=== Description ===

The eerie machine dream is a strange alternate dimension that
only the wisest of sages comprehend. Once entered, the only
way to escape is through magic.

== Area Notes ==

Machine Dreams, not good for much more than questing and as a trap for newbies.
Most of the area is one big shifting maze.

=== Description ===

Far to the north, between the plains and the peaks of
Tahjliera lies the secluded village of Tar'pa Cithm. A
nomadic tribe, the barbarians of this village have kept
to themselves until recently, wishing little to do with
civilization.

Stories of the barbarians have reached far and wide, told
to frighten children and unsuspecting adventurers. Famous
for their reputation as brutal killers, their village has
remained a safe haven, as few have had the courage to
venture near.

== Area Notes ==

The Village of Tar'pa Cithm is the home city (for lack of a better term) of the barbarian class. Only barbarians can enter it and they spend a lot of time there. It's mostly noteboards and shops and other terribly useful things.

=== Description ===

Far to the north, situated between the Blood and Azure seas,
rests the small island village of Edo. Students from around
the Realms flock to Edo to learn how to become warriors.
Masters of the martial arts, the instructors in Edo have
trained some of the most talented fighters in the land. The
Daimyo of the village is renowned for his contribution to the
battle over Thalos, where the minions of darkness were halted
from destroying the town. This courageous act solidified Edo
as one of the five cities of light, keeping it busy in the
fight against evil.

== Area notes ==

'''WARNING:''' You'll hit a DT if you dig in the room 2nw of Master Kosuke, so don't do it.

A very interesting area. Only drawback is the ip1 restriction. Many nice items to be found here
including [[a pair of sai|a pair of sai]] and [[Kau Sin Ke|Kau Sin Ke]]. [[Cyclone]] is the simplest run, but the Grandmaster pops a lot of cool stuff too.

a very pretty place, it is also riddled with danger. Huge
rocs, spider monkeys and living plants dwell in the upper

these vermin have been unsuccessful.

Treetops and Canopy, good for leveling and little else.

even one coin a great treasure.

=== Description ===

The shattered remains of the ancient civilization of tinker
gnomes resides to the southwest of Darkhaven, in the shadows
of the Southern Mountains and along a forested path.
Inhabiting the tunnels beneath the mountains are the gnome's
perpetual enemies and one time students: the hobgoblins.
Similar to goblins in many ways, they lack the intelligence
and inventiveness of the gnomes. This is made up however in
good measure with cunning and wicked ways. This filthy chaotic
race has made it their goal to rule the gnomes, and eventually
all of Despair itself.

== Area Notes ==

Shattered Refuge, a fantastic area for leveling and for aligning to either dev or evil.

=== Description ===

Terrifying. Awe inspiring. Majestic. Legendary.

Throughout the Ages, these are but a few of the words used to
describe the Dread Lord Seth and his black fortress. His
schemes in the past allowed him to obtain vast powers from now
dead Gods. He has brought to his banner beings of
unquantifiable power in preparation for the day when he will,
at long last, bring his will to bear upon the Realms.

The Dread Lord has, in addition to an impressive cadre of
minions, a daunting fortress in which to dwell. A small but
loyal faction of priests dwell by the entrance. Beyond the
priesthood lies the Chaos Maze, a swirling mass of corporeal
chaos where direction and logic have no meaning. What lays
beyond is only for those who possess might and knowledge
beyond the scope of the common man.

In recent years, the Fortress was warped and changed by new
servants. The increase in the Dread Lord's powers were never
fully understood. Now the Shattering has come to pass and the
Fortress stands strangely quiet between the Southern Peaks.

== Area Notes ==

Seth's Fortress is split down the middle by the infamous Chaos Maze. While the lower half is great for levelling, upper seth's has many good run mobs, which put out a disproportionate amount of great equipment for evils. Mobs of note are [[Jade]], [[Magus of Evil]], [[Darkness]], [[Onyx]] and of course [[Lord Seth]]. As if the Chaos Maze wasn't enough of a deterrant, you shouldn't be trying to get to upper seth's unless you've got a decent idea of what you're doing.

=== Description ===

It is rumoured that a large mountain training ground was
created near the barbarian village of Tar'pa Cithm so that
the tribe could train its young in peace.

Little is known of this facility, but it is said that the
mountain is home to a large variety of dangerous creatures.
Atop its peaks can often be seen beings of great size. Some
have even rumoured that the mountain is home to a band of
savage giants with whom the barbarian's battle frequently.

While it is difficult to put any stock in these reports, it
is advisable to steer clear of the mountain, for those that
venture near are never seen again.

== Area Notes ==

The Peaks of Tar'pa Cithm is the equivalent of the Halls of Knowledge (aka the Academy), exclusively for the [[Barbarian|barbarian]] class. They start the game here and can get all the things that other classes get from [[The Halls of Knowledge]] (in fact, a little more). Only barbarians can get in, and even they can't get in after level 20.

grasses, hunted by the Inahir. Rumors abound that the Inahir
will only respect those who can hunt these powerful animals.
These peaceful people live quietly beneath the shadow of the
barren peaks, far from the sea.

