==Fire== ===β’=== ====Casa De Serano β==== *A restuarant famed for it spicy food, run by the arch-rival of the Maestro of the Mighty Wok. The Maestro named Mouth Burning Spice is fond of using rare southern and eastern spices in his cooking which make the dishes nearly inedibly spicy to some people but those people are weak. Good food is for the strong, or so the Maestro says and he makes some awesome spicy food. *'''Hearthstone:''' Stone of Spice *'''Maintenance:''' 2, like the Mighty Wok the kitchen must be cleaned regularly. *'''Features:''' **Magical Conveniences (1pt) *** The restuarant doesn't need waiters. **Workshop Manse: Water (3pts) ===β’β’=== ====The Coal Fields β==== *These fields of black rock lie at the eastern edge of the city. Few remember how they got there but they were apparently the result of an ancient Fair Folk invasion which destroyed an experimental flame weapon the area. The resulting area was cultivated into a manse by a curious Dragonblooded Gens leader when he was ordered to send his men to do something about the cleanup. He converted the area into a type of manse for measuring the Valour of his soldiers, as they must charge across the fields random pyromantic discharges to the centre of the field and touch the Hearth chamber pillar. Ever since then it has been used for that very purpose. *'''Claimed By:''' [[Character:Crimson_Meteor|Crimson Meteor]] *'''Hearthstone:''' Battle Fire Ruby *'''Attuned Characters:''' *'''Habitability:''' 3, the plan randomly shoots jets of flmae and other earth and fire based hazards staying there for any length of time is exceedingly hazardous. *'''Features:''' **Network Node (free) ***Geomantic Relay (free) **Magical Convinences (1pt) *** Randomises Traps *** Resets Traps **Dangerous Traps (2pts) **The Glorious Halo of Hesiesh (2pts, Fire Favoured) **Fire Dragon's Will (3pts) ====The Smelters Heart β==== *In the heart of the Forge district of Denandsor sits this manse. In the first age a thousand men worked the machinery in here smelting many different types of ore and magical material and then sending the finished metal to the many craftsmen, workshops and factory cathedrals of the city. Today the plant is only just again operational and a fraction of that work force does the job, many of the originals were mortals trained to the highest levels of thaumaturgy and metallurgy, who worked besides the automatons of the day with vast swaths of equipment to protect them from the heat. Today those people have been replaced with half-trained savages who mostly rely on the automatons as they desperately learn their trade. *'''Hearthstone:''' Hearth's Fire *'''Maintainence:''' 3 *'''Habitability:''' 3, most of the factory is full of steaming metal and too hot for any mortal worker to bear. Most workers operate round the outside desperately using Automatons to do most of the work. *'''Features:''' **Network Node ***Geomantic Relay **Fire Dragons Nest (3pts) **Bound Servitor Force (3pts) **Atelier Manse: Craft(Fire) and Forge-related Thaumaturgy (4pts) ===β’β’β’=== ====Fragrant Myrrh Retreat β==== *This manse is small and intimate. From the outside it appears to be a simple dome of red jade and smoky adamant, shrouded in thin clouds of sweet-smelling smoke. Inside, it is richly furnished and, from the explicit bas relief sculpture covering the walls, clearly intended as a romantic retreat. Unwavering candles shed soft light over the piled cushions and thick rugs, and the scent of incense fills the interior (unless the hearthstone bearer commands the air to clear). The kitchen can prepare wondrous meals unsupervised if given the proper ingredients, and there is a shrine to Venus on one corner. It has been claimed by [[Character:_Cerise_Rose_Thorn|Cerise]]. *'''Claimed by:''' [[Character:_Cerise_Rose_Thorn|Cerise]] *'''Hearthstone:''' Gem of Desire (''Oadenol's Codex'', pp. 93-94) *'''Features:''' **Network Node ***Geomantic Relay **Magical Conveniences (''Oadenol's Codex'', p. 67) ***Unwavering candles bathe the rooms in soft illumination ***The scent of burning incense fills rooms on command ***When the pantry is stocked, the manse can