Gazebo - Central Park (8)purity

 

The Central Park was designed for the Citizens to have as much fun with nature as possible, All the non-dangerous and interesting plants from the deep Forest are here. The effects of the various plants are on signs nearby. Things like psychedelic mushrooms and toads, odd flavored fruits, vegetables and seasonings are all found here.

Holy Pool of the City / Wishing Well

Opening leads to underground river system of rivers that are controlled by Druids. Underground river flows are controlled via a Massive Water Elemental (100HD+…no one is sure) who answers to the will of the Great Druid. It will clear passages of the river to allow for passage or to act as a safe area for citizens. The rivers run underground to all parts of the Forest (and beyond?). The pool refreshes the water system in the park as well keeping it fresh (high level Purify Water)

1.     95 Druid Spell Levels

2.     Hallow with PF Evil

In addition, fairies will often listen to wishes and may grant them (in various ways) as their whim takes them. A nerid is also here to protect the well.

Dojang of the Dragon (7)  dojang

 

A private training ground for Kath-Ki-Do monks.

 

Kath - Ki - Do

"The way of Kouthlun toward Universal Energy and Enlightenment" 

 

 

 

Within the pristine grove in the city of the Selid-Din, a simple Temple of learning has been built. Here, the Way of the Dragon is taught to those chosen few. It is difficult to find and may only be seen by those the Druids allow. Otherwise a Hallucinatory Forest makes the area seem as another copse of trees. Poisonous snakes also abound in the grove area and signs are posted to this effect to protect the unwary. 

 

The Temple is a simple bamboo affair (a strange wood for the Oerth area but common enough in the Celadon). It rises 15 feet in the air with bamboo and paper like walls and a red clay roof. The walls all have beautiful paintings of the various dragons of the world. The floor is a beautiful lacquered wood. Their is a simple porch all they way around and double sliding doors on each wall facing north, south, east and west. 

 

Within their is but a single 100 x 100 room. There are few reed bedrolls and simple blankets stored on one corner. Another wall is covered with various (monk) weapons (5 of each). Yet another wall bears a painting of Kouthlun and a small shrine. Near Kouthlun painting along the ceiling perimeter is a painting of Alexander (all masters paintings will be placed here eventually). 

In the center floor is a carving of the Mandragorin symbol. It stands 12ft tall and is a red marble. Many snakes (poisonous and other) live here and are kept up by the monks. As the disciples sleep here as well, they do learn a heightened awareness as the snakes like to curl up with the sleeping monks! 

Code of the Way of the Dragon

1. Be true to thy self

2. Be true to thy Masters

cartoon-fighter13. Use thy art as a tool for peace

4. Respect all ways...sanction none

5. Respect all people and Gods

6. Adhere to the old ways of training
