JINGO: Added request for Enchanter title

== ToDo ==
To help convert to TitleReq's and move to correct namespace see: [[Titles/ToDo]] --[[User:Callek|Callek]] 06:12, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

<s>
== Adding a new Title ==

Adding a new title is an easy process.

* go to the Titles article for the category it is in, (such as [[Survival Titles 1]] - note that this is different from the subcategory page eg. [[:Category:Survival 1 Titles]])
* Edit the page
* You should see, in the list, something like
<pre><nowiki>{{:SomeTitle}}
|-
{{:SomeOtherTitle}}
|-</nowiki>
...
</pre>
* Notice a pattern here? Good, add the following
<pre><nowiki>{{:MyNewTitle}}
|-</nowiki></pre>
* Just like the pattern allready suggests. (being sure to replace the word "MyNewTitle" with the actual title you are creating.
* Save the page.
* Scan the page for the red-link to the new title page, and select it to edit it.
* Use the template <nowiki>{{title}}</nowiki> to add in the new title page, (add any special notes below the template in a <nowiki><noinclude /></nowiki> section
* See [[Template:Title]] for more information on how to enter the title itself.

Any questions, see [[User_talk:Callek|Callek]] or [[User_talk:Naeya|Naeya]].

==Title chart bugginess==
Whatever changes people are updating the title pages with are causing the charts to not work anymore(e.g. Astrology, criminal titles). I can't figure out exactly what is causing it though to fix it. --[[User:Choson|Choson]] 08:29, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
:Its something to do with the Title: namespace. I can't figure out how to make it pull the Tile:'''blahblah''' field, with Title in front either. [[User:Hithrael|Hithrael]] 14:55, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
::Help! This is still not fixed. I added all the title categories to the main page (many were missing, it's confusing to try and combine all the weapon titles, so let's seperate them the same way they're seperated in game. Unfortunately I can't get title charts to work on any of the new pages. (Forgot to sign at the time. Doing so now, a few days late.) --[[User:Kadru|Zeltaen]] 22:15, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
It looks like the titles that have the namespace 'xxx' instead of 'title:xxx' work properly. If we create new pages for each title with the correct namespace I think that will fix the issue but then someone will have to delete all the duplicate title articles and I'm not sure how to do that. If anyone has any idea please let me know I'd really like to get the title pages fixed.--[[User:Cierst|Cierst]] ([[User talk:Crazyfoolusc|talk]]) 17:41, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
So, uh, why do the title charts display both Title:/Title/, and /Title/, as separate entries? —[[User:ASCADAIHAN|ASCADAIHAN]] ([[User talk:ASCADAIHAN|talk]]) 15:09, 17 June 2021 (CDT)

== Wonky Title Stuff ==
===Pending===
<s>These are awaiting answers from other staff and/or Lyneya. Will update when I hear back! [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)</s> Responses gathered and issues resolved as best we can as of 9/29/2021. Remaining issues below with notes, will peek in again in the future for new/updated reports. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*Lunar Magic skill titles list "must be a Moon Mage" as requirement, despite the Trader magic release.
** Can you give me example titles to look at? Only "Conjurer" in the PrimaryMagic category has a guild req that I see, and it's intended to be Moon Mage/War Mage only. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*** I'm talking about the directly skill-based titles, the ones that exist for all skills. E.g. Elemental Magic Professional lists its requirements as "at least 400 ranks in Guild Magic" and "Must be a Warrior Mage, Bard", while Lunar Magic Professional lists its requirements as "at least 400 ranks in Guild Magic" and "Must be a Moon Mage". Surely the second requirement should be "Must be a Moon Mage, Trader"? [[User:ASCADAIHAN|ASCADAIHAN]] ([[User talk:ASCADAIHAN|talk]]) 21:38, 6 October 2021 (CDT)
*Moon Mage title 'Lucky' is listed as requiring having made one prediction, but a newly-rolled Moon Mage still talking to the guildleader can get the title.
** Leaving this in Pending for now, but I don't think there's a clean way of fixing this at the moment. You technically get credited with 1 prediction when you join the guild -- possibly math somewhere doesn't like a 0, I didn't dive too far. Can't just change the req to 2, because then people will bug that they "only predicted once but it says I need two!". Could just drop the prediction req, but need to tackle moonie folks on that. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*TITLE FIND NOW does not actually access the TITLE FIND functionality, instead merely spitting out the help messaging for the TITLE verb.
** This one looks to be an issue with the engine's parsing, and not something we can easily work around. Leaving this in pending for now, but it's likely we have to live with this one. "Of" and "The" are other words that tend to be stripped. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*[[Moon Mage]] title Enchanter was removed with the release of Enchanting. Possible to get this back as a [[Lore]] title based on Enchanting ranks?

