Ishnail's base of operations can be found on the East side of [[Rogueport]]. Under his influence, the East side is far less secure than the West. It is unkempt, dirty, and serves as a hiding place for many bandits. His guard [[Gus]] even demands money for entering the further part of the East side. The West side is, on the contrary, rather secure and clean.
