Ravil Fandrani

Ravil Fandrani is a Dark Elf sorcerer and the head of the delegation of College of Whispers members working to turn Frostcrag Spire into an official cynosure. During Whispers of the Mountain he will point you in the direction of Astor Astentius, while in the other related quest he will task you with eliminating a runaway scamp.

When you first enter the tower, he will immediately challenge you: "Ho there, traveler. What's your business in Frostcrag Spire?" You can then tell him you are with the College, the Synod, that you're just looking around or that you could ask him the same question.

After answering you he returns to his schedule, waking up early at 5am and eating a quick breakfast before relaxing in the tower until 9am. For the next nine hours, he will busy himself around the main hall, breaking off for dinner at 6pm. After relaxing in his quarters for the rest of the evening, he heads to bed at midnight.

Ravil wears a College of Whispers robes, farmer's gloves and mage boots, and carries a filled grand soul gem, the spell tome Frost Flames and a random selection of gold, lockpicks, gems, jewelry, food and drink. As well as being armed with an Orcish dagger, Ravil is able to cast the spells Conjure Scamp, Fast Healing, Fireball, Firebolt, Greater Ward, Icy Fireball, Incinerate, Ironflesh, Revenant, Wall of Flames.

When seeing you again, he greets you with: "Yes? What is your business here?", "I'm listening, but make it snappy, will you?", "This territory belongs to the College of Whispers. What brings you to the top of this frigid mountain?" or "Unless you have business here, I would ask that you leave and let the mages do their jobs." If you ask what he's doing at Frostcrag, he impatiently replies: "We are here performing important research for the College of Whispers. Now are you going to get to the point of this conversation, or am I going to have to stand here and repeat myself?"

Ask about the College and he says: "We are an organization devoted to the study of magic in all of its forms. Unlike those close-minded Synod mages over in Bruma, we do not restrict our members simply out of ignorance and fear. Necromancy and Conjuration are as much schools of magic as Restoration and Illusion, whether the public approves of them or not."

If you ask if you can join, he disappoints you: "As much as I appreciate your enthusiasm, no. In our current state, Frostcrag Spire is still not officially recognized as a proper cynosure. Even if it was, in the cynosure's current state, I do not yet have the power to appoint associates. You may wish to check back at a later date, once the Imperial council acknowledges our request. We can always use the members."

If you ask what a cynosure is, he explains: "A cynosure is a place of magical significance, a headquarters, and a research site all in one. You probably think of it like a sort of conclave. I can assure you it is not. The Synod have conclaves, based out of the old Mages Guild halls. The College of Whispers have cynosures, the proper term for any magical hall and place of study. So, was there anything else?"

Conversations

While in Frostcrag Spire, you may overhear the following conversation between Ravil and Astor:

Ravil: "Astor, how are you feeling? How goes your research?"
Astor: "Fine, fine, don't worry about me. The vault portal still has yet to yield to me, but don't you worry. I'll find a way."
Ravil: "Glad to hear it. Keep up the good work."

If you convince Alavva Venucius to join the College during Undeath at Underpall, you may witness her arriving at the cynosure:

Ravil: "So, you're petitioning to join the Whispers, are you? What did you say your last profession was again?"
Alavva: "Profession? Well, necromancer..."
Ravil: "Hmm, and you say other halls recommended you? Very well, just don't start any trouble here. We don't condone unsupervised necromantic rituals among the lower ranks."
Alavva: "I'll try to restrain myself, thank you."
