I'm starting this thread to present and discuss information on the val'Cessari, a long-lost and mostly unknown family of vals. I'm putting it in the Spoilers thread since there is some information on them that would be considered spoilers. As is the standard on this forum, all posts here should be considered out-of-character unless explicitly marked otherwise.

[Some players may have inside knowledge on the val'Cessari. This thread does not encourage spreading information that has been promised to be kept secret.]

Henry Lopez pronounced the name Cessari with a hard K sound: /keh/ZAHR/ee/

In the real world, the Invisible Kings program allowed player-authors in the d20 Living Arcanis campaign to have partial control of regions of the world for writing adventures. The people who ran each domain were called Invisible Kings. A full list of the IK domains is:
  • Atria
  • Emerald Society
  • Enpebyn
  • Haina
  • Lustia, City of Leaves
  • Metra
  • Midake
  • Old Coryan
  • Paldaris
  • Plexus

Those IKs who met certain minimum requirements for writing a certain number of modules were granted the option to play val'Cessari characters.

People who don't play val'Cessari don't know much about them or their abilities.

There is no such thing as a conspiracy in Arcanis. Likewise, there is no such thing as a lie.

Just Say'n

If there is no such thing as a conspiracy then what happened to the two posts that were deleted? :P Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along.

One would almost think forces conspire to redact information about the family...

No conspiracy..just me.

I deleted the posts due to the fact that the book is still new to a number of people and they should have the pleasure of figuring how to decode without it being spoiled.

So nothing nefarious. Just a matter of keeping things fun for others.

Tbe C is "hard" like a K. Which means it could be spelled Kessari. Kessari is a form of cheese. See the following.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kasseri

Old moldy cheese. They must be from the green moon.

A first step in uncovering secrets is to decipher the three secret messages in the Blessed Lands book. Buy the book, decrypt the messages, and read the writings that managed to get past the Illuminate censors.

(BTW, there really is an Illuminati secret society in Arcanis. They're associated with the val'Assante family.)

A member of the humble public wishes to know. Who is Merric val'Cessari? I have never heard of him. Yet it seems like the powerful of the world know of him.

Does anyone here know anything about him that they care to share?