===Resolved===
*[[Paladin]] titles that use Soulstate go by SAF, which seems odd.
** Other guilds may have referenced SAF -- they should all now say 'guild resource' now as a more player-friendly term. It's different for every guild, and has different ranges/meanings for each guild, and there's not an easy way to mass-define this clearly for TITLE FIND. For some guilds, a negative resource (behind the scenes) is good, for others positive is good. Soul State, Divine Outrage, Confidence, Elemental Charge, Shock, Devotion, and Ranger Bonus are some (but not all) guild resource examples. This may just have to be a nebulous thing players piece together with trial and error over time. Sorry! -- [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 05:52, 16 June 2021 (CDT)
*[[Barbarian]] Mage Bane title says they "Must not know Barbarian ability - (#9)."
** Revised messaging on this one to show <code>**Unknown**</code> before the ability #. Mage Bane points to an old ability, currently. A list of titles with this sort of indication would be handy for Lyneya's review/tweaks. -- [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 05:52, 16 June 2021 (CDT)
*Titles that require a specific number of spells in the Air Manipulation book don't display correctly, output is 'Must have at least 1 spells in the Air Manipulati', example would be Elemental Soldier, Elemental Enforcer, etc.
** This should be fixed, as well as a few other places where 'at least 1 Xs' might pop up. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*Paladin Titles 'Chivalrous Shield', 'Chikuraga Ikamaye', 'Stura Arumiz', and 'Haalik Showldh' have the requirement 'self'?
** This was an issue with how Protects were messaging. Should display properly now. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*Title '[[Title:Beast_Tamer|Beast Tamer]]' requires skill in Unknown
** This was caused by trying to check the old Animal Lore skill, which was largely converted to outdoorsmanship. I recognize the title now has two outdoorsmanship requirements, but this will be something Lyneya tackles with her review. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*More just language feedback, for Wild Archer "At least 350 ranks in Highest Distance Weapon" is such a weird way to say Ranged Weapon.
** It is weird! But not wrong! [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*Own a home. Stuff like Indweller and Lodger shows up on my Premium title list AND I can use it, despite req saying you can't own a home. Checked both in and out of the province where I own it, wondering if it might have worked like Dweller and Denizen (not the case).
** This should be fixed now. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*Typo on line that considers "urbanity" where your home is located: Must have house in '''an''' location with urbanity greater than [number].
** This should hopefully be fixed. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*Title 'Greedy' in category 'Trader' 2nd requirement says 'At least 15 ranks per circle in Empathy'. As a trader, I have 0 Empathy but have access to this title
** This should be fixed. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*All titles in 'Trader' category that require 'Trading' skill, state 'Guild Skill' instead. I assume it's referring to 'Trading' skill.
** yeah, this is true of all the guilds — MMs have 'Guild Skill' instead of Astrology, empaths have 'Guild Skill' instead of Empathy, and so on. Ditto 'Guild Magic', that's just PM. —[[User:ASCADAIHAN|ASCADAIHAN]] ([[User talk:ASCADAIHAN|talk]]) 15:09, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
** ^This. The same "skill" exists for everyone, you just see a different name in EXP depending on your guild -- Lunar Magic vs Elemental Magic vs Life Magic, etc. Same for guild skills -- Empathy vs Trading vs Summoning etc. Because everyone can look up everyone else's titles now, we can't easily translate the actual requirement vs who is checking TITLE FIND -- it'd be weird for trader titles to show they require 'Empathy' when an Emapth is checking. For clarity, substituting 'Guild Skill' and 'Guild Magic' made the most sense. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
*Some titles in 'Religion' category, like 'Follower', have a requirement of 'Must have 4 favors in a row'. Not too clear what that means, unless 4 favors in a row for a particular god.
** Not a bug, and yes -- it means 4 in a row from the same god/goddess. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
* Moon Mage titles 'Scion' and 'Shadebringer' are not attainable by a Heritage House member who meets the skill requirements — apparently Heritage House is not valid for the "must have sect" requirement. This might could be clarified.
** Never mind — these are Children of Kalestraum titles! Sneaky, sneaky! [[User:ASCADAIHAN|ASCADAIHAN]] ([[User talk:ASCADAIHAN|talk]]) 07:18, 21 June 2021 (CDT)
*Moon Mage titles 'Shadow Magician' and 'Shadow Weaver' require an unknown spell (Shadow Web?)
** Checking with moonie folks to clarify. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
** '''9/29/2021:''' These previously used the old/planned Eclipse or Clarify Gem spells, neither of which are valid. Per relevant GMs, these now require Shadow Web. Additionally, TF's "Blackhole" title was updated with the same change / same reason. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*Moon Mage title 'Transducer' requires 99 spells from the Enlightened Geometry list. Probably meant to be 9.
** '''9/29/2021:''' Per Moon Mage folks, this title was meant to be disabled/not usable, and a 99 spell req was how they required it. It's been shifted to our new way of 'disable this title' and should no longer show up in the system.
*There are two sets of requirements for 'Darkness' and one has 4 requirements where the other has none.
** Asking Lyneya + Moonie folks for clarification here. [[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 23:35, 17 June 2021 (CDT)
** '''9/29/2021:''' This is actually an issue with trying to list thief pretend reqs for titles in the thief category -- which shouldn't be a thing. Fix is in QC. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*[[Title:Magess]] still has a "must be female" requirement, despite the announcement that gender-based title things had been removed.
** '''9/29/2021:''' Magess, Magister, Magistra, and Magistress have all had their gender reqs removed. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*There are two sets of requirements for 'Horse Whisperer' and one has 13 requirements where the other has 2.
** '''9/29/2021:''' The lesser Horse Whisperer has been changed to a new 'Horse Caller' title.
*Ranger [[Title:Arch Hunter]] vs [[Title:Arch Huntress]] has an order of magnitude difference in Scouting required, I would have expected equal values.
** '''9/29/2021:''' Arch Huntress has had its guild skill req lifted to match Arch Hunter's.
* Ranger [[Title:Nature's Marksman]] has two different Outdoorsmanship requirements, for 50 and 200. --[[User:CRYPTODYNAMIC|CRYPTODYNAMIC]] ([[User talk:CRYPTODYNAMIC|talk]]) 17:38, 28 August 2021 (CDT)
** '''9/29/2021:''' A holdover issue from some skills combining. The lesser req has been dropped. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
*[[Title:Beast Tamer]] has two different Outdoorsmanship requirements.
** '''9/29/2021:''' Another holdover from some skills combining. The lesser req has been dropped. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)
* Ranger [[Title:Overshadower]] displays requirements for the Guild Skill and Scouting. If searched with a character other than Ranger, that guild skill is listed as well as Guild Skill. (ex. Empathy and Guild Skill)
** '''9/29/2021:''' This should be fixed. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)

