Emerald Eye
The Emerald Eye is secretive group that tries to regain arcane knowledge lost to time and preserve it. Most members are either Wizards, bards, sorcerers and anyone who deals in the arcane. They employ a special order of monks that is trained in martial arts and offensive use of spells. Almost nothing is known about this group to outsiders. Their beginnings date back to the time of high magic, when dwarven enchanters were common throughout Andaria. During this time The Emeraldy Eye formed and started to preserve knowledge of all kind, in addition to all kinds of useful magical items. The sages of the Emerald Eye count as the most knowledgable people in all of Andaria. Some say their knowledge even stretches further than just Andaria.
Structure
THE ARCHIVE OF THE ALL SEEING
It is rumored to be somewhere along the highest of the spined mountain range. Most of the recovered artifacts and knowledge are stored there. The archive itself has been carved into the mountain and is heavily guarded by an outer fortress. Apart from that nothing is known about the Archive itself. Only really high ranking members of the Emerald Eye are allowed inside and the guards are all monks of the way of the emerald eye.THE IRIS OF THE ALL SEEING
The hovering airship above the peak where the Archive is located. It’s protected by powerful illusion magic and can’t be scryed or located by magical means. It can only be reached via a special teleport stone which is in possession of the High Curator.
THE ORDER OF THE EMERALD EYE
A monastic tradition that teaches their monks arcane secrets empowering them with offensive spells. They work as agents and guardians for the Emerald Eye. A subclass for this monastic tradition is included in Part 3 of the Book Character Options. They have several outposts throughout Andaria, covering almost all nations. Most nations secretly work together with the Emerald Eye to some degree, either by force or by choice.THE GREEN EYE
The eastern outpost of the Emerald Eye, located within the Ökniröi Valley. There they’re searching for artifacts from the time of high magic. They’re researching the Ökniröi as they’re a new race to Andaria. The Green Eye is located to the east of the valley next to the mountain. Employing powerful magic they have carved a secret tunnel through the mountain range for easy access to the members. From there on they start their expeditions in all of the eastern part of Andaria.
THE RED EYE
The southern outpost of the Order of the Emerald Eye. Located within Calimtra it deploys agents within the southern regions and the seas.

The outpost to the west is located in Ontrith, they deal with lost artifacts within Lixanthia and the surrounding areas.

They regularily send diplomats to the Lizardfolk tribe living at the Oasis near the entry to the desert.THE BLACK EYE
The newest outpost of the Order of the Emerald Eye. It has been established around -50 PD as the darkelves emerged from the underground and started claiming the north. The Emerald Eye had from then on a somewhat close relationship with the darkelven secret service, back then called the Watching and later the Artisans Guild.THE YELLOW EYE
The central of the Order of the Emerald Eye. It’s the fortress protecting the Archive of the All Seeing and with it the Iris of the All Seeing. Only the best get to serve here and those who have proven to be 100% loyal to the Emerald Eye.
