Shield Cape

ZHEKCROM: /* Additional Information */ There are no "guild tricks" that incorporate shields, removed.

The '''Shield Cape''' was released at the August 2019 run of [[Duskruin Arena]] in the [[BVShop:Shield Thyself|Shield Thyself shop]] by [[User:GS4-THANDIWE|GameMaster Thandiwe]]. A Shield Cape is a new outerwear garment that is attached to the left wrist by a large bangle of some kind, it is drawn across the left arm and shoulder before dipping down the back (it is Aelotoi friendly after all) and hugs the right ribcage before being pinned across the chest at the left shoulder by a large brooch of some kind. Shield Capes, once unlocked, provide a chance to block an incoming physical or magical attack. This percentage increases with each tier. The bangle and brooch can be removed, replaced, and customized.

|analyze= A multi-hued parrot feather cape is part of the Shield Cape Collection, which was purchased at Duskruin in the shop "Shield Thyself". It is a passive defense item that has a chance to block an incoming blow. The chance increases with each tier that is unlocked. If the wearer has no weapons in his hands, no shield/runesetaff, or is using a bow/crossbow, then he gets the full benefit of the cape. Otherwise the chance is halved.

Currently, a multi-hued parrot feather cape is 5 out of 5 tiers, which provides a 5% chance to block an incoming blow. It also has access to the following verbs: attend, bow, close, cover, flip, hug, nudge, open, pinch, pull (removes brooch), push (adds brooch), snuggle, remove, rub, tap, tilt, turn (removes bangle), twist (adds bangle), wear

The Auto-closure feature has been unlocked.

Brooch Data: (Upgraded Brooch) A metallic quintuple-ringed brooch inset with vari-colored cabochons can be changed by using PULL to remove the brooch and PUSH to add a new one. Please note, only specialized brooches will work. Once your brooch is upgraded from the default piece, it unlocks a 50% chance to retain a charge within it for each successful block. When the brooch reaches 10 charges, it automatically flares and absorbs all of the charges.

Bangle Data: (Upgraded Bangle - Flare Type - Lightning) An abalone shell-inlaid bangle can be changed by using TURN to remove the bangle and TWIST to add a new one. Please note, only specialized bangles will work. Once your bangle is upgraded from the default piece, it provides an additional 25% chance to absorb a charge. It will not provide this additional percentage chance if the brooch is not upgraded. Additionally, bangles can have special unlocks to change the flare type.
There are currently 4 charges stored in this parrot feather cape.

You may alter a multi-hued parrot feather cape freely providing it does not contradict the messaging. The cape can never be a jacket, a longcoat, a coat, a robe, or any similar nouns based on its design. Nor will it ever have a hood. This garment will attach at the left wrist by an abalone shell-inlaid bangle, slide over the arm and across the left shoulder. It will then dip down the back (under wings for the Aelotoi), under the right arm, and can be pulled across the chest so that it is pinned at the left shoulder with a metallic quintuple-ringed brooch inset with vari-colored cabochons.

You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the parrot feather cape for you or deepen its pockets.

Crackling and flashing, a decorative holly wreath clasp encircled by carnelians attached to the left shoulder of your red tartan wool cape suddenly explodes with a brilliant flash of blue energy that quickly encompasses a gremlock!

... 20 points of damage!
Blow connects right below right eye!
The gremlock is stunned!</div>
==Additional Information==
This cape does not require any specialized [[skill]]s to function. It is a separate chance to block from [[block]]. The cloak can block magical bolt spells and melee attacks. This does not count as a shield for any combat maneuvers or spells.

Energy Wings

2026-09-01T04:15:13Z

ZHEKCROM:

<table><tr valign="top"><td>
'''Energy Wings''' come in two different versions: [[#Light Wings|light]] and [[#Dark Wings|dark]]. They provide mechanical benefits based on their attunement, and they can be unlocked twice. Energy Wings are pin-worn and appear in the unique feature line. They also have fluff messaging related to their attunement. When worn, they replace the unique feature line with:

:''He has a pair of luminous wings with gilt-hued specks of light.''

This appearance varies depending on how the wings are customized and is phrased identically for both Light and Dark wings.

[[Aelotoi]] will have their wing description and trait replaced instead of their unique feature line.

Energy Wings debuted at the February 2026 [[Duskruin]] event. They were designed by GM Kenstrom and coded by GM Mestys. Both wings and unlock certificates are sold in [[BVShop:Pinions and Pulse|Pinions and Pulse]].

:<h3>Tier 1</h3>
:At Tier 1, Light Wings have access to the offensive Radiant Pulse and defensive Luminous Flight abilities. They also have four fluff verbs for messaging.

:'''Radiant Pulse:''' Wings flex and fire a focused beam of light at your target! SMR attack, plasma damage, and stun effect. 1 minute cooldown. SMR strength increases with each Tier! Activated via {{boldmono|TURN}}.

:'''Luminous Flight:''' Temporary flight, ignoring height restrictions for attacks. Last 30 seconds with a 90 second cooldown. While active, grants +5% evade chance per Tier. Activated via {{boldmono|TAP}}. This ability stumbles you out from hiding on activation, and has a 3 second cast round time, effectively only offering 27 seconds of height-free combat.
:<h4>Analyze</hr>
<pre{{log2}}>You analyze the wing-shaped pin and sense that the creator has provided the following information:
The wing-shaped pin may be freely altered, but it must adhere to its energy setting. When worn, the pin will cause wings to emerge from its bearer's back as a temporary unique feature line, or temporarily replace the wings features for Aelotoi. These features may be customized, but the wings will always be feathered, and should also reflect the energy setting of the pin. You may TOUCH the pin to toggle the feature-changing behavior.

Energy Setting: Light
Custom Wings Description: luminous
Custom Wings Quirk: with gilt-hued specks of light
Feature Line Toggle: OFF

==Additional Information==
The success formula for these is only based on your level and the tier of the item. Standard enhancive limits apply. All of the offensive abilities are SMR.

All the cooldowns kick in on activation. The 90-second cooldown starts as soon as you activate.

Both wings cannot be worn at the same time, and having two sets of wings (Light and Dark) offers no additional mechanical benefit. Cooldown for all the abilities are item-based and player-based, so you won't benefit in that regard for having multiple.

===Incompatible Items===
Wings can be toggled to display or not via {{boldmono|TOUCH}}. When displayed, they cannot be worn with any other item that would otherwise modify the feature slot they occupy. For non-aelotoi, '''anything''' that takes up the [[Character feature#Unique Feature Field|unique feature field]] will block the wings from being able to use the unique feature slot. See the [[list of unique feature line modifying items]] for items known to impact this feature slot.

Please note that many creatures cannot be mugged due to their coding.

Night at the Academy

2026-08-23T06:25:33Z

ZHEKCROM: /* Quest Details */ Removed rogue from recommended jobs for success. There are no challenges here that rogues excel at. The portcullis cannot be lockpicked.

[[Image:QUEST-NightAtTheAcademy.png|thumb|right|'''WARNING''': Map containers spoilers.]]
{{TOCright}}
Once maintained by Lord and Lady Tallary, the Turamzzyrian Academy of Elanthian History hosts a bounty of artifacts from all across Elanthia. Lord and Lady Tallary spent hours researching artifacts and were once considered the cornerstone of archeological history and its preservation. Historians from around the world would come to the Academy with unknown artifacts, and their team of scholars would find answers for them.

In 5102, the Academy opened an enormous Hunt for History, the second of its kind, and asked adventurers from around the globe to solve the various puzzles that presented themselves to the scholars. It was a grand undertaking that is still fondly remembered by adventurers. Unfortunately, several years later a curse befell the Academy.

During the occupation of Solhaven by the Sheruvian villan Draezir, a curse befell the keep, and those that sought help from Vornavis to quickly exterminate it were killed on their way to the Baron. The Lord and Lady Tallary, as well as many of the great scholars of the time and all their servants, were slaughtered by a malign spirit that had arisen from one of the artifacts they were studying. By the time the Vornavians had discovered what had happened, it was far too late. Unrest now roams in the haunted halls of the Academy, though much of the time it can be kept peaceful within.

Not much is known about the spirit that haunts the Academy, though it is not the only phantasm. Several of the past residents of the Academy wander the halls as well. It is rumored that in the final hours of the Academy, one of the scholars placed a spell on the artifacts to preserve them from thieves. This spell creates an energy that passes from one artifact to another, and if a ghost, spirit, or any other being passes into the field, it causes them to explode. Yet, somehow, every once in a while, something manages to take some artifacts and hide them somewhere on the grounds. That's when the undead within start to grow strong and rise up more and more.

When the undead do rise, Vornavis guardsmen hire out adventurers to set the problem straight! Adventurers explore the Academy grounds, and while battling undead, search the area for the artifacts to return them to their proper locations. Once that's done, everything seems to settle down for a time. There's a time limit involved, however, because as the undead energies keep rising, eventually the adventurers will be overwhelmed!

==Quest Details==
Up to 10 players can participate in this small-scale "quest" that takes roughly three hours to complete. This is a task-based quest that relies on good party balance and a breadth of available party skills. Players are strongly encouraged to bring a diverse group of professions, especially a cleric, an empath, and a bard for maximum success. It is also suggested that players may want to group up with others close to their own level, as the creatures in the quest will be scaled to match the levels of group members. Also, don't forget to bring your blessed weapon, and have the ability to rebless! Race the clock to collect hidden artifacts before the undead rise to block your path! Please note that one party member must be at least level 13 to complete this quest, as solving the puzzles potentially involves handling up to 5x enchanted materials.

==Location==
{{RoomDescription
|roomname=Vornavis, Outlands Road
|desc=A shallow depression in the plains, nothing is visible from here but wind-swept green rising gently toward the vastness of the sky. Only the wheel ruts, forming a pair of shallow grooves in the sea of grass, give any sign that more than nature has touched the land. You also see a large slate table with some stuff on it, a grassy path and a robust Vornavian guard.

The braided mithril and gold circlet is not rechargeable at the adventurer's guild, nor with simucoins potions. It has "quite a few" (10-14) charges. It seems reasonable to expect that the other enhancives have the same properties.

WARNING: Selecting one of the enhancive items will bind the item specifically to you. Nobody else. Period. Just you.
* The two sets of gloves have their descriptions flipped in game on the sign, but the wiki correctly matches the descriptions with the properties.

