Guildhall of Arcane Lore - Chambers of the Lost Meyvinel

This is chantry for practitioners of arcane lore, acting as a hostel for wandering mages and guildhall. It is named after Meyvinel, the elven city on which Tashal is built.

This guildhall has four resident masters, all of which are skilled alchemists.

Guildhall Assets

The building has a common room with utilities and three staff (1 seneschal/book-binder, one cook, and one maid).

The guild has six personal chambers and laboratories for Shenava, although only four are currently occupied. It has a large communal laboratory available for apprentices and visiting arcanists (at minimal fees).

The library is of average quality containing a wide range of alchemical, arcane, and spell tomes. The guild is actively attempting to increase the quality of this library. However, the guildhall has a large archive of magical trinkets and artifacts, some of which date back thousands of years to the city of Meyvinel.

Guild members may, for a "donation," have read-only access to the extensive temple library at the church of Save-K'nor, the Vault of Kelapyn-Anuz. It has many books dating back to the time of Lothrim and before.

It has a large stock of herbal and alchemical supplies.

The guild has a large sanctum under the cellar. It has some warding against general magic suitable for experimenting and practicing spells and against alchemical explosions and poisonous gasses.
