In Blendlore, the Board of Shafts, otherwise called the Board of Ormotes, is a layout of the blendlorely shafts, byset into: uncleftish tally, bernstonebit fettle, and blendlorely hallmarks.
The Board of Shafts was first made by the Russish blendloresman, Dmitri Mendeleev in the mid-nineteenth yearhundred. Mendeleev's finding led to an outbreaking in the field of blendlore, and was outstanding in the later unriddling of the Uncleftish Beholding.
