The Tower of Zephyros is a floating tower belonging to the cloud giant wizard Zephyros. It is his house and place of research.
The tower is hundreds of feet tall and rests on a magically solid cloud. The spire is shaped like a pointed wizard’s hat.
The interior comprises three stories, each built to gigantic proportions and filled with giant-sized furniture. Each story is connected by a 20-foot-wide hole in the ceiling/floor.
- First floor: The giant’s sitting room.
- Second floor: His bedchambers and the navigation orb that Zephyros uses to control the tower’s movement.
- Third floor: An open-air aerie where several griffons make their home.
History
Seekers travelled in this tower from Nightstone to Bryn Shander (26 days) in 1485 DR. Later in 1486 DR, they also travelled for a few days from Neverwinter to Longsaddle.
Denizens
- The Goblins Tom and Jerry: During their first mission in Nightstone, the Seekers saved surviving villagers from a goblin tribe. For unknown reasons, they had mercy on two goblins and brought them along for a while. After the trip to Bryn Shander, Tom and Jerry were left in the tower as assistants to Zephyros. They are getting close to being minimally competent, despite having caused many accidents in their first weeks.
- Nibbles: A hyper-intelligent mutant rat and former companion of Zenvalros, a member of the Seekers. Shortly before reaching Neverwinter, Zenvalros let Nibbles stay in the tower so the rat could realize his dreams of becoming a powerful wizard (and conquering the world).
- Zephyros: The cloud giant himself. Owner of the tower.
