Terrane Searing

This Earth-aspected manse is located near a small hot geyser in the woody hills just outside Lord's Crossing. A small stone cottage sits nestled in a small clearing with a warm water mineral brook running nearby, and it seems an idyllic, relaxed place. Unknown to the casual observer though, a small hidden set of stairs in the cottage lead to a good sized laboratory and complex below the cottage. It takes a Perception + Awareness difficulty 4 to find the hidden stairs. Beneath the earth there are 6 more chambers in the Manse; a small library, a laboratory, the Hearthroom, a storage room, and another larger bedroom.

The manse was a gift from his parents upon graduation. It is known for easy access to all 5 base elements, and the isolation in which the owner finds himself. Terrane Searing has been a Tepet manse for 100 years, but its construction dates back to the founding of the realm. Throughout the years, the Manse has been Fire-aspected, Water-aspected, and now Earth-aspected, and the constant changing of the essence flows has subtly altered the nature of the Manse itself to reflect all three elements almost as much as Earth. Nearly all the essence from the demesne is capped, and no mutations have developed in the area in a long time.

Since his departure from the Blessed Isle the Manse has been left untended. The family has left it untouched since they still scheme to get Arakasi to return. A maid is still sent to tidy the place once a month, but otherwise it is untouched since his departure 3 years ago.


Gem of Earthen Majesty
Type: Earth
Trigger: None, Constant
Terrane Searing produces a single level 2 Hearthstone known as the Gem of Earthen Majesty. This many-faceted perfectly cut stone has a red brown outer color but seems to radiate a soft blue light within. The gem evokes feelings of awe and respect in others, even other Exalted. It adds two dice to relevant Charisma and Manipulation rolls.
