Spider Top (Rhyl)
Posted on August 27, 2025 in Steel-Realms
Spider Top is an area in the Enthavelaugh Weald that is kept fairly dry and the spiders of the area are both its guardians and spin silk for some of their magic items. This is a tree-home of trees woven together at the top by a thousand years of silk from the giant spiders that have been bred and live in the copse. This location bears the Frost-Melded mark an ancient encounter with the Dragon of Rhyl.
Enthavelaugh Spiderin: Spider Top is a large area on top of a knoll with a 1km diameter top that rises about 400 feet and a stream at its eastern base. The woods outside of the knoll are also home to the Enthavelaugh Spiderin. These feed on rabbits bred by the elves and leave other creatures of the Forest alone.
- Spider Top is one of the Sacred Places of Neitht – The Spider Sovereign.
Doget’s Petal: The Doget’s Petal/Doget’s Petal is a thin leather and cloth suit of armor with a hood that is shaped to the body of the wearer. Its composition is unique silks, waxes, and treatments from the area. It appears as a suit of light leather with a vertical set of skirt plates. It is never sold to outsiders, and only gifted to those who perform a high deed for the region or specifically the elves of Rhyl.
i20™ Armor Details
Prestige Mark > It is considered fitted Leather with +3 Resilience (only fits the wearer) and Cold Resistance & the powers of Cloak of Elven Kind. When among the rocks and land of the region of Rhyl, it is treated as a Elven Cloak. Outside, under the sky, the armor can be worn at night and slept in without discomfort – actually helping the character become comfortable; once slept in for a Long Rest cycle and Attuned, it grants the wearer +1 Initiative while it is worn & character can use all three Resilience at once – this destroys it and it cannot be repaired.