Voln For Dummies

ZHEKCROM: /* Step Twenty Four */ Crossed out waterslide info, added info about the portal to skip the waterslide.

This guide details all of the steps for advancement to Master in the Order of Voln. For details on joining, favor, symbols, titles, or resigning from the Order, visit the [[Order of Voln]] wiki page instead.

This Wiki is largely comprised of information recreated from the Arkati Archive originally authored by Kinsey Hines (aka Rumor Paramyr), and updated my Caithris Amhran. It was moved here from the Web Archive for the purposes of preservation and to make it easier to find. A link to the original will be included in the resources section at the bottom of the page.

==Basics of Advancement ==
Each step in Voln requires you to gain a certain amount of [[favor]] by slaying [[undead]] creatures. The amount of favor you have currently can be accessed using the RESOURCE verb in game. Once you have obtained the requisite amount of Favor for the step you are working on, you will visit the monk at the corresponding step (this will be the monk in the furthest room you can travel to in a given temple). If you have enough favor, the monk will take you aside and assign you a task to complete. Once you have gained enough favor and completed the task, the monk will teach you the next [[symbol]] and allow you to move on to the next step. Otherwise, the monk will inform you that you have not gained enough favor. Additionally, if you have already been given a task to complete but have not yet completed it, the monk will tell you that you as much. This guide will focus on giving you the information you need to successfully complete the tasks for each step.

==Wehnimer's Landing==
In the Temple near the Landing there is a room called The Healing Chamber in Lich Room 18213. To get there without Lich, from the Voln Courtyard -> go gate, east, east, go white door. There are several containers where helpful players have left many of the items you will need to advance through the steps.

===Step One===
[[Symbol of Recognition]]
All you need to do in order to get this symbol is join the Order. Instructions for that are included in the [[Order of Voln]] wiki.

===Step Two===
[[Symbol of Blessing]]
Eonak likes to give you a nice, hard, early challenge for this task. If you are familiar with making iron, this will be an easy step for you. If you aren't familiar with it, you may find the task daunting. If you are over 4, you will pretty much need directions if you don't know where the crucible is, if you are 4 or under, you can walk over to the Blacksmith and ask him for a job. He'll hand you a rough map on how to get to the Kobold Mines. Likely, however, there will be a slab of iron in the Healing Chamber and you will not have to do any of this.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 451, put iron in lake, ;go2 18210

(Lich shortcut: ;go2 7998) To reach the mine area from the north gate, travel: SW, S, S, S, S, S, SE, E, E, Go Bridge, Climb Bank, NE, NW, N, N, NE, N, NE, NE, N, N, NW, Go Hole, Go Shrub. This will take you to the Charcoal Burner.

First, check to see if there is already some charcoal by typing: get charcoal. If there isn't any, you must make some. Type: GET WOOD until you get a split log. Put the log in the burner. Next, type: GET WOOD until you get a handful of tinder. Put the tinder in the burner. Now, type: Get Wood until you get two sticks. When you have one in each hand, type: RUB STICKS and you will start a fire in the burner. Wait for the cycle to finish and get your charcoal.

(Lich shortcut: ;go2 8009) Now, after that, travel: Go Bush, Go Shadow, D, D, N. SEARCH. Keep searching until you find a filthy flask of oil. Once the oil is found, travel: S, D, S, SEARCH WORKFACE. Keep searching until you hear a clang and iron ore falls to the ground. GET ORE

(Lich ;go2 8013) Now, travel: N, U, Go Door. More likely than not, someone else is going to be making iron here (if you are playing Gemstone Prime). You will have to wait your turn. You may also find a kindhearted soul that will let you have a heavy slab of iron. If you can't make a deal, when it's your turn, you'll need to make your own. To make your own, do the following:

1. PUT ORE IN CRUCIBLE, PUT CHARCOAL IN CRUCIBLE too. You can put up to 4 iron ores into the crucible and make 4 slabs if you like.
2. TURN VALVE. It should close under your hand.
3. Travel EAST
4. Get your oil out and type: POUR OIL IN DRUM
5. PULL CHAIN and then PULL BELLOWS. If you are a halfling, you will need assistance.
6. Travel WEST
7. TURN VALVE and wait until you see "The flow of air into the crucible seems to be weakening."
8. After the weakening, with haste go EAST
9. PULL CHAIN, PULL BELLOWS, PULL CHAIN, PULL BELLOWS
10. Travel WEST
11. Wait for the cycle to finish ("The crackling of the iron's cooling is gone now and while it is still hot to the touch it should be safe to handle") and then type: GET IRON

(Lich shortcut: ;go2 451) Now, you need to deliver the iron to the Lake. Travel from your current location: Go Door, U, U, Out, Out, SE, S, S, SW, SW, S, SW, S, S, SE, SW, Climb Bank, Go Bridge, W, W, NW, SW, S, SE, S, SE, S, S, S, SW, E, NE. Now, type: PUT MY IRON IN LAKE. You should finish the task at this point.

(Lich shortcut: ;go2 18211) Return the Voln by traveling: SW, W, NE, N, N, N, NW, N, NW, N, NE, SE, E, E, Go Bridge, E, NE, N, N, Go Trail, E, E, E.

===Step Three===
[[Symbol of Thought]]
Oleani is the patron lady for this step along the path. For this step, you will need to forage for a small rose. There are several places that you can forage for one. You can forage for one in the room north of the North Gate, In the Small Park and Niche, as well as Sovyn Courtyard. You can also just buy a rose from the florist. There is likely a rose in the Healing Chamber.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 6315, put rose on altar, ;go2 18210

Once you find a rose, you need to go to the Wedding Glade. From the north gate, travel: NW, S, Go Path, Go Arch. Put the rose on the altar.

=== Step Four ===
[[Symbol of Diminishment]]
Lord Cholen is the patron of this symbol. He's a pretty jolly guy, so this step isn't too hard. Head back to town and stop by the bank. You need to drop coins in accordance with your level.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 311, drop coins, sing I dance to honor Lord Cholen; Who brings us joy and fun; I sing such greatly praises; Today and forever more; Be joyous for all time, my friends!, ;go2 18209

From the bank, travel: E, SE, S, S, E, E, E, E, E, E, E, E, N. Drop the coins, and type: sing I dance to honor Lord Cholen; Who brings us joy and fun; I sing such greatly praises; Today and forever more; Be joyous for all time, my friends! The poor should come out and gather up the coins and sing with you.

===Step Five===
[[Symbol of Courage]]
For this step, you need to honor Lord Jastev.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 4140, recite Lord Jastev is a sullen soul.; Lord Jastev is artistic indeed.; Lord Jastev the self-possessed.; Lord Jastev is morbid true; Lord Jastev serious, too., ;go2 18208

Head over to the graveyard gate. Travel from the Voln Courtyard: W, W, W, Go trail, S, Go Trail, E, E, N, NE (Repeat N, NE until you exit the puzzle), Go Trail, Go Path. Now, type: recite Lord Jastev is a sullen soul.; Lord Jastev is artistic indeed.; Lord Jastev the self-possessed.; Lord Jastev is morbid true; Lord Jastev serious, too. Return to Voln by traveling: Go Path, Go Trail, S, SW (Repeat SW until you exit the puzzle), W, Go Trail, N, Go Trail, E, E, E.

===Step Six ===
[[Symbol of Protection]]
Imaera likes for folks to visit her shrine, so all of her tasks involve going to her island near the Relk Village. This can be an easy step, it can also be hard. (In Prime, it's fairly easy since acorns are more common.). Go to TSC and get an acorn. Sometimes, you will have to wait until one drops. There is likely an acorn in the Healing Chamber.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 6459, kneel, bury acorn, ;go2 18207

Once you have an acorn, from the North Gate, travel: SW, S, S, S, S, S, SE, E, E, Go Bridge, Climb Bank, NE, NW, N, N, NE, N, NE, NE, N, N, NE, N, Climb Rockslide, E, SW, S, E, N, N, N, N, SE, S, SE, SE, E, E, Go Path, NW, NE, E, E, SW, D, SE, Go Shore, Swim Water, Swim Island, Go Island, Kneel, Bury Acorn. To Get back to Voln, travel: Go Water, Swim Water, Swim Bank, Go Shore, NW, U, NE, W, W, SW, SE, Go path, W, W, NW, NW, N, NW, S, S, S, S, W, N, NE, W, Climb Rockslide, S, SW, S, S, SW, SW, S, SW, S, S, SE, SW, Climb Bank, E, NE, N, N, Go Trail, E, E, E.

===Step Seven===
[[Symbol of Submission]]
Charl is pretty fierce, and a stickler for things. First, you need a piece of coral. Any piece of coral will do, but it must be coral. Other gems will not work. There is likely some coral in the Healing Chamber.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7653, put coral, ;go2 18206

Next, you must travel to Charl's Shrine. From the North Gate, travel: NW, NW, NW, Go Road, W, W, NW, W, W, W, NW, NW, W, W, SW, W, W, W, SW, W, Go Path, E, D, D, D, Go Boulder, S, Swim Open. Now, just drop the coral. Follow the directions in reverse to return to the gate, except instead of "Go Boulder", you just go out.

===Step Eight===
[[Kai's Strike]]
This is the Voln step, commonly referred to as "strike" that will let you fight undead without the use of blessed weapons or garments. You will need to travel to Kai's Temple and honor the good Lord Kai, master of unarmed combat.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 6960, go arch, say Kai, I challenge you to wrestle!, (fight using throw, punch, and kick); out, ;go2 18205

From the North Gate, travel: SW, S, W, SW, SW, S, W, W, U, N, Go Tree, U, U, Go Arch. Make sure your hands are free, then type: 'Kai, I challenge you to wrestle!' Make sure you say it out loud. Kai will appear with a big grin on his face. You will not be injured during the battle. Use the following verbs during your battle: Throw, Punch, Kick. You need to stand up when he tosses you to the ground or else it will take longer. Eventually, he will finally whisper to you that you win.

