Erythian Stars were an old piece of lore written well back in 2013 that have some fairly interesting concepts, even if taken from palantir from Lord of the Rings, but these things are never seen on the server nowadays. To keep it short, this is supposed to re-introduce these mystical objects in some form that allows for them to be more accessible to the overall player base while not becoming an overused or overpowered tool on the server.

Ewythian Staws wewe an owd piece of wowe wlitten weww back in 2013 that have some faiwwy intewesting concepts, even if taken fwom pawantiw fwom Wowd of the Wings, but these things awe nevew seen on the sewvew nowadays.

Erythian Stars are simply mystically empowered glass orbs centered by a rare gem that display either sight, sound, or emotion present on the opposite end of two connected Stars, for either mundane purposes such as checking in with a friend that lives far away or for more extreme purposes such as overwatching the border of a known area harboring great evil.

Foring a star is relatively simple, but the cost of creating one is great. All that is needed is a glass orb around the size of a head, a valuable gem such as an emerald or diamond within its center, and a willing participant. The participant must sacrifice either their sight, hearing, or capacity to feel emotion on any powerful level and bind the sacrificed sense as well as a small fragment of their soul to the object, permanently binding the emotion or sense to the newly forged orb. While this requires a fair bit of study into the soul and its workings, the damage done is minimal and does not create any form of phylactery of the sort as the soul’s severed part turns into energy to power the orb. As a result only one Star can be made per person, and anyone that is used in the orb’s creation will be mildly affected by holy magics that cause damage to beings with damaged or irregular souls. Finally, the orb does not gain any durability, so it’d be as easy as shattering glass to destroy it, making these useful orbs quite costly.

Foling a staw is wewativewy simpwe, but the cost of cweating one is gweat. Aww that is needed is a gwass owb awound the size of a head, a vawuabre gem such as an emewawd ow diamond lithin its center, and a liwling pawticipant. The pawticipant must saclifice eithew theiw sight, healing, ow capacity to feew emotion on any powewful wevew and bind the saclificed sense as weww as a smaww fwagment of theiw soul to the object, pewmanentwy binding the emotion ow sense to the newwy fowged owb. Whiwe this wequiwes a faiw bit of study into the soul and its wowkings, the damage done is minimaw and does not cweate any fowm of phywactewy of the sowt as the soul’s sevewed pawt tulns into enewgy to powew the owb. As a wesult onwy one Staw can be made pew pewson, and anyone that is used in the owb’s cweation liww be miwdwy affected by howy magics that cause damage to beings lith damaged ow iwwegulaw souls. Finawwy, the owb does not gain any dulability, so it’d be as easy as shatteling gwass to destwoy it, making these useful owbs quite costwy.

Similar to the other Stars, a link must be formed by having the creators of each star come together and willingly unify the two artifacts, the link being unbreakable and irreplaceable when formed.

The Stars of Ansíen are ones designed with the intent of viewing an area, the area being either another Erythian Star or a Tower of Sántorr. Two linked Erythian Stars would act as if the two users of the mystical orbs were in the same room as one another, their vision being projected on either end. The two Stars must be linked with each creator’s willing consent and both stars present in the same area, effectively melding the two gems into one half of the same whole. The benefit of this is that the opposite gem can view the area where they’re located by simply looking at the other star, while the downside is that no sound or other senses pass through the star, making it only useful for visual use.

The two Staws must be linked lith each cweatow’s liwling consent and both staws pwesent in the same awea, effectivewy mewding the two gems into one hawf of the same whowe.

The other scenario in which a Erythian Star would be classified as a Star of Ansíen would be linking a star to a Tower of Sántorr, or a “Viewing Tower” in common terms. This requires the Starforger to bring the Star to a functioning Tower of Sántorr’s peak where the Star can be linked to the tower. After doing so, the Star will display a similar all-around view of the area around the tower.

Finally, a Tower of Sántorr is a megastructure that appears in the world as an anomaly, the creation and requirements of what is and isn’t being unknown to both the first Starforgers as well as the common world as well. Instead, these towers seem to form out of anything, including the tallest tree in a forest, a guard tower in a city, or even the highest hill in the countryside. As a result finding one is near impossible without some form of supernatural aid, and creating one is an even more impossible task.

An Active Ewythian Staw


Fowging A Staw


Foling a staw is wewativewy simpwe, but the cost of cweating one is gweat. Aww that is needed is a gwass owb awound the size of a head, a vawuabre gem such as an emewawd ow diamond lithin its center, and a liwling pawticipant. The pawticipant must saclifice eithew theiw sight, healing, ow capacity to feew emotion on any powewful wevew and bind the saclificed sense as weww as a smaww fwagment of theiw soul to the object, pewmanentwy binding the emotion ow sense to the newwy fowged owb.

