25. Oasis of Souls (ex. Hall of Bethelim)
Tower Location: North-east quadrant of Orin Rakatha. When the Hordeling tower existed it was located in the Red Fern forest, this has now disappeared and has been replaced by a desert and at its epicentre is the Oasis of Souls tower.
Summary: Aggressive marauders mainly interested in violence and looting.
Notes: The Bethelim (Hordelings and other such creatures) held a Tower on Orin Rakatha for several years until a time known as the ‘Restoration of the Laws of Orin Rakatha’ when they were ejected from their Tower.
This Tower is ruled by a Nazgul from the plane of Thranduil, called the Savage Chieftain and hosts a number of creatures from that plane including in the majority the Easterlings, fierce sword wielding chaotic warriors who seem to live to fight. The relationship between the Oasis of Souls and Barud Tirgul is unclear; at times they appear to be in some form of alliance, but lately the two forces are more often than not seen to fight each other. They and the Halmadonians are always adversaries and much animosity exists between members of these Towers.
Colours: Red is the colour mostly worn but they seem to hold the concept of official colours in contempt. They can also be recognised by their swarthy skin and patterns of black dots upon their faces.
Activity Level: very active in the north east.
