The city and surrounding countryside are the birth place of the trade in Bloodmoon fruit prior to the arrival of the civilized kingdoms of Melodia, Shadovar and later D'Hara. Though still used to a limited degree by the local peasants as a medicine and recreational intoxicant it has largely been forgotten.

Situated as it is on an island in the center of Dwilight, Port Raviel, and her sister city of Port Nebel, promise to have bright and rich futures as nexus points for the major trading lanes of both continents. This glorious future is also reflected in the city's past, for just as Port Raviel is now the capital of D'Hara, it was once the capital city of the realm of Melodia. Though the commoners may have long forgotten the intricacies of their city's long history, it is still reflected in the city's architecture, as numerous buildings still stand and continue to be used by the city's inhabitants.

Known primarily for its trade, Port Raviel also has a number of craftsmen who manufacture a wide range of items from the numerous trade resources that flow through the city daily. By far the largest of these trades are the city's ship works. Famous for crafting every type of ship imaginable, from short range fishing vessels to deep sea traders (not to mention the occasional warship), the city's ships are sailed far and wide through out all of Dwilight. Other large trades include stone carving, the crafting of various types of clothing (both high and low end), fishing supplies (ranging from hooks and line to large nets and rigging), and numerous types of artwork (painting and sculpture has been growing quite abundant in recent years).
