elzarian mage~
Elzarion~
Elzarian looks you over searching for who knows what.
~
Elzarian is a strange looking man, tall, gangly, with extremely dry
brown skin.  He wears an outlandishly huge red rimmed hat with a
pointy tip, and a ridiculously large purple robe.  Few in Khaipur
understand why he is allowed to keep his little shop in such a prime
location like the Fey-Born Tower market since he deals in oddities
only.  All know few fey-worked items are sold or bought here, yet
his little shop continues to stay open.  Most believe the Nomads buy
in bulk from him for their strange rituals, but this has yet to be
proven.

Azhdeen~
Azhdeen carefully mixes a new batch of chemicals.
~
Azhdeen is an enormous muscular man, who is suppose to be burned on
half his body by the very chemicals he mixes.  Rumors are whispered
throughout the city this is the only reason Azhdeen attempts to perfect
the revitalizing Spring Tonic potion, to restore his physique to its
former glory.  Many more whisper that it was the BloodWatch Lord who
was the one who burned Azhdeen for offering aid to a vampire, a vampire
who, when mortal was Azhdeens' friend.  Don't stand between the two if
ever they meet again.

venkelos turtle~
Venkelos~
Venkelos is fretting about.
~
Venkelos, or the Turtle of Fey as he is occasionally called by his fellow
mages, is a mature gnome.  With small wire-rimmed glasses, he is forever
cataloging the ancient scrolls and staves that make their way into his
grand shop.  Known to be ever stubborn as he is curious, Venkelos is known
to spend years dechiphering scrolls that turn out to be mere love letters
from a long forgotten time.  Still, he is unyielding once he sets his mind
on something, truly he is a master of lore, and he indeed holds that very
post in the Fey-Wielders' Brotherhood.

Kiy~
Kiy grins with a knowing smile at you.
~
Standing a mere four and a half feet tall, this ancient looking woman
looks more like a pale raisin then a powerful sha`ir.  Still, her powers
are renowned throughout the lands of Nidus and fooling with her is not
something to be taken lightly.  It is said even the Taken pay heed not
to anger Kiy, though that would be hard indeed, for Kiy is also known to
be highly carefree.  Still, her knowing smile can sometimes be irritating,
for you know not why she smiles, or why her gen is forever cackling.

Versed in all forms of combat magic's, this Sha`ir Battle-Master has
adapted his gen for power and ingenuity.  One does not only face a
Sha`ir Battle Master, but also his Gen.  A Battle Master is mighty
indeed, for how else could one explain the existence of all those Fey
Wielding Taken.  Only a fool would attempt to enter the inner Chambers
of Fey by force, a fool indeed.

Very few apprentice's are as lucky as this one, for this young man is
apprenticed to the Mistress of Fey herself.  In exchange for such a grand
honor, the apprentice must make sure all visitors are comfortable here
while they learn to shape and mold the Fey.  Thus does the apprentice go
willingly to extremes to make sure you are happy here.

This gen is by far one of the most capricious of his kind, and quite

bargain if the conditions of servitude are high, the servitude of the

bargaining with a sha`ir.  However, once a deal is struck, almost all gens
become quite serious, for the relationship between a gen and a sha`ir is

Elzarian's Exotica~
One of the many little fey-shops surrounding the vaunted Fey-Born Tower,
this particular shop is probably the strangest.  All about you are the
strangest and the most rare items in all of Nidus.  Beside the arm of a
snake, and the leg of a dismembered eye, are also curious little eggs of
wyverns, and eggs merely marked 'Dragons of Lore'.  Even an odd human hand,
or dwarf head has been bottled and preserved for some of the odder rituals
performed by fey-less witch doctors.  Yet hidden on some of these shelves
beside the eyes of newt and the bat guano are some rare little treasures, if
you know what to look for.  Elzarian is both willing to sell you his so
called Exotica or buy some of yours, if you even knew you had any.

Curious Castings~
Upon entering you are quickly overwhelmed by a sweet musty scent, that of
ancient books and manuscripts.  The entirety of this shop is filled with
shelves upon shelves of scrolls, books, and numerous little diaries and
curious scribblings.  The age of some of these documents must surely date
back to before the Holy Wars, and yet these scrolls are all strewn about
carelessly upon racks of shelves.  Behind all this mess is an ancient little
man mumbling out loud about cataloging yet one more series of ancient texts.
Looking straight over the man's tiny wizened head you see the entire back
wall lined with staves and wands of every conceivable height, style, shape,
and material.  How anyone could ever find anything they needed in this shop
is even more amazing then actually seeing so many fey-worked staves and
wands in one place.  Of course, where else would such a collection be, but
at the foot of the Fey-Born Tower, where the Chambers of Fey are said to be
located and where every magician is said to gain their control over the Fey.

