Once an isolated and dying township, an influx of academics, adventurers and thrill seekers have made Scalvoris Town their home. From scholars' tea shops to a new satellite campus for Viden Academy, this is an exciting place to visit or make your home!

25 Ashan 720
Balthazar sat, alone, in an unremarkable room in an unremarkable Inn somewhere unremarkably placed in Scalvoris. Not even a break ago it had all mattered to him. He'd asked for the the nicest sheets for the beds in their room and with a little bribe the owner was more than willing to...

I don't know, it seems odd. Balthazar said to Isabella as they walked with their arms linked. He slowed his pace to meet hers as they walked and he didn't mind. She'd just posed an... interesting idea about what they could do with their free time if Balthazar truly had nothing else...
On the 104th of Ashan, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and recently initiated Becomer returned home from university, sweating somewhat unappealingly because it was quite hot, and went to look for his roommate and friend with benefits Aidan. The slightly older man was...
A small bell tinkled as Natalie pushed her way into Peyter's Pots and Potions . She looked up at the bell smiling, not having expected to hear it. It was cute, and she'd certainly remember it. And she definitely appreciated it. There behind the counter on the opposite end of the...
On the 10th of Ashan, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and esteemed member of the Scalvoris Council (he was the new Academic!) walked into Petyr’s Potions, a huge smile on his face and a spring in his step, because he had come up with a way to increase his popularity,...

Darius heard Rose's voice before he had even entered the library.
The bearded blond was more familiar with the wide open spaces of the ocean, having spent much more time on the water than in a library, but he was fairly sure...

Sand flew into the air as another brawler collapsed, having been knocked unconscious by a heel to the back of his head. Balthazar stumbled back from his opponent for a moment- tense and ready for the brawler to rise and continue the fight... but he didn’t rise. Balthazar eased...

Darius stepped carefully through the thicket of trees. It was dark enough despite no longer being Cylus, and the shadows that each trunk only served to make the poor visibility even worse. It also felt much colder there, with...

With one last sawing motion, the piece of wood was cut in two. A quick check with a marked piece of string confirmed that it was of a perfect length, and after a little sanding, its end was nice and smooth.

Scalvoris Town: Little Korlasir.
8th Ashan, 720
The heat of the forge slapped Tio across the face like an invisible wall, making him recoil back on pure instinct. Morgana, standing by his side, shot him one of her patented unimpressed looks and...
The second glass of was not as forgiving as the first. Yeva had to take a bit more time to compose herself, and Azrael, sensing this, rubbed her back, Wine's supposed to be sipped, not thrown back like a liquor.
I know, she grumbled, breathing out the vapors of fire and regret,...
Over the course of the past couple of trials, Devin, his roommate Aidan and their amnesiac Sev’ryn guest that they had decided to call Mik’hail since they didn’t know his real name had settled into a bit of a routine. In the morning, Devin and Aidan showed...

My friend, Bert, the large stuffed bunny, thinks that you're being rude Balthazar jabbed his thumb back to point at the air behind himself. The bar patron beside him cast a sideways glance at the alcohol reeking Balthazar who seemed to sway on the stool he was sitting on. Balthazar...
The son of Ziell had decided to never join the Order of the Adunih, for a number of reasons, even though he had worked as a healer in the past and still occasionally helped out in the Infirmary in Viden, despite his duties at the Academy. He...

Mother fucker! Balthazar screamed at the top of his lungs as he dropped to the ground gripping his hand in pain. He'd come to the Proving Grounds after a little nap to work out some of his issues on a few other fighters but things had taken a bad turn. He was hungover and it made his...
“I think that he likes his new clothes”, Devin remarked and looked at their surprise visitor who had mysteriously ended up in their garden a couple of breaks earlier and who was sitting at the table in their living room now. The Sev’ryn was wearing one of his roommate...
“Fek, where is it?“ Devin who was in his Biqaj totem at the moment wondered and started to frantically root through his vanity table, throwing brushes, combs, fake mustaches, makeup and similar things on the floor.
On the 33rd of Ashan, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and recently initiated Becomer (and self-proclaimed magical mutant because he thought his special abilities came from an accident) stood in front of the floor length mirror in the hallway of the house that he had...

I don't know if this is a good idea. Balthazar said shifting the blindfold back and forth in his hands as he looked out into the dark. It was almost always dark these trials so the blindfold was only doing a bit more- but a Rupturer without sight was hardly a Rupturer at all... not...
Come one, come all, to the first annual Scalvorian Scalv-enger Hunt. Starting at The Scholar's Nook this is an event hosted with the intention of everyone on Scalvoris being able to be involved.
On the 62nd of Ashan, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and recently initiated Becomer was doing a handstand in his garden. He was leaning against the large apple tree that was covered with numerous pink and white blossoms for a bit of extra support while doing so, and...

No, that's ridiculous. Isabella said flippantly as she and Balthazar walked through the town square. Balthazar trailed slightly behind Isabella, instinctively watching the city around him more than she did. Isabella had come to Scalvoris Town a few days prior and promised to stay...
“Are you sure that you don’t want my help?” Adeline asked and looked at Devin as he put the totem that he had just dedicated and that took the form of a ring on one of his fingers.
“No, I don’t think so”, the Mortalborn replied. He had been...

Three trials had passed since Darius had helped at the Dusk Festival . He'd decided to patiently wait for the Elements time to clean up in the wake of the various bonfires before taking up their kind offer of training, and he...
The Red Hand was busy that evening. The cold wind swept patrons inside the doors of the lounge at a volume higher than the previous night. Lusty eyes searched for a partner to warm a body against. Heavy pockets ventured to the bar keep or a local dealer inside in hopes of...
