L24.160 Ropelancer's Edifice

-
A transcendental work of art said to have been created by the legendary Ropelancer, who, through the sheer mastery of the lance became enlightened to the root of martial geometries, was capable of using supple rope as a powerful lance.

During his ascension he carved a piece of petrified bark into a complex rope of undescribable curvature capable of withstanding the winds of the upper strata perilous, desolate Windflayed Sprig of the Banded Qeleres.

The Edifice now serves as a dangerous site of pilgrimage to numerous followers of the martial ways, and many perish trying the see it in person with hopes of gleaning the secrets left by the Ropelancer.

D24.185 Prison of the Lothgem

-
Lothgem, a hideous uncut spinel the size of a fist levitating above a tarnished silver pedestal, surrounded by walls made of mosaics of precious jewels depicting praying Dwarven monks.  It is dull to the point it darkens the light about it. When held, it repels all manner of jewels, crystals and precious stones, and may even repel magical precious stones when on a 1 of a 1d6 roll.  The Lothgem is sentient but reticent, and utterly despises all creatures who wear any sort of precious jewelry, and may forcefully repel such creatures adornments depending on its whims. Conversely, it likes the company of tarnished, rusty or scratched stones and may decide to accompany those adorned by them.