=== Step Nine===
[[Symbol of Holiness]]
Phoen loves to challenge you, and make you go through some pretty perilous places to complete his tasks. This is the second Voln Fu step. If you are young, you should probably get an escort to go with you, or have someone set a ring. Arch Wights are rather nasty creatures, with clouds, boil earth, and assorted other ways to kill you, especially since you'll be carrying a candle votive through their quarters.

lich shortcut: ;go2 bank, withdraw 100, ;go2 1244, order 16, buy, ;go2 18204, light votive, ;go2 7229 (if you cannot open the graveyard gate, you will need help to get in there), wave votive, ;go2 18204

First, visit the cleric shop in the Landing. From TSC, travel: E, E, E, S, S, Go Shop. Take about 100 coins, you will come out with change. Next, head back to Voln and along the path where the monk talked to you. At the lamp, type: light votive with lamp. If you have to go yourself, head to the courtyard and set your ring. Now, travel: W, W, W, Go Trail, S, Go Trail, E, E, N, NE (Keep alternating N and NE until through the puzzle), Go Trail, Go Path. Get the gate open (either using 407 or 309, or pushing it), Go Gate, Go Crypt, Go Arch, E, Type: 'Shadow bind my soul (typing SAY will not work, if I recall correctly), S, Go Ramp, N, W, W, N, Go Corridor, NE, NE, Go Pile, D, D, E, N, N, Out, N, Go Grating, D, D, N, N, NE, Go Stair. Now, type: Wave Votive. Remove your ring and wear it.

===Step Ten ===
[[Symbol of Recall]]
Lorminstra must figure since you risked your neck in the last step, she'd make this one easier. You need a fresh herb (surely you have some… if not, then go buy one!). Generally, a nice acantha leaf will work.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7523, put leaf on altar, pray, ;go2 18203

From TSC, travel: E , E, E, S, S, E, Go Temple, Go Altar. Now, type: put leaf on altar. Then type: pray That's all there is to it.

===Step Eleven===
[[Symbol of Sleep]]
Here's another nice and easy step for you. You need to go see Ronan who is the master of dreams, and take a quick nap.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7926, lie down, wait for Ronan to ask you a question, 'life, ;go2 18202

From the North Gate, travel: SW, W, S, SW, SW, S, S, S, S, S, SW, Go Footpath, S, S, SE, SW, S, S, E, Go Mountain Pass, Go Trail, U, U, Go Path, Go Water, Go Arch. Now, type: lie down. Soon, you will fall into a deep slumber. You will be visited by Ronan and he will then ask you a question. When this occurs, type: 'life. He will then be appeased.

===Step Twelve ===
[[Symbol of Transcendence]]
Lumnis is the patron of this symbol. She merely asks that you seek out Rone Wehnimer's Grave and answer her question.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7262 (if you cannot open the graveyard gate, you will need help to get in there), search, search, 'Koar, ;go2 18201

From the Voln Courtyard, travel: W, W, W, Go Trail, S, Go trail, E, E, N, NE (N, NE until you exit the puzzle), Go Trail, Go Path, Go Gate (You will grow to hate this gate.), NE, N, N, NW, Go Trail, NE, N, W, NW, NW, SW, W, Go Path, E. Now, type: search twice. Lumnis will ask you a question. The appropriate response, if you know anything about the Gods of Elanith at all is of course: 'Koar'. Lumnis will be happy with you.

===Step Thirteen===
[[Symbol of Mana]]
This is another of the easy series of steps. You will need to appease Koar, the Master of Mana and the King of the Gods, for this one.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7544, kneel, 'I have come to honor Koar, master of mana. (must be precise, including the period), ;go2 18200

From TSC, travel: Go Well, Climb Rope, Kneel. Type: 'I have come to honor Koar, master of mana. You must type this correctly, even the period, or else it won't work. If you want to take full advantage of this task, use up your mana before you speak. You'll see what I mean. Return to Voln for your symbol.

=== Step Fourteen ===
[[Symbol of Sight]]
You will once again honor Tonis for this step. You need to deliver a message for Tonis, to ease the burden of a poor soul.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 500, 'You have not been forgotten., ;go2 18199

From the north gate, travel: NW, NW, NW, Go Road, W, W, NW, W, W, W, NW, NW, W, W, SW, W, W, W, SW, W, W, NW, W. Now, type: 'You have not been forgotten.

===Step Fifteen===
[[Symbol of Retribution]]
Eonak guards this step. You need to seek out one of his creations to gain his favor.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7542, touch broadsword, ;go2 18198

From TSC, travel: Go Well, Climb Rope, S, Climb Rubble, E, E, E, N, N, NW, W. You will need both hands free. Then type: pull cress. Now, type: touch broadsword and Eonak will be happy.

===Step Sixteen ===
[[Symbol of Supremacy]]
You need to honor Oleani once more for this step. She's a flower nut, so, you need to go buy a dozen Bridal Blush roses (apparently, sometimes, the monk will ask you to purchase a different kind of rose). Stop by the bank and withdraw some silver, depending on your bargaining skill, this could run you anywhere from 5-10k.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 bank, withdraw 10000, ;go2 8715, order 4, buy, ;go2 234, put (100 times your level) silvers in almsbox, ;go2 4042, put roses, ;go2 18197

In case you forgot how to get to the florist, from the bank, travel: E, E, E, E, S, S, E, E, N, Go Florist. Haggle a bit and get your roses. Once you have those, travel: Out, S, W, (put 100 silvers times your level in the almsbox -- confirmed required by Dema), Go Temple, Go White Arch, Go Pink Arch, Drop Roses/Put them on the altar.

===Step Seventeen===
[[Symbol of Restoration]]
Cholen's second step is designed to teach you humility. But, the upside is you only really have to act silly in front of one other member of Voln. Having one or ten people won't make it go any faster. You need to make your way to the Roof of the Museum for this step.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 15567, use act verb to make your volunteers laugh, ;go2 18196

From TSC, travel: E, E, E, S, S, E, E, Go Museum, Climb Stair, Go Arch, Go Onyx Arch, go Ebon Arch, Go Door, Search, Climb Stairs, Climb Rope.

You will need to use the act verb to attempt to make your volunteers laugh. Regular laughing works best with no arguments. You will need to perform five to ten act commands and get laughs, as well as laugh yourself. Eventually, you should hear Cholen laugh with you.

===Step Eighteen===
[[Symbol of Need]]
Jastev's second task will show you a prophetic vision. You need to seek out a shrine in a fisherman village and touch it.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 524, touch shrine, ;go2 18195

From the North Gate, travel: NW, NW, NW, Go Road, W, W, NW, SW, S, SW, SE, S, S, SW. Here, you will need to type: touch shrine. You will receive a vision from Jastev and complete the task.

===Step Nineteen===
[[Symbol of Renewal]]
Once again, Imaera wants you to come to her island. You don't need anything special for this one, however.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 6459, stow left, stow right, kneel, pray, pray, bow deer, ;go2 18194

From the North Gate, travel: SW, S, S, S, S, S, SE, E, E, Go Bridge, Climb Bank, NE, NW, N, N, NE, N, NE, NE, N, N, NE, N, Climb Rockslide, E, SW, S, E, N, N, N, N, SE, S, SE, SE, E, E, Go Path, NW, NE, E, E, SW, D, SE, Go Shore, Swim Water, Swim Island, Go Island. You should be empty handed to do this step. It seems to not work if you are wielding. Now, you need to type: kneel and then: pray twice. When you see the deer emerge from the forest, type: bow deer. That's all there is to it. To Get back to Voln, travel: Go Water, Swim Water, Swim Bank, Go Shore, NW, U, NE, W, W, SW, SE, Go path, W, W, NW, NW, N, NW, S, S, S, S, W, N, NE, W, Climb Rockslide, S, SW, S, S, SW, SW, S, SW, S, S, SE, SW, Climb Bank, E, NE, N, N, Go Trail, E, E, E.

===Step Twenty===
[[Symbol of Disruption]]
Obviously, you will need to honor Charl again for this step. It doesn't take too much effort to satisfy him this time. He just wants your silvers. Use 100 Silvers multiplied by your level.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 bank, withdraw (level times 100) silvers, ;go2 7644, drop (level times 100) silvers, ;go2 18193

To reach the dock from the North Gate, travel: NW, NW, NW, Go Road, W, W, NW, W, W, W, NW, NW, W, W, SW, W, W, W, SW, W, Go Path, W, W, W, W, W, W, N, Go Dock, N, N, N, N, N, D, D. Here you need to drop those coins. Charl will be happy.

=== Step Twenty One===
[[Kai's Smite]]
Be prepared for a four day journey to complete this task. It's not really an arduous journey, but you'll get to see some scenery. You need to venture towards Cavernhold and drop a broadsword (or pretty much any weapon, actually) into a pool. Stop by the arms shop in town and purchase a broadsword, they cost about 250 silvers.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 bank, withdraw 250, ;go2 402; order 7, buy, ;go2 8572, drop broadsword in pool, ;go2 18192

From the North Gate, travel: SW, S, S, S, S, S, SW, S, SE, S, SE, S, S, S, SW, S, S, SE, SE, SW, W, S, S, S, S, SE, SE, NE, NE, E, E, Go Bridge, SE, S, SE, S, E, E, E, S, Search (you may need to search several times in order to find the crevice), Go Crevice, SE, Climb Rubble, S, Climb Rubble, SE (15 second rt.), SE (15 second rt.), E (15 second rt.), E (15 second rt.), Go Trail, D, D, E, S, SE. Here, you need to type: drop broadsword in pool. This will please the good Lord Kai. Simply reverse the directions to get back to town.

=== Step Twenty Two===
[[Symbol of Turning]]
Once again, you must honor Phoen. You will need a blue crystal for this step. Phoen seems to thrive on sending you off to dangerous places, and of course this step is no different. You may get to see a fire guardian up close. Nothing beats being engulfed in a fire cloud.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 4131, drop blue crystal in lava, ;go2 18191

From the North Gate, travel: SW, S, S, S, S, S, SW, S, SE, S, SE, S, S, S, SW, S, S, SE, SE, SE, SE, SE, E, E, NE, E, E, E, Go Trail, N, NE, E, SE, E, NE, N, NE, N, N, N, Go Trunk, NW, NE, U, N, U, U, W, W, NW, NW, Go Gash, D, D, D, D, N, NE, E.

===Step Twenty Three===
[[Symbol of Preservation]]
Once again, you need to honor the Lady Lorminstra. You will need to have an extra deed to spare for this step, since you must give one away. You need to visit the altar of Lorminstra to complete this step, and you must also seek out someone who has no deeds, which makes this step a bit more difficult.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7523, 'Lorminstra give [person with no deeds] my deed., ;go2 18190

To get to the altar from TSC, travel: E, E, E, S, S, E, Go Temple, Go Altar. Once there, to complete the task, type: 'Lorminstra, give [person] my deed. As I said, it will need to be someone with no deeds. You can choose to take someone with you who needs one, or wait and hope you can catch someone who happens to decay to meet the requirement, which to me, seems rather morbid.
You need at least two deeds as you cannot give away your last one.

