[Ishallr] Gambit's Gate

Gambit’s Gate
Image
A large cave mouth, the Gambit’s Gate has no shortage of stories or ghosts, whether people think them real or not. The area is mostly dominated by the nearby forest and a side cliff, but the cave it self descends way deep down into the land. There’s no shortage of ice, and it’s believed that there are large deposits of Ice Metal residing inside, though no have lived to confirm. Ice and stalagmites and stalactites cover almost every inch, those there is walkable land.

The caves insides, known as the Ice Gambit, is wrought with creatures and life, but nothing has been confirmed or recorded, and even scholarly institutes are interested in it. That asides, their are a lot of dangers, both inside and outside the Ice Gambit and the Gambit’s Gate. What secrets lie within? What treasures or newly discovered species await? None know. But there are people who are damn curious to find out.

Isis

Image
Name: “Isis”
Race: Ghost
Age: Doesn’t remember
Title: Gambit’s Ghost
Skills: -
Other Information: Forgotten to time, Isis barely remembers herself. She appears as a hauntingly beautiful ghost, one with silken white robs and a thick white cloak. Everything about her is white, save for her pitch black eyes and hair. Isis lingers around the Gate, scaring off travelers and becoming slightly hostile if they refuse to leave. She tell grotesque death stories about the Gambit, scaring most away. Anyone who knows her is typically afraid or otherwise concerned of her, but Isis maintains this because of the danger past the Gate. After all, the Gate’s claimed her life- the least she could do is stop it from claiming others.

PLEASE NOTE: Following the events of the Forging, sightings of Isis stopped. Ghost sightings in this area, in fact, lessened to almost none.
