. When he observes a Spanish ship chased on to the reef by a British ship he organises a boat and rescues some of the crew. Swept out to sea they are picked up by HMS Syrtis, but as Hornblower was still under parole, he asks to be returned to Ferrol via A Coruna. The Spanish authorities, impressed by his bravery, granted his release from prison.
  • A ringed terra with almost four times Earth's mass. Its gravity and its moderate temperature would be bearable for humans but the composition of its atmosphere, which contains almost exclusively CO2 and NO2, would require special equipment to survive on this planet. The planet's inhabitants,who call themselves Ferronians, have adapted quite well to this environment and have developed a remarkable civilization. They are specialized in nanotechnology and use microscopic machines to keep the atmosphere, the oceans and the soil of their planet free from pollution. They also tripled their lifespans and eliminated most diseases by implanting medical nanomachines into their cells. Ferronians have three different types of chromosome configuration, but they do not display any gender dimorphism. They are able to reproduce sexually and asexually. While the process of sexual reproduction works in similar a way to ours the asexual reproduction enables Ferronians to procreate without partner and create identical clones of themselves. To stabilize the growth of their civilization they have strict birth control laws. When the long life of a Ferronian is about to come to an end, especially if he has a high position in society, he will usually give birth to a clone of himself and invest his title as well as his belongings to this "new" self. Because of the prosperous and stable life they lead on Ferrol they have never had interest in space travel, although they have thousands of artificial satellites orbiting the planet and monitoring every inch of it.
