The Wizard's Tower/Library

The library of the Wizard's Tower of Misthalin is one of the largest accumulations of books within Gielinor.

This page partially serves as an IC reference for current proceedings. Any inaccuracies incurred through changes of the roleplay are to be excused (and fixed as needed).

Employees

The Library is primarily a free-for-all operative, meaning that all students of the Tower may come and go as they please and take books, as long as they return them of course. The Librarians employed mainly busy themselves with placing returned books back on their shelves and wandering through the area, offering advice and help in finding books.

The library is located in a round room, with the Tower's Teleport Beam in the middle. The main entrance to the Tower is in the north, while the south has a small door leading to the sound-proof organ chamber. Directly beside the entrance is the librarian's desk, which at all times contains at least seven books, three scrolls, an inkwell and a small penholder.

The library itself is a confusing affair of bookshelves in all shapes and forms. The main area around the teleportation beam is clear and contains square, hovering bookcases. Further out from the beam, the library is divided into strict lines of double-lined bookcases.

The area is dimly lit; light enough to allow for reading without needing to strain one's eyes, but dark enough to impose a somewhat gloomy atmosphere, as well as a number of shadows with worrying shapes.
