Gateway to the deeper planes of existence, the Plane of Knowledge stands as the peaceful repository of knowledge from all parts of the known realms. The central and primary location in the plane is the sovereign city-state of New Tanaan. At its heart lies the Great Library, which is the storehouse of mortal knowledge. Its origin is a mystery, but it has stood for as long as history has been recorded.

New Tanaan was founded hundreds of years ago by travelers to the Great Library who required housing and amenities during their extended stays at the Library. The town developed, blossoming into a hub of research, a waypoint for breaking long journeys, and a point of departure for extra-planar excursions.

New Tanaan is divided into three districts:

- Selia, the light district
- Tanaan, the neutral district
- Kartis, the dark district

An elected council governs the city-state with all districts represented by one delegate. Civic tasks rarely interrupt this group's intellectual pursuits. However, as no aggression is permitted within New Tanaan's boundaries thanks to a magic that prevents the drawing of weapons or the casting of harmful spells. Though crime is almost non-existent, the citizens maintain a local militia.

Within the past few months a new NPC was introduced to PoK with the purpose of receiving for storage cultural armor patterns. Although the mechanism for storage was not what players wanted, it was the best that could be done. I did not access the NPC back when he was new, but would like to do so now. However, I do not recognize the character on the FIND screen, if he is there. And I do not know the name or location of this character other than that he is somewhere in or around the Library. Any help?

There are 3 Storage NPC's ... They are named Treasurer Siofra , Treasurer Foiwom , Treasurer Mirathancus ... None of them are in the Data base it looks like (not sure why ) they have been in POK for a while now. They are located in the alcove to the right of the entrance to the library. Trying to figure out how to use them myself so good luck to you.

Red to level 80.

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:12 2010] You have entered The Plane of Knowledge.

[Thu Jun 10 00:04:18 2010] Your Location is -319.76, 1213.73, -111.56
[Thu Jun 10 00:04:18 2010] Skal Nethus regards you indifferently -- what would you like your tombstone to say?
[Thu Jun 10 00:04:18 2010] Yther thinks Skal Nethus is a he, NPC, and their pet's name is Pet.

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:45 2010] You say, 'Hail, Skal Nethus'

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:46 2010] Skal Nethus says 'Adventurer, one moment before you leave! You must help me; they've all [escaped]!'

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:50 2010] You say, 'escaped'

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:51 2010] Skal Nethus says 'Dark souls, conjured
from the Void. I was trying to enchant this gem with their power, but I could not contain them. My holding spell was broken, and the souls [fled] out into Norrath. '

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:54 2010] You say, 'fled'

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:55 2010] Skal Nethus says 'They are probably hiding in the bodies of powerful creatures. At first, a soul's presence cannot be known. But as the life of its host wanes, the soul will corrupt the body and [reveal] itself. '

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:58 2010] You say, 'reveal'

[Thu Jun 10 09:00:58 2010] Skal Nethus says 'If you are going to be traveling about, doing errands for Franklin, please find these dark Voidsouls. If you can defeat their hosts and capture them, I can try again to [contain] their power. '

[Thu Jun 10 09:01:05 2010] You say, 'contain'

[Thu Jun 10 09:01:05 2010] Skal Nethus says 'I have been reading tomes here in the Plane of Knowledge, and my magic has improved. I think now I can harness the power of the Voidsouls and imbue this gem. Will you [help] me?'

[Thu Jun 10 09:01:09 2010] You say, 'i will help'

[Thu Jun 10 09:01:09 2010] You have been assigned the task 'The Escaped Voidsouls'.

[Thu Jun 10 09:01:09 2010] Skal Nethus says 'Thank you, adventurer. '

Can anyone tell me who this new MoB is, standing by the Caster's Guild building, on the evil side of PoK:
    Frozen Skeleton of the Cursed (Special Mercenary Liaison)
.
When I hail him, at this time, he tells me that I do not meet the requirements.
I have a lvl 71, T1 Cleric merc, commensurate with my being a lvl 71 SK. Not sure what he is for as he is not listed in the Beastiary for PoK at this writing. Near as I can tell, when I hail him, I get a very brief flash of the window that you get when you buy any other mercenary, then it disappears and I get that message. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, you want the questions and answers?

He has a battery of questions that change each time you retake the challenge. They can repeat in subsequent attempts, don't expect the same question twice in the same run though.


Some of the simple questions:

Where will you find McQuaids Dark Stout?
-- My first guess was Rivervale. Try looking in HALAS instead.

Where will you find The Fool's Gold?
-- ... now is time for RIVERVALE.

Name the bazu that guards the tunnel leading to the Muramite Proving Grounds.
-- I am so glad HULCROR does not see through invisibility.

