Freeport is also a pretty neutral faction towards most race/class combos except iksar. I think Freeport would be great, as it allows them to be besieged on every side making it harder. Being a discord city, they could actually leave a lot of the non-essential npc factions the same and let players figure out where they can and cannot go. Even in classic EQ, many players on good terms with most of the city would still be attacked in the slums where the necro/sk guilds are found. Same principle should apply.

I say dubious faction only for those who would normally be ready to attack. Player faction would be completely classic otherwise and would not affect their faction with other cities except with vendors, so if they were willing to risk it, they could complete quests in any city permitted their class and alignment naturally allows it.

This also means players of the other 2 teams could still use freeport if they normally had the faction and were willing to risk it.
All good points. Neriak does have Foreign Quarter though =)
