Akellon Thought Dump

This page contains random tidbits about Akellon that either don't fit in any other article or have yet to be fit into an article.


 * Sorcerers are often fashion trendsetters in Akellon.


 * Oddly-colored hair (white, green, blue, purple, bright red, etc.) is usually considered a sign of magical ancestry (celestial, fiendish, fey, draconic, etc.). It isn't a foolproof identification method, though, especially with sorcerers tending to set fashion trends. Hair dyes of both magical and mundane natures are easily available; elves in particular are known for dyeing their hair and adding highlights of unusual colors.


 * Oddly-colored eyes, on the other hand, usually do indicate a magical background. Contact lenses have not been invented yet, so if someone has oddly-colored eyes, it's usually due to either a spell or magical ancestry.


 * All true dragons in Akellon can learn to take a humanoid or animal form, a la Eberron. As such, draconic ancestry is fairly common, especially among spellcasters.


 * Pirates, adventurers, and trading companies form a trifecta that keeps the coast's economy thriving. Trading companies secure goods. Pirates steal and stash goods. Adventurers retrieve goods.
