Obsidian Archives

CONTENTS

The Obsidian Archives is a black tower thrusting high into the sky and deep into the earth (to unknown depths), located in the lands of Acheron. Sometimes called the 'Dark Library,' the Obsidian Archives serve as protector and hoarder of all documents that are magickal, arcane, or dangerous, as well as other important historical documents. The Archives are protected by the Keepers: a small, yet fierce contingent of scholars, who also happen to be werewolves. Entrance to the Obsidian Archives is strictly prohibited, except by other werewolves, and has only been entered by mortal humans by the Five, the human pantheon of gods.. The Archives are surrounded by an enormous hedge that acts as a wall, sealing and protecting the tower from invaders and thieves. It is magically sealed and none but the Keepers may find entrances along its edge, using an incantation that is jealously guarded. Climbing is said to be impossible...



There are rumors of extensive underground labyrinths and river tunnels; but no one really knows how deep the Archives reach into the nether reaches of the earth.

Some rumors insist that it reaches as deep as the Underdark itself, though this cannot be confirmed...