** '''9/29/2021:''' This should be fixed. --[[User:DR-ZADRAES|DR-ZADRAES]] ([[User talk:DR-ZADRAES|talk]]) 15:41, 29 September 2021 (CDT)

__NOTOC__

==Description==
Thick, articulated hide plating covers the desert armadillo from its dripping, twitchy snout to its barbed tail. Perfectly adapted to blend into a desert environment, the animal's coloration is a mottled patchwork of sand and tan. With powerful claws for digging protective burrows, a barbed tail, and flexible plating that allows the creature to roll itself up tightly, the armadillo appears well built to defend itself.

==In Depth==
===Special Attacks===
Webbing: An adult desert armadillo rears up and spews forth a blast of stringy white webbing at you!

===Combat Notes===
*Standard Attacks: Armadillos use their claws to swipe, swing, slash, and lash at opponents.
*Armadillo Shields: Armadillos use their scale plating as an extraordinarily effective shield. Players should use attacks that bypass shield, such as the [[Lightning Bolt]] spell, or use blunt weapons to attack.

===Inventory/Loot===
It is wearing nothing! 
It is carrying nothing!

===Area Information===
The [[Dunes of Despair]] is a vast maze, but it is stable, so if you can read the twisted map you might be able to escape. The Dunes of Despair used to be inhabited by westanuryn and mihmen, but they have been replaced by adult and elder armadillos.

===Miscellaneous===
Armadillos were introduced into DragonRealms in early 2007. They first appeared as part of an invasion on the [[Northern Trade Route]] along side [[War Mammoth (creature)|War Mammoth]]s and other upper level creatures. They were a devestating force, especially the Elder Desert Armadillo. However, since that first invasion their skill level has become even higher.

* Stealths cap UNDER 1400 ranks. My lowest stealth at time of testing was 1400, and I learned nothing. Elders still teach a nice bit above this.
* Perception from HUNT and spotting Adults caps at LESS than 1350 perception.
* Per Madigan, 552 skinning seems gets about 30-40% success rate for skinning without any arranges.
* Per Djordje, 875 skinning starts to see consistent success fully arranged

JINGO: updated syntax to learn WM Cantrips

{{RTOC}}
Cantrips are [[guild association is::Moon Mage]] and [[guild association is::Warrior Mage]] [[page type is::ability|spell-like enchantments]] that require no mana to cast.

==Moon Mage cantrips==
Moon Mage cantrips are tied to the sect that the Moon Mage joins, although there are several general cantrips available to all Moon Mages as well. A quest to unlock cantrip knowledge must be completed before being able to learn any cantrips. Once knowledge of cantrips has been obtained, you can learn most cantrips from your sect representative, but some will require an additional quest. Moon Mage cantrips tend to have a small amount of utility, but not at the level of a spell. Most of them have a significant cool down period between uses, ranging from a handful of minutes to an hour.

Moon Mage cantrips are activated by using {{com|CHANT}} {{tt|CANTRIP <cantrip>}}
{{AbilityList|hmc}}
{{#ask:[[guild association is::Moon Mage]][[Ability type is::cantrip]]
|?pretty name is
|?spell abbreviation is

|?prerequisite
|?ability effect is
|format=template
|sort=ability path is,prerequisite
|template=AbilityList6
|link=none
|limit=100
}}
|}

==Warrior Mage cantrips==
Warrior Mage cantrips are elemental in nature, and are learned directly from any guildleader once the prerequisites are known. Warrior Mage cantrips tend to have very limited utility.

Grazhir

2018-08-28T16:08:41Z

JINGO: Updated skill required to learn Besoge after learning with 414/372/496 with a +49 Scholarship boost

{{RTOC}}

Grazhir is the now-destroyed fourth moon of [[Elanthia]], formerly alongside [[Yavash]], [[Xibar]], and [[Katamba]]. It was of a pearlescent, silvery-white hue and said to be the smallest of the moons.

== Mythology and the Cataclysm ==

Mythology has it that Grazhir was somehow the "egg" of the [[World Dragon]], and that its hatching caused to moon to cataclysmically explode. The [[World Dragon]] then wreaked havoc upon Elanthia, but was eventually soothed by the goddess [[Peri'el]], who continues to sing to it somewhere deep within the bowels of the earth in order to keep it pacified.

Another possibility that has been presented is some catastrophic celestial event - such as a meteorite strike - occurred which caused the moon to explode and collide with Elanthia, while simultaneously setting Katamba's surface or atmosphere on fire.

Whichever is true, the impact of the pieces of Grazhir on Elanthia was devastating. As the bulk of the shards landed in the ocean, massive tidal waves engulfed a great deal of the Kermorian and Albarian coastlines, utterly destroying the civilizations there. Its impact elsewhere was said to lead to fatal shockwaves, huge dust clouds and even volcanic eruptions.

