The Temple of Solusek Ro
The Temple of Solusek Ro is a unique zone, new to the world of Norrath. It is a zone not for adventuring and hunting, killing monsters or selling goods, but for interacting with the inhabitants of the Temple. These inhabitants hail from all of the different classes and races, and are present here for one practical purpose, to give out quests. The Temple of Solusek Ro was added in the October 1999 patch.
The rest of this article will be a departure from the usual format in this wiki, since this zone doesn't lend itself to that sort of format. Dangers and Benefits will not be discussed, but instead the names and locations of various NPC's who give out quests will be shown, as well as what they will allow you to quest for. Not included, however, will be more information on the quests, such as what you need to do them. If you want that information, I suggest you travel to the Temple yourself...

Traveling To and From
The Temple of Solusek Ro can be found by travelling through the zone of the Lavastorm Mountains. When you travel the the north middle of that zone, along the northern edge of the lava pit known as Solusek's Eye, there is a small walkway and a tunnel that leads into the Temple.
Editor's Note: When Lavastorm Mountains was revamped on 26 January 2005, just before the Dragon's of Norrath expansion, the entrance to this temple was relocated from Solusek's Eye to an area just north of Najena on the southeast corner of Lavastorm. FV Project servers use the original entrance location described above, however.
Garden Variety's Glorious Adventures and Travel Guide
Solusek Ro, known as "The Burning Prince", is the son of Fennin Ro and patron god of Wizards across Norrath. This temple is a sanctuary built into the fiery mountains of Lavastorm, overlooking the great, inverted volcano of Solusek's Eye. Within the temple walls carved of black steel and fiery red stone, dedicated followers from all of Norrath's races come to pay homage to Solusek Ro and pursue further training in their chosen profession. The temple's ressidents are said to forge many magical pieces of armor and weapons to be bestowed upon adventurers who willingly embark on quests to enhance their skills, as is the way of the followers of Solusek Ro.
This temple is well kept by the wards of Ro. Small imps move about the fiery temple to ensure everything is in order and that adventurers are not overstaying their welcome. Combat is not welcome within the temple, for this is a place of learning, not violence. If one defies this rule, the fierce wrath of the temple will descend without mercy.