prepare meals from the ingredients available on command **Veil of Shadow (''Oadenol's Codex'', p. 71) **Temple to Venus (''Oadenol's Codex'', pp. 73-74) ===β’β’β’β’=== ====The House of Every Armament β==== *The fourth and final Factory Cathedral built in Denandsor, this factory was built just prior to the Usurpation by orders of the Solar Prince of the City. Determined to arm those in his dominion with the most lethal and modern of weapons he had this built with little in the consideration to modern geomancy, though even in the First Age it was fire aspected. In the First Age it was said that if it was a weapon then this factory cathedral could create it. When the Usurpation came many of the troops that came for him were armed with weapons built by this factory. *During the Shogunate the manse was redesigned to build weapons more in line with the times and to more importantly stabilise the manses geomancy. It still produced weapons of complexity and quality not seen in the Second Age. *'''Claimed by:''' [[Character:Starcc_Antonee,_the_Adamant_Man|Starcc Antonee, the Adamant Man]] *'''Hearthstone:''' Candent Carbuncle *'''Maintenance:''' 4 *'''Features:''' ** Network Node (1pt) *** Geomantic Relay (1pt) ** Archive: Weapons (2pts) ** Bound Servitor Force (3pts) ** Cathedral Factory (5pts) *** Temple to Hesiesh ===β’β’β’β’β’=== ====Palace of Infinite Desire β==== *In the High First Age this grand building was a vast temple dedicated to the Unconquered Sun. But after the Usurpation the Shogunate redesigned those manses that recalled the rulers of the previous age. A militant Chosen of Serenity aligned with the Bronze Faction redesigned this manse to prove to the few remaining Solars free from the Jade Prison and their pathetic Lunar mates that their Patron and God truly had turned his back on them. She redesigned this temple as a vast whorehouse and brothel catering to the wealthiest crafters in the City. She desecrated the Temple in every way she could think of, including using the services of every being employed there in every room, just so when she next joined a Wyld Hunt she could truly twist a knife into their self-righteous souls. *'''Claimed by:''' Solitary Talon *'''Hearthstone:''' ??? *'''Maintenance:''' 1 *'''Features:''' **Consecrated ***Hesieh ***Sol Invictus ***Venus **Network Node ***Geomantic Relay **Magical Conveniences x2 *** Comfortable Furniture that rearranges itself to best fit those who sit in them and can double as beds. *** Decor and lighting that subtly changes to fit the mood. *** Suitably Erotic Music that turns off and on with a clap. *** Doors that lock when commanded. *** A room dedicated to teaching new sexual techniques with a glowing image of various techniques programable by attuned characters. (Attuned Characters only) *** Hidden Compartments in all rooms, which contain a variety of items. Always to the individuals tastes. *** The hearthstone room contains a screen for every other room in the Manse, which displays all sexual acts being performed in that room. (Attuned Characters only) *** A kitchen that automatically prepares the most indulgent food and drink. *** Special passages which deliver meals from the kitchen to any room. *** The Manse never needs cleaning, nor does anything contained within. **One Mind Within: All creatures entering MUST entertain their darkest fantasies and carnal desires ====Torrent of Flames β==== * This manse was a powerful way of accessing the Pole of Fire for raw materials the Artisan's of the Empty City required during its life. The Manse travels between several locations where many of the materials demanded by the city can be acquired. The manse itself appears a building covered in rolling waves of volcanic magma. A bridge swings forward and through two of the streams which part to allow enterance. Within the manse is comfortable furnished and not overtly warm at all providing comfort for those it transports from place to place. *'''Claimed By:''' Cerise *'''Hearthstone:''' Fire Eating Rock *'''Attuned Characters:''' *'''Features''' **Comfort Zone x2 (2pts) **Fire Dragon's Nest (3pts) **Alternate Locations: Pole of Fire (5pts)