Apothecary Shoppe is known throughout Khaipur for the magical revitalizing
elixir known as Spring Tonic.  Other tonics, pills, potions, and balms of
health are also sold in some abundance here, so long as the Mistress of Fey
continues to permit Azhdeen to share the Necromantic secrets of prolonged

The small and faded wooden sign above this quaint little shop is quite
deceiving indeed.  A more appropriate name would be useless odds and ends. 
While some of the trinkets found in this store are in fact fey-worked, they
are no wonders of fey as the sign claims.  Keys, moldy foods, antique
furniture's, and some of the worst tasting drinks in all of Nidus make up
the wares in this so called Fey-shop.  The shriveled old woman running this
shop merely smiles and giggles at the disdain on your face for her wares. 
Almost a knowing smile, maybe this witch does sell something of value here,
how else does one explain this shop being allowed to stay and operate at the
foot of the Fey-Born Tower?  How else indeed.

into energies and powers useable by mere mortals.  No, not mere mortals, by

Lands Beyond~
Floating within the center of the chamber is the Lady Caliph of all
Sha`irs, known also as the Bringer of Gens, the FeyBride, and Keeper of the
Fey.  This sha`ir is someone to be inspired by, to be awed by, to lust
after, and especially to fear.  Numerous gens attend to her every whim and
desire, for even they have learned to respect the power at her command.  It
is here, within her strong guiding hands that all sha`irs learn coexists and
work with their gens to shape the mystic force of Nidus, the power of Fey. 
Go forth now, back into the dark torrent of the ^Crimson^Lust^, or descend
once more into the Lands Beyond to deal with the capricious gens, all in the
name of Fey.

Fey-Shop Market ~
The Fey-Born Tower looms above.  It is home to the Masters of the Mystic
Life-Force of Nidus, the Wielders of Fey.  Power pulsates from every stone,
almost strong enough to drown out the all-encompassing aura of peace that
the Cathedral radiates.  The inhabitants of the Tower are known to be
powerful and there is a chance to see and buy some of their creations while
here in the Fey-Shop Market.  Up the spiraling stairs is the entrance to the
Tower, while down the stairs take you back to New Thalos.

has been funneling upwards culminate here, focusing the Fey energy upon the
open space between each archway.  Thus is the chamber turned into The

has set into it thirteen chairs arranged in a semi-circle.  The center chair
is slightly more elevated then the others and appears to be more of a throne
then an actual chair.  A similar semi-circle of chairs is set against the
south end of the room, with the only difference being that the chairs are
about thirteen feet lower then those on the opposite side.  Here then is
where a would-be magician is accepted for training or rebuffed to the role
of a lowly sewer slave for even daring to consider themselves worthy to
become a Magician.  LOOK upon the FEY and speak the words out aloud and see

a necromancer, just in order to control the very deadly and powerful
life force of Nidus.  Speak then the words and know ye that you shall

Littered throughout the entire room are huge piles of blankets and

Mistress of Fey to appoint them each to their own particular master so that
they may begin their training in earnest.  They are quite content in the
meantime to merely learn and study what little Fey lore is made available to
them at this time, and to rough-house and bond with the other young men, for
almost all Mages begin their training at the age of 17, when puberty won't
interfere with the channeling of Fey energies.

Inside the quarters of one of the Fey-Master, you know that if you are
caught you will face the ultimate punishment, death.  Yet, the threat of
death just for a tiny peek inside the private quarters of a Fey-Master seems
well worth the risk.  As it is always said, Life is Fey, and Fey is
capricious, so ultimately you are highly disappointed with what you find
within the Fey-Master's quarters.  Nothing, nothing but a comfortable bed
and a few scattered personal belongings are to be seen, not a single book
with earth-shattering secrets or a single staff of power to be seen.  What a
waste of time, for the Fey-Master must not trust the prying eyes of the
apprentices, and for good reason it seems.  Wouldn't you agree?

