| The Elements | The Scalvoris military start the Cycle with a good reputation - they were seen and helpful in the Faldrass Relief Effort and their part in the sudden freeze was very efficient! Many members were honored for their parts in The Forging. Have worked with others and have been very efficient! Reputation Good+ | |
 | Rangers | Oram Mednix was named Chief Ranger, and Rangers reputation has improved steadily due to the many positive deeds it, and Oram, are seen doing. Oram's killing of a pantheon in Ymiden has created some grumbling at the Menagerie. They've been more quiet in the last cycle - it's been noticed! Reputation Good+ |
| Scalvoris Council | The Council is fighting rumors of seat fixing and inactivity of current Council Members and infighting. There are increasing calls for inactive council members to be kicked off the council, and for empty seats to be filled. Reputation Neutral + | |
 | Fire Forged | Members of this faction helped save Scalvoris from the Warden of Slags Deep and his daughter. The following PC actions have reflected on the Fire Forged in a positive manner in the last Cycle, leading to an increase (10+ points) in reputation:

|
 | Order of the Adunih | Healers and medics are well respected throughout Scalvoris - Woe Morandi and Doran Thetys are known for their generous patronage of the Order. There are whispers, however, of internal corruption that somehow was involved in the attacks on healers and supplies that Oram Mednix and Woe Morandi investigated.

Places
| Image | Name | Description |
 | Scalvoris Town | Situation: Positive. Scalvoris Town is doing well, economically and is busy. The University is thriving and economically, things are good! There's a new temple to Delroth! Due to events of last cycle, the part of the town adjacent to the Element Hall is still rebuilding. The Glass Temple reports increased visitors due to the interest in learning about the events of Slag's Deep and the Forging. |
 | Scalvoris University | Situation: Scalvoris University continues to be busy and on the cutting edge of research. Reputation is good and relationships with both Viden and Rharne are excellent. Professor Doran Thetis from Viden has been giving guest lectures, strengthening the ties between the two institutions. The University is also building relationships with Desnind. Established a research station in the Haven settlement on Faldrass which is now disbanded. Actively investigating the situation with the 'time ship' and the people that arrived on it in Zi'da. The poor response to the "University Challenge" event here means that the University is unlikely to run such an event again. They also wrote a letter to the Council, showing their displeasure. This continues to be an issue, and will have an impact on next Cycle's calendar [/b |
 | Almund | Situation: Economic down-turn following the Faldrass situation - and the arrival of Saoire has made the darker side of Scalvoris rather cautious. As well, increasing resentment towards the city as reports of pirate sightings rises. Almund has been terribly damaged and burned out by the Pirate attacks of the Rebirth Cycle. Current calendar will impact this |
 | Beacon | Situation: Many of the refugees from Faldrass are here. The place is thriving. Subtle unrest in the area from the previous cycle has significantly improved. Refugees from the 'time ship' arrived and are now integrated into Beacon. Links with Woe Morandi are giving voice to the growing demand for Council Representation. This continues to be an issue, and will have an impact on next Cycle's calendar [/b |
 | Darbyton | Situation: Darbyton helped a lot with the Faldrass relief effort, and many of the people who left Faldrass early on moved into Darbyton. Population has increased significantly and the removal of the strangle-hold of the Logging Consortium is a very positive thing. |
 | Egilrun | Situation: Prospering - a lot of the crafters are looking at Faldrass and the new opportunities there. Home to the newest chapter of the Order of the Adunih. Rumors of a growing rift in Egilrun between the Rangers and EWWW. The events of Slag's Deep, the Forging and Liza's disapearance frayed the nerves of many prominent members of the community and is having lasting effects. Slag's Deep is now empty. Woe Morandi opened a new business and has been appointed Egg on the Scalvoris Council - he also is responsible for the capture of the "Crystal Blade". Woe is considered VERY positively in Egilrun. |
 | Gunvorton | Gunvorton has taken in a lot of refugees. Shania is a leading force in this. |
 | Harvardr | Situation:Linca along with many of the able-bodied men and workers of the village have been killed in the PIrate attack of Rebirth 723, and the village is largely without leadership, beyond Oram Mednix's efforts to help restore self-sufficiency to the villagers. It's a collection of ramshackle shelters and also Saoire's shelters. |
 | Faldrass | Situation: Saoire's School is still flourishing. The Badlands are reported to be shrinking by the trial! Roads have been built between the Manor, Hopetoun, and the southern dock. A new vineyard at the Manor! Hopetoun is thriving and Haven is progressing well. Whispers abound that pirates have Faldrass in their sights. The Shellknight Lodge was built by Kisaik! There's a new pine forest starting to grow where the badlands were, thanks to Kisaik - this area is a holy ground to Ashan and, over the course of the Rebirth Cycle 723, Faldrass Badlands will transform into a green and verdant area! Exploration of this area will have an impact on next Cycle's calendar [/b |
 | Immortals Tongue | Situation: The old Devout, Rez'na, remains on Immortals' Tongue, there are increased visitors there following the situation in Faldrass for the last few cycles. The most popular shrines are Saoire's, Xiur's, and Cassion's. Cassion's shrine is also reported to be tended by Champions of his. |
 | Ishallr | Situation: There is increased interest in Ishallr due to the existence of the Induk within the Island. |
 | Scaltoth Jungles | Situation: There is increased interest in Scaltoth due to the existence of the Induk. |
 | Scalvoris Mountains | Situation: There is increased interest in the Mountains due to the Heart of Scalvoris and are looking for it, but no one seems to know where it is! The Vault has opened, but is under guard. Only vetted and accompanied people are being allowed inside. |
 | Sweetwine Woods | Situation: Rumors of a tunawa working with turtles have been heard. There is increased interest in Sweetwine due to the existence of the Induk. |
 | The Tower | No one has visited the tower for some time. Is there anything strange going on? No one knows...... |
 | Treid's Mouth | The eruption of Faldrass has caused some of the icebergs here to melt a little. What will that mean? . |
 | Watch | It was discovered that Watchman Philip Carey was murdered and flayed by a mage. What's up with that? What was the motive behind the attack? The Elements and Balthazar investigated but nothing conclusive came of it. This continues to be an issue, and will have an impact on next Cycle's calendar [/b |