===Step Twenty Four ===
[[Symbol of Dreams]]
You once again need to honor Ronan for this step. This is considered by some to be the most difficult Voln step, and rarely do people look forward to it. You need to scale Melghoren's Reach for this step and lie on the Onyx Altar and allow a moonbeam to strike you.

Lich shortcut (sort of): ;go2 14728, follow instructions starting below climb platform

From Voln, travel: W, W, W, Go Trail, S, S, SW, W, Go Bridge, W, W, NW, SW, S, SE, S, SE, S, S, S, SW, E, NE, Go Path, Go Opening, Climb Platform (may have to try several times), Turn Wheel, D, Out, Go Bridge, E, E, E, Go Slope (it may take several tries to get up the slope, make sure you go on this journey AS LIGHT AS POSSIBLE. Have someone hold your junk if you have to.), W, W. Now, you have to deal with the runes, which are enough to give some folks a fit.

If the Z rune is over the E, press Z. If the S rune is over the E, press O. If the O rune is over the E, press R. If the R rune is over the E rune, press S. Just look at them to see which one to push next. If you get "nothing happens", when you push a rune, you need to push E to reset and look at them again and start over. This may take multiple tries.

Here is a nice little list:

*O rune, press R
*R rune, press S
* Z rune, press Z
* S rune, press O
*nothing happens, press E

Once the stair is in place, travel: Go Stair, W, Close Dam. Now, you will need to wait for the cab to arrive. It can take up to ten minutes. Just be patient, I know it's annoying. Once it arrives, type: open dam and then: go cab. Another waiting game. You will need to wait until the cab stops.

When it does, travel: Out, Go Fog. Now, type: search until you feel the wall. Then, type: search wall, climb vine, go opening. You should now be in the Temple with the Onyx Altar.

You will once again need to wait. When you see "Suddenly a beam of moon light peeks through several tiny holes in the intricate ceiling…" type: lie on altar. Now, you need to get out.

<s>You're going to have to take the water tunnels. So, lets do that. Type: Go Shaft, Go Opening, Lie Down. Immediately, as soon as you move to the next room, type: lean left. Don't do anything again until you see "Suddenly the tunnel turns into a nearly vertical drop" is in the room description. Type: lean left. Things will go quick, but as soon as you see "just ahead the tunnel splits left and right" type: lean left. Now wait until you are out. It shouldn't take long really.</s>

<s>If you missed the first lean left, wait until you see the tunnel splits left and right, where you are gulping at bubbles, lean right, and try again from the beginning.</s>

(Information not included in original Voln for Dummies Guide) As of 2026, a portal was added at the altar room you can enter to return to the bottom of Melghoren's Reach.

===Step Twenty Five===
[[Symbol of Return]]
You will need to honor Lumnis again for this step. Some say this too, is a difficult task. You must seek out a hermit who lives under a sand castle and he will ask you a short quiz in which the questions constantly change. You need to go alone for this task.

Lich shortcut: ;go2 7626, follow directions below on how to find the hermit and answer his question and then leave, ;go2 voln

From the North Gate, travel: NW, NW, NW, Go Road, W, W, NW, W, W, W, NW, NW, W, W, SW, W, W, W, SW, W, Go Path, W, W, W, W, W, W, W, W, W, W, W, W, W. Now, type: lie, search sand, push sand. Now, make sure you are lying down. Type: search. Keep searching until you find stairs. Stand up, and type: Go Stair. Lie down again. Type: search. Keep searching until you find a curtain. Stand up again, and type: Go Curtain. Lie down again, and type: search. Keep searching until you find a pot. When you do, type: ask hermit about task. He will ask the three questions. If you have a problem remember the answer, be sure to take a look at my copy of the Voln Monk text. To get out of here, simply search for the things in reverse order.

===Step Twenty Six===
[[Symbol of Seeking]]
There is no task for this step. Consider it a gift for working so hard.

In addition to Symbol of Seeking, people Mastered in Voln also receive the Symbol of Invitation.

Symbol of Invitation allows you to invite someone into the Order, much as the Grizzled Warrior does.

Covert Arts

2026-08-05T15:44:11Z

ZHEKCROM: /* Poisoncraft */ added note about undead immunity

{{Player System Manager
|mnemonic = CA or PC
|type = Active or Passive
|availableto = [[Rogue]]s
}}
{{TOC limit|3}}
==Covert Arts Overview==
A rogue is able to train characters in Covert Arts, which increases their ability to react to and overcome various situations. There are five available arts and each art has five available ranks. Characters lose this knowledge over time and must visit a rogue to keep their training fresh.

Poisoncraft, one of the five covert arts, is slightly different than the others, in which a student must learn ranks in Poisoncraft to be able to {{boldmono|APPLY}} and '''use''' poisons. Only rogues are able to craft poisons and teach Poisoncraft and each rank unlocks access to new poison options.

Rogues begin accruing their resource, Guile, at level 20.

===Process===
{{ServiceCost
|rank1 = 50k Guile
|rank2 = 75k Guile
|rank3 = 100k Guile
|rank4 = 125k Guile
|rank5 = 150k Guile
}}
Each week while the Rogue gains experience, they also earn points of '''guile''' alongside at a 1:1 rate. They can earn a total of 50k of these points per week, and bank up to 200k total. They can then spend 50k/75k/100k/125k/150k of these points to attempt to teach Covert Arts to another character, based on how many ranks of the art the character knows.

Knowledge wanes over time and must be kept up to date by a rogue experienced enough to handle your training. Covert Arts have 200 max charges, similar to enhancive items, and will deplete at approximately the same rate. Every rank learned refreshes the charges back to 200.

Arts may be taught in any order, and you are not required to reach rank 5 in one art before moving onto another. A failure will result in a loss of 10% of the points of Guile required for the attempt. Consent is required to complete the process.

Reaching the maximum guile for the week will show as: You have plied your wiles with wit and guile; you must bide your time until new opportunities arise.

See your current weekly and total resource levels by typing {{boldmono|RESOURCE}}.

===Teaching Covert Arts===
Purchase rogue training materials ('''a nondescript bundle of supplies''') from the Rogue Guild shop for 50,000 silvers. Use {{boldmono|FEAT COVERT TEACH {character} {art}}} to attempt to train a character in one additional rank of the chosen art. The rogue must have met the training requirements of the art themselves to be eligible.
<pre{{log2}}>
>feat covert teach dwarf keen
You examine Dwarf for Keen Eye training, and estimate that you can only fail if you are horribly unlucky.
Training Dwarf in Keen Eye will require 50,000 guile.
You are requesting consent to teach Keen Eye to Dwarf. Dwarf has 30 seconds to grant or refuse his consent.
>
Dwarf has granted consent to be taught a Covert Art.
To continue with training, click TEACH in the next 30 seconds.

>feat covert teach ful keen
You examine Dwarf for Keen Eye training, and estimate that you can only fail if you are horribly unlucky.
You pull Dwarf aside for some instruction in Keen Eye.

...teaching script continues based on covert art...

===Replenishing Covert Arts Charges===
Rogues may refresh covert art training at a cost of 1000 guile per charge using the {{boldmono|FEAT COVERT TRAIN {character}}} command. Running out of charges will prevent you from gaining any Covert Art benefits, but will not reset your progress for each Art. Free to Play rogues are not eligible to teach Covert Arts but may still learn the skills through normal training.

===Success Formula===
{{Equation box|Rogue Level + (2 * Influence bonus) + Guild ranks + Ambush ranks + (Pickpocketing ranks / 2) + Art Skill + (2 * Art Stat) - Rank Modifier - Existing Arts Modifier + d100 > 100, for success.}}

The Rank Modifier is equal to 100 * the target rank of the attempt. The Existing Arts Modifier is equal to 30 * the number of existing Ranks (0-20) the character knows in other arts.

Guile may be {{boldmono|SUFFUSED}} at a rate of 1000 per 1 bonus which matches Resist Nature (620).

Recharge formula is the same as teaching except it uses the average of all Art Skills, the average of all Art Stats, and the Rank Modifier is equal to the max rank known of any Covert Art.

You examine Kaetel for Poisoncraft training, and estimate that you can only fail if you are horribly unlucky.

As you begin your lesson on Poisoncraft, you rummage through your bundle of supplies and retrieve a few vials of viscous liquid. With careful handling and firm direction, you demonstrate the proper application of the different poisons and describe their effects.
You make a decent attempt.

Success! The training continues smoothly, a mixture of explanation and further demonstration, with Kaetel following along closely. Satisfied, you conclude the lesson, confident that he has thoroughly grasped the material.
Roundtime: 10 sec.

====General Information====
[[Poison Resistance (105)]] and innate Poisoncraft resistance reduce the chance of application and the effects of applied poisons. [[Unpoison (114)]] may be used to completely remove the effects of any poison. Poisons do not count against your gear difficulty but do have limited charges.

Poison vials may be used as an AOE to affect one or more targets via {{boldmono|FEAT THROWPOISON}}. This is a SMR attack that uses Thrown Weapon ranks and Dexterity bonus to succeed. The number of targets is based on the PSM AoE formula of (3 + (MoC Skill / 50)). The result is based on the endroll margin as well as the quality of the poison. Using poison in this way will deplete 5 charges from a vial, discarding when emptied.

====Armament Breakdown====
'''Armor and Accessories'''
*Disabling poisons only
*Chance to be applied reactively or contact from Maneuvers, or spikes.
'''Shields'''
*Disabling poisons only
*Chance to be applied on any successful block while in an aggressive stance, contact from Shield Specializations, or spikes.
'''Weapons'''
*Deadly or Disabling poisons
*Chance on any successful attack or a parry while in an aggressive stance.
'''Runestaves'''
*Deadly or Disabling poisons
*Chance on successful offensive spell cast or parry while in an aggressive stance.

Charges on poisoned armaments may be stacked up to the integer limit. If a different type of poison is applied, the charges will still be set to the charges in the vial being applied. Charges on poisoned armaments deplete only when successfully applied to a target. Poison vials may not be applied to ammunition and must be applied to ranged weapons. Poisons may stack on the target depending on the poison type. Poisons have varying flare rates. In general, disabling poisons will apply more often than deadly poisons, and weaker effects will flare more often than stronger effects.

