(Scalvoris Town)
As the smaller of the two Element Halls, the one in Scalvoris Town does not house as many high up military personnel as its counterpart in Almund. The four branches of the Elements are also represented here and appointments can be made with one of the Assistants for each branch. Of course, sometimes someone higher up is around, but the general trial- by - trial running is left to the Assistants. The feeling in the building is one of calm and efficient, even though the place is inevitably bustling. There are lots of people moving around, but they do so with purpose and intent, rather than milling around.
Citizens of Scalvoris Town can come here to report a crime (although there is also a guard house where crimes can be reported) or as is more usual, they can come here to sign up with the Elements. That is considered a good job in this town, with training given and a good salary. Of course, it's dangerous work but then, the people of Scalvoris are used to danger and, as anyone who lives here will be quick to say ~ it isn't as dangerous as it used to be!
NPCs
Please see this post for an up to date list of the leaders and structure of the Elements. This also gives more information on how to join / progression etc.
Name: Elias Leopold
Created by: Darius Baer
Race: Human
Birthday/Age: Arc 661, 17th of Vhalar
Title: Judge
Location: Scalvoris Town, primarily at the Element Hall
Skills: Appraisal (Competent), Detection (Expert), Discipline (Expert), Etiquette (Expert), Intelligence (Competent), Investigation (Competent), Negotiation (Competent), Politics (Competent)
Details: Elias Leopold is considered one of the most evenhanded judges on Scalvoris. He has built a reputation for taking a pragmatic approach to judgments that includes listening to all sides of each case.
He is a man of contrasts. At 4'11", he is short in stature - so much so that he often needs help getting into his oversized chair in the courtroom - but he is capable of commanding the attention of anyone in the room with a booming voice. He is notoriously fickle with regard to adherence to courtroom etiquette, but also known to be quick to forgive if he believes an apology to be sincere.
By all accounts, Elias Leopold takes his job very seriously, and very few find cause to complain about his judgments - including some of those he has found guilty! [/googlefont]
Sylvia Macklin
Human
Born: 7th Vhalar, 667
Sylvia is the receptionist at the Element Hall in Scalvoris Town. She is a very efficient, very friendly and very nosy individual who really does enjoy getting into other folks' business. She is a very good source of gossip, but is abysmal at keeping a secret. She doesn't consider her dreadful habit to be dreadful at all, in fact she would consider herself a model citizen. Despite her tendency to gossip, Sylvia is a kind soul and is very good at her job.

Details: Lyari came to Scalvoris when he heard what had happened, with the hope of making a name for himself. But he soon found his purpose. Thanks to his previous training in the Iron Hand of Rynmere, he had the knowledge to use enough weapons to make his way through every section of the Scalvoris military. He was soon recognized for his versatility and use, given the role of tutor for individuals at a time. His last partner was promoted, so he is now waiting to train and work with someone new.

An experienced military chap, Keim'an is a member of the Flame Troops. He is a friendly individual, despite having quite a scary appearance. His eyes seem to be red more than any other colour and his face is very scarred. He is very proud of his hair, which he wears pulled back in a high ponytail at the top of his head. In terms of what he does, he is proud to call himself both warrior and mage and his last partner, who he worked with for a long time even under the old regime, has just retired.
