Lord Diabrecho, Elemental of Water, Lord of the Sea =================================================== Lord Diabrecho is distinguished by unfathomably deep and knowing eyes, hair rich and flowing like the sea, and a body that is both muscular and sleek. He is the sage and wise philosopher who speaks in a rich, deep voice like the rolling of the ocean waves. Although he wields a great blue-green trident, he is not particularily warlike. He is the most intelligent and laconic of the Elementals, and most likely the least threatening. > read elementals You read the scroll titled Elementals. The Elementals ============== As everyone knows, the world is made of four elements: earth, air, fire, and water. The varying mixture of these elements makes stone, wood, bread, wine, and even flesh and bone. But the ancient Kyrulians discovered that these elements were each created and governed by the four Elementals, unimaginably powerful beings who created the world in four days. The short form of the creation story is traditionally told this way: Lady Gu hewed a great stone from the limitless void that existed before the world was born, but the stone was without shape. Lord Pyros ignited a great fire which melted the stone so that it could be shaped into mountains, plains, and valleys. Lord Diabrecho cooled the stone by drenching it with water, so much that seas, lakes, and rivers remained long after the stone had cooled. Lady Aeria saw that some bits of the great stone had been loosened in the shaping and the cooling, and she set them in motion with a gentle breath, starting the dance of life. Unfortunately, most of the Kyrulians knowledge was lost in the destruction of their walled city, which once commanded the summit of Mount Kyrus. Of their legendary library, their many rituals and chants, and of their personal relationship with the Elementals, only a few tales have been handed down to the present generation. Most of these concern the individual characteristics of the Elementals themselves. > read focus You read the scroll titled Focus. The Focus Chamber ================= The Focus Chamber is one of the most magical rooms in the temple. There members of the circle can contemplate to see what skills can be learned there, pray to each God or Goddess by name, then focus to gain knowledge in each of the magical arts. It is a wonderous chamber that must be seen to be believed. > read gu You read the scroll titled Gu. Lady Gu, Elemental of Earth, Ruler of the Lands =============================================== Lady Gu is a lady of nature, with vivid green eyes and rich, wavy brown hair, often wearing a long gown of flowers. She is a tranquil spirit, generally at peace with all Creation, but beneath the serenity lurks a dark, dour side to her, ruthless and hard when the need arises. She speaks like the sound of stones running down a mountainside and wears a crown of stone roses. Most compassionate and understanding of the Elementals, she can be severe in her revenge if sufficiently provoked. > read guild You read the scroll titled Guild. As a member of the Elemental Worshippers, you will be required to forfeit fifteen percent of your experience gained. In return, we shall offer training in polearm, spellcraft, divination spells, earth spells, fire spells, water spells, air spells, defence, awareness, herbalism and language.

You shall be expected to honour and respect all members of this clerical circle, no matter their race or alignment. You shall also ensure there is no bloodshed inside the Elemental Temple. No member shall ever take the life of another, for if they try, the punishment shall be severe. If you are interested in joining our circle, enter the altar chamber east and south of here, and pray to the Elementals there. > read islands You read the scroll titled Islands. Years ago, after the Great Battle, one of Kroug's most dangerous renegade Generals known as Steerax led his defeated force to the west coast of Calia, a few leagues southwest of Gelan. There his well-armed soldiers entered the village of Greensea, where they plundered supplies and slew many of the peaceful locals. In their hastily appropriated accomodation, they planned an assault on the twin coastal islands, home of the last Worshippers of the Elementals, our founders. In those days the islands were visible from much of the western coastline of Calia, and indeed Greensea was sometimes visited by the islanders. Positioned between islands was a great smoking volcano known as Mount Pyros, which stood like a fearful sentinel. Stealing the boats of the local fishermen, the soldiers rowed out to sea and landed their force on the southern island, Menisca. There they hoped to quickly conquer the great walled city of the island and use it as a new headquarters. The battle was short and bloody. Steerax's troops, who were fast spiralling out of control in the absence of their true leader, burned and looted the great city, leaving very little intact. Steerax was forced to behead many of his most over-zealous krougs in an attempt to restore some kind of order. As fresh plans were being made to row to the northern island of Conchoida, the elements arose in defence of the islands. It seems that the Elementals, as patrons of the islanders, had decided once and for all to take their folk out of harm's way. Mount Pyros erupted, and in a great earthquake, the foundations of the islands crumbled and they sank beneath the surface in a great turbulence. Gigantic waves rolled against the coast and battered the rocks, and it is said that the noise of the eruption could be heard as far away as Mount Kyrus. None of folk who were present on the islands on that day have ever been seen again, whether kroug, or islander, or the vile Steerax.. at least as they were. There have been many sightings of strange merfolk, some of divine beauty and some of unspeakable hideousness, ever since. Some of the islanders were however on the coast at the time of the eruption. There, near to the village of Greensea, they founded the temple of the Elementals, which keeps alive the names of the ancient Powers on the mainland of Calia. > read kataraktas You read the scroll titled Kataraktas. The Elemental Power of Kataraktas ================================= One of the gifts you recieve from Lord Diabrecho is the power to summon a water weird that will give you gifts.

You can ask the water weird for two items, a decanter, or a flagon. The decanter contains an alcoholic liquid, where the flagon contains nothing but water.

Each member will carve three words into each Tool. The first shall be the God or Goddess of the element, which will enchant the Tool with the power of the element. The second will be the name of the member, which will transfer the energies of the element into the member. The third will be a Word of Power (a different one for each Tool), which will activate the Tool with the powers of that element. To construct these Elemental Tools, the members shall have to gather the necessary items, then visit the eastern chamber of the temple to forge them. Once properly forged, the God/Goddesses name shall be carved as well as the members name. The Words of Power shall only be carved when each member is ready. They will receive a vision when they have reached enlightenment and are ready to carve these Words onto the Tools.
