| '''Catoptron Castle''' is a historical castle on the southeastern side of [[Arbemaisonnes]], the capital of [[King's Federation]]. It is associated with the urban legend of the Lady of Catoptron Castle ghost. The castle is also home to the Circuit Catoptron [[RSFC|RSF]] track.

| == Geography ==
| |
| Catoptron Castle is located in the Corridor Oriental county of the Arbemaisonnes Capital Province. The castle lies southeast of Arbemaisonnes's historical city center. Both are connected through pathways that extends to [[Kiwimango]] further south. The castle is neighbored by [[Voyaberge|Voyaberge Inn]] and a small tower to the north. The castle, as well as its surroundings, are the only places in Arbemaisonnes with a snowy climate, the only ones with a consistent snowfall, and the only ones with a permanent midnight. Upon a player's visit to the Castle's area, a large blackletter-scripted greeting flag would appear:

| == Structures ==
| |
| Catoptron Castle is roughly divided by two wings: north and south. The Castle also houses Circuit Catoptron, one of the two [[RSFC|RSF]] tracks in Arbemaisonnes; the track goes around the mentioned three parts. The castle also features a dungeon.
| |
|
| |
| ==== North wing ====
| |
| The castle's north wing functions as the main entrance, with a forecourt on its east side. The wing also features a keep (central tower) with an approximate height of 110.25 blocks, along with several other towers.
| |
|
| |
| ==== South wing ====
| |
|
| |
| ==== Dungeon ====
| |
| As of early 2026, the dungeon mostly remains a large empty space beneath the castle; there has been no established floor levels and prison cells. However, there are some exceptions: there is an underground canal dock room and an adjacent [[Taiatea]] store beneath and connected to the castle's south wing. The dock's canal entrance is located west of the dock room.
| |
|
| |
| ==== Outdoors ====
| |
| The outdoors of the castle are mostly filled with snowy spruce trees. Pathways circle the castle, with outward access from the northern and southern parts of the castle's complex. A small, two-level dock house is situated east of the castle. On the castle's south, there is a still depiction of an "ice-frozen sheriff" along with two other figures. Other structures include a wooden arch and a ring hoop for the castle's RSF track.
| |
|
| |
| ==== Circuit Catoptron ====
| |
| Circuit Catoptron is a registered RSF track. Unlike many RSF tracks with their own unique structures, the track utilizes existing parts of the castle and its surroundings. The track starts on the castle's main entrance; it then goes north to the northwestern tower of the north wing, circling the interior while raising the floor level by one. After that, it goes eastward and briefly passes the castle's prayer room before going south. The track then turns east again, leading into the castle's interior garden. Past the garden, the track goes slightly westward before circling stairs. The track continues on the castle's south wing roof; it goes southeast before encountering a small stone arch and then a large wooden ring hoop. Its route bends east afterwards, passing through a wooden arch. The route then goes northeast before moving back indoors to a library. It then goes west, then north before arriving back at its start line.

| The castle area is listed in WorldGuard as "Dreamcastle". Zalidia is recorded as its owner, with no additional members. Before the castle was named Catoptron in-game, other suggested names include Candscence Keep and Kapiolani, with the latter being a reference to a song by the Japanese city pop band Casiopea.
