No New Posts Seekers' Tower

Another of the Castle towers this one is home and base for the Seekers, where they train, file reports, rest, and so on. Forbidden to students some still try sneaking in to the annoyance of the Seekers.

No New Posts The Lab

The most technologically advanced room in the entire island it is the only one with electricity. They have computers, TVs, only small ones with no TV connection and no internet but still the bored newcomers can play minesweeper or watch DVDs. When new Gifted arrive from the outside world they often bring small things with them, these are all usually added to the Lab. So while they have modern technology they also have older tech as well from years past Newcomers. The larger technology was brought by the Seekers after a huge number of complaints from the Newcomers that they missed TV and computers, the electronic store is still puzzling how so much huge merchandise suddenly disappeared without a trace.

No New Posts The Library

A portion of the castle is devoted to this two story archive of the knowledge of Avalon. Not as well equipped as modern libraries it still holds much. What it has that no other library in the world has is a section on the Gifts. Be it plants, animals, or people there are books written by past teachers about their discoveries on the gift. Each one is different so these do not always help but if someone has similar gifts to another books about that gift can be helpful if only in showing creative ways to use it. There are also sections about the Isle and its mysteries though despite expeditions and investigation not much has been solved.

No New Posts Infirmary

The Infirmary is where wounded Gifted can come for treatment, whether just sick with a cold or missing an arm and a leg after a they try to keep up to date with medicine and have doctors who are skilled they are not at the level of the modern world lacking much of the technology. Things would be simple if there were Gifted with healing powers but there is not always one around so instead doctors try to do what they can with other Gifts and with the natural resources of the Isle since some of the plants have special healing affects.

No New Posts Living Quarters

The place where the gifted sleep and live in the castle. Families have their own suites with several rooms that they live in, several generations all together. Since things like food preparation and laundry is not done individually nor by the gifted there is no need for kitchens or any kind of utility this system works. Students have slightly different options. If they wish they can live with their families in the family suite or can live on their own in smaller, student rooms which house three. There are nicer student rooms which are almost like a halfway between the family suites and student dorms which older students are allowed to have.

No New Posts Dining Hall

The largest room in the castle it is almost like the inside of a cathedral, huge high ceiling, wide floor of polished tiles, wide windows and at one end a huge stained glass masterpiece depicting the history of the Castle. Usually this splendid room is full of short and long tables which the students and many of the teachers eat at. During special occasions though the tables are cleared away and the original purpose of this room is revealed, this is the Ballroom.

No New Posts Courtyard

The courtyard is all the areas outside the main building of the castle and then the massive walls that surround it. Inside this space is a few simple wooden buildings, the kennels and stables, and some special glass ones serving as green houses. The courtyard like the rest of the castle is well decorated with fountains and beautiful gardens maintained by the Non-Gifted.

No New Posts The Fields

A very short distance from the Castle walls and away from the Village is the remaining space of the meadow the Castle was built in. A huge expanse of green it is often popular with younger students who want to play games and such outside. Since there is no modern technology playing outside is much more common than in the outside world and people often play sports, weave flower chains, have snow fort battles, and so on out on this plain.

Board Information & Statistics

Board Description
Castle
Imposing and elegant the Castle was built to show strength and beauty and the architect accomplished both. Rising towers, high ceiling corridors with beautiful views of the Lake and surrounding areas. Beautiful stain glasses can be found as well as detailed sculptures, mosaics, and carvings. The entire building is a work of art, and one which can protect those inside it. Large walls surround the castle made from smooth solid stone summoned by someone with stone abilities so there are no cracks and such smoothness that climbing is impossible, not to mention barriers enforce the walls keeping out any dangers.
Between the walls and the castle building is the courtyard with lovely gardens and also buildings such as the stables and kennels. Then one finally comes to the Castle itself. Filled with rooms for living in, working in, eating in, and so on it was planned to have everything that could be needed. Running water, a rudimentary heating system. There were even special crystal orbs made to give off light when activated so even at night the halls can be brightly lit.