=== Description ===
Curious young adventurers, feeling safe within the boundaries
of the Tower of Knowledge, are often lulled into a sense of
protection therein. Some become brazen enough to enter the
whirling mystical portal found within the confines of the
garden and playground surrounding the tower. The portal is
sustained with Druidic magic, renewed in strength by natural
forces within the portal itself. An overwhelming urge can be
felt near the portal to perhaps take a break from the constant
fluttering of dragonflies and infestation of aphids...to
perhaps take a hike, climb a tree, or enjoy a picnic lunch.

== Area Notes ==
Nice for a little bit of leveling and a few good pieces of eq too. Not advised as a common place to run around in because it's noastral and therefore uplift won't work, so little lowbies can get into trouble.

=== Description ===

Ages ago, when the mortals of the Realms were still
experimenting with magic, a coven of archmages deemed that the
use of magic needed to be learned and controlled to avoid
terrible disasters. Thus the Guild of Mages was created along
with the High Tower of Sorcery. After many attacks from the
beings of Darkness, the mages also found it necessary to weave
a powerful grove of shadows around the Tower, so that only the
stoutest adventurers could reach them. Since that time, the
Mages of Despair, led by the powerful Mistress of Magic, have
attempted to grasp the idea of magic and understand how it
truly works. Through all this, the Guild has gained such
respect that Duke Luther has permitted the building of a
Tower of Sorcery in Darkhaven.

== Area Notes ==

The High Tower of Sorcery, a nice big levelling area that is usually not crowded. Also has many of the mobs that mages need for changing paths. Only real run mob is the [[Grand Mistress of Magic]].

=== Description ===

Mithril Hall's creation is, like many other Realms of Despair,
rooted to Vl'aresch's whim. Long ago, the Lord of Darkness
created a shadow dragon, which he named Shimmergloom, who
unleashed havoc upon the races of Light. The fearsome beast,
aided by mighty shadow hounds and dread clerics, brought about
thirty years of pain and sorrow. It was then that the
legendary Daskyn arose. This heroic man, whose name will be
forever remembered in song, drove back the dragon, tracking it
back to its lair in Garum's Gorge. There, the hero magically
sealed Shimmergloom in it's lair, unable to kill it as
Vl'arescht had blessed it with eternal life. The dragon's rage
was unending however, and it summoned forth a torrent of
servants, sending them to destroy the peaceful settlements
nearby. Our good King Welmar dispatched a legion of dwarven
berserkers to end this shadowy obstacle. With the aid of the
human Cattie-Brie, the dark elf Drizzt Do'Urden, the barbarian
Wulfgar and many others, the keep of Mithril Hall was founded,
resting near the steep cliff face of Garum's Gorge. The
battleragers of the keep maintain a vigilant guard, ensuring
that the followers of Shimmergloom shall never arise from the
canyon.

== Area Notes ==

Mithril Hall is a fantastic area for both leveling and golding. Unfortunately, having people in the area trying to do each isn't much fun.

[[Mobile|Mobs]] of note are [[Buster Bracer]], who makes the Ravager EQ, and [[Shimmergloom]].

=== Description ===

Far to the north, situated between the Blood and Azure seas,
rests the small island village of Edo. Students from around
the Realms flock to Edo to learn how to become warriors.
Masters of the martial arts, the instructors in Edo have
trained some of the most talented fighters in the land. The
Daimyo of the village is renowned for his contribution to the
battle over Thalos, where the minions of darkness were halted
from destroying the town. This courageous act solidified Edo
as one of the five cities of light, keeping it busy in the
fight against evil.

== Area notes ==
There is a DT here! Look carefully at the map!

A very interesting area. Only draw back is the ip1 restriction. Many nice items to be found here
including [[a pair of sai|a pair of sai]] and [[Kau Sin Ke|Kau Sin Ke]]. [[Cyclone]] and the
[[Grandmaster]] are two good [[Mobile|mobs]] here.

=== Description ===
The northern shores wait forever, their bone-white beaches
combed by frigid waves, the shore slowly faltering as the
grasses take hold. The plains stretch south, wide sweeping
grasslands, broken by copses and strange circles of standing
stones. The eltor roam the plains, grazing on the sweet
grasses, hunted by the Inahir. Rumors abound that the Inahir
will only respect those who can hunt these powerful animals.
These peaceful people live quietly beneath the shadow of the
barren peaks, far from the sea.

== Area notes ==

Good area with plenty of places to explore and many secrets to discover. The green frog pops a [[frog's tongue|frog's tongue]], the ghosts are part of the empty head puzzle, [[Mayera]] has a puzzle for chars under level 30.
