Citadel Stables
Located on the edge of the courtyard near the main gates, the citadel stables serves outsiders as well as isur and Izurdin's Hammer. The stables are not overly large yet it is one of the larger facilities open for use by outsiders. Divided into three distinct sections branching off of a main arena, the stables caters mainly to equine mounts however they do have facilities for more unique animals.
As one approaches the main entrance, they will find an administration office where records are kept, customers are addressed and the art of trade is engaged. It is here where all visitors must check in and state the nature of their business. Members of Izurdin's Hammer requisition their mounts, boarders check in and customers work out the details of their potential purchases with the attendant.
From the administration office, one may enter the central arena where equine mounts are exercised, classes are taught and training may be attained. One may also make their way to the left or right of the administration office. To the left, mounts that are for sale are stabled in spacious stalls complete with their own water and food. To the right, visitors and non-Izurdin's Hammer residents may find boarding for their mounts with facilities matching those in the customer section. Following a railed walkway into and around the arena toward the back, one will enter the restricted section of the stables. This area is restricted to Izurdin's Hammer members or to customers and boarders (accompanied by an attendant) who board non-equine mounts. It is here that one may go down another area to the right or left. To the right is were the Izurdin's Hammer keep their own mounts and the left is for the non-equine mounts.
The stables are filled with attendants who perform a number of tasks from cleaning stalls, feeding, watering, brushing and cleaning mounts to maintaining the facility itself and enforcing security. Trainers are also on staff as well as healers devoted solely to the animals inside. The Chief Attendant is an isur woman by the name of Trilvania. Her office is located just off the administration office out front. While the stables are capable of servicing all manner of mount, the animals most often found in the stables are Mountain Ponies; the mount of choice for the isur.
Mounts For Sale: Izurdin's Hammer maintains their own collection of stallions. Those they do not keep are gelded with some of those geldings offered for sale in the stables. Thus, stallions are never offered for sale and young animals are sold on a case by case basis only.
