Shire
Adel
The Adel is located in the northeast corner of the lush isle of Shire is home to many
elves. At its northernmost point the largest tribe of wood elves in the Crown Realms resides.
The tribe of The Gnarled Tree hunts and lives alongside splinter groups of moon elves. The
two major cities within the forest are run by the regimented society of the sun elves, with
the moon elves as commoners. Humans and dwarves that pass into these woods must have
a sponsor or written permission by a noble elf. Gnomes and halflings may pass into the
forest unhindered. The xenophobic elves have claimed this forest for their own culture. Their
system of justice is harsh and swift when dealing with humans and dwarves.
Alebarrel
Alebarrel is a small river village on the island of Shire. Its majority populace is
halflings. This peaceful hamlet operates off its agriculture and river traffic. The local sheriff
runs its government, a cooperative halfling, Dell Banderwick.
Barish
Barish is a deep forest elven glade. It is home to the source of elven government.
Their elder, Garanthas Peacefeather is a sun elf at the head of the noble house. In Barish a
single grey tower looms above all other structures. The “Viewpoint” is home to elven
government and is also a magical secret. No other race, other than elves, has ever entered
the “Viewpoint”, for this is where the guarded arcana, such as cloaks and boots of elven
kind and bladesinging, are kept.

3. Money
Crownland and Sewjewel both mint coins for use in trade. Although barter is
still widely accepted, coins are the merchant’s guild preferred method of wealth.
Trade bars come in 3 sizes. Small trade bars are worth 100 pieces of that
certain metal and weigh 1 lbs. Standard trade bars are worth 500 pieces of that
certain metal and weigh 5 lbs. large trade bars are worth 1000 pieces of that certain
metal and weigh 10 lbs.
These are used for large amounts and trade with communities that do not use
coin but can use the element metal for other purposes. Trade bars are lighter then
coin because the do not have lead added to help with the stamping of the coins.
There are 50 coins in one pound, for each class of coin. Also all coins have small
mark to show where they were minted.
1 Crown = 10 Pounds
1 Pound = 10 Shilling
1 Shilling = 10 Pence

5. Calendar
Years
Crownish History can be traced back to time before the Crown. To times when
men spoke Ancient Common and did not have the luxuries that the Crown affords,
Crownish History is measured from the last visit by the Avatar of Lugh. Legend
states that Lugh appeared in northern Geffen to battle a “Beast from the North “.
This epic battle still lives on in legend, all the Realms, with the exception of the
dwarves and the elves, who have religion based calendars, work on this Calendar.
The epic battle is know as Year 1. Anytime before this date is know as Carsall.
Named after a legendary sunken city in the Shirish Sea, that disappeared about the
same time as the “BATTLE”. Thus 30 years before the “BATTLE” in know as 30
Carsall, or 30 C. Any time afterwards is known as Year of our
Crown, in Crownland and Pelland and Year of Slumber in Shire, and Geffen, for it is
said that the “beast” will return. Thus dates are written 30 Y.C. Year of our Crown)
and 30 Y.S. (Year of Slumber)
The current campaign year is 1322 Y.C. or 1322 Y.S.

serves as a sort of switch for the two spells. Upon an item, the spell that the wizard
wishes to augment is cast, and then Continual Command is cast with the application
of a phrase or word that will command the powers of the spell. Callerdon’s Continual
Commands will mask the light or darkness spells magic until the command word is
spoken, then the magic is released, Another command and the spell will once again
mask the magic of the light or darkness.

New Artifacts
Crownsbane
This weapon, and it is not known what exactly it is, is said to be a weapon of
great power. One scratch from its blade (some say it’s a sword), or one crush from
its head (some say it’s a mace), or one nick from its point (some say it’s an arrow)
will automatically slay a member of the Crownish royal family. The deities only know
the question whether or not this item even exists.
10. Additions
The Quill
A society of wizards that share knowledge and spread magical knowledge, The
Quill is very exclusive, Governed by a council of nine, each seat representing the
schools of magic. (Abjur, Conj, Div Ench, Evoc, Illus, Necro, Trans, and Univ). No one
school is more important to the council, each seat counts as one vote. The Quill
oversees magic in the Realms, tries offenders, aids in magical research, and spreads
new magic’s.
The Quill is neutral where politics are concerned, even though some of its
members are not. Members are expected to report to meeting places, known as
“Inkwells”, once every thirty days to share and receive new knowledge. To become a
member an apprentice must specialize in a school of magic (of the nine accepted
schools) and then pass stringent mental and physical tests.
To stay a member there are a few requirements 1. He must pay the yearly
dues of 240 Pounds which may be paid monthly at 30 pounds a month 2. He must
write one research paper per year on a magic item or spell that he has found or
made 3. He must report on Arcanum to an Inkwell once per month to report new
knowledge and/or ask for knowledge, or rent and/or return magic items; if one is not
able to make it to an inkwell he must have a good reason, or risk fines and possibly
his membership.
Members may by spells at a discount of 20% from scroll prices, this fee
includes lab time to add the spell to the members spell book, or memory. They can
also buy magic items at a 15% discount from the current price, or rent the magic
item it is not an item that is consumed upon use.
The rental prices are as follows
1. Charge base items 1 pound per charge per level of the effect
2. 20% of the current price per month the item is out
3. If the item is not returned the member will be charged rental cost and