The character must have knowledge of Poisoncraft to effectively use poisons. Attempting to use a poisoned armament or poison vial without proper training may have disastrous results.

====Poison Vials====
Poison vials have a quality which determines the strength of the poison inside. The strength of a poison is used in determining the duration of disabling effects and the amount of damage. Creating vials uses the ranks in poisoncraft to determine the strength of the poison vial. Strength is determined at poison creation and transfers to the vial as a boost to either the duration or the damage range of the poison (for damage-causing poisons).

Supplies to create poison vials ('''an unremarkable apothecary kit''') may be purchased at the Rogue Guild Shop for 10,000 silver. Apothecary kits are generic and may be used to create all types of poisons.

A rogue is able to train characters in Covert Arts, which increases their ability to react to and overcome various situations. There are five available arts and each art has five available ranks. Characters lose this knowledge over time and must visit a rogue to keep their training fresh.

Poisoncraft, one of the five covert arts, is slightly different than the others, in which a student must learn ranks in Poisoncraft to be able to {{boldmono|APPLY}} and '''use''' poisons. Only rogues are able to craft poisons and teach Poisoncraft and each rank unlocks access to new poison options.

Rogues begin accruing their resource, Guile, at level 20.

Each week while the Rogue gains experience, they also earn points of '''guile''' alongside at a 1:1 rate. They can earn a total of 50k of these points per week, and bank up to 200k total.

Reaching the maximum guile for the week will show as: You have plied your wiles with wit and guile; you must bide your time until new opportunities arise.

See your current weekly and total resource levels by typing {{boldmono|RESOURCE}}.

===Teaching Covert Arts===
Purchase rogue training materials ('''a nondescript bundle of supplies''') from the Rogue Guild shop for 50,000 silvers. Use {{boldmono|FEAT COVERT TEACH {character} {art}}} to attempt to train a character in one additional rank of the chosen art. The rogue must have met the training requirements of the art themselves to be eligible.

===Replenishing Covert Arts Charges===
Rogues may refresh covert art training at a cost of 1000 guile per charge using the {{boldmono|FEAT COVERT TRAIN {character}}} command. Running out of charges will prevent you from gaining any Covert Art benefits, but will not reset your progress for each Art. Free to Play rogues are not eligible to teach Covert Arts but may still learn the skills through normal training.

===Success Formula===
{{Equation box|Rogue Level + (2 * Influence bonus) + Guild ranks + Ambush ranks + (Pickpocketing ranks / 2) + Art Skill + (2 * Art Stat) - Rank Modifier - Existing Arts Modifier + d100 > 100, for success.}}

The Rank Modifier is equal to 100 * the target rank of the attempt. The Existing Arts Modifier is equal to 30 * the number of existing Ranks (0-20) the character knows in other arts.

Guile may be {{boldmono|SUFFUSED}} at a rate of 1000 per 1 bonus which matches Resist Nature (620).

Recharge formula is the same as teaching except it uses the average of all Art Skills, the average of all Art Stats, and the Rank Modifier is equal to the max rank known of any Covert Art.

====General Information====
[[Poison Resistance (105)]] and innate Poisoncraft resistance reduce the chance of application and the effects of applied poisons. [[Unpoison (114)]] may be used to completely remove the effects of any poison. Poisons do not count against your gear difficulty but do have limited charges.

Poison vials may be used as an AOE to affect one or more targets via {{boldmono|FEAT THROWPOISON}}. This is a SMR attack that uses Thrown Weapon ranks and Dexterity bonus to succeed. The number of targets is based on the PSM AoE formula of (3 + (MoC Skill / 50)). The result is based on the endroll margin as well as the quality of the poison. Using poison in this way will deplete 5 charges from a vial, discarding when emptied.

====Armament Breakdown====
'''Armor and Accessories'''
*Disabling poisons only
*Chance to be applied reactively or contact from Maneuvers, or spikes.
'''Shields'''
*Disabling poisons only
*Chance to be applied on any successful block while in an aggressive stance, contact from Shield Specializations, or spikes.
'''Weapons'''
*Deadly or Disabling poisons
*Chance on any successful attack or a parry while in an aggressive stance.
'''Runestaves'''
*Deadly or Disabling poisons
*Chance on successful offensive spell cast or parry while in an aggressive stance.

Charges on poisoned armaments may be stacked up to the integer limit. If a different type of poison is applied, the charges will still be set to the charges in the vial being applied. Charges on poisoned armaments deplete only when successfully applied to a target. Poison vials may not be applied to ammunition and must be applied to ranged weapons. Poisons may stack on the target depending on the poison type. Poisons have varying flare rates. In general, disabling poisons will apply more often than deadly poisons, and weaker effects will flare more often than stronger effects.

The character must have knowledge of Poisoncraft to effectively use poisons. Attempting to use a poisoned armament or poison vial without proper training may have disastrous results.

====Poison Vials====
Poison vials have a quality which determines the strength of the poison inside. The strength of a poison is used in determining the duration of disabling effects and the amount of damage. Creating vials uses the ranks in poisoncraft to determine the strength of the poison vial. Strength is determined at poison creation and transfers to the vial as a boost to either the duration or the damage range of the poison (for damage-causing poisons).

Supplies to create poison vials ('''an unremarkable apothecary kit''') may be purchased at the Rogue Guild Shop for 10,000 silver. Apothecary kits are generic and may be used to create all types of poisons.

Covert Arts

2026-08-05T15:42:22Z

ZHEKCROM: /* Poisoncraft */ added note about undead immunity

{{Player System Manager
|mnemonic = CA or PC
|type = Active or Passive
|availableto = [[Rogue]]s
}}
{{TOC limit|3}}
==Covert Arts Overview==
A rogue is able to train characters in Covert Arts, which increases their ability to react to and overcome various situations. There are five available arts and each art has five available ranks. Characters lose this knowledge over time and must visit a rogue to keep their training fresh.

Poisoncraft, one of the five covert arts, is slightly different than the others, in which a student must learn ranks in Poisoncraft to be able to {{boldmono|APPLY}} and '''use''' poisons. Only rogues are able to craft poisons and teach Poisoncraft and each rank unlocks access to new poison options.

Rogues begin accruing their resource, Guile, at level 20.

===Process===
{{ServiceCost
|rank1 = 50k Guile
|rank2 = 75k Guile
|rank3 = 100k Guile
|rank4 = 125k Guile
|rank5 = 150k Guile
}}
Each week while the Rogue gains experience, they also earn points of '''guile''' alongside at a 1:1 rate. They can earn a total of 50k of these points per week, and bank up to 200k total. They can then spend 50k/75k/100k/125k/150k of these points to attempt to teach Covert Arts to another character, based on how many ranks of the art the character knows.

Knowledge wanes over time and must be kept up to date by a rogue experienced enough to handle your training. Covert Arts have 200 max charges, similar to enhancive items, and will deplete at approximately the same rate. Every rank learned refreshes the charges back to 200.

Arts may be taught in any order, and you are not required to reach rank 5 in one art before moving onto another. A failure will result in a loss of 10% of the points of Guile required for the attempt. Consent is required to complete the process.

Reaching the maximum guile for the week will show as: You have plied your wiles with wit and guile; you must bide your time until new opportunities arise.

See your current weekly and total resource levels by typing {{boldmono|RESOURCE}}.

===Teaching Covert Arts===
Purchase rogue training materials ('''a nondescript bundle of supplies''') from the Rogue Guild shop for 50,000 silvers. Use {{boldmono|FEAT COVERT TEACH {character} {art}}} to attempt to train a character in one additional rank of the chosen art. The rogue must have met the training requirements of the art themselves to be eligible.
<pre{{log2}}>
>feat covert teach dwarf keen
You examine Dwarf for Keen Eye training, and estimate that you can only fail if you are horribly unlucky.
Training Dwarf in Keen Eye will require 50,000 guile.
You are requesting consent to teach Keen Eye to Dwarf. Dwarf has 30 seconds to grant or refuse his consent.
>

To continue with training, click TEACH in the next 30 seconds.

>feat covert teach ful keen
You examine Dwarf for Keen Eye training, and estimate that you can only fail if you are horribly unlucky.
You pull Dwarf aside for some instruction in Keen Eye.

...teaching script continues based on covert art...

===Replenishing Covert Arts Charges===
Rogues may refresh covert art training at a cost of 1000 guile per charge using the {{boldmono|FEAT COVERT TRAIN {character}}} command. Running out of charges will prevent you from gaining any Covert Art benefits, but will not reset your progress for each Art. Free to Play rogues are not eligible to teach Covert Arts but may still learn the skills through normal training.

===Success Formula===
{{Equation box|Rogue Level + (2 * Influence bonus) + Guild ranks + Ambush ranks + (Pickpocketing ranks / 2) + Art Skill + (2 * Art Stat) - Rank Modifier - Existing Arts Modifier + d100 > 100, for success.}}

The Rank Modifier is equal to 100 * the target rank of the attempt. The Existing Arts Modifier is equal to 30 * the number of existing Ranks (0-20) the character knows in other arts.

Guile may be {{boldmono|SUFFUSED}} at a rate of 1000 per 1 bonus which matches Resist Nature (620).

Recharge formula is the same as teaching except it uses the average of all Art Skills, the average of all Art Stats, and the Rank Modifier is equal to the max rank known of any Covert Art.

Undead appear to be completely immune to poisons applied via poisoncraft.

<pre{{log2}}>
You examine Kaetel for Poisoncraft training, and estimate that you can only fail if you are horribly unlucky.
You pull Kaetel aside to instruct him in the finer points of Poisoncraft.

As you begin your lesson on Poisoncraft, you rummage through your bundle of supplies and retrieve a few vials of viscous liquid. With careful handling and firm direction, you demonstrate the proper application of the different poisons and describe their effects.
You make a decent attempt.

Success! The training continues smoothly, a mixture of explanation and further demonstration, with Kaetel following along closely. Satisfied, you conclude the lesson, confident that he has thoroughly grasped the material.
Roundtime: 10 sec.

====General Information====
[[Poison Resistance (105)]] and innate Poisoncraft resistance reduce the chance of application and the effects of applied poisons. [[Unpoison (114)]] may be used to completely remove the effects of any poison. Poisons do not count against your gear difficulty but do have limited charges.

