The Tower of Flying Cinders
A tower-shaped dungeon complex designed as a test for adventurers. It was made by an ancient spellcaster, the Shisui equivalent of Merlin. An extremely deadly trial, none who have entered the tower in the last several centuries have ever returned.
The last person to survive the tower is known to have emerged with great magical powers. Great wealth is also expected for any who survive; beyond the rewards of the tower itself, those who entered and failed in the past must have left their gear behind.
Would-be visitors beware, however: It is believed that the tower has ways of blocking teleportation and other transport methods in or out, and it is likely that the path closes behind you as you go. Once you enter, there is no way out but through.
Historical note: The tower was burned to cinders in September of 23 ARL by an evil Phoenix Clan adventuring party that was misusing the Emerald Lantern. It magically regenerated over the course of the next few days or weeks.
