#1 Duke5150 Sep 23, 2008 6:42:26	Greetings everyone, I return with more questions regarding DS info I do not have. (obviously!) I am going to be running a game soon and would like some information on the following locations, a general backstory and anything you can tell me about the ruler (for the cities) and anything else I should note would greatly help me, otherwise I will be forced to make stuff up for these locations and as my players may accept and like it, I won't. So thanks ahead of time! Celik - this is a city shown on the tyr region map v1.1 and I have no info on it from my 2e material and can't seem to locate it anywhere in the pdf downloads I got from athas.org. So anything you can tell me about this place would be great! Ablath - Same as with Celik, no idea about this place and need background, especially on the ruler and anything noteworthy. Tarelon- A ruin way out in the sea of silt. just looks interesting, need info. Crimson monolith- whats this? backstory and special notes? Akarakle - Close to the fire island place (lol great way to call it huh) whats this about? Shault - Looks interesting, whats up with it? Dasaraches - I had forgotten that ur draxa was in the fire lands, I thought it was in dragon crown, so now that I got that straight, whats this place about? Alfala - another special location i need info on. The black isle - anything I should know about this place? Sounds interesting. Thanks for any and all replies. Lots of questions, but not like much is going on around here to be interrupted. :p thanks again.

Celik - this is a city shown on the tyr region map v1.1 and I have no info on it from my 2e material and can't seem to locate it anywhere in the pdf downloads I got from athas.org. So anything you can tell me about this place would be great! Celik gets coverage in the Wanderer's Chronicle from the 2nd boxed set (page 116). There's a couple of pages of info. Ablath - Same as with Celik, no idea about this place and need background, especially on the ruler and anything noteworthy. See Dune Trader page 26. It's a Tsalaxa trade village, but there's only a single paragraph on it. Tarelon- A ruin way out in the sea of silt. just looks interesting, need info. See Valley of Dust and Fire page 26. It's home to the Silt Raiders slave tribe - a couple of columns of detail. Also check out the sample meorty in athas.org's Terrors of the Dead Lands, page 61 and 62 - he's from Tarelon. Crimson monolith- whats this? backstory and special notes? See Wanderer's Chronicle page 117. It's an enigma that might be a planar gate of some kind. Akarakle - Close to the fire island place (lol great way to call it huh) whats this about? Akarakle gets extensive coverage in Dragon's Crown - see page 28 of "The Road of Fire" book in that set. Shault - Looks interesting, whats up with it? See Valley of Dust and Fire page 19 and Wanderer's Chronicle page 112. It's home to a 16th level druid called Mearedes. It also gets a brief mention in athas.org's Faces of the Forgotten North, where it is noted that some Kulags engage in piracy in its vicinity. Dasaraches - I had forgotten that ur draxa was in the fire lands, I thought it was in dragon crown, so now that I got that straight, whats this place about? See Dragon's Crown for the best information on Dasaraches. Loads of stuff on it in there. Alfala - another special location i need info on. There's no information on Alfala anywhere that I am aware of. The black isle - anything I should know about this place? Sounds interesting. See Valley of Dust and Fire page 22. There's about a column's worth on the place. Hope this gets you started!
