			==Placement in [[the Core]]==
			As a [[dread alternative]] to the [[canon]] placement of [[the Shadow Rift]] as an open gash in the surface of the Core, the Ustalav Gazetteer places the domain atop the Shadow Rift, with certain [[cavern]]s leading down into the Rift.

			==Differences from Golarion's Ustalav==
			Ustalav on Golarion is a much larger nation than the domain of the same in the [[Land of Mists]]. Ustalav in Ravenloft is much smaller, small enough to cover the Shadow Rift but no further. While Golarion's Ustalav boasts thirteen [[region]]s, Ustalav in the Land of Mists has only 8. Moreover, in the Land of Mists, the religious upheaval caused by the death of [https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Aroden Aroden] (known as [[the Forgotten God]] in Ravenloft) resulted in an almost complete displacement of Ustalav's native religions by faiths from the Land of Mists (most notably the [[Church of the Lawgiver]], but also [[the Eternal Order]], [[Hala]], and [[Ezra]]).<ref>QtR p. 217, 224-225</ref> [[Cleric]] [[NPC]]s and other religious devotees may, unlike their Golarion counterparts, thereby belong to one of Ravenloft's faiths.

			Although many [[event]]s in Ravenloft Ustalav's [[history]] mirror those in Golarion Ustalav's history, the dates and exact details of Ravenloft Ustalav's history is often quite muddled and inconsistent.<ref>QtR p. 215</ref> This is due to the nature of the demiplane in general and the [[curse]] of Ustalav's [[darklord]] in specific. [[James Weylan]], a driven [[historian]] and leader of Ravenloft's [[Pathfinder Society]], wishes to catalog the history and [[geography]] of the world, but the fickle Land of Mists torments him with its incoherent past.<ref>QtR p. 241</ref>
