Klippika is a site in The Plains which can be seen from Kazkan's Farm. It is a ring of six tall conical crags which surround a central circular lake. It is considered a holy site by the elves of Klippika village, who associate it with the god Corellon. A group of worshippers known as The Watchers of the Water maintain a vigil at the lakeside, led by the high priestess Quelenna, who is the only person permitted to enter the holy waters. The vigil watches for "Corellon's Stars", blue-white lights which can be seen moving around deep below the surface of the water on certain nights.

The crags themselves are about 300' high, and are shaped like smooth cones with rounded tops. They're made of what looks like a dark grey stone, but it still has a slightly metallic sheen to it. For some reason, they look grown, rather than built. The hexagon they form is about 1200' across, and the Elves had put up 30' high poles between the crags to string their banners from.

In the spaces between the six crags are strung dark blue banners bearing the white star of Corellon, as well as small bells which chime in the wind. One side of the site is kept clear of banners, where the road comes in from Klippika village.

The pool in the middle is circular, quite shallow at the edge, getting deeper towards the middle, before plunging into a deep funnel at the centre.
