Founded in ancient tragedy, the Tree of Parting is a safe haven in a dangerous land. The Tree of Parting is considered by many to be one of the Wonders of the Wold. It is known far and wide for its hospitality as well as the incredible beauty of its views in all directions. From the tree, one can see Culverwood, Izen, The Red Hills, the Emerald Kingdom, and on a clear day offer a far off view of the plateaus of the Kingdom of New Elenna. | Founded in ancient tragedy, the Tree of Parting is a safe haven in a dangerous land.

+ | The Tree of Parting staff numbers around 25 people. There are 10 other permanent residents, of which 6-10 are present at any time. Another 10-20 individuals make up the rental population. Staying for anywhere from a month to a year before moving on, renting stalls in the tiny market or staying in the Tree for other reasons. 5-10 wagons of traders stop here each night to rest and have a safe place to stay, recover from the road, and make important repairs to wagons and other equipment. The Tree’s Inn and Tavern are large enough to cram them in, but there are times that late arrivals must bunk in the common room. Once every month or two, the main caravan stops at the Tree. This 100+ caravan easily overflow the trees capacity and forces many to remain on the ground. It was with one of these caravans that Atlas, Mack and Crosseye first came to be at the Tree of Parting. | ||

Welcome to Tree of Parting! This game is set at a badlands trading post.
Contents
Game Background
Founded in ancient tragedy, the Tree of Parting is a safe haven in a dangerous land. The Tree of Parting is considered by many to be one of the Wonders of the Wold. It is known far and wide for its hospitality as well as the incredible beauty of its views in all directions. From the tree, one can see Culverwood, Izen, The Red Hills, the Emerald Kingdom, and on a clear day offer a far off view of the plateaus of the Kingdom of New Elenna.
The Tree of Parting staff numbers around 25 people. There are 10 other permanent residents, of which 6-10 are present at any time. Another 10-20 individuals make up the rental population. Staying for anywhere from a month to a year before moving on, renting stalls in the tiny market or staying in the Tree for other reasons. 5-10 wagons of traders stop here each night to rest and have a safe place to stay, recover from the road, and make important repairs to wagons and other equipment. The Tree’s Inn and Tavern are large enough to cram them in, but there are times that late arrivals must bunk in the common room. Once every month or two, the main caravan stops at the Tree. This 100+ caravan easily overflow the trees capacity and forces many to remain on the ground. It was with one of these caravans that Atlas, Mack and Crosseye first came to be at the Tree of Parting.

In his mid forties perhaps, has been intrigued with what the party did in the Culverwood and would like to continue his research. Brown hair that he keeps closely cut clear blue eyes with smile lines around them from too much sun and too long over books without enough light. He is whipcord thin but moves with slow deliberace, like a man three times his weight. He is friendly with a slow drawl of the coastlands. He spends a lot of his time pouring over old manuscripts. He also does a bit of mage work for extra coin.
- Arnos Faulk, just completed his latest collection of stories and poems, but as it took a bit longer than he thought, the elderly man has decided to ‘ride out the winter’ at Tree and then head home to Floating City.

Thin almost to the point of emanciation, with a large Farungian nose, thinning hair and eyes gone light with age. He is a keen observer of humanity and prefers to sit and watch, rather than get actively involved. When he speaks his voice is a rich bass. He is the Famous author Arnos Faulk. Composer of such works as “the Orc Wiafe” “Of Dragons and Deceit” “Faulks Registry” and the classic “Cultivars” Arnos spends most of his time either in the Tavern, in his room or hanging out looking at the awesome view from the top of the Tree.

His ears are cauliflowered, and he has a wrestlers knot on his forehead, also called a myofascial tear. You would guess he has wrestled a lot with scars like that. for a scholar he is built more like a blacksmith than a bookworm. dressed in good quality, yet comfortably worn traveling clothes, He has a book in his hand and has writing implements in various pockets and behind his ears. He is friendly, as only years on the road and being a good researcher can make you. He is from Wedding city and has been working for the court doing research about various subjects far afield. He is well spoken and erudite.
