Certas [Private] "Don't mean to belabor the topic, but for another example, I just analyzed my black ora weapon. "You immediately sense that this is a Pure Black Ora Weapon known as an Unholy Weapon. Aside from some other fun little details that you'll need to learn on your own, the following information might be useful: This item is a Greater/Major Black Ora weapon, aka Tier 3 of 3. Gluttons for punishment can poke, wave, raise, and thouch the kris. Additionally, attend allows for a teleporting ability."

'''Rakshakvana''' is a [[giantman]] [[sorcerer]] and a devout follower of [[Tonis]]. His base of operations is within Solhaven, and he belongs to a branch one of the most powerful criminal underworld groups in Vornavis, known as the Pegasi, associated with the Temple of Tonis in [[Solhaven]]. The Pegasi are smugglers and couriers used by many criminal elements in Solhaven and Vornavis. Anything from Luukosian Deathwort to the forbidden tomes of Ta'Illistim can be acquired through them, for a price.

He developed his magical skills naturally, an a very young age, during his upbringing within the "guild" and showed promising skill in both the elementalism of wizards and the spiritualism of clerics. Feeling a natural attraction to sorcery, he began studying with help from the Temple of Tonis and his adopted family.

== '''History''' ==

Rakshakvana's mother, a chief officer on of one of the many smuggling ships owned by the criminal underground and manned by the Pegasi, was killed a year after his birth in a gang dispute. The guild takes good care of its own, and he wanted for nothing. The youth are regarded as manifestations of Tonis and are treated well, although his training in the ways of smuggling began early, accompanying his mentors, a pair of human "merchants" to Ta'Nalfein and back. This regular work went on for his entire childhood and adolescence. For this reason he is very familiar with the culture of [[Ta'Nalfein]], and is comfortable around other races, especially Elves and Gnomes, many of whom he has helped smuggle out of the Turamzzyrian Empire in order to help them escape the Church of Koars' "justice" for one or another trumped up charge.

== '''Appearance''' ==

You see Rakshakvana the Sorcerer.

He appears to be a Giantman.

He is very tall and has a lithesome, nimble build. He appears to be very young. He has brooding emerald green eyes and pale tan sand-hued skin. He has long, silky bourbon brown hair framing his face in a disheveled, carefree style. He has a well-defined, oblong face and thin, lithely muscled arms and wrists.

He is wearing a hooded gold soutached burnoose, an iron-buckled leather baldric with an ancient witchwood runestaff secured to it, a warped driftwood scabbard, a frayed leather harness, some sun-tooled yellow double leathers inlaid with gold, a simple blued steel wristchain, a pair of vaalin-sigiled silk gloves, a gold leather pegasi-buckled belt, a lapis studded damask pouch, a rust-swept grappling iron looped with sturdy wheat-colored rope, some gold cotton pants patched with squares of suede and a pair of gold leather boots fastened with mithril buckles.

An '''Arkati box''' is a gnomish contraption resembling a music box. When a figurine of the [[Arkati]] (available through the treasure system as a type of jewelry) is inserted, the box can be activated to play a small scene featuring the respective deity.

Off-the-shelf Arkati boxes are locked to one of three types, accepting only figurines for [[Pantheon of Liabo|Liabo]], [[Pantheon of Lornon|Lornon]], or [[Pantheon of Neutrality|Neutral]]/[[Lesser Spirit]]s. Boxes may be further unlocked for fancier messaging and/or multiple pantheons. Raffled Tier 3 Arkati boxes offer special rewards when using a figurine for the deity that the user is [[convert]]ed to.

== Description ==

Example: a smooth oak case

'''SHOW''': The lid of this oak case has been exquisitely painted, depicting dramatic colorful scenery from one corner to the other. Two of the four sides are adorned with large, rounded enamel moons, one faintly luminescent, while the other is tinted in hazy dark hues. A half-moon, painted in muted yellow tones, is depicted on a third side. In elegant script, the words "Lornon" and "Liabo" have been inked beneath each of the orbs, while no lettering exists beneath the half-moon. The Liabo moon is completely flush with the side of the case.

'''ANALYZE''': This oak case (also known as an Arkati Box) can have either a short or a long description, but cannot support a show, as one already exists. It must also remain some kind of container that would have a lid/top. The case is currently at Tier 2 and has the following verbs available: PUSH, POKE, TOUCH, TURN, RUB, CLEAN, GAZE, OPEN, CLOSE, LOOK and PUT. Though the case may not be unlocked further, if you win a raffle version, you could opt to have your current case adjusted to the raffle tier. Your case is aligned to: Liabo. This was first released at Ebon Gate 2014 in Go Figure, owned by Bisha.

