Herilo the Artificer Exemplar squints over the marble counter muttering over a tattered manuscript. You feel powerful forces at work all around you in this atelier of arcana. A low cabinet of satiny shaal wood holds scrolls and parchments, as well as a small carved statue. On hooks and trays around the room are beads, talismans, amulets, crystals and odd ornaments fashioned from animal parts of assorted and disgusting nature, for use as catalysts in the practice of magical arts and divination.
