==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.
<br><br>
===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.
<br><br>
==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.
<br><br>
==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use. A small dock at the mouth of the Shal'Tirr'ol, which flows between section A and D1, has a boat going to Grubbins Port.
<br><br>
===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

<br><br>
===Archer Academy===
The Archer Academy sits at a crossroads in the forest to the west of Shal'Tirr'em. This is the primary location Archers go to train. Many archers follow the paths to combine Magic (those who have the ability) with Archery to become the deadly Arcane Archers.

<br><br>
===School of Necromantic Arts===
The School of Necromantic Arts is located somewhere along the eastern coast. Most Toloirans disdain what goes on there and they do not go there so its location is only generally known. The school has an agreement with the King to exist and the laws of Toloira are clear as to the practices they are allowed.
Members of this school are not allowed to become members of the Shal'Tirr'em Mage school at the same time.

This was the original Ral'Yenn'em.
With the recent sacking and subsequent occupation of the city by the Rising Eclipse, most of the buildings, aside from the keep, are destroyed and it was one of the Rising Eclipse strongholds.

It is now an uninhabitable place.

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a Toloira background==
These guidelines may be expanded as necessary.

You can select any of the Elf sub races (as long as it has elf in the name) when creating a PC via the Custom Race Golem on the Islands module. The above IC information are general guidelines for selecting a birthplace and to help you develop your character's backstory. Each type of sub-elf exists in each of the primary cities, just the sub-elf that is the majority is indicated for each city.

New Player Characters are currently not eligible to start out as Royalty, Nobility, nor anyone with, or had, power or influence. This is a reward in itself and something the PC can work towards which brings its own prestige. Options for a notable family parent can include, but are not limited to, moderately wealthy merchant, master crafter, a retired officer of a particular city's guard.... Use common sense. If you have no common sense, run your idea by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

Also, new Player Characters are from the new generation of Elves and only know Toloira; they did not exist on the old world so have no memories of it, only stories passed down from parents and other elders.

If you have a specific concept in mind that is not covered here, run it by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a non-Toloira background==
Any PC race can wash up on Toloira, and normal rules apply.

Terror2001: /* Toloira Island */

{{Navi|Lore|Islands}}

{{Island Info
| p_race = Elf
| population = 10000
| p_export = Wood Products
}}

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.
<br><br>
===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.
<br><br>
==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.
<br><br>
==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves.

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use. A small dock at the mouth of the Shal'Tirr'ol, which flows between section A and D1, has a boat going to Grubbins Port.
<br><br>
===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

The School of Necromantic Arts is located somewhere along the eastern coast. Most Toloirans disdain what goes on there and they do not go there so its location is only generally known. The school has an agreement with the King to exist and the laws of Toloira are clear as to the practices they are allowed.
Members of this school are not allowed to become members of the Shal'Tirr'em Mage school at the same time.

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a Toloira background==
These guidelines may be expanded as necessary.

You can select any of the Elf sub races (as long as it has elf in the name) when creating a PC via the Custom Race Golem on the Islands module. The above IC information are general guidelines for selecting a birthplace and to help you develop your character's backstory. Each type of sub-elf exists in each of the primary cities, just the sub-elf that is the majority is indicated for each city.

New Player Characters are currently not eligible to start out as Royalty, Nobility, nor anyone with, or had, power or influence. This is a reward in itself and something the PC can work towards which brings its own prestige. Options for a notable family parent can include, but are not limited to, moderately wealthy merchant, master crafter, a retired officer of a particular city's guard.... Use common sense. If you have no common sense, run your idea by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

Also, new Player Characters are from the new generation of Elves and only know Toloira; they did not exist on the old world so have no memories of it, only stories passed down from parents and other elders.