== Connections to Gemstone IV ==

The fact that Grazhir seems to exist in the game world of [[GemStone|Gemstone IV]] has caused players to speculate the DragonRealms takes place in a time period that is the far future relative to Gemstone. Some locations and characteristics of both games' Elanthias parallel one another, but the world has been rearranged by several thousands of years of intervening history and at least one global near-apocalypse. In accordance with DragonRealms mythology, astronomers within Gemstone IV have noted that the moon (Makiri) appears oddly egg-shaped, and seems to be growing ever so slowly.

== Grazhir's Legacy ==

The bulk of Grazhir fell to [[Elanthia]] when it exploded, a vast number of its pieces landing in the [[Reshal Sea]] between mainland [[Kermoria]] and the [[Qi archipelago]], where they still lie. These Elanthia-bound pieces of Grazhir are still powerful enough to disrupt teleportational energy (making [[Teleport]] and [[Moongate]] more difficult to use on the islands) and possess the synergistic magical sympathy which makes [[Astral Travel]] possible. As a result, Grazhir shards are prized by [[Moon Mage|Moon Mages]] as artifacts of incredible magical power.

Once in deference to their rarity and now to aid lesser-abled mages in entering and exiting the [[Astral Plane]], the [[Naming Ritual]] is performed on each shard discovered by the Moon Mage guild and it is granted a unique name. Knowledge of this name and the unique pattern of sympathy it creates within the shard is necessary for most mages to use them to enter or exit the Astral Plane.

:Note: {{com|RECALL}} HEAVENS GRAZHIR will tell you the names of the shards you have learned.

===Aliaes===
:Name means "White Fire" in Gamgweth. Originally located on [[Taisgath]], Aliaes once powered the Taisgath side of the Heritage House turtle. It was not recovered by the guild after the turtle was destroyed and its whereabouts are currently unknown.
===Auilusi===
:Located behind the Peri'el Prayer Gate on [[Aesry]], within a grove of birch trees designated as a shrine to [[Peri'el]].
:Appearance: ''While unusually large, this Grazhir shard has a rough finish and dim coloration that seems more grey than silvery-white. Auilusi sits at the apex of a slender, white birch pedestal situated in the center of the grove.''
:Conduit Description: ''The ground below heaves and roils with fluid waves, though it remains stable against your weight. Beams of hot, silver light cut through the region in a perfectly horizontal web of connections, seemingly unaffected by the waves. Each stream is mirrored in the sky above, as each grey star is connected to the others by sharply defined lines, creating a lattice of alien constellations that stretch to the horizon. You also see the silvery-white shard Auilusi.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Tradition
===Asharshpar'i===
:Located in a hidden chamber in the catacombs beneath [[Oshu'ehhrsk Manor]] just south of [[Leth Deriel]], which is [[Bonedancer]] [[Lasarhhtha]]'s ancestral home.
:Appearance: ''Though shaped like a jagged stake, the shard has a silvery-white sheen as if it were regularly polished.''
:Conduit Description: ''Thousands of static stars, each hanging in the sky like a little white dot, look down upon a desert of black sand. Despite the night sky, the region is brightly lit by a web of burning energy that twists and spins through the air. A cold wind blows through the desert, stirring up clouds of black sand that disintegrate upon contact with the blazing web.''
:Pillar: Pillar of the Heavens

===Axis===
:The Grazhir shard known as Axis is the shard around which the Pillars rotate within the microcosm and is the largest whole piece of Grazhir known to exist. Its physical location on the Plane of Abiding is not currently known, though the Reshal Sea seems to be a likely location.
===Besoge===
:Located on [[Mer'kresh]] in Caress-of-the-Moons Manor, the home of a wealthy Moon Mage.
:Appearance: ''Besoge is tiny, even for a Grazhir shard, but almost spherical. Its surface has been polished so thoroughly that it looks like a pearl. Small, needle-like platinum pincers hold it a few inches above the top of a stained oak pedestal.''
:Conduit Description: ''Featureless greyness stretches in all directions, distinguishable from the Grey Expanse only by the sensation of earth below and an unrelenting cacophony. Voices cry out countless notes of anger and anguish: screams, feral growls and structureless wails all stepping over each other. Lines of power crisscross invisibly through the region, physically sensed only by radiant heat.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Secrets
===Dinegavren===
:Name means "Low Moon" in Gamgweth. Located in the basement of [[Gealeranendae College]] in [[Therenborough]], where it is used to power the turtle which links Therenborough to [[Throne City]].
:Appearance: ''Barely a finger's width in size, the silvery-white shard known as Dinegavren is shaped much like a crescent moon.
:Conduit Description: ''Buildings of irregular shape and size, each constructed from slick grey stones, dominate the landscape. Narrow cobblestone streets and dirt alleys wend their way between the buildings and through thick fog banks. Burning beams of light thread across the landscape indiscriminately, evaporating the fog they touch yet passing harmlessly through the structures.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Introspection

===Dor'na'torna===
:Named for the famous [[Skindancer]] [[Kir|Kir Dor'na'torna]]. Located within the crystal spire on the [[Arid Steppe]] ([[Trabe Plateau]] of [[Hibarnhvidar]]).
:Appearance: ''The shard known as Dor'na'torna is roughly the size of two Human thumbs put together. It stands in the center of the chamber, supported at the apex of a polished oak tripod.''
:Conduit Description: ''A desolate steppe of mist-grey grass stretches to the horizon under the cold light of Xibar. Though the air feels calm and the night sky is clear, the discolored grass whips and sways as though under assault by a storm. An intricate web of burning light runs across the steppe, its fierce beams in constant motion.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Tradition

