The Great Library of Palanthas

An Aesthetic shows you to a small reading room.

Stories of Ansalon from the view of Omar.

A little gully dwarf runs by and says 'Wordwrap is at 65. You change? Off 65 80.'
The gully continues 'Eyes hurt? Turn Color OFF!! (regular story dates)

Astinus says 'Enter the main library here to view only the author list.'
Astinus gently places a metal bound tome encrusted with jewels on the table in front of you.
You note the spine bears the word 'Omar' scribed in brilliant blue ink.


Author:    Omar

Subject     Omar's History

As per yer
request I'm tellin ye a bit about meself so ye know what
my
intentions be.  Me real name aint important.  People on the
sea call me
Omar.  I aint captained a ship afore although I
could.  I aint the type to
tell me mates to go hither and thither
and do what I says.  

I aint got a family and I aint got many
friends cause I aint from around
these parts.  If ye ask which
God I worship I'd tell ye I don't worship any
god to be true
although I pray to the one they call Nuitari when I needs
help
with me magic cause I'm told that be who has the answers in
that
regard.  I see the black moon in the sky just as clear as I
see the others. 




If ye try ta give me a robe it won't fit.  I
wear a grey one I took from a
dern braggart who tried ta keel
haul me on me own skiff affer I was kindly
enough to rescue him
from a shipwreck.  Oh, scuse me for forgettin the
introductions
but I'm an ogre.  I'm about 10 feet tall and that's why I
was
makin such a fuss over me robe.  Anyway, if ye try to find me
a black robe
it's gonna have ta be tailored fer me proportions. 


I aint got any needs except the robe and I can get me own if ye
don't make
habit o supplyin' em.  I been around a lotta years and
don't need treatin
like I'm a wet behind the ears initiate.  I
can find me own way to the
library and will work to earn me keep.
 I expect ta be treated with respect,
and if I am ye'll get it
straight back.  We'll not mention what happens when
I'm not
treated like an equal.  I been around a lotta years.  

Anyhow,
remember I'm a Sea Dog and don't do well with livin in quarters
on
land, but I'm more'n willing to do what I have ta do ta get me
magical
knowledge improved.  Let me know if ye need anythin at
all.  Oh, and if
you're worried about puttin a giant up in yer
quarters don't fret yerselves.
Although I'm sure the Conclave can
take care o their own, I thought ye might
wanna know I aint never
killed a man that aint tried to do me in first and I
always try
ta tie em up or somethin the first few times.  This one
feller
kept comin after me after I let him go several times so I
finally threw him
in the water to the sharks.  

-Omar the Sea
Dog, at yer service.

bottom of the parchment in green wax.]
