Gold Apprentice Compound
The compound was formed on Sakpata’s Disc in relatively recent history to foster a scholarly understanding of the powers of Fonlanders. The most serious students of Pattern Magic attend the School of Patternists that is located in the Nanto Highlands of the northern Disc that surrounds the pillar to the Lofted Disc. While the most powerful and flashy wizards of pattern magic usually attend the Golden School on the Disc of Xêvioso, master Patternists have always congregated in the northern highlands of the Disc of Sakpata and they formed the School of Patternists that emphasized a deep study of the pattern and the magics derivative of it. The instructors, all high patternists, including the Justice Mage Obatala who splits his time between the School of Patternists and the Golden School, manifest Gold/Yellow, White and Gray magic because of their extensive knowledge of arcana and specialization in specific aspects of the pattern. Sakpata also teaches at the school but he only provides instruction to a select group of students who manage to reach his summit, the location of which is high in the mountains and is not widely known.
Ore Amulet
The Ore Amulet was removed from the pillar of the Disc of Sakpata by the Fonlander known as Boromo, a giant of the Highlands who led the battle against the Ninki Nanka who sought to turn mountains outside of the Disc’s overlap with the Disc of Gu into volcanoes. Boromo possessed the Ore Amulet until they were collected by the legendary hero Idia.
Rocky Forests
The overlap between the Discs of Sakpata and Agê is known as the Rocky Forests. The area is mostly rocky with dense trees that grow up from the rock, but there are areas with dense soil on the side closer to Agê’s Disc.
Sakpata’s Jewel
The Jewel of Sakpata, along with the other light sources of their respective Discs of the Fonlands, was produced by the Disc after the naming of the Vodun. It is a pristine chunk of deep red Rubellite Tourmaline that is luminous enough to provide daylight. It travels north-south, moving from one extreme to the other at regular intervals.
Sakpata’s Summit
Sakpata rests his physical body on the high peak of a mountain that is not the highest point on the Disc of Sakpata, and its location is not known to the majority of dwellers of the Disc. Reaching Sakpata’s summit is the only way for a Fonlander to demonstrate their worthiness to be a student of Sakpata.
