The ancestral home of the elf clan "Trell". It now stands abandoned by all save one,"Lord Mavek". After his clan left him he has lovingly cared for his forest kingdom,in hopes that he will one day have a new clan to reside in his vast city in the trees. The magic that abounds in the province of Darkover is strong. The forest itself lays on one of the rare magical convergences. Born within this convergence, Lord Mavek became part of it,making him unbeatable within his forest home. His connection to this place also makes him unkillable as his dead body and free soul return to the place of his birth where they are reconstituted and rejoined.
The forest is now prospering once again as the mighty lord of Darkover has begun to rebuild the his clan,"THE HOUSE OF TRELL". The few who have now come forward have sworn oath to defend Darkover,the clan,the clans allies,and loyalty to the clans lord. No damage can be inflicted upon any person within this forest except by Lord Maveks will.
The city itself is composed of many buildings: Magical labs,Residential dwellings,A Tavern,A Weapon Smith Hall ,shops of every kind,a magical armory,and Lord Maveks own royal home (pictured above right). These all are connected by sturdy living bridges which span from tree to tree.
Pictured to the right is the only visible ground entry to the tree top city. |
