Dezina Museum of Antiquities

The Dezina Museum of Antiquities occupies a number of levels below Dalannan Proper. The museum showcases many wonders recovered from Xen’drik and other expeditions, though anything truly valuable tends to be sold by the university.

History
Founded in the year 498 by Flinders Dezina, Dezina Museum of Antiquities has been a part of Morgrave University in Sharn, City of Towers, since its inception.

In the year 998, Cora d'Ghallanda became the museum's first director with ties to one of the Dragonmarked Houses. She promised to bring House Ghallanda's signature hospitality to the waning institution, by expanding its collections and opening its doors to the public, free of charge.

The Arcana Collection
This collection records lore about spells, magic items, eldritch symbols, magical traditions, the planes of existence, and the inhabitants of those planes.

The History Collection
This collection records lore about historical events, legendary people, ancient kingdoms, past disputes, recent wars, and lost civilisations.

The Nature Collection
This collection records lore about terrain, plants and animals, the weather, and natural cycles. Includes a collection of live specimens known as the Vivarium.

The Religion Collection
This collection records lore about deities, rites and prayers, religious hierarchies, holy symbols, and the practices of secret cults. Housed separately at the Great Hall of Aureon.

Collections Staff
The collections staff are responsible for the general upkeep of the collections, among other services. Each staff member is usually tied to a single collection, perhaps with their own specialisms, but generalists do also exist across collections.

Most of Dezina Museum of Antiquities's staff belong to the standard mortal races of Eberron. However, a number of bullywugs, grungs, and yuan-ti work within the Nature Collection's Vivarium, whilst a number of monodrones - modrons that defected with Upper Quartile - serve the Arcana Collection.