Poison vials may be used as an AOE to affect one or more targets via {{boldmono|FEAT THROWPOISON}}. This is a SMR attack that uses Thrown Weapon ranks and Dexterity bonus to succeed. The number of targets is based on the PSM AoE formula of (3 + (MoC Skill / 50)). The result is based on the endroll margin as well as the quality of the poison. Using poison in this way will deplete 5 charges from a vial, discarding when emptied.

====Armament Breakdown====
'''Armor and Accessories'''
*Disabling poisons only
*Chance to be applied reactively or contact from Maneuvers, or spikes.
'''Shields'''
*Disabling poisons only
*Chance to be applied on any successful block while in an aggressive stance, contact from Shield Specializations, or spikes.
'''Weapons'''
*Deadly or Disabling poisons
*Chance on any successful attack or a parry while in an aggressive stance.
'''Runestaves'''
*Deadly or Disabling poisons
*Chance on successful offensive spell cast or parry while in an aggressive stance.

Charges on poisoned armaments may be stacked up to the integer limit. If a different type of poison is applied, the charges will still be set to the charges in the vial being applied. Charges on poisoned armaments deplete only when successfully applied to a target. Poison vials may not be applied to ammunition and must be applied to ranged weapons. Poisons may stack on the target depending on the poison type. Poisons have varying flare rates. In general, disabling poisons will apply more often than deadly poisons, and weaker effects will flare more often than stronger effects.

The character must have knowledge of Poisoncraft to effectively use poisons. Attempting to use a poisoned armament or poison vial without proper training may have disastrous results.

====Poison Vials====
Poison vials have a quality which determines the strength of the poison inside. The strength of a poison is used in determining the duration of disabling effects and the amount of damage. Creating vials uses the ranks in poisoncraft to determine the strength of the poison vial. Strength is determined at poison creation and transfers to the vial as a boost to either the duration or the damage range of the poison (for damage-causing poisons).

Supplies to create poison vials ('''an unremarkable apothecary kit''') may be purchased at the Rogue Guild Shop for 10,000 silver. Apothecary kits are generic and may be used to create all types of poisons.

Collectible

2019-07-03T01:06:43Z

ZHEKCROM: Added details for collectible set 19

A '''collectible''' is a special type of treasure that is only found in [[box (treasure)|locked boxes]] and can be redeemed for special rewards at the collectibles shop in each town. The collectibles shops will also store these collectible items, so you don't have to use up valuable inventory and/or locker space while working towards completing a set. The collectibles shops don't buy or sell anything (if you want to sell the collectibles for silver, take them to the pawn/gem shop instead). What you do is bring any found collectibles to the shop and then DEPOSIT them. The shop then holds on to them for you until you either WITHDRAW the collectible or REDEEM a completed set.

Talk:Sarmoc potion

2019-06-28T01:17:39Z

ZHEKCROM: Created page with "Xeraphina says, "Sarmoc potions are pour for pour with temper potions... so if you poured twice, you need to sarmoc twice, if you poured six times, you need to sarmoc six time..."

Xeraphina says, "Sarmoc potions are pour for pour with temper potions... so if you poured twice, you need to sarmoc twice, if you poured six times, you need to sarmoc six times."

Got this info from Xeraphina after a referral involving a project that was stuck.

Sarmoc potion

2019-06-28T01:14:41Z

ZHEKCROM: Adding important information about sarmoc usage from GM Xeraphina.

A '''sarmoc potion''' is used to remove a temper from an [[enchanting]] project.

Wizards can use the spell [[Elemental Detection (405)]] to see the status of the untemper. An application of sarmoc typically requires one to two hours to work its magic. The enchanter should check often with 405 if they are in a particular rush to remove tempers from an enchanting project.

It is important to note that one pour of a sarmoc potion removes one pour of a temper potion. For projects that have had multiple tempering pours, it is required to pour the sarmoc and wait for it to detemper for each tempering cycle the item has been through.

Talk:Stamina potion

2019-04-22T15:00:33Z

ZHEKCROM: Blanking page due to deleting the only comment that I made because I'm dumb and didn't check the recipe 16 times, only 15 times.

Talk:Stamina potion

2019-04-22T13:59:51Z

ZHEKCROM: Created page with "I don't think this recipe is correct. >look in cauldron The iron cauldron is currently lit. So far, you've added water, powdered sylvarraend ruby, and troll blood, simmered..."

I don't think this recipe is correct.

>look in cauldron
The iron cauldron is currently lit. So far, you've added water, powdered sylvarraend ruby, and troll blood, simmered it, added 4 doses of mashed golden buttercup, chanted Adrenal Surge, added essence of vitality and hazy brown liquid essence, boiled it, and refracted sunlight into it through a ruby lens.

>alchemy seal
The contents of the cauldron swirl suddenly, turning an unpleasant shade of brown and casting a foul odor into the air. The solution is clearly ruined.

With a sigh, you empty the cauldron of its failed concoction.

Collectible

2019-04-05T00:47:58Z

ZHEKCROM: Cleaned up wording on the Antique Lockpicks reward.

A '''collectible''' is a special type of treasure that is only found in [[box (treasure)|locked boxes]] and can be redeemed for special rewards at the collectibles shop in each town. The collectibles shops will also store these collectible items, so you don't have to use up valuable inventory and/or locker space while working towards completing a set. The collectibles shops don't buy or sell anything (if you want to sell the collectibles for silver, take them to the pawn/gem shop instead). What you do is bring any found collectibles to the shop and then DEPOSIT them. The shop then holds on to them for you until you either WITHDRAW the collectible or REDEEM a completed set.

Raging Thrak

2019-03-28T20:52:17Z

ZHEKCROM: Added lich room for Tedrik

The warrior Raging Thrak lives in the Raging Thrak inn and gives advice to new adventurers. His speech was updated in 2014 to reflect changes and new options. Even if you review the speech here, your character should still visit the Raging Thrak to receive the [[experience]] associated with the task.

[[Icemule Trace]] has its own "Raging Thrak" in the form of Trevor Dabbings, and [[Ta'Vaalor]] has Retired Airship Officer Tedrik (Malwith Inn - Lich room #21223).

<pre{{log2}}>
[The Thrak's Booth]
The smell of sour small beer assaults your nose as you enter this rather cramped and hot booth. Half-cured pelts of exotic creatures line the walls and a chair made of yellowed troll king bones sits in a half shadow in one corner. Seated in the chair is the ruined hulk of a man, his potbelly, bulbous red nose and cracked leather armor show that he has long since given up caring for his appearance. You also see the warrior Raging Thrak that is sitting.
Obvious exits: out

>look at Thrak
You see the wreck of a once mighty warrior. His nose has been reddened by years of drinking and his belly enlarged by a lack of activity. A pocked pewter mug half-filled with small beer is held protectively in both hands. A hint of intelligence can be seen in the grey eyes that have grown hazy with age.

Well, now, it seems we have another fresh young face right off the turnip farms come to town to be a hero. Bein' a hero ain't all it's cracked up to be some days, but most of the time it's pretty excitin'. Now, listen up and I'll give ya the benefit of my many years of wisdom, gleaned from the farthest corners of the lands and the brightest and best of the heroes of the past.

>
Bein' a hero in the lands has as much to do with how ya represent yourself as it does with how well ya can split a rolton head open with a claidhmore or a spell. If ya show respect for your fellow adventurers and maintain a sense of style, you'll gain their respect for yourself. If ya conduct yourself as a barbarian, ya can expect those around ya to treat ya as one. Since you're in town now, I'll let ya know a little bit about what's expected of civilized folks in general within the town walls.

When ya first arrived at the crossroads of life, ya might have started on your way before ya finished listenin' ta the sprite that appeared on your shoulder. With its help, as well as ADVICE and DIRECTIONs, ya can get a good start on your way ta becomin' the hero ya wanna be. Some folks use [[URCHIN]] guides to help find basic places. Ya can also use DIRECTIONS to find [[Silverwood Manor|SILVERWOOD MANOR]], where ya can ring the bell and ask a Mentor for help. Remember that askin' questions is good, so long as ya take the time to learn so that ya can eventually make your own way in this life and go on to help others.

There are times when ya might be tempted to attack the first thing ya see. Well, sometimes the first thing ya see is another adventurer, and they don't like bein' attacked any more than ya would like being attacked. We have enough trouble fightin' the monsters in the surrounding lands without fightin' amongst each other, so it's best if ya restrain your urges ta kill your fellow adventurers. Besides, killing someone in town is likely ta get the constable very upset, and he'll arrest ya and fine ya more money than ya ever saw on that turnip farm of yours.

Ya may also be tempted to pick up any items ya notice laying about on the ground. While it's admirable that ya want ta help keep our little town clean, those items may belong to someone else who's either in the area or coming right back for them. It's always best ta ask those around ya if something belongs ta someone before ya pick it up. Also, NEVER drop your own items on the ground, cause they can get swiped up by someone else or, even worse, by the [[janitor]]-like magic that keeps the lands litter-free. If ya truly want to throw an item away, use a trash barrel!

Somethin' else real important about your belongings and your [[inventory|INVENTORY]]: for your own items, if they're important to ya, be sure to [[REGISTER (verb)|REGISTER]] them. Ya might even want to [[MARK (verb)|MARK]] them. When stowin' gear, use MY, as in '''PUT MY CUPCAKE IN MY KNAPSACK''', to prevent accidentally putting things in the wrong place! For weapons, ya can also use [[Character_guide#Item_Handling|STORE]] and SHEATH. If you want to sell items or trade them for coins with other adventurers, always use [[EXCHANGE (verb)|EXCHANGE]] to make the trade. All of these tips will help to keep your items safe from unexpected loss.

Speaking to those people around ya is a good way to gain information, but keep in mind that they each have their own goals here. If they don't respond to your questions, don't yell at them. Speaking IN ALL CAPS is considered yelling here. It also doesn't help to include more than one ! when ya want to emphasize something. Yelling, "I want a broadsword!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" doesn't impress anyone. Ya should also avoid using [[Out of character|out-of-character]] chat acronyms like LOL, L8R, and OMG that can swiftly remove any feeling of character immersion, and in fact makes everyone wonder why ya didn't stay on the turnip farm.

When speaking aloud here, remember that you're in [[Wehnimer's Landing]] now, not on that turnip farm where ya can blithely discuss things like your character statistics numbers, the Super Bowl, or the hottest new computer hardware. Those mystical terms are likely to get ya several glares from your fellow adventurers. If ya wish to discuss those things, it's best to do so with one person by [[WHISPER (verb)|WHISPER]]ing to them, and for them mystical, out-of-character mumbo jumbo things, try to WHISPER OOC.

