Entry into Al'Noth's Denial is one-way only, through a handful of portals throughout the world of Layonara.
Where precisely in the world?
If it's one way only. I imagine that this means if you are sent there you are then gone for ever?
That's a fair assumption.
I don't think this is what one might call fair. If this is just intended to be a no-magic prison cell, then your wizardly jailers should likely have a way of pulling you out from the outside when your sentence is complete.After all, a mage who steals a loaf of bread shouldn't get a life sentence just because he has the ability to cast. Not unless all bread thieves get life sentences. Isn't this just a way for the judiciary system to assure that magic users can receive the same punishment as everyone else?
1) I doubt any PCs are really going to do something so huge as to be thrown in there, that would not also be able to be dealt with in other ways.2) If a non-spellcaster was to do something impacting enough to warrant something equal, he would certainly not be just executed and left to respawn. That would be pretty dumb. Simple murder is not "worst of worst." Steel's real punishment was the banishment, and the next real punishment would hinder spellcasting in its own morbid way. It's not exactly an everyday thing. Murder is, unfortunately.
Guys...Steel is a magic user. He was charged, tried and sentenced for 14 counts of murder.He is not getting thrown into the Al'noth's Denial.Once more and with feeling: This is for the worst of the worst.Someone getting thrown into such a prison would have to demonstrate quite a horrid string of crimes, magical and traditional, such that the only remaining option to contain said individual was this sort of imprisonment.Read everything again and think about who created it. Lucindites.They would not just condone tossing in magic users left and right just because they committed crimes. There are other, viable, short-term options. If Lucindites are willing to strip someone of all magic use permanently, then there's a fair chance that said magic user brought harm to the Al'noth itself as well as whatever else they've done.Really..everyone...take a breath. It's unlikely PCs will get tossed into this thing. Chances are really good, in fact, that the PC would have to cross the line into Chaotic Evil before their deeds would even qualify, and at that point, the character is unplayable anyway.
There was no intent to make this sound like a personal offense. If that was read into my posts, my apologies because it was not meant to be conveyed that way, and considering I am the only one at the moment making waves I think it is a fair assumption you are referring to me.You can feel free to PM me if you have a specific question on my above posts. I'll be at my computer for a little while. I would do the IRC thing, but for some reason I cannot get the web interface thingy to work.
