A magical staff owned by Knight [[Lanaric Kael]]. It had the capability to 'contain' bound spirits, allowing Lanaric to draw on their magical power for his own use.

Loram escaped at the [[Tower of Kallerain]], having previously assimilated Seth.

Aesha Lehtranna

2004-08-07T08:56:47Z

82.2.122.236:

Aesha Lehtranna was born in [[Great Heldmar]] on the second day of the [[Mantonian Calendar|Wolf]], 394EA, and is the daughter of a [[Knight Adventurer]] of the [[Royal Order of the Lion]] and his consort.

In 409 EA, shortly before her sixteenth birthday, her father was killed by the [[Church of the Sword]] while visiting the Republic of [[Antalon]]. Despite their differences, Aesha was devastated; she abandoned her studies completely and withdrew into herself. Aesha's depression lasted for all of 410 EA and she missed her opportunity to try for the [[Royal Orders]].

Finally, in 411 EA, Aesha recovered somewhat and accepted a visit from the [[Noble Order of the Moon]]. The emissary of the Moon, understanding her better than her family or friends, persuaded her to travel to the [[Tower of the Silver Moon|Tower of the Moon]] and attempt their tests of magic.

Aesha's magical ability proved to be of a rarely encountered strength; delighted with their find, the Moon made her an [[Acolyte]] at once, and her studies began in earnest. Her love of magic was immediate: finally she had found her calling, something for which she showed a unique gift and true understanding.

Passing up the ranks swiftly, Aesha completed her [[Knight Quest]] in 414EA, defeating a demonic creature that haunted the northern town of Kentic. Upon becoming a Knight Adventurer, Aesha was transferred from the [[Silver Moon Sect]] to the [[Silver Dragon Sect]] and moved from the [[Tower of the Silver Moon]] in Great Heldmar to the [[Citadel of the Silver Dragon]] in the far west of the kingdom. This citadel, controlled by the Silver Dragon [[Sect|sects]] of both the [[Royal Order of the Dragon]] and the Order of the Moon was her home for the next seventeen years.

For the first four years at the Citadel of the Silver Dragon, Aesha honed her magical skills, studying the massive magical libraries contained in the Citadel. Growing powerful in the magical arts, Aesha achieved [[Sorcerer Adventurer]] status in 418EA, displaying her mastery of [[Divination]] to her greatly impressed masters. Something in Aesha's inherently magical nature broke free at this point. Her powers passed beyond her control, and she fell into a deep trance and lay as if dead for the next thirteen years. In this time she grew younger, her appearance finally as it was at the age of eighteen, when she first became a Warrior Adventurer. She awoke with no memories of the time beyond that, and her powers had faded to those she had when taking her Knight Quest.

Aesha spent a year catching up with the modern day, until, tired of the mystery, she chose to join the [[Knights of the Silver Cross]].

After defeating the evil that had possessed the [[Tower of Kallerain]], [[Jerall Markant]] adopted [[Erol]], a [[Dorai Khen]], or Forest [[Drake]], although Erol seemed to prefer the company of Aesha. Aesha depends on Erol a great deal and feels lost without him, regarding him as a member of the party in his own right.

Soon afterwards, while investigating problems in Order of the Scorpion territory, she met [[Knight Kayin]] of the [[Royal Order of the Scorpion]], with whom she became romantically involved. He and [[Alveraz|Lord Alvarez]] travelled to [[High Temple]] to assassinate the [[Spider Queen]], but Kayin was killed in the attempt.

While in Nelonia, Aesha entered a draconic plane with [[Benethyarr]] and [[Erol]] in order to rejoin the rest of the party. However, on attempting to leave the [[Dragon's Road|Dragon Plane]], Aesha's spirit was replaced by that of her former self, [[Knight Aesha Lehtranna]].

Sorceress Aesha Lehtranna has now regained her body, but Knight Aesha Lehtranna remains as a spirit on this plane. She is currently haunting the [[Zhe Scabbard|scabbard]] made by [[Benethyarr]] for [[Aesha's sword]].

Royal Orders

2004-08-07T08:43:17Z

82.2.122.236:

The [[Mantoni|Mantonian]] Royal Orders were formed from the twelve great armies that defended the town of [[Great Heldmar|Heldmar]] during the [[Battle of the Stars]].

Although Mantoni is a kingdom, its [[King of Mantoni|King]] is essentially just a figurehead - with the true power lying with the [[Royal Council]]. Each of the Royal Orders nominates a single [[Sorcerer Adventurer|Sorcerer]] to sit on the council, with the [[Royal Order of the Crown]] represented by the king. Although the king chairs the council, he does not have a vote unless the issue is tied.

Each of the Royal Orders maintains a [[Royal Citadels|citadel]] within Great Heldmar and, in addition, controls various territories throughout the rest of Mantoni. The various [[Noble Orders]] each owe allegiance to one or more of the Royal Orders and it is common for [[Warrior Adventurer]]s from these lesser orders to support their royal brethren.

With the obvious exception of the Order of the Crown, the Royal Orders are not based around any concept of inherent nobility and are entirely meritocratic, at least in theory. Any Mantonian may apply to join any order and their acceptance and eventual promotion is based entirely on their skill and judgement.

[[Mantonian Rank System|Ranks]] within the Royal Orders are the same as for Noble or [[Common Orders]], but membership of a Royal Order lends greater note to that rank.

The twelve Royal Orders are as follows:

<ul>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Dragon]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Unicorn]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Lion]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Bear]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Hawk]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Phoenix]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Scorpion]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Viper]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Raven]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Dolphin]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Wolf]]</li>
<li>The [[Royal Order of the Crown]]</li>
</ul>