===Emalerje===
:Located in the [[Crystal Hand Fortress]] in the [[Lesser Fist|Lesser Fist of Heaven]].
:Appearance: ''An unusually large and smooth Grazhir shard, Emalerje is about the size and shape of a good skipping stone. The shard is held aloft by two crystal pincers on the apex of a thin steel column.''
:Conduit Description: ''Monoliths of featureless grey rock rise up from a flat plain covered with ruddy ash. Each of the rocks is set at a right angle and precisely the same distance from the others, creating a uniform pattern that extends all the way to the horizon. Streams of burning, white energy discharge from one monolith to the next in a seemingly random order.''
:Pillar: Pillar of the Shrew

===Erekinzil===
:Located at the top of the Moon Mage guildhall on [[Taisgath]] island. Formerly known as Undarverjah before it underwent a mysterious, spontaneous transformation when Auilisi, Besoge and Tabelrem underwent the Naming Ritual.
:Appearance: ''The shard known as Erekinzil is little more than a silvery-white pebble. Its sides are so rough that rubbing the shard could abrade skin. The shard is held aloft by two crystal pincers on the apex of a thin steel column.''
:Conduit Description: ''A sandy expanse stretches out in every direction, littered with titanic, half-buried remains. Bones made out of black, glassy material stick out from the ground in distressed poses, left unceremoniously where the corpses fell. Arcs of burning silvery light discharge from one morbid pylon to the next, creating a crude maze of pathways. The Microcosm is visible in the azure sky, its conduits blazing with heat and, shaped as they are, reminiscent of a nova.''
:Former Conduit Description: ''Narrow caverns twist through barren grey rock without any apparent order. Wide puddles have accumulated on the ground, fed by icy water dripping from stalactites with clockwork regularity. Streams of silvery-white energy thread their way around the caverns, passing through the rock as though it wasn't there.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Fortune
===Marendin===
:Name means "Outsider" in Gamgweth. Located within the Moon Mage guildhall at the top of the [[Great Tower]] of [[Shard]].
:Appearance: ''Roughly the size of a gold coin, the shard known as Marendin is nearly severed in half by a deep gouge. The shard is held aloft by two crystal pincers on the apex of a thin steel column.''
:Conduit Description: ''Giant geometric solids wrought from black metal float in a cold, steel-grey void. The metal islands are connected to each other by narrow bridges, creating a network of shapes that seems to go on forever in every direction. Interconnected streams of burning energy sway around the void, passing harmlessly through the islands.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Secrets
===Mintais===
:Name means "Silver Sky" in Gamgweth. Located in Throne City, where it has long powered the turtle linked to [[Therenborough]].
:Appearance: ''Though shaped like a tiny jagged stake, the shard has a silvery-white sheen as if it were regularly polished.''
:Conduit Description: ''Broken and barren land stretches out beneath an impossibly large, bloated sun. Deep crevices slice through the ash-grey plain and jagged mountains rise to pierce the sky on the eastern horizon. Interwoven beams of silvery-white light dance across the blasted landscape and seem to extrude more heat than the bloated sun.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Fortune
===Rolagi===
:Originally located in Throne City, Rolagi once powered the Throne side of the [[Heritage House]] turtle. Was recovered after the turtle was destroyed and is currently located in the Observatory of the Southern Crossbow in [[Crossing]].
:Appearance: ''Despite having a slightly dark coloration near one tip, the shard known as Rolagi is otherwise pristine and silvery-white. The shard is held aloft by two crystal pincers on the apex of a thin steel column.''
:Conduit Description: ''Thousands upon thousands of stars hang in darkness above, around and even below: the heavens unfurl completely around you, without any hint of ground or a horizon. An invisible plane of force seems to extend through the area, providing a sense of substance in place of solid earth. An intricate web of burning energy slowly swirls all around you and seems to touch the distant stars.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Nightmares
===Tabelrem===
:Located at the top of the western tower of the Temple of the World Dragon in [[Muspar'i]].
:Appearance: ''The shard known as Tabelrem is a coral-like array of thin, silvery-white veins of rock. If it was a solid mass, it would be about the size of a Gnome's fist. Tabelrem sits embedded in a concave depression at the top of a short, wrought-iron pedestal.''
:Conduit Description: ''Curving beams of silvery light cut ethereally through stone ruins. The shape of wide boulevards and sprawling buildings can be picked out among the rubble, but the only standing structure is a gigantic, up-thrust sword in the far distance. A thousand stars look down upon the desolation, but they do not shine; each one is simply a lifeless dot in the sky.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Nightmares

===Tamigen===
:Located in the [[Cragstone Vale]] in [[Raven's Point]] within a [[Dragon Priest]] shrine to the World Dragon.
:Appearance: ''Tamigen is made of a silvery-white rock. Places on its surface show a pearly luster, and on its larger end, a blackened scar remains from its fiery descent.''
:Conduit Description: ''A web of silvery-white light dances through space. There is no other landscape visible around you, only a pattern of burning light that seems to stretch infinitely through a void as black as the space between the stars. A constant murmur reverberates through the cold void, as though the darkness is trying to speak.''
:Pillar: Pillar of the Heavens

