Ruathym#

https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Arcane_Brotherhood

Used to operate out of Luskan + NW. Some of the big cheeses remaining on the Island of Ruathym.
They could've spotted it when they passed Ruathym isle in the sea, but now they have to gain renown in the Tower of the Arcane in luskan.

Motivation#

Wizard piracy. Secrecy. They in fact have the remains of Isz' ship. Lives off the sea in general.
Remnants of the Brotherhood. They use old and forgotten forms of magic to protect themselves.
They know CHRONOMANCY! WHY?
Paradoxical summons showcase with a diamond. (Party trick)
Quicken thoughts (eyes jitter back and forth) - Charisma ADV.

Lines#

No one can see the future. I can see options and trajectories. Time is like a river. That splits into creeks or pools into lakes, or careens down waterfalls. I have the map, and I steer the ship.

Location#

Enclosed by mountains of all sides, many smaller ships. Illusion magic keeping the place from being visible. But if they break through they'll find the small village of Diyun
Subarctic climate. Trees and unpopulated on lower parts.