There are six dragons leading the forces in the Field of Scale; Trakanon, Phara Dar, Talendor, Jaled'Dar, Gorenaire and one other. Name the dragon.
-- It helps if you can spell it properly: SEVERILOUS.


And there were harder questions I couldn't find the answers to until after I was done.

They were emoting things like rooting in your pockets for hay, straw, sugar, etc ... gave 2 of 'em some carrots and sugar and got 5 dose illusion potions (3 potions from each, tradeable) from them ... probably just GMs having fun.

James the Watchmaker is a new quest NPC in PoK. He gives out tasks that relate to the new hotzones.

It looks like he asks for 4 watches from each hotzone. Give him the watches and get the rewards. There's choices on rewards based on your class.

You can find him next to the Halas stone.

After Hailing,
Greetings, [PC Name] I don't suppose you have noticed anything [unusual] lately?
/say Unusual
Those of us from Solusek Ro's Temple have begun to notice certain...oddities. You see there seems to have been a disruption in our communications with Solusek. It is as though out {I think it should have been our, but is out} connection is [weakening].
/say Weakening
Some wonder if our faith has been waning and it is we who are drifting away from Solusek. However, many more of us are sure we have never been more faithful and that there is something more occurring. If you happen to hear any news that would help us decipher this delima please setl me know.

Shall endeavor to get complete text tonight and posted here. Went to the Temple of Solusek Ro off of Lavastorm but found no new NPCs. Might try to check out Sol Ro Tower in PoT tonight. No sure what other zones might have Sol Ro adherents. Anyone else think of zones to check out? Maybe Plane of Fire?

There is a NPC called Sage Vilgand sitting on a rock just outside the zoneline to the bazaar in PoK. He talked about some sort of teleportation device. When you follow the dialogue, he will port you to the bazaar and tell you to talk to his brothers and let them know the teleportation device worked.
I tried talking to Sage Vindillar in the bazaar, but he won't respond to phrases such as "The device has worked on a living subject!".

Anybody know what these guys are for or how to advance in the quest?

Old post, I know, but a guildie was wondering about this guy a few days ago...

These NPC's (Valgond, Vilgand, Vonglor) were placed in PoK when the Doors to Bazaar and Guild Lobby were "locked" by a bug that popped up after a patch.

For a while, these guys were the only way in and out of the Lobby, bar Teleporting or using the Magus.

As for the NPC outside Bazaar, he ported you into the Bazaar in like manner, and he MAY have had an opposite number in the Bazaar at one time (I never looked) but most people were just using the Bazaar-Nexus-PoK route from the outset.

Haloween event quest begins with Zigan Ribshard in PoK, near Cablis stone (-640,+180).

You say, 'Hail Zigan Ribshard'

Zigan Ribshard says, 'Another sad little adventurer looking for a new conquest eh? Well I've got something for you but you'll need to check in with a few [friends] of mine first.'

You say, 'what friends'

Zigan Ribshard says, 'They've all gone and holed themselves up in some bloody forest. There's five of them in all. One is a wannabe necromancer, spends all day tinkering with bones he does. The next is just some daft old man. I don't know how I got mixed up with him. Another is a fool with delusions of being a grand entertainer telling stories all day long. And then there's the [halflings]...'

You say, 'what halflings'

Zigan Ribshard says 'There's Mippie to start. She's the type that doesn't know when to stop. I met up with her at a fantastic party in the Freeport catacombs. She'd put someone like you under the table without much trouble I'd wager. The other one is just...Well odd. Last I saw he was trying to convince people he was a vampire or some such. I can't imagine anyone feeling threatened by a blood-sucking helfling. Anyways, once you've dealt with them come see me again, and remember to bring a costume!'


Go to Kithicor Forest, and seek out his 5 friends.

1.Mippie Diggs - at RV zoneline in Kithicor(+1955, +3812)
2.Barsin, the Bone Collector - at the lake in the S.East (-105, +09)
3.a Dressed-up Halfling - near the merchants' house at WC zoneline (+1085, -565)
4.Old Man Draykey - N.West corner of zone (+1917, +4537)
5.Cathil & a silly puppet - in front of a house at(+1240, +1065)

Each has a task to perform and completing them properly gives you an invisable flag. Only Mippie's Hungry Halfling quest will appear in the Quest History tab of the Quest Journal upon completion, but all 5 of the completion flags are needed to properly complete the Haloween event and collect the final reward from Zigan Ribshard.

Upon completion of the 5 quests, return to Zigan Ribshard in the racial illusion given to you by Mippie.

You say, 'Hail Zigan Ribshard'

Zigan Ribshard says, 'Hah! That's a good costume there ______! I almost didn't recognize you. Well you have done all I asked, I don't know how you managed to stand all my friends, but here you go. This mask is one of my finer creations. Use it well and go scare some rotten elf kid.