===Taniendar===
:Located at the top of the [[Riverhaven]] Moon Mage guildhall spire.
:Appearance: ''About the size of a Human's pinky, time and violent chipping have caused a row of gouges to appear along one side of the shard. The shard is held aloft by two crystal pincers on the apex of a thin steel column.''
:Conduit Description: ''Rainbow auroras slither across the sky, so vivid that they almost entirely obscure the pinpricks of starlight above them. Light reflects off the perfectly smooth ground like a giant mirror, causing the prismatic colors to twist and flicker everywhere. In contrast to this chaos of hues, sharply defined beams of silvery-white light cut through the landscape, untainted by the auroras and not reflected by the ground.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Introspection
===Teloish===
:Name means "Sword Idea" in Gamgweth. Its precise location is unknown, but it is thought to occupy a space where the [[Plane of Abiding]] and the [[Plane of Probability]] overlap. This shard is protected by special wards which make the pattern of its name unlearnable.
:Appearance: ''Jagged and roughly the size of a Human fingernail, the Grazhir shard Teloish levitates three feet off the ground with no obvious means of support.''
:Conduit Description: It's currently impossible for player characters to traverse the Teloish conduit. ''

===Vellano===
:Located within a monolithic black dome capped with crystal on the docks of [[Fang Cove]].
:Though Fang Cove is an estate holder holding, the docks and Grazhir shard are open to the public.
:Named by [[Tozu]] Ayochi
:Appearance: ''Nearly six inches long and extremely slender, the edges of the glossy shard are razor :sharp. It is mounted lengthwise with each end supported by a crystal pincer.
:Conduit Description: ''Endless variegated hallways stretch before you, eerily reminiscent of stained glass. Depicted are fragments of hauntingly beautiful dreams you've long since forgotten. Occasionally, a section explodes silently inward as a ribbon of burning light brushes against the outside, though the glass reforms itself in the wake of your passage. As you travel, you are accompanied only by the fracturing glass beneath your feet.

===Emalerje===
:Located in the [[Crystal Hand Fortress]] in the [[Lesser Fist|Lesser Fist of Heaven]].

:Conduit Description: ''Curving beams of silvery light cut ethereally through stone ruins. The shape of wide boulevards and sprawling buildings can be picked out among the rubble, but the only standing structure is a gigantic, up-thrust sword in the far distance.

:Conduit Description: ''A web of silvery-white light dances through space.

Grazhir

2018-06-07T16:46:20Z

JINGO: learned Vellano with lower requirements than listed, updating

{{RTOC}}

Grazhir is the now-destroyed fourth moon of [[Elanthia]], formerly alongside [[Yavash]], [[Xibar]], and [[Katamba]]. It was of a pearlescent, silvery-white hue and said to be the smallest of the moons.

== Mythology and the Cataclysm ==

Mythology has it that Grazhir was somehow the "egg" of the [[World Dragon]], and that its hatching caused to moon to cataclysmically explode. The [[World Dragon]] then wreaked havoc upon Elanthia, but was eventually soothed by the goddess [[Peri'el]], who continues to sing to it somewhere deep within the bowels of the earth in order to keep it pacified.

Another possibility that has been presented is some catastrophic celestial event - such as a meteorite strike - occurred which caused the moon to explode and collide with Elanthia, while simultaneously setting Katamba's surface or atmosphere on fire.

Whichever is true, the impact of the pieces of Grazhir on Elanthia was devastating. As the bulk of the shards landed in the ocean, massive tidal waves engulfed a great deal of the Kermorian and Albarian coastlines, utterly destroying the civilizations there. Its impact elsewhere was said to lead to fatal shockwaves, huge dust clouds and even volcanic eruptions.

== Connections to Gemstone IV ==

The fact that Grazhir seems to exist in the game world of [[GemStone|Gemstone IV]] has caused players to speculate the DragonRealms takes place in a time period that is the far future relative to Gemstone. Some locations and characteristics of both games' Elanthias parallel one another, but the world has been rearranged by several thousands of years of intervening history and at least one global near-apocalypse. In accordance with DragonRealms mythology, astronomers within Gemstone IV have noted that the moon (Makiri) appears oddly egg-shaped, and seems to be growing ever so slowly.

== Grazhir's Legacy ==

The bulk of Grazhir fell to [[Elanthia]] when it exploded, a vast number of its pieces landing in the [[Reshal Sea]] between mainland [[Kermoria]] and the [[Qi archipelago]], where they still lie. These Elanthia-bound pieces of Grazhir are still powerful enough to disrupt teleportational energy (making [[Teleport]] and [[Moongate]] more difficult to use on the islands) and possess the synergistic magical sympathy which makes [[Astral Travel]] possible. As a result, Grazhir shards are prized by [[Moon Mage|Moon Mages]] as artifacts of incredible magical power.

Once in deference to their rarity and now to aid lesser-abled mages in entering and exiting the [[Astral Plane]], the [[Naming Ritual]] is performed on each shard discovered by the Moon Mage guild and it is granted a unique name. Knowledge of this name and the unique pattern of sympathy it creates within the shard is necessary for most mages to use them to enter or exit the Astral Plane.

:Note: {{com|RECALL}} HEAVENS GRAZHIR will tell you the names of the shards you have learned.