If you have a specific concept in mind that is not covered here, run it by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

Island of Eternity

2012-12-10T18:11:08Z

Terror2001: /* Ral'Yenn'em */

{{Navi|Lore|Islands}}

{{Island Info
| p_race = Elf
| population = 10000
| p_export = Wood Products
}}

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.
<br><br>
===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.
<br><br>
==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.
<br><br>
==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

====Mage School====
The Mage School in Shal'Tirr'em is the main place aspiring young mages from around the island go to learn the ways of the arcane. The school is free so long as the mages return the favor by enlisting in the Toloira Guard (any city) to help protect their homeland from all threats, for at least 4 years of service. Once a mage can cast 5th level spells they are dismissed from the shcool. A few Senior Mages and higher do sometimes remain at the school to teach young mages. Members of the Mage school are not allowed to be members of the School of Necromantic Arts at the same time.

====Exports====

<del>Regional city in area B, exports northern coastal and forest products and unusual animal meat. Has the highest concentration of Ghost Elves. Sits on the southeastern edge of the North frozen lands. Early in the settling of Toloira a great Sea Monster attacked the newly growing town and demolished it. Count Amalamne was amoung the town's defenders who battled the monster but was eaten by it and his body never recovered. The Sea Monster left and the town was rebuilt for the most part and a statue of the Count was erected to memorialize him. It has been many years since then and the Countess still rules there. They have constant problems with Snowbolds and Frozen Orcs.</del>

With the recent sacking and subsequent occupation of the city by the Rising Eclipse, most of the buildings, aside from the keep, are destroyed and it is one of the Rising Eclipse strongholds.

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.
<br><br>
===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.
<br><br>
==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.
<br><br>
==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

The school is free so long as the mages return the favor by enlisting in the Toloira Guard (any city) to help protect their homeland from all threats, for at least 4 years of service. Once a mage can cast 5th level spells they are dismissed from the shcool. A few Senior Mages and higher do sometimes remain at the school to teach young mages. Members of the Mage school are not allowed to be members of the School of Necromantic Arts at the same time.

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use. A small dock at the mouth of the Shal'Tirr'ol, which flows between section A and D1, has a boat going to Grubbins Port.
<br><br>
===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

Members of this school are not allowed to become members of the Shal'Tirr'em Mage school at the same time.

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a Toloira background==
These guidelines may be expanded as necessary.

You can select any of the Elf sub races (as long as it has elf in the name) when creating a PC via the Custom Race Golem on the Islands module. The above IC information are general guidelines for selecting a birthplace and to help you develop your character's backstory. Each type of sub-elf exists in each of the primary cities, just the sub-elf that is the majority is indicated for each city.

New Player Characters are currently not eligible to start out as Royalty, Nobility, nor anyone with, or had, power or influence. This is a reward in itself and something the PC can work towards which brings its own prestige. Options for a notable family parent can include, but are not limited to, moderately wealthy merchant, master crafter, a retired officer of a particular city's guard.... Use common sense. If you have no common sense, run your idea by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

Also, new Player Characters are from the new generation of Elves and only know Toloira; they did not exist on the old world so have no memories of it, only stories passed down from parents and other elders.

If you have a specific concept in mind that is not covered here, run it by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

Island of Eternity

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

Island of Eternity

2012-06-03T17:58:41Z

Terror2001: /* Toloira Island */

{{Navi|Lore|Islands}}

{{Island Info
| p_race = Elf
| population = 10000
| p_export = Wood Products
}}

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use. A small dock at the mouth of the Shal'Tirr'ol, which flows between section A and D1, has a boat going to Grubbins Port.

===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a Toloira background==
These guidelines may be expanded as necessary.

You can select any of the Elf sub races (as long as it has elf in the name) when creating a PC via the Custom Race Golem on the Islands module. The above IC information are general guidelines for selecting a birthplace and to help you develop your character's backstory. Each type of sub-elf exists in each of the primary cities, just the sub-elf that is the majority is indicated for each city.

New Player Characters are currently not eligible to start out as Royalty, Nobility, nor anyone with, or had, power or influence. This is a reward in itself and something the PC can work towards which brings its own prestige. Options for a notable family parent can include, but are not limited to, moderately wealthy merchant, master crafter, a retired officer of a particular city's guard.... Use common sense. If you have no common sense, run your idea by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

Also, new Player Characters are from the new generation of Elves and only know Toloira; they did not exist on the old world so have no memories of it, only stories passed down from parents and other elders.

