Well, it's not just for geomancers, but I've mentioned the "Gathering of the Wise" once or twice, and I would eventually like to do it for CW. It's sort of like an annual* convention for wizards, sages, sorcerors, philosophers, and other seekers of knowledge. Wise folk from all over the world travel to wherever it is being held to gather, exchange information, show off new spells or enchantments, discuss their research, engage in academic politics, plot against one another**, party hard at the local taverns***, and all sorts of similar stuff. I'm not ready to do this right now, of course, but it's something for all you people with wizard-characters to keep in mind (and perhaps even work references to into your storylines...) J * - not sure about it being annual...it might be every 5 or even 10 years, depending. Or it could be held whenever a full moon intersects with the star Pecares in the Sigil of Omateion, a rare stellar junction... ** - but not act on those plots! The Gathering is a 'neutral' zone where wizards of all types may meet freely, without fear of coming under attack by their enemies. *** - The locals might welcome the Gathering at first because of all the money it brings in, but they often come to regret their decision after finding out what several score of drunken mages can do to a town in the name of "fun". There's a reason the Gathering moves every year... -- sakura @ mediaone.net Jeff Johnston jeffj @ io.com LEGO Page (Set Reviews & MOCs): http://people.ne.mediaone.net/sakura Check out my Trade List and Want List - * - Last Updated 3/29/2000 LEGO Geek Code: SP+ CA +++ (375/6075) PI +++ #++ S--/++ LS++ Hal M+ A++ YB73m