== Messaging ==

Tier 2 messaging:

{| class="wikitable sortable"
|-
!Arkati!!Messaging
|-
|Cholen
|Standing center stage is a young male miniature, expertly juggling a trio of brightly colored balls. The miniature's hair has been painted gold, and intricate patterns have been sewn onto his patchwork cape. A tiny wooden lute hangs over his shoulder. After a slow rotation, the platform lowers into the case, and the lid snaps closed.
|-
|Eonak
Standing before a glowing iron forge, a brawny dwarven sculpture grips an enormous hammer raised above a golden anvil. A sheet of steel, painted bright crimson to resemble extreme heat, has been placed atop the anvil and awaits a molding blow from the hammer's strike. The stage rotates as it descends into the case, giving a full glimpse of the dwarf's impressive muscular build.
|-
|Imaera
|A sylvan woman sculpture appears, kneeling upon a bed of soil with arms raised upward, her hands cupping a single, half-open seed. Twining vines cover the stage, and as it rotates, a colorful array of foliage and blossoms falls lazily from her robe of flowers and leaves. A doe figurine emerges from the foliage just as the platform descends.
|-
|Ivas
|A curvaceous female sculpture emerges, lying languidly on the stage. Her arm is draped suggestively across a gown of vivid scarlet sequins. Wisps of gauzy green fabric shift and unfurl around the stage, the airy appendages twirling along with the platform's movement. After three rotations, the platform descends into the box and the lid snaps closed.
|-
|Jastev
|A pale-skinned male figure stands proudly before an artist's easel, the tip of his black brush pressed firmly against a colorful painting held within its wooden frame. His gaze is directed toward a crystal ball clutched tightly in his other hand, a look of tortured grief painted upon his ageless face. The stage descends into the case just before the lid snaps shut.
|-
|Kai
|Standing majestically atop a tall dais, a young male sculpture wields a massive felwood spear tipped with gleaming adamantine, towering over the confines of the case. As if in preparation for the next opponent, his empty fist is clenched tightly, and his well-defined, muscular frame is positioned in a battle-ready stance. A single rotation of the dais lowers the platform into the case.
|-
|Koar
|Situated in front of a magnificent mountainous backdrop is a carved throne covered in the finest pure white silk. A huge male effigy appears to be asleep on the seat, an extravagant gold crown perched regally atop his head. The backdrop begins to vibrate and shake, and one of the effigy's eyes blinks open just as the stage disappears into the case.
|-
|Lorminstra
|A dark-haired female sculpture, clad in a robe of white-on-black jacquard, ascends the stage. Her smooth robes drip over the edge, the garment trailing towards the tall ebon gate backdrop. Held in her extended hand, a metal ring full of gold keys begins to jangle, causing the platform to lower slowly into the case.
|-
|Marlu
|Hunched over a corpse replica is a grotesquely carved sculpture with glistening black skin and leathery wings, its barbed tentacles wrapped tightly around the corpse's body. Dangling from its neck, an onyx, six-tentacled star set inside a silver circle sways back and forth in an almost hypnotizing manner. With one final rotation of the stage, the lid snaps shut.
|-
|Oleani
|As the stage rises, a female statuette with exquisitely painted features stands with hands cupped at her waist. Perched at her side is a plush red heart with a budding flower emerging through the soft material. Two interlocked gold rings and a tiny swaddled infant carving are cradled delicately in her open hands. The stage turns a full rotation and lowers into the case.
|-
|Phoen
|A male sculpture is nestled amidst a circle of youthful-looking figurines, a serene expression painted upon his face. Set into the case lid's interior, a mirror reflects available ambient light and creates a soft glow upon the stage area. A costume of brilliant gold adorns the sculpture's form, and his golden hair, shining beneath the stage's glow, radiates across the platform as it rotates and descends into the box.
|-
|Ronan
|Tucked beneath a wool blanket, a carved onyx body lies asleep on a simple cot with a gaunt male sculpture dressed in black at the bedside. A silver-edged black steel sword hangs from his thick belt, and a mysterious smile has been expertly painted upon his lips. Hanging from the lid, clouds of raw cotton begin to sway back and forth, disappearing once the lid snaps shut.
|-
|Zelia
|A thick mist swirls along the platform, slowly dissipating to reveal an elaborate chariot pulled by grey stallion figures. A female statue with wild green eyes and wind-tossed silver hair stands before the carriage, one hand on the reins, and the other on her silver breastplate. The moons on the chest begin to flicker sporadically as the stage descends, and the lid snaps shut.