If you have a specific concept in mind that is not covered here, run it by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use.

===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a Toloira background==
These guidelines may be expanded as necessary.

You can select any of the Elf sub races (as long as it has elf in the name) when creating a PC via the Custom Race Golem on the Islands module. The above IC information are general guidelines for selecting a birthplace and to help you develop your character's backstory. Each type of sub-elf exists in each of the primary cities, just the sub-elf that is the majority is indicated for each city.

New Player Characters are currently not eligible to start out as Royalty, Nobility, nor anyone with, or had, power or influence. This is a reward in itself and something the PC can work towards which brings its own prestige. Options for a notable family parent can include, but are not limited to, moderately wealthy merchant, master crafter, a retired officer of a particular city's guard.... Use common sense. If you have no common sense, run your idea by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

Also, new Player Characters are from the new generation of Elves and only know Toloira; they did not exist on the old world so have no memories of it, only stories passed down from parents and other elders.

If you have a specific concept in mind that is not covered here, run it by the DM team [mailto:dms@arkaz.com dms@arkaz.com] .

''Note knowledge of this system should be treated as in character in game information (akin to crafting recipes). You are free to share basic information in character post but do not divulge any taming or training techniques in the forums or on this wiki.''

''There are a handful of books in game on the various aspects of Companion training (The ranger written books may not be useful for they speak of a different set of techniques)''

There may be creatures in the world that refuse to ever be tamed but more likely the knowledge to tame was lost and just needs to be discovered again. If you have attempted to tame such a creature and you have exhausted all known knowledge you may start on a quest to research the needed knowledge. Look to the wandering elder druids of this world ... I am told there are some waiting to help those willing to take on such a quest if you are willing to share this information once the quest is completed.

Island of Eternity

Terror2001: /* OOC: Starting a new PC with a Toloira background */

{{Navi|Lore|Islands}}

{{Island Info
| p_race = Elf
| population = 10000
| p_export = Wood Products
}}

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

Once a mage can cast 5th level spells they are dismissed from the shcool. A few Senior Mages and higher do sometimes remain at the school to teach young mages.

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use. A small dock at the mouth of the Shal'Tirr'ol, which flows between section A and D1, has a boat going to Grubbins Port.

===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use. A small dock at the mouth of the Shal'Tirr'ol, which flows between section A and D1, has a boat going to Grubbins Port.

===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

You can select any of the Elf sub races (as long as it has elf in the name) when creating a PC via the Custom Race Golem on the Islands module. The above IC information are general guidelines for selecting a birthplace and to help you develop your character's backstory. Each type of sub-elf exists in each of the primary cities, just the sub-elf that is the majority is indicated for each city.

New Player Characters are currently not eligible to start out as Royalty, Nobility, nor anyone with or had power or influence. This is a reward in itself and something the PC can work towards which brings its own prestige. Options for a notable family parent can include, but are not limited to, wealthy merchant, master crafter, a retired officer of a particular city's guard.... Use common sense. If you have no common sense, run your idea by the DM team (dms@arkaz.com).

Also, new Player Characters are from the new generation of Elves and only know Toloira; they did not exist on the old world so have no memories of it, only stories passed down from parents and other elders.

Island of Eternity

{{Island Info
| p_race = Elf

| p_export = Wood Products
}}

==History==

A study of '''Toloira''' (Island of Eternity) by [[Alvin Shr'ug]] (translated from elvish):

The island that is called by the [[Elf|Elves]] "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taken away and he stayed there.

If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.

More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.

A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it... some got lost. The elves who found it remained on the island and built wondrous cities there.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientists are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is, and where the crystal came from.

===The Great Cataclysm===

This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.