made of pure Fey harnessed and changed into solid energy by the most
powerful Fey-Masters and helped by the most powerful gens, and this all at
the behest of the Mistress of Fey herself.  Entering into the Fey-Born Tower
is strictly forbidden, lest one is of the Brotherhood, or if one plans to
petition admittance into the Brotherhood of Fey-Wielders.  Make your choice,
enter and be subject to the ruling of the Fey-Born Council, or turn back, to

collection of ancient history.  Within these very books are suppose to be
the records of Janus's birth, and of all the Taken, and with that, the True
Names of the powers of Nidus.  With such knowledge one could lay claim to
the powers of the Taken, and rule over the world of Nidus.  However, if all
this is true, why hasn't anyone found those names yet?  Maybe they weren't
as thorough as they should of been, or as you will be?  Maybe.  The library
is separated into three sections, the legends and lore to the east, to the
west the histories of Nidus, and all available knowledge of the Fey to the

The Legends and Lore section, possibly the most popular section of the
entire library, is always full by both apprentices and by the Fey Masters. 
Both, apprentice and master, have dreams and fantasies of being the one to
uncover the location of some long forgotten artifact or place of power. 
This entire section is brimming with rumors and folklore now ancient by even
dwarven standards.  Still, the slight hope of uncovering just one of these
ancient relics of the past, when the Fey of Nidus was as yet untapped and
real weapons of power existed, drive even the wisest of the Fey-Wielder
brotherhood to spend hours upon hours locked away just reading ancient tomes
day after day for that hidden clue to the past.

Apprentice's Quarters~
Oddly enough, this room is extremely quiet compared to the ruckus
emanating from the other rooms.  Bathed in darkness, not a single candle nor
mage-globe lights the room.  Stepping in to get a closer look you see strewn
about the room are exhausted apprentices, all sprawled out trying to get
what little sleep they can get before their next session with their
Fey-Master .  These must be those apprentices that have met with the
Mistress of Fey and have been assigned to a Fey-Master to guide their
training, before they are finally allowed to tap the power that is the Fey. 
Be nice and don't wake them, just let them sleep.

A Hallway in the Tower~
Down the hallway, you walk cautiously for fear that someone may see you
sneaking about.  Only the Fey-Masters are allowed down this way, for the
personal quarters of all the Fey-Masters are the only things in the eastern
section of the Tower.  All apprentices have been warned not to venture down
this hallway, for if they are caught, the punishment for trespassing is
death.  Privacy is a staple of Fey-Wielders, and ware all those who would
encroach upon the privacy of any Fey-Master, for their mastery of the Fey is
mighty indeed, and their wrath is known to be even greater.  Continue on
then, if you dare, but know ye that you have been warned for the last time.

Fey-Master's Dormitory~
Here then, at the end of the eastern section of the Tower you find
yourself facing three closed oak doors.  The grand secrets of the Fey
Masters that they won't teach you yet may await inside, or maybe only death
awaits inside, if you are caught that is.  Looking closely about you can't
seem to spot any guard-runes or sigils protecting the doors from entry. 
Putting your ear up against each door, you convince yourself that all the
Fey-Masters are either in a session, in the library, or off on some business
in Khaipur.  Dare you enter and risk being caught, or are the secrets within
worth even the price of death?

Fey-Master's Quarters~
Foolish indeed you have been for ever daring to enter the private
chambers of one of the Fey-Masters.  Before you in all his grand and
glorious might stands Grendek, the Master of Battle Globes, and he is not
pleased.  You knew the price for trespassing, and now Grendek shall be the
one to be collecting the price for your audacity and most foolish arrogance.
Prepare for your final lesson in the use of Fey in battle, a lesson you
shall wish you had never learned.

Fey-Master's Quarters~
Slowly opening the door, you peek inside to discover a sleeping Fey
Master.  The room is bathed in a soft golden light from a mage-globe on the
night table, showering the entire contents of the room in an eerie light. 
From what you can see, no books or items of power can be readily seen.  Dare
you enter and risk waking your teacher, a powerful Fey-Master, just for the
hope of finding something of power inside?  Well, you have come this far
haven't you, whats a little further...

A Hallway in the Tower~
Sparks light the entire passageway as you get closer to the Learning
Grounds.  Within this section of the Tower the would-be Fey-Wielder learn
how to best apply their new found knowledge and skills with fey in both
creative and destructive forms.  It is here that all magicians must learn to
not just use the Fey, but to actually thrive in unison, as one with the Fey
for a chance to survive the dreaded ^Crimson^Lust^ that plagues this, oh so
harsh land of Nidus.  Southward then, into the Learning Grounds, or return
back north to the Tower Center.

