The tower is physically connected to its sister tower, the Necromancers Tower, to its west via teleporters on the roof.  It also has a unique blue gate on the roof taking the person directly inside the front door on the first floor.  These features were added by the 'gods' in 1998 as PaxLair became one of the bustling communities on the Chesapeake Shard.

On November 11, 1998, Lord British (Richard Garriott) personally visited this Tower, bestowed honor on the PaxLair community and mounted a plaque above the main doors reading "Proclamation of Distinction By His Royal Majesty Lord British".
