Ta'Illistim uses the town defense systems as detailed below.

Crystal Defense

Magical and mobile crystals that are remotely controlled from control towers in Ta'Illistim. Usable only by elves and citizens of Ta'Illistim or those in groups led by citizens. Must be activated by a GameMaster in order to be used by player characters. Training in specific elemental lores will improve your ability to use the crystal defense system when it is attuned to the same lores. The summoned crystal will be able to execute a certain number of attacks before the infused mana within it is expended; after that, further attacks will drain 30 mana per attack from the user. Once the user's mana is exhausted, the crystal will disappear.

  • INFUSE <# of mana> - Prior to use, the crystals must be charged with mana. This can be done either from the tower entry or from the crystal summoning chamber.
  • LOOK ORB at the top of the tower to reveal how much charge it has.
  • RUB ORB to cycle through elemental attunements: earth, fire, ice, air.
  • TOUCH ORB to summon a crystal, which will spawn outside the Ta'Illistim gates.
  • TELL CRYSTAL TO ATTACK <creature>
  • TELL CRYSTAL TO LOOK
  • TELL CRYSTAL TO GO <direction>
  • TELL CRYSTAL TO LEAVE - dismisses the crystal.

If you exit the summoning chamber, you will lose control of the crystal.