Entrance to the Learning Grounds~
Entering the Learning Grounds is not recommended for any magician, lest
they be the bravest and the strongest, for deaths are common place within
the Grounds.  The entire southern section of the Fey-Born Tower has been
altered to reflect every terrain and condition currently known in the lands
of Nidus.  Personal duels and challenges occur here almost daily, and are
fully sanctioned by the very Fey-Masters, but ware for they are known and
quite fond of throwing in unforeseen obstacles, such as sneak attacks from
other apprentices, and Fey-worked areas, in order to add the element of the
unknown.  Enter then, but know ye that death may follow you in, and you may
never leave...

The Learning Grounds~
High above the billowing clouds, you suddenly find yourself on a steep
mountain side.  Boulders the size of rooms surround you, providing an
excellent place for an unseen assailant to lay in wait, and to look for the
most opportune moment in which to strike you down in.  The air up here is so
thin that you find yourself struggling for every breath of air.  Just then,
you hear the same labored breathing as your own just beyond a set of boulder
to the south, or was that just your imagination?

Into a sandstorm you trudge along, with the noon sun beating down upon
your weary shoulders, blistering your skin where-so-ever it finds it
exposed.  Parched from thirst, you don't know how much longer you can
continue on, for even your thoughts are drowned out from the ever constant
howling of the stinging sands upon your beaten body.  Yet, with every single
step you take, you know you near closer to your target, or is it that you
yourself are now the target?  Within the confines of this sandstorm, one
would never know, for a person could walk right beside someone and be only a
mere five feet away, and none would be the wiser.

Upon a tiny life-raft you find yourself, with only the endless sea to be
seen in every direction.  Adrift on a skiff, barely able to hold two, you
take comfort in the knowledge that the intimacy of the moment will not be
spoiled, for death is such a personal thing after all.  Here on this raft,
your victim will receive no S.  O.  S.  , no last appeal to the Taken, just
you and them, in a dark and ever final embrace, the coldest embrace, the
embrace of death.

Night falls over you as you step into a tropical jungle, into a dark
jungle in search of your prey.  This jungle however is home to so many wild
predators, where even you can become the one hunted, instead of the hunter. 
Swarms of insects continuously bite and harass you while the sounds of the
jungles fill your ears.  A low and guttural growl suddenly emanates from a
dark shadow in a tree branch directly above you, your prey perhaps?  Or
maybe you're the prey now,...  Perhaps....

Alone in the darkness of the deepest sea, here the only death you shall
know is the one you make for yourself.  Not even the feared ruler of the
sea, the gargantuan Leviathan, ventures so far down in the ocean floor.  The
pressure starts to rise as your control over the Fey begins to wane, for so
deep along the ocean bottom have you ventured.  Staying here any longer
would be folly, for without the protection of your most precious Fey, the
sheer pressure of the ocean would crush the very life from you in but an
instant.

On a busy thoroughfare, you find yourself moving through a throng of
people in search of your elusive prey.  With so many people crowding the
streets, you just can't be sure if your prey is even here, and if they are,
whether they are lurking in the crowd waiting to strike, or moving with the
throng of people to a safer battleground.  Your target could be anywhere,
here or there.  Best to keep moving along lest you are caught off guard, no
need to hurt the innocent, is there?

The biting cold of the snow causes even your Fey-protected body to
shiver.  Blinded by the sheer starkness of the pure white sea of snow, your
breath is crystallized the moment it leaves the warm safety of your lungs. 
Here in the open, even you are an easy target, much like that wholly mammoth
searching for food in this nature made hell, the hell of the frozen tundra.

Inside the privacy of an abandoned room, you prepare to make your stand. 
There are no places to hide in here, only the air between you and your foe
stands in your way.  The final stand will be made here, with no tricks, no
hidden surprises, just you and your target, skill against skill.  Prepare
yourself, for only one person will walk away from here alive, the other will
be paying a quick visit to the Angel of Death.  Die then.

In the open air, among the clouds and the care free birds.  Far in the
distance you can see a white dragon out on the hunt for live stock, or
humans, whatever it may prefer today.  Out in the open, away from the Fey
that you rely upon to create the spells and affects you shall use in combat.
Of course, this also means that your opponent will be unable to use their
Fey-born powers to their fullest potential also...  Who would need them
more, you or your opponent, only time will tell.
