The Tower of Wonder

Purpose / Function

The original purpose of the Tower of Wonder is believed to be as the home and laboratory of Traberion after he left Shimmerford School of the Arcane Arts and resigned as archmage of transmutation. When it was built or where is a mystery but it quickly became bigger than its beleived purpose. The tower steadily grew in purpose of the centuries as Traberion's experiments and projects evolved, but its biggest expansions are believed to have taken place sometime after Aethelney was destroyed and Traberion moved into the tower permanently. Once Traberion withdrawed fully into the tower its purpose changed much. It became his entire world and he would go on to make it into an entirely new world in his image.

Architecture

The outside of the Tower of Wonder looks like an ordinnary graystone tower which could have been built by most wizards, this is because it is the original tower which was built by Traberion with little magical abilities. The inside of the tower and the true realm of the Tower of Wonder is not basic however, it is a complex multi-dimensional structure which are linked together by the use of transportation arches. No room in the Tower of Wonder is like another, though its design might look alike its purpose and use varies. Designs within can vary from clean white laboratories made from smooth stone that can never become dirty to rooms that are filled with complex pipes, gears and constructions that have become either fully automated or semi-automated. There are also a few arches that leads to other planes where Traberion has isolated pockets of them to his tower.

Defenses

The only entrance to the Tower of Wonder is through the entrance tower which can only be summoned by Traberion or be found through decoding the Map to the Tower of Wonder, which is an unique item that was excavated from Aethelney in A4 648 or by locating the Tower Anchors which are locations that the Tower of Wonder travlers to every 20-40 years. The inside of the Tower of Wonder is constantly guarded by Arcane Guardians which are constructs made within the tower and very powerful, they have the ability to unleash a poweful beam of pure force energy and can heal from the same energy if targetted by it. They can also pummel intruders either to death or unconscious with their four arms as well if their force beam and limited spellcasting fails them. There are also other guardians within the tower that are either given a certain task or lives within like Acanit who is the keeper of the Tower Hourglass which controls the time within the Tower of Wonder and how it aligns with the time outside of it.