===Aliaes===
:Name means "White Fire" in Gamgweth. Originally located on [[Taisgath]], Aliaes once powered the Taisgath side of the Heritage House turtle. It was not recovered by the guild after the turtle was destroyed and its whereabouts are currently unknown.
===Auilusi===
:Located behind the Peri'el Prayer Gate on [[Aesry]], within a grove of birch trees designated as a shrine to [[Peri'el]].
:Appearance: ''While unusually large, this Grazhir shard has a rough finish and dim coloration that seems more grey than silvery-white. Auilusi sits at the apex of a slender, white birch pedestal situated in the center of the grove.''
:Conduit Description: ''The ground below heaves and roils with fluid waves, though it remains stable against your weight. Beams of hot, silver light cut through the region in a perfectly horizontal web of connections, seemingly unaffected by the waves. Each stream is mirrored in the sky above, as each grey star is connected to the others by sharply defined lines, creating a lattice of alien constellations that stretch to the horizon. You also see the silvery-white shard Auilusi.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Tradition
===Asharshpar'i===
:Located in a hidden chamber in the catacombs beneath [[Oshu'ehhrsk Manor]] just south of [[Leth Deriel]], which is [[Bonedancer]] [[Lasarhhtha]]'s ancestral home.
:Appearance: ''Though shaped like a jagged stake, the shard has a silvery-white sheen as if it were regularly polished.''
:Conduit Description: ''Thousands of static stars, each hanging in the sky like a little white dot, look down upon a desert of black sand. Despite the night sky, the region is brightly lit by a web of burning energy that twists and spins through the air. A cold wind blows through the desert, stirring up clouds of black sand that disintegrate upon contact with the blazing web.''
:Pillar: Pillar of the Heavens

===Axis===
:The Grazhir shard known as Axis is the shard around which the Pillars rotate within the microcosm and is the largest whole piece of Grazhir known to exist. Its physical location on the Plane of Abiding is not currently known, though the Reshal Sea seems to be a likely location.
===Besoge===
:Located on [[Mer'kresh]] in Caress-of-the-Moons Manor, the home of a wealthy Moon Mage.
:Appearance: ''Besoge is tiny, even for a Grazhir shard, but almost spherical. Its surface has been polished so thoroughly that it looks like a pearl. Small, needle-like platinum pincers hold it a few inches above the top of a stained oak pedestal.''
:Conduit Description: ''Featureless greyness stretches in all directions, distinguishable from the Grey Expanse only by the sensation of earth below and an unrelenting cacophony. Voices cry out countless notes of anger and anguish: screams, feral growls and structureless wails all stepping over each other. Lines of power crisscross invisibly through the region, physically sensed only by radiant heat.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Secrets
===Dinegavren===
:Name means "Low Moon" in Gamgweth. Located in the basement of [[Gealeranendae College]] in [[Therenborough]], where it is used to power the turtle which links Therenborough to [[Throne City]].
:Appearance: ''Barely a finger's width in size, the silvery-white shard known as Dinegavren is shaped much like a crescent moon.
:Conduit Description: ''Buildings of irregular shape and size, each constructed from slick grey stones, dominate the landscape. Narrow cobblestone streets and dirt alleys wend their way between the buildings and through thick fog banks. Burning beams of light thread across the landscape indiscriminately, evaporating the fog they touch yet passing harmlessly through the structures.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Introspection

===Dor'na'torna===
:Named for the famous [[Skindancer]] [[Kir|Kir Dor'na'torna]]. Located within the crystal spire on the [[Arid Steppe]] ([[Trabe Plateau]] of [[Hibarnhvidar]]).
:Appearance: ''The shard known as Dor'na'torna is roughly the size of two Human thumbs put together. It stands in the center of the chamber, supported at the apex of a polished oak tripod.''
:Conduit Description: ''A desolate steppe of mist-grey grass stretches to the horizon under the cold light of Xibar. Though the air feels calm and the night sky is clear, the discolored grass whips and sways as though under assault by a storm. An intricate web of burning light runs across the steppe, its fierce beams in constant motion.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Tradition

===Emalerje===
:Located in the [[Crystal Hand Fortress]] in the [[Lesser Fist|Lesser Fist of Heaven]].
:Appearance: ''An unusually large and smooth Grazhir shard, Emalerje is about the size and shape of a good skipping stone. The shard is held aloft by two crystal pincers on the apex of a thin steel column.''
:Conduit Description: ''Monoliths of featureless grey rock rise up from a flat plain covered with ruddy ash. Each of the rocks is set at a right angle and precisely the same distance from the others, creating a uniform pattern that extends all the way to the horizon. Streams of burning, white energy discharge from one monolith to the next in a seemingly random order.''

The Microcosm is visible in the azure sky, its conduits blazing with heat and, shaped as they are, reminiscent of a nova.''

:Name means "Outsider" in Gamgweth. Located within the Moon Mage guildhall at the top of the [[Great Tower]] of [[Shard]].

:Appearance: ''Barely a finger's width in size, the silvery-white shard known as Dinegavren is shaped much like a crescent moon.
:Conduit Description: ''Buildings of irregular shape and size, each constructed from slick grey stones, dominate the landscape.

:Conduit Description: ''Curving beams of silvery light cut ethereally through stone ruins. The shape of wide boulevards and sprawling buildings can be picked out among the rubble, but the only standing structure is a gigantic, up-thrust sword in the far distance. A thousand stars look down upon the desolation, but they do not shine; each one is simply a lifeless dot in the sky.''

===Tamigen===
:Located in the [[Cragstone Vale]] in [[Raven's Point]] within a [[Dragon Priest]] shrine to the World Dragon.

Grazhir

2018-06-06T22:44:28Z

JINGO: I just memorized Marendin lower requirements than on the chart. Updating.

{{RTOC}}

Grazhir is the now-destroyed fourth moon of [[Elanthia]], formerly alongside [[Yavash]], [[Xibar]], and [[Katamba]]. It was of a pearlescent, silvery-white hue and said to be the smallest of the moons.

