The Wonders of the East
drplat
It is I, Felus of the East! I've spent more time than most in the Far East of the WIlds. I have decided to transcribe some of my experiences in this tome. Though many are unaware, the East is populated with many fantastic flora, fauna, and landscap e. The trees are large, the flowers vivid, and the people queerer than the rest! They were hospitable enough to me, for I was only a young lad with hardly any training. Usually, those types die, but I was a lucky one. I have picked up many of the Eastern tricks and their philophies. If any would like a furthertalk about Eastern magic, philosophy, and religion, please let me know.. I would first like to describe the people and settlements. Most would call me crazy, but there are indeed citizens far out! Most are very secretive, and only those who earn their trust are able to learn their knowledge. There is a myriad of all races living there, even some hybrids! I must say, the human/elves are a lot prettier than dwarf/orc hybrids... Yet the Easterners do not judged based on looks. Eastern use of herbs for medicinal and spiritual puproses are ingenius, to say the least. Eastern medicines heal about twice as fast as the typical salves in Oren. Also, their way of resurrecting dead or heavily wounded people is far different from the Crypt here. Though I am unable to resurrect there, i have seen the process, and it is both quicker and more entertaining. Most of Easterners use unarmed combat. There are some luminous, yet poisonous mushrooms that are utilized a lot. Their light helps fend off Undead, as well as coat arrows with a poisonous coating. Arrows are also needed for the masses of large spiders that roam in the East. As a result of some magical Voodoo accidents, the spiders have started to breed quicker. The settlements are well guarded and well hidden for this reason. Another thing to note is the strange alterations of gravity that occur in the natural landscape. Floating islands and mountains are only commonplace! This treatise is rather short and vague, but it would be disrespectful for me to reveal anymore to those without the trust of the natives there. If more info about any subject is desired, seek me out...
