Adamas

Adamas, also known as The Gleaming Tower, is a white marble tower a few miles from Olfden that rises out of the ground at the base of the Elberwick Rise.

Appearance

The bottom twenty feet of the tower are against the cliff wall while the rest of the tower continues rising forty feet above. The tower's two entrances are located at the base and at the top of the rise into a semi-circular white marbled walled enclosure, inside which are several small military buildings.

History

The beginnings of the tower were started in 4116 AR by Karas Novotnian when he and Chelaxian soldiers were pacifying the area, decades after the desolation of The Rending. More recently the tower was expanded to include room for the Diamond Regiment with the intent of providing safety for the area and to keep an eye on the abuses of the Lumber Consortium.

Inhabitants

The building serves as the headquarters of the 400-member Diamond Regiment, and is commanded by Ingrid Odeber. The tower has underground dungeons used by the regiment as a prison, as people caught smuggling in Darkmoon Wood disappear into the tower and are not seen again.

Notable inhabitants

• Ingrid Odeber, a paladin of Iomedae who commands the tower.
• Findit Tobblemouth is a gnomish wizard who also serves as an alchemist for the regiment.