Inevitably, you're gonna need help of some sort after a traipsing off into the wilds. Once ya get back to town, if you're hurt, ya should check Town Square Central for empaths to heal your wounds. In those same places, ya can also often find a cleric who can resurrect ya from the dead.

If you've got chests that need to be picked, rogues tend to make the Land Tower East, which is the eastern tower at Land's End Road, their base of operations. (If you're a rogue yourself, remember NOT to pick in crowded areas where ya can blow everyone else up if ya fail to disarm a trap.) In all cases, keep in mind that ya may have to wait your turn. Remember to ask for help politely, and don't scream at anyone. Also, try to tip for services where people are helpin' ya out.

>
If you're really in a fix and need quick help, there's also a permanent healer, cleric, and locksmith located in town, which ya can find with DIRECTIONs. For other ways to get help with specific tasks, ya can always see about what [[SERVICE (verb)|SERVICE]] is available near ya, or ya can wear one of those pretty ESP crystal amulets that lets ya magically think thoughts to people who aren't right next to ya. Just RUB the amulet, then THINK what ya want to say or take a look at [[crystal amulet|ESP]] COMMANDS to see what ya want to do. If ya meet individuals who ya think ya want to run into again, ya can try to [[BEFRIEND (verb)|BEFRIEND]] them.

>
Now, a few quick words about hunting. First off, make sure ya get prepared before ya go out. This means that if ya use a weapon or a shield, get 'em out. If you're a spell-caster, make sure ya got mana. Wear your armor! When possible, get some defensive spells -- from yourself if ya can cast them, from your fellow adventurers in the Small Park of Town Square, or from magical items. If you're unsure what you're holding, ya can [[GLANCE (verb)|GLANCE]] down at your hands to see. If ya got stuff in the wrong hands, just SWAP them. Last thing ya should do before ya go out into the wilds is check your [[STANCE (verb)|STANCE]] to see if you're prepared to defend or to battle. Ya can always get some STANCE HELP if ya ain't sure which stance ya want to be in.

>
If, when you're out in the wilds, a creature comes limping up ta ya, it usually means that someone else has attacked it and will be hot on its heels. If they don't arrive within a few seconds, it's acceptable to finish off the creature. If ya walk in on a fight, it's polite to ask the people there if they need help before ya just jump on in. If the person in the fight is stunned, ya can either jump in the fight or try to drag them away. Usually either is acceptable as long as ya let the person take over, if they wish, when they ain't stunned any more.

>
If ya want a different way of experiencin' the world that don't involve choosing your own way, ya might want to consider taking a trip (use those DIRECTIONS again) over to the [[Adventurer's Guild]]. Find a taskmaster inside and then ASK TASKMASTER ABOUT BOUNTY to be assigned a task. If ya complete the task, ya can earn experience, silvers, and other fancy items. Try joinin' a House or a Meeting Hall. There are societies that might take ya in, too, such as the [[Order of Voln]], [[Guardians of Sunfist]], or[[CoL|...]] well, I guess I can't give all of my secrets away, now can I?

Sometimes ya might find that there's something extra that ya want to do or get, like storage space in a locker, a reduction in the after-effects of death (what we here call Death's Sting), help with travel, or an access pass to a society or guild that ya might not otherwise be able to get into. If any of those are the case, it's worth checkin' out what ya can get through [[simucoin|SIMUCOIN]], since ya might find something worthwhile for ya there.

>
Last, but not least, it's important to take time to enjoy yourself and explore the world around ya. There's always somethin' going on, from merchants visiting to town invasions to the stories that unfold within the many groups of adventurers all over Elanthia. No matter what ya choose, there's history everywhere, and ya always got a chance to be a part of that history if ya listen and interact with others, pay attention to the world around ya, and stay true to your character.

Well, I think that's the extent of my wisdom for today; the rest you'll have to discover on your own. But this should be enough to make sure ya turnip farmers don't annoy some Lord or Lady to the point where they wanna blast ya out of your muddy boots. And trust me, ya don't want that! Now, let's see if ya remember anything I just told ya.

Collectible

2019-03-02T12:51:52Z

ZHEKCROM: Added guild night and antique lockpick rewards.

A '''collectible''' is a special type of treasure that is only found in [[box (treasure)|locked boxes]] and can be redeemed for special rewards at the collectibles shop in each town. The collectibles shops will also store these collectible items, so you don't have to use up valuable inventory and/or locker space while working towards completing a set. The collectibles shops don't buy or sell anything (if you want to sell the collectibles for silver, take them to the pawn/gem shop instead). What you do is bring any found collectibles to the shop and then DEPOSIT them. The shop then holds on to them for you until you either WITHDRAW the collectible or REDEEM a completed set.

Cast of characters

2019-02-05T01:39:20Z

ZHEKCROM:

{{TOCright}}
Please feel free to add a brief description of your [[Platinum]] character(s) here.

== NPCS ==

=== Seika ===
----
[[Cast_of_characters#Jeofrey|Jeofrey]] created a total of 20 Seika Homunculi originally that awakened upon his death. Many were killed by a mob of villagers angry at the experiments her father, [[Cast_of_characters#Jeofrey|Jeofrey]], was performing in their village. After [[Cast_of_characters#Jeofrey|Jeofrey]] abandoned his evil plans, he deactivated 11 of them...but one Seika escaped his control and was able to absorb the essences of the others. She then was able to use [[Cast_of_characters#Jeofrey|Jeofrey]]'s eye to become a lich herself. She has been tormenting [[Cast_of_characters#Qualeric|Qualeric]], possessing him and using his essence to create a group of hybrid bat's and elves. Currently her whereabouts are unknown, but dark rumors surround her and her future plots to gain even more power. She has claimed to kill Chayka and [[Cast_of_characters#Jeofrey|Jeofrey]] herself.

=== Jeofrey ===
----
Originally an evil magic user with plans for world domination, he created a group of Homunculi called [[Cast_of_characters#Sieka|Sieka]]'s to assist him in his work...as well as a vessel for his soul, a young child named Chayka. Through the efforts of various adventurer's, he was dissuaded from his evil plan and convinced to walk instead the path of Light. Creating a golem body to inhabit instead of the child, he transferred his essence and became the Golem Lich. He has been missing for many months, along with his vessel Chayka.

=== Leiana ===
----
Leiana, daughter of the Thrak Inn proprietor Sabrien, has lived in Wehnimer's Landing most of her life. After losing her mother to disease at the age of 10, Leiana and her father moved to the Landing in search of community and business. She has never left the walls of the Frontier town until 5118 and has led a very sheltered life that bred privilege and a dangerous sense of curiosity as a result. Acting upon that desire to explore, she has begun seeking out contracts for treasure and adventure across Elanthia.

== Players ==

=== Achsel ===
----

Lead singer of the heavy metal band 'Mithril Mayhem', this gruff but friendly fellow is constantly on the look out for inspiration for his next song. With hits like 'Invar Mine Lady', 'On the Razern's Edge', and 'Caligos Isle', he and his fellow band member [[Cast_of_characters#Zundrar|Zundrar]] have played in such famous locales as The Bluerock Brewery in Zul Logoth, The Thrak Inn at the Landing, and even Caligos Isle itself. He doesn't pay much attention to politics, though he has a keen sense of right and wrong. He is also a bit of a lush, and has strong opinions on beards, music, and beer.

=== Calauria ===
-----

The shy and rather secretive Elven bard hails from Ta’Illistim, but shows little interest in returning. Possessed of proper, ladylike manners, she is easily shocked by some of her newer acquaintances, hinting at a sheltered upbringing. Her current impoverished state, given her apparent background, could lead to disconcerting questions she might find hard to ignore.

=== Idun ===
-----

Child-like and free spirited, Idun is kind, very friendly and genuinely cares about others. She loves to be helpful and is easily entertained, usually finding joy in small things. A difficult and isolated past has had a profound effect on her. She is most comfortable with another in control. Idun can be unpredictable and is a bit "touched", even unstable at times. She is loyal to a fault and values those in her life above all else. Her dislike of being alone is somewhat mitigated by her love of gowns, toys and visits with her animal friends.

=== Ishvari ===
----

A banished Priestess of Lumnis, this knowledge-thirsty Faendryl found an alternative method to become an empath (but not without some heavy side-effects). She is polite, somewhat quiet, and very ladylike although she is not above the <del>frequent</del> occasional snide remark. Currently, she is often seen with the Dhe'nar, Xindrell, as they are united in a mission yet to be revealed to anyone other than themselves. She is self-conscious of her pale skin, and dislikes anyone staring at her one crimson-hued eye for too long. They can stare at her silver eye all they want, however.

=== Jaired ===
----

I bomb atomically, Socrates' philosophies and hypotheses can't define how I be droppin' these Mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery. Flee with the lottery, possibly they spotted me. Battle-scarred shogun, explosion when my pen hits. Tremendous, ultra-violet shine blind forensics. I inspect view through the future see millennium, Killa Beez sold fifty gold sixty platinum. Shackling the masses with drastic rap tactics. Graphic displays melt the steel like blacksmiths.

=== Jaynon ===
----

Formerly a Paladin of Voln, he has recently heard the call of the Sea...partly due to his affiliation with the rogue Tanai. Lord Whick and Jaynon have been bitter enemies, with Jaynon taking a leading role in the prosecution of Whick after his arrest for the kidnapping of Leiana and murder of Izaar. He is a guardian in combat, fighting with a sword and shield, more concerned with the protection of his allies than a quick and easy win. He values honour above all else, and is honest to a fault.

=== Kiver ===
----

Named after the boat he was found in, Kiver washed ashore as a babe at [[Maelstrom Bay]] in [[River's Rest]]. He was adopted into the arms of a reclusive sect of druids. The Half-Krol found his calling not with the old Gods of his [[Klinast]], but instead a militant dedication to the Goddess [[Imaera]].

=== Lilium ===
----

[[Lilium]]'s origins are as strange as her appearance. One day she appeared on [[Lorminstra]]'s Altar in the [[Wehnimer's Landing]] Temple without any memories or possessions to explain who she is or how she came to be there. She took her appearance on Lorminstra's Altar as a sign to dedicate herself to the Goddess. As a Master in the Order of Voln, Lilium is quite zealous in scouring the undead from all of Elanthia.