== Mythology and the Cataclysm ==

Mythology has it that Grazhir was somehow the "egg" of the [[World Dragon]], and that its hatching caused to moon to cataclysmically explode. The [[World Dragon]] then wreaked havoc upon Elanthia, but was eventually soothed by the goddess [[Peri'el]], who continues to sing to it somewhere deep within the bowels of the earth in order to keep it pacified.

Another possibility that has been presented is some catastrophic celestial event - such as a meteorite strike - occurred which caused the moon to explode and collide with Elanthia, while simultaneously setting Katamba's surface or atmosphere on fire.

Whichever is true, the impact of the pieces of Grazhir on Elanthia was devastating. As the bulk of the shards landed in the ocean, massive tidal waves engulfed a great deal of the Kermorian and Albarian coastlines, utterly destroying the civilizations there. Its impact elsewhere was said to lead to fatal shockwaves, huge dust clouds and even volcanic eruptions.

== Connections to Gemstone IV ==

The fact that Grazhir seems to exist in the game world of [[GemStone|Gemstone IV]] has caused players to speculate the DragonRealms takes place in a time period that is the far future relative to Gemstone. Some locations and characteristics of both games' Elanthias parallel one another, but the world has been rearranged by several thousands of years of intervening history and at least one global near-apocalypse. In accordance with DragonRealms mythology, astronomers within Gemstone IV have noted that the moon (Makiri) appears oddly egg-shaped, and seems to be growing ever so slowly.

== Grazhir's Legacy ==

The bulk of Grazhir fell to [[Elanthia]] when it exploded, a vast number of its pieces landing in the [[Reshal Sea]] between mainland [[Kermoria]] and the [[Qi archipelago]], where they still lie. These Elanthia-bound pieces of Grazhir are still powerful enough to disrupt teleportational energy (making [[Teleport]] and [[Moongate]] more difficult to use on the islands) and possess the synergistic magical sympathy which makes [[Astral Travel]] possible. As a result, Grazhir shards are prized by [[Moon Mage|Moon Mages]] as artifacts of incredible magical power.

Once in deference to their rarity and now to aid lesser-abled mages in entering and exiting the [[Astral Plane]], the [[Naming Ritual]] is performed on each shard discovered by the Moon Mage guild and it is granted a unique name. Knowledge of this name and the unique pattern of sympathy it creates within the shard is necessary for most mages to use them to enter or exit the Astral Plane.

:Note: {{com|RECALL}} HEAVENS GRAZHIR will tell you the names of the shards you have learned.

===Aliaes===
:Name means "White Fire" in Gamgweth. Originally located on [[Taisgath]], Aliaes once powered the Taisgath side of the Heritage House turtle. It was not recovered by the guild after the turtle was destroyed and its whereabouts are currently unknown.
===Auilusi===
:Located behind the Peri'el Prayer Gate on [[Aesry]], within a grove of birch trees designated as a shrine to [[Peri'el]].
:Appearance: ''While unusually large, this Grazhir shard has a rough finish and dim coloration that seems more grey than silvery-white. Auilusi sits at the apex of a slender, white birch pedestal situated in the center of the grove.''
:Conduit Description: ''The ground below heaves and roils with fluid waves, though it remains stable against your weight. Beams of hot, silver light cut through the region in a perfectly horizontal web of connections, seemingly unaffected by the waves. Each stream is mirrored in the sky above, as each grey star is connected to the others by sharply defined lines, creating a lattice of alien constellations that stretch to the horizon. You also see the silvery-white shard Auilusi.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Tradition
===Asharshpar'i===
:Located in a hidden chamber in the catacombs beneath [[Oshu'ehhrsk Manor]] just south of [[Leth Deriel]], which is [[Bonedancer]] [[Lasarhhtha]]'s ancestral home.
:Appearance: ''Though shaped like a jagged stake, the shard has a silvery-white sheen as if it were regularly polished.''
:Conduit Description: ''Thousands of static stars, each hanging in the sky like a little white dot, look down upon a desert of black sand. Despite the night sky, the region is brightly lit by a web of burning energy that twists and spins through the air. A cold wind blows through the desert, stirring up clouds of black sand that disintegrate upon contact with the blazing web.''
:Pillar: Pillar of the Heavens

===Axis===
:The Grazhir shard known as Axis is the shard around which the Pillars rotate within the microcosm and is the largest whole piece of Grazhir known to exist. Its physical location on the Plane of Abiding is not currently known, though the Reshal Sea seems to be a likely location.
===Besoge===
:Located on [[Mer'kresh]] in Caress-of-the-Moons Manor, the home of a wealthy Moon Mage.
:Appearance: ''Besoge is tiny, even for a Grazhir shard, but almost spherical. Its surface has been polished so thoroughly that it looks like a pearl. Small, needle-like platinum pincers hold it a few inches above the top of a stained oak pedestal.''
:Conduit Description: ''Featureless greyness stretches in all directions, distinguishable from the Grey Expanse only by the sensation of earth below and an unrelenting cacophony. Voices cry out countless notes of anger and anguish: screams, feral growls and structureless wails all stepping over each other. Lines of power crisscross invisibly through the region, physically sensed only by radiant heat.''
:Pillar: Pillar of Secrets
===Dinegavren===
:Name means "Low Moon" in Gamgweth. Located in the basement of [[Gealeranendae College]] in [[Therenborough]], where it is used to power the turtle which links Therenborough to [[Throne City]].
