Rumor has it the tower holds many secrets....

The tower is hidden in the city of Gorowyn among the guild halls...(Antonia Bayle server, Council of Veeshan come pay us a visit It is all Arasai sized, so larger races may feel a bit...tall :p )

Here is a tour of the Tower teleports, starting with the entryway and crafting area

The bedchamber

The tavern, with stage and plenty of food ready to eat

From there we go to the Magma Forge area...

Now for a look at the study, where all our magical tomes are kept, and notes written:

In the heart of the tower, our power source...part of the Void. A circle of protective runes around the teleporter in...

Far above is the Frozen Pinnacle, protective magic seals in the blizzard:

Finally a peek at the entrance to the Vault. Skorpikis guards standing at the curtain to protect against any who think to steal from us...

Of course we can't reveal every secret, what lies beyond?

This is a really creative concept!  I love the magma forge and the void.

I'm betting that to get the full effect a visit would be in order......now where did I leave that alt?

I went back to take a longer look, and to see how some of this was put together.. I really love how the floors were done in the crafting room and study. On my first trip through it didn't even occur to me that they had been built, they just seemed so natural. I really like how the void room was done, also.. that one took a bit of figuring out. (I think it was actually your ice room which helped me to figure out just how that effect was done.. very nice!)

I especially like the stage, although the whole thing is very well done.

I LOVE the floors.  You put them together so well. I never would have thought about using those together like that.  Works get together.

Loved it! You did a great job. My curiosity begs to ask though:

How did you make the void room so black?

How did you create the gold and stone tiled floor?

I would love to know.

I made a character on AB to come check this out last night.  Simply amazing.  Aesthetically my favorite elements are the void room (Love the deep black/purple and gold runes!  Perfect effect in there) and the tiled floors.  I love how you brought those tables together to look just as natural as if they were actual floor tiles.

Thematically I love the vault, the prison trap, and the catacombs leading back up to the entryway.  Perfect use of player-written books to tell the story of the would-be thief, and I had a blast trying to find the jail's secret exit and navigating the maze.

Very creative indeed.  Keep at it!

The void room floors and ceiling are made from decorative pearl tables and the walls are Tapestry of Felt hung backwards. Unfortunately its not pure black unless your torch is off hehe its got a bit of purple too. The study floor is made from Short Adamantine tables and Tynnonium round tables.

I'd love to visit, but not sure where this guild hall is.  You mentioned Gorowyn; is it there?  If so, how can a level 1 toon get to the guild hall from the place where new characters land in TD?

 It would be much easier to start an evil char in freeport and take the SS from the East Freeport docks there or neriak and take the SS carpet from wonderlust fair in darklight woods as there is a right click in SS on the carpet that will take you to Timerous Deep which drops you on the docks in gorowyn.

All housing in gorowyn is in the crafting area including the GH.

If you want to run from the starting location of Chrykori Island there is a griffon tower at 780,0,156 . Doable but can be a nasty run. The griffon flies to Gorowyn and then you just have to run a little way up a hill to enter the city. Guild halls are located near the main crafting area SMILEY

The floor panneling here is simply breathtaking. Nice use of the bed as a stage as well!

I'm actually running around in your guild hall as I write this and it's simply amazing SMILEY I would recommend anyone to come and visit in person but if you are making an alt to visit make a small race SMILEY I'm running around as a gnome SMILEY and enjoying every minute of it!!

Your attention to detail and the amount of planning that has gone into this is simply outstanding and my hat is off to you with sincere admiration. Oh and yes I went to the vault and yes I did .. and yes it took me a little bit to work it out SMILEY i'm not going to say any more so not to spoil it for those going to visit .. /grins.

I love the void room, I never thought to use the black tables to make a dark floor /facepalm

Great work and a wonderful inspiration.

Wow thank you

I thought I'd post this screenshot  of a project I'm working on now

There are whispers of strange happenings in the Tower of Nil Space. Even among guild members there are secrets that were never meant to be discovered. For one....it all came crashing down.

I call this "Warlock's Ire"