Recent events involving Lord Whick and the death of Bareth have caused Lilium to reconsider her role in safeguarding the souls of the innocent. A more proactive approach, rather than reactive, might be the best way to prevent another tragedy from occurring.

=== Lutika ===
-----

Lutika has been a resident of Wehnimer's Landing for many, many years, having settled there after a long life spent traveling afar from her homeland. Now an elderly forest gnome, she labors to care for the injured and sickly using her skill with the healing arts. Lutika projects the demeanor of the stereotypical grandmother, overly doting and kind, but she's quite capable of turning her healer's gifts into fatal tools when threatened. Fortunately, this is seldom necessary, as it's rare to see her range beyond civilization these days.

=== Megaira ===
-----

A dwarf of questionable sanity, Megaira went to Caligos Isle when the Ebon Gate opened to it for the first time, and there she stayed. By the time it reopened in 5118, her mind was warped and her devotion to her prior deity was cast off. Now, she was a cleric in service to Ghezresh. She's been cast out and back into Elanthia with the closing of the Ebon Gate in 5118, and she now spreads the deceitful and manipulative word of her Arkati. Quite nicely fills the role of crazed witch, too, right down to the slivers of bone piercing her ears and brow. For all of her flaws and peculiarities, Megaira does wield real power granted by her god, and it's yet to be seen what she intends to do with it.

=== Nimarue ===
-----

Likened to a curious bird of prey, the young sylvan seems an untamed creature that belongs in the wilderness, and perhaps kept far away from civilized people. Her speech patterns are occasionally awkward as though she struggles both for the correct word and, perhaps, polite phrasing. (She fails, often, though this seems little to bother her.)

=== Oezzilm ===
----

Oezzilm is a local farmer of pumpkin, turnips, and carrots near the Landing. He hopes to eventually have an entire herd of urghs and roltons, but so far he has only one of each. He can be found selling produce around town, fresh after coming from his fields. He has a brother who is great at plowing, and a collection of hoes.

=== Phocosoen ===
----

Everyone deserves to be free and [[Phocosoen]] will always oppose those that seek to enslave others against their will like any member of the [[Maeramil Wind Runner Clan]] should. Boisterous and outgoing, he loves nothing more than regaling others with the numerous ways in which he crushes his enemies on a daily basis. The [[Guardians of Sunfist]] have no shortage of enemies and Phocosoen is a proud member that is all too happy to mercilessly slaughter [[orc]]s, [[troll]]s, [[ogre]]s, and [[giant]]s. Freedom, muscles, and a song in his heart is all a man needs to enjoy life.

=== Qadheon ===
----

Qadheon is a Faendryl monk and proprieter of [[https://ps.lichproject.org/shops/6077 Ta'Faendryl Importers]], a business located in the Landing. In addition to this, he has been searching for some lost artifacts, but rumor has it he is not very focused on this task. He has been seen worshipping [[Ghezresh]] on Caligos Isle and made mention of importing that spirit's presence to the Isle of Four Winds. Despite this intrigue, he is a generally nice fellow.

=== Qoshkalia ===
----

Qoshkalia is a Faendryl paladin of Fash'lo'nae dedicated to learning, particularly the use of bladed weapons. In the pursuit of this, she has been recognized as a Palestra of the Peltast rank. Recently she has been seen working with [[Cast_of_characters#Whick|Lord Whick]] in his actions in the Landing, though the exact reasoning is unclear. Word has it that she originally came to the Landing to work on finding some ancient artifacts for a Sorcerer in Ta'Faendryl.

=== Qualeric ===
----

[[Qualeric]] is an elderly wizard, student of the arcane, and an active follower of [[Jastev]]. Hailing from Ta'Illistim, he enjoys learning, raining destruction upon usurpers, and all the opportunities the Shining City represents. He is currently engaged in sorting through some things owned by his widow that were recently found in an old storage shed, as well as attempting to discover a new metal which he believes exists but is otherwise undocumented. His familiar is a bat named Klysmar.

=== Rafferty ===
----

A rustic half-elf from the edges of the Wyrdeep Forest, [[Rafferty]] is wary of towns and their folk but cautiously open to broadening his horizons. He's got little patience for airs and graces, and bullies make him grouchy. Though he keeps his problems to himself, he's willing to lend a hand where he's able. Literally, if you're missing one. For some reason, people keep mistaking him for a pirate.

=== Tanai ===
----

Tanai is an orphaned street-rat with a mysterious past. She loves sweets, the ocean, and [[Cast_of_characters#Jaynon|Jaynon]], not necessarily in that order. She considers [[Cast_of_characters#Whick|Lord Whick]] one of her mortal enemies, especially after being possessed and manipulated by him for a time. She is finally learning how to connect with people, what love entails, and how to read and write. She can be very blunt, downright rude, and occasionally volatile. She is also, however, fiercely loyal, kind-hearted (at times), and enthusiastic (especially for sweets).

=== Thresher ===
----

A quiet man, this Half-Krolvin is very devout in his worship of '''[[::Marlu|Marlu, the Lord of Destruction]]'''. Despite the stereotype surrounding Marluites, Thresher himself is a kind soul, not wishing any undue harm or pain to anyone. However, he is of the firm belief that the only way to have lasting peace on Elanthia is to 'start fresh'...by burning what is, so something new may grow. He believes Undead are an Abomination to his Lord...and fights against any who practice such arts fiercely.

=== Tsukiko ===
-----

Tsukiko supposedly hails from Eloth-Ra, the capital city of the Erithian nation located on the continent of Atan Irith. A stranger in a strange land (to her), she often stands out for the traditional garb of her people, honoring both her Yachan Dai clan bloodline and her devotion to the Volnath Dai sect. To say that Tsukiko is committed to Voln's cause would be an understatement, given the Volnath Dai association, and she persistently works to liberate the souls of the dead from unlife as a holy cause. Tsukiko tends to be unerringly polite, if sometimes ignorant of local ways, but she is a reliable ally and skilled wielder of the katana. Tsukiko is said to make lovely jewelry from most any gemstone for a modest fee, and she has a small shop in Wehnimer's Landing.

=== Varuna ===
-----

Little is known of Varuna, save that she apparently hails from Caligos Isle and left for Elanthia when the Ebon Gate closed in 5118. By some unknown magic or transformation, she always appears to be a cloud of indigo mist threaded with silver streamers. Few have seen her true appearance. She would claim herself to be the Incarnation of the Mist or the False Prophet, both titles indicative of her devotion to the deity Ghezresh. She attempts no deception regarding her use of dark magic, as well as her involvement in dark deeds on Caligos Isle and beyond the gate aimed to serve her deity. Interestingly, Varuna is also skilled at creating artistic scars and provides this service for a price. Her work is done utilizing a strange knife with a blade cut from a large emerald.

=== Whick ===
----

'''[[::Whick|Great Lord Whick]]''' is polite, personable, and a man of many talents and much knowledge. He is gracious, can be kind, and he always is ready to help out those in need. At the same time, he is an unrepentant murderer and has a sadistic streak that runs deep. There is much speculation as to who his true masters are. Though he claims to be working for the Empire and the Hall of Mages (and many records will confirm that), dark whispers in the shadows speak of his true loyalty lying to something...other. He is meticulous and clever, preferring manipulation to brute force. He values order and security.

Citizenship

2019-01-28T18:09:59Z

ZHEKCROM: /* Citizenship Clerk Locations */ Changed Icemule citizenship clerk lich room ID after the Clovertooth Hall expansion

'''Citizenship''' can be achieved in many of the cities and towns found in [[Elanthia]]. In some cities, citizenship is limited by [[race]]. This limitation may either exclude certain races, or it may offer partial citizenship to others. Citizenship and partial citizenship bring various benefits to those who maintain them in the city or town. Using the command CITIZEN, a player can view their character's current citizenship status.

==Earning Citizenship==

Citizenship is earned by accumulating citizenship points. These points are gathered by performing certain actions in a town, including interacting with town NPCs, using town shops, or using other town services. A ranking system is in place to allow players to check how close to citizenship they are in a town. This is done by going to the town's citizenship clerk and then asking the clerk about STATUS. If the player is eligible, ask about CITIZENSHIP and the clerk will indicate so. To then proceed on to becoming a citizen, you must ask about REGISTER and the clerk will direct you to WRITE your name in a book (WRITE BOOK). This will grant you citizenship or partial citizenship, depending on your race. It should be noted that if a character's race makes them ineligible for citizenship, it will not be mentioned when asking about STATUS, so keep in mind which towns allow what races citizenship.

A commonly held misconception about citizenship is that backroom access is required in all shops for citizenship. While purchasing from NPCs does gain one citizenship points, these actions must be done over time. Rapidly purchasing in order to gain backroom access wastes a significant amount of silvers with very little return in points. Purchasing goods over time is effective. Doing tasks for the city's local branch of the Adventurer's Guild seems to be an effective way to earn citizenship points, although whether this is on its own merits or due to the need to interact with NPCs is not known. It takes approximately eight hours to gain citizenship through performing various tasks.

It is possible to earn citizenship points in multiple cities at one time. It is even possible to reach citizenship eligibility in multiple cities, but once you have achieved citizenship in one city, you cannot have it in another unless you give up citizenship in the first. This can be done by CLEANing the book in the citizenship office.

The eligibility tiers are as follows:
* Tier 0: You've got ALOT of work ahead of you, <character name>.
* Tier 1: You've started on the path to citizenship, <character name>.
* Tier 2: Ahhh, <character name>, you're progressing nicely towards citizenship.
* Tier 3: <character name>, you certainly are gaining a lot of recognition around town lately.
* Tier 4: Greetings, <character name>. How is life treating you today?

Shortly after achieving the fourth tier, citizenship will become available if the character's race is allowed in the town. There is no change in STATUS after citizenship is available; make sure you're asking about citizenship instead of status at this point.

If the character is not eligible for citizenship in a town (generally for racial reasons) and asks about STATUS, they would get the following response. This one is from the scar-faced clerk in Ta'Vaalor.

The clerk slams down her quill and looks you in the face with a mixture of revulsion and disqust [sic] before saying, "[CHARACTER NAME], you are allowed in the Fortress by the grace of the King and the Council. Do not mistake the opportunity to trade for an invitation to belong. You do not now, nor will you ever, qualify for citizenship in the Fortress."

* Bank note exchanges provide benefits to citizens.
* Discounts when using the [[Chronomage Teleportation System|Chronomage]] system from the town of citizenship.