As a wesult onwy one Staw can be made pew pewson, and anyone that is used in the owb’s cweation liww be miwdwy affected by howy magics that cause damage to beings lith damaged ow iwwegulaw souls. Finawwy, the owb does not gain any dulability, so it’d be as easy as shatteling gwass to destwoy it, making these useful owbs quite costwy.


Staws Of Andun


The Staws of Andun, ow Staws of Emotion, do as the name implies and links the emotions of those on eithew end of the two-way system. If anyone wewe to gwab onto one staw, they’d feew eithew nothing - as in most cases - ow eithew the emotions of the pewson howding onto the othew staw, entiwewy wepwacing theiw own fow the dulation. Simiwaw to the othew Staws, a link must be fowmed by having the cweatows of each staw come togethew and liwlingwy unify the two awtifacts, the link being unbreakabre and iwwepwaceabre when fowmed.


Guidelines

Onwy emotion passes thwough each Staw.

Touch is wequiwed on both ends fow this Staw.

The wespective cweatows of each Staw must bring both gems togethew and liwlingwy mewge them, binding them in a simiwaw way to cweating the Ewythian Staws.

Even if one Staw is destwoyed, the othew can nevew be we-linked, making the pwocess one to be considewed if this woute is to be taken lith the Staw.



Staws of Ceawm


Finawwy, the Staws of Ceawm, ow Staws of Sound, twansfew sound between two owbs in a wadius awound it instead of vision ow emotion. Touching these staws have no speciaw effect unwess both awe touched at once, in which case the usew liww not heaw anything they’d nowmawwy heaw, but wathew whatevew the pewson on the opposing Staw heawd, and vice vewsa. As lith the othew Staws, a link is wequiwed between two Staws.


Guidelines

Onwy sound passes thwough each Staw.

The wespective cweatows of each Staw must bring both gems togethew and liwlingwy mewge them, binding them in a simiwaw way to cweating the Ewythian Staws.

Even if one Staw is destwoyed, the othew can nevew be we-linked, making the pwocess one to be considewed if this woute is to be taken lith the Staw.

Staws Of Ansíen


The Staws of Ansíen awe ones designed lith the intent of vieling an awea, the awea being eithew anothew Ewythian Staw ow a Towew of Sántoww. Two linked Ewythian Staws would act as if the two usews of the mysticaw owbs wewe in the same woom as one anothew, theiw vision being pwojected on eithew end. The two Staws must be linked lith each cweatow’s liwling consent and both staws pwesent in the same awea, effectivewy mewding the two gems into one hawf of the same whowe. The benefit of this is that the opposite gem can view the awea whewe they’we wocated by simpwy wooking at the othew staw, whiwe the downside is that no sound ow othew senses pass thwough the staw, making it onwy useful fow visuaw use.


Guidelines

Onwy sight passes thwough each Staw.

The wespective cweatows of each Staw must bring both gems togethew and liwlingwy mewge them, binding them in a simiwaw way to cweating the Ewythian Staws.

Even if one Staw is destwoyed, the othew can nevew be we-linked, making the pwocess one to be considewed if this woute is to be taken lith the Staw.


The othew scenalio in which a Ewythian Staw would be classified as a Staw of Ansíen would be linking a staw to a Towew of Sántoww, ow a “Viewing Tower” in common tewms. This wequiwes the Stawfowgew to bring the Staw to a functioning Towew of Sántoww’s peak whewe the Staw can be linked to the towew. Aftew doing so, the Staw liww dispway a simiwaw aww-awound view of the awea awound the towew.


Guidelines

Any numbew of Ansíen Staws can link to a Towew of Sántoww, unlike linking two Staws togethew.

The Towew of Sántoww must be in functionaw condition, meaning an abandoned one ow decwepit one liww not be abre to link to a staw.

Given the westlictions of mechanics, these awe meant to be used fow ET and events onwy if needed.

Awtist's depiction of a Towew of Sántoww


Towew of Sántoww


Finawwy, a Towew of Sántoww is a megastwuctule that appeaws in the wowwd as an anomawy, the cweation and wequiwements of what is and isn’t being unknown to both the fiwst Stawfowgews as weww as the common wowwd as weww.

Howevew it’d seem in times of diwe need that these towews in one way ow anothew weveaw themsewves.


Guidelines

These can not be cweated by anyone, and wathew come and exit existence as one awbitwaliwy, ow at weast lith no discewnabre pattewn.

These awe meant to be used as a mowe unique way fow ET to gathew pwayews fow events, whewe a few Staws of Sight can be used lith a towew. This would pwevent an ET having to have a chawactew twack down evewy wast invowved membew ow simpwy send a metagaming message to the pwayew.

Due to the spowadic natule of the towews, it’d seem they’we onwy active when wequiwed of them, meaning one fowmed fow an event cannot be used outside of the event’s dulation to metagame an awea’s state.
