	Vanok Tus possesses a high crime rate relative to some other Nornian cities. In order to combat this, a handful of warlocks have founded the [[Association of Patron-Enhanced Xenoarcanists~~]], or~~ APEX. This organization is a support group for warlocks, providing an academic forum for discussing the latest essays on invocations, fashion tips on how to wear different shades of black together, and therapy for those whose minds have been fractured by repeated contact with eldritch beings. They also host daily Charmer’s Markets, where they sell enchanted pieces of weapons and armor. These range from gleaming swords of fire that only the noblest of heroes can wield to slightly stained gauntlets that turn any rapier they touch into a scimitar.
