Description: Along the Southeast Wall of ____ sits a large manor shrouded in willow trees, the architecture angular and foreboding. The frosted glass upon each window allows only shadows to be seen shifting within. A large courtyard with a path leading up to a series of stone steps ends in a large, tall door with a heavy metal knocked upon each side, a sign above it heralded by a large yellow star painted upon the wood with an eye upon its center. Upon the sign are the words “Ar-Arkosh” in Vithmi, translated as “The Magisterium.”
A placard beside the door reads the following in Vithmi: “Knock ye, for your witch wards, magicked armaments, and Dragon-magicked tools, or for curiosity if ye be brave and wise.” A placard upon the opposite side reads the same thing, but in the language of Kokolath. Were one to bang the knocker upon the door, a string strung through the building would jiggle a bell faintly, summoning Aeraku to travel slowly from his workshop to the library reception area.
The Magisterium is a residence, library, and magical workshop. The main door opens up into a large library with a reception desk that holds pre-printed contracts and visitation ledgers that are required to be filled out for further services and vistation. This library contains books on the following subjects for reference when planning or discussing a commission:
- Apprentice-Level Sciences, Trades, & Non-World Magic Crafts
- Common knowledge on the varieties of Dragonshards.
- Bestiaries for T3 or less animals from Atinaw.
- Basic maps of the known world and its countries.
From the library, one set of doors leads to the living quarters section of the home, including stairs to a hall of bedrooms and a kitchen area for basic living. Each room is furnished with a bed, wash basin, and desk. Each is stocked with materials necessary for study, as Aeraku enjoys harboring scholars or hedge mages.
The other door is locked, and leads to a hallway that connects first to a large workshop with a variety of well-organized tools Aeraku has collected to fashion objects with smithing, tailoring, and jewelcrafting, and then at the end there is a large door kept leading to Aeraku’s Laboratory. This area contains all the furnishings necessary for Aeraku’s Runeforging trade, and there is a rather expensive walk-in vault off to one side where he wisely stores his creations, expensive reagents, and private notes or correspondence.
Dragonshards are sourced locally.
