Ants in the viridian chaff, the farmers sap the last drops of pristine moisture out of the salt-spangled earth.
Joppa is one of the villages that the players can start the game in. It is the only starting village that is a static location between each save, and not procedurally generated, unlike the four random village starts. Because of this, the game recommends it as a starting location for new players. It contains two unique quests and a secret entrance to Red Rock via the waterlogged tunnel in the upper left salt water pond. On the upper right corner, there will always be a statue of the sultan Resheph. The village's faction is the villagers of Joppa.
Important NPCS
- Elder Irudad is the mayor of the village, and will teach Harvestry upon water ritual along with Joppa's signature dish, Apple Matz.
- Argyve is a quest giver and tinker. Notably, Argyve's quests are the entryway into the Main Questline. He begins by giving the player the Fetch Argyve a Knickknack quest, followed by Fetch Argyve Another Knickknack, Weirdwire Conduit.. Eureka! and ending his quests with A Canticle for Barathrum. He will also repair the player's items and recharge cells before entering Grit Gate, as well as be a restocking merchant who will trade scrap and data disks.
- Mehmet is a legendary watervine farmer, who will give the player the optional What's Eating the Watervine? quest. You can also perform the water ritual with him, and he will teach Harvestry along with Joppa's signature dish, Apple Matz.
- Tam, dromad merchant is a dromad merchant who stocks low-tier equipment.
- Nima Ruda is an apothecary who stocks medicinal items like bandages, witchwood bark, and yuckwheat stems.
- Warden Yrame is the village's warden, and the player can perform the water ritual with her to gain reputation with both the Fellowship of Wardens and Villagers of Joppa.
- watervine farmer and Mechanimist convert is a quest giver who can give the player the optional quest O Glorious Shekhinah!. Because the watervine farmer and Mechanimist convert is a member of the Mechanimists faction, and Argyve is a member of the Barathrumites, Argyve will be hostile to them if they wander into his line of sight. Generally, Argyve will kill the convert if this occurs, making O Glorious Shekhinah! inaccessible if the player has not already started it.
- Ctesiphus is a unique ray cat. When pet, the player will begin to glow, conferring the phosphorescent effect for a short time.
Upon Arrival
On (random date), you arrive at the oasis-hamlet of Joppa, along the far rim of Moghra'yi, the Great Salt Desert.
Around you, moisture farmers tend to groves of viridian watervine. There are huts wrought from rock salt and brinestalk.
On the horizon, Qud's jungles strangle chrome steeples and rusted archways to the earth. Further and beyond, the fabled Spindle rises above the fray and pierces the cloud-ribboned sky.

Graveyard
One screen north of Joppa lies a graveyard full of randomly generated tombstones of random people who died and their cause of death. There is also a randomly generated sultan statue that will always grant a secret that provides the location of that sultan's historic site.
Millstone
In the north west corner of Joppa, there lies a millstone for public use. It runs on the mechanical power provided by the water wheel.
When interacted with, the millstone acts as a pseudo chest. If the right food item is placed inside, the mill will grind it into its preserved form. It takes one turn for the food to be milled. This mill is considered open to the public, so the villagers will not become angered if the player takes from the millstone. If it is disconnected to the wooden mechanisms and the water wheel, it will no longer grind.[1][2]