==General==
From king to commoner it is mostly a benevolant society and great respect for nature and the land. Each person has their functions to fulfill and most are not envious or jealous of one another's station in life since each person tends to the land in some way.
Recently "outsiders" have started visiting Toloira a lot more frequently. The Elves are, in general, still a little Xenophobic regarding non-Toloirans, but they are slowly changing to be more accepting of other people.

==Religion==
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.

====Mage School====
The Mage School in Shal'Tirr'em is the main place aspiring young mages from around the island go to learn the ways of the arcane. The school is free so long as the mages return the favor by enlisting in the Toloira Guard (any city) to help protect their homeland from all threats, for at least 4 years of service. Once a mage can cast 5th level spells they are dismissed from the shcool. A few Senior Mages and higher do sometimes remain at the school to teach young mages. Members of the Mage school are not allowed to be members of the School of Necromantic Arts at the same time.

====Exports====
Many forest products and unusual plants from Shal'Tirr Lake.

<del>Regional city in area B, exports northern coastal and forest products and unusual animal meat. Has the highest concentration of Ghost Elves. Sits on the southeastern edge of the North frozen lands. Early in the settling of Toloira a great Sea Monster attacked the newly growing town and demolished it. Count Amalamne was amoung the town's defenders who battled the monster but was eaten by it and his body never recovered. The Sea Monster left and the town was rebuilt for the most part and a statue of the Count was erected to memorialize him. It has been many years since then and the Countess still rules there. They have constant problems with Snowbolds and Frozen Orcs.</del>

With the recent sacking and subsequent occupation of the city by the Rising Eclipse, most of the buildings, aside from the keep, are destroyed and it is one of the Rising Eclipse strongholds.

===Trade===
Trade between the communities is via caravans using roads across the lowlands. Generally the mountains are not passable by caravans, but there are a few mountain passes that adventurers may use. A small dock at the mouth of the Shal'Tirr'ol, which flows between section A and D1, has a boat going to Grubbins Port.

===Intraisland Travel===
Free travel is mostly done on foot following established roads. For some specific destinations Tigers can be ridden for a small fee. Fast travel between towns, by individuals, is via Wyvern riding for a modest fee. Each major town has a Wyvern Tower where the Wyverns are kept and trained by Handlers. The towers are tall for ease of landing and to keep the Wyverns away from the general populous.

==Points of Interest not in cities==
===The World Stone===
{|border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" width="100%"
|-
|
High up in the mountains within a crater lies the World Stone of Toloira. It is guarded by an "outsider" Elf named [[Da'emona]].
|}

===Archer Academy===
{|border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" width="100%"
|-
|
The Archer Academy sits at a crossroads in the forest to the west of Shal'Tirr'em. This is the primary location Archers go to train. Many archers follow the paths to combine Magic (those who have the ability) with Archery to become the deadly Arcane Archers.

===School of Necromantic Arts===
{|border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" width="100%"
|-
|
The School of Necromantic Arts is located somewhere along the eastern coast. Most Toloirans disdain what goes on there and they do not go there so its location is only generally known. The school has an agreement with the King to exist and the laws of Toloira are clear as to the practices they are allowed.
Members of this school are not allowed to become members of the Shal'Tirr'em Mage school at the same time.

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a Toloira background==
You can select any of the Elf sub races (as long as it has elf in the name) when creating a PC via the Custom Race Golem on the Islands module. The above IC information are general guidelines for selecting a birthplace and to help you develop your character's backstory. Each type of sub-elf exists in each of the primary cities, just the sub-elf that is the majority is indicated for each city.

New Player Characters are currently not eligible to start out as Royalty or Nobility. This is a reward in itself and something the PC can work towards which brings its own prestige. Options for a notable family parent can include, but are not limited to, wealthy merchant, master crafter, a retired officer of a particular city's guard....

Also, new Player Characters are from the new generation of Elves and only know Toloira; they did not exist on the old world so have no memories of it, only stories passed down from parents and other elders.

If you have a specific concept in mind that is not covered here, run it by the DM team.

==OOC: Starting a new PC with a non-Toloira background==
Any PC race can wash up on Toloira, and normal rules apply.
