Charasis was built by the Kunzar Tribe shortly after the Shissars were driven out of Kunark. It is the birthplace of Venril Sathir and is where he planned his war against the other Iksar tribes, a war which saw to the formation of the Sebilisian Empire under Venril's leadership.

Charasis was entombed soon after the fall of the Empire and is presently occupied by a large number of undead, including the spirit of Venril's one-time companion, Drusella.

Charasis, also known as The Howling Stones, is located in the middle of the chasm in The Overthere, and is guarded by several Venril Sathir-aligned scorpikis.


Level 46 is required to enter the zone without a key on the live servers.

We have "Sentient Bile" listed above. Is that what you're talking about?
Soloing w/merc
# Oct 13 2009 at 1:36 PM Rating: Decent
I started coming here with an alt after they made it a hotzone and it can get kind of hairy. I play my 46 War with a T5 healer merc and though it is fairly easy to handle the mobs at the zone in, going a little deeper in can get messy. I don't see anyone else in the zone so most of the time rooms are populated with several mobs and in the close quarters, they all aggro. Your best bet is to have a character that can pacify or mez in order to make life here easier. If you'd rather solo, just try to be cautious and keep an eye out for wanderers, they are all over the place.

We had TWO of these up when we reached the spwn loc. We had a single group of 70bst, 66bst(me), 70shaman, 58clr, 70 druid, and a 58warrior. Both came when we pulled, I tanked one with all pets, and players assisting except 70druid/70bst who oftanked other while we beat first down. I ahve baz gear, and it is crummy at best. 5.4khp WITH Steeloak, and 70 shammy buffed ~1100AC, max hit was 919.

Easy fight, even with both, for a group of 65+ in elemental gear.

Solo Zone
# Jan 16 2006 at 2:51 PM Rating: Decent
I am a 50 cleric that has not had too much difficulty soloing here. You have to be extra careful when pulling. If you get 2 mobs on you your better off getting out if your around 50. If you can pull one at a time, this place is great for a Cleric. Lot's of undead, decent loot, close to pok portal. Highly recomended for the soloist..

I've heard rumors about it but not sure if it really exists.

Collect 4 items to have a master key:

Mutilated Finger - North wing groundspawn
Mutilated Thumb - West wing groundspawn
Mutilated Forearm - South wing groundspawn

and a glove groundspawn in Dru Sathir's room in East wing.

combine Finger, Thumb, Forearm in glove to make Hand of Glory, the master key.

They're on a timer and in fixed locations. Got three keys for people at the weekend and the spawns were back by the time we finished the crawl through the dungeon for the previous key.

Don't have locations, unfortunately, but if you clear the dungeon you'll find them.

Key goes on the key-ring when used, which is handy... no need to carry it around with you.

Is the Hand of Glory NO TRADE? I know the components are not (except the bloody glove).

# Nov 03 2004 at 6:34 AM Rating: Decent
Got "Runed Brass disk" from a mob in West Wing, not listed anywhere. Lore, no drop, wt. 0.5 looks like... a bronze disc ;)

No idea of what it is for.
Mobs path
# Oct 24 2004 at 11:59 AM Rating: Decent
Hamal Skeleton, helot spectre and other rare mobs come out of the east door, stay for a minute and walk back in just to tempt you to fall in the pit trap. You can pull them into the patio to do them.

Looks like a necro's spec pet...was indifferent. Sorry no screen shot

[Wed Sep 15 07:37:12 2004] You say, 'Hail, Ghost of Mera'

Ghost of Mera says 'What? Oh, hello. You're . . . you're alive, aren't you. I'm dead, I think. Why can't I leave here? I need to be free so I can continue my [work]. Oh, but I'm dead, I can't.'

You say, 'what work?'

Ghost of Mera says 'My work . . . I was working with sound, I remember that. I remember hearing all of the wonderful noise that the stones make in the wind. I think I found the perfect sound, but then they killed me. A sacrifice, I think. That makes me sad. I do have one happiness, though. I know the perfect sound. I just wish I could have saved it so that others could hear it. If only they hadn't broken my jars.'

Couldn't get any other info outta it after trying various phrases.

Warrior level 50 weapom proc an 80hp lifedraw

This guy is a bit of a pain for the soloist.
He keeps him self in a room with other mobs and appears in any of the rooms in the north wing.

Now if you decide to clear the room out first he will aggro no matter wht you attack. If you attack him in the room the others will attack if you dot him he just summons you into the full room.

Solution pull him with a spell that does no dmage. i used screaming terror and sure enough out he came when it wore off and no company with him.

RE: Bile Sentient
# Aug 29 2004 at 10:42 PM Rating: Decent
He was carrying a blood point is why he procced 80hp lifetap. He doesn't always have it, so he probably won't proc too often. Look for a "pierces you" message when he attacks.

He can also appear in the west wing randomly.

Having never been to HS, how do you exit from the zone? Port/trans? Same as entering? Just obtained the key and would like to go, but not if exit is not the same.
RE: Never Been
# Jun 05 2004 at 5:13 AM Rating: Decent
You do need a port of some kind to exit HS. you can get port potions in the bazaar, OT hammer, or Thurg vial. Many fun ways to quest port effect items.

Remember " don't worry, we have a cleric"

You have 2 port-outs in HS : 1 in the south wing, after the keyholder's room, and one after Drusella. They will port you at the entrance of the temple, down the chasm in Overthere, among the Skorpikis :)

It's pretty dead, but there are some hardcore fans of the zone. It can be a nice place to take a small guild group.

Yeah, we take groups there a lot for XP, fun and twink gear: though there are still a couple of drops in the zone that would be upgrades for my main character. Cleared the dungeon four times last weekend, for example.
