The Metal Forest of G'mansk (Vallorsh Territory)

This forest is made up of trees made entirely of differing metals. The trees sprout, grow, and can die, just as any normal, wooden tree can do. They just happen to be made of metal. It us unknown who, or what made these trees, or how old the forest actually is.

The trees mimic their wooden counterparts, but of a metallic build, not wood.

The composition of some of the trees is as follows:

Ash/Variants = Iron
Maple/Variants = Silver
Oak/Variants = Gold
Pine/Variants = Copper
Sequoia = Steel
Walnut/Variants = Platinum

The trees, as stated before, sprout, grow, bear fruits (applicable metal), lose foliage at appropriate times of the year - and have never been pillaged, pilfered, or purloined. Those that have tried have never returned! It seems the Metal Forest has...protectors...!

Relics of Payat-ra (Obsidian & Alabaster Ankhs of Power)

A matched pair of Ankh's owned by the legendary wizard, Payat-ra.  A human wizard of such power that he retreated from the affairs of man, leaving his students, Malrayan and Eishteros to watch over everyone.

Rumors swirl that Payat-ra fell into a long sleep.  Perhaps to prepare for a more advanced society, a new, as-of-now unknown foe, or to attempt to achieve the godhood that was said to be his reward for the work on behalf of his god, Ra. Whatever the motivation, during his sleep, the Relic Ankhs, black and white, were stolen from their resting chambers, locking the wizard into his sleep forever as their consciousnesses are intertwined.

The return of the Ankh's, which are worthless to anyone save Payat-ra, their master, would, if returned to their chamber, grant the rescuer near-limitless power.

This is all speculation, as unfortunately, nobody knows the whereabouts of the Ankh's or the resting chamber of Payat-ra.

Unless, one knows what rumors to believe...!

Seafairing Dwarves Race - Yes? No? Maybe?

Let that sink in - Maritime Dwarves. They make their homes on HUGE ships, both warcraft and generic island-sized boats. Generally, they are a Neutral alignment, but anger easily and fight to the death. They make their living from the sea. They are skilled fisherman, can dive to depths that would crush a normal humans lungs, and have invented many wondrous tools to help them dredge the sea bottom for sunken ships and minerals.

Good idea? Bad idea? Meh? Let me know!!!

Attached is my quick sketch of a Warfighter Seafairing Dwarf.
