[QUOTE="Klaus, post: 5289218, member: 607"] Just got my copy. A few suggestions for folks wishing to flesh out Kiris Dan a bit more: [sblock] The city of Kiris Dan has always been famous for its hot springs. Wealthy nobles and merchants would spend days -- and gold -- here, during the height of Nerath, to enjoy the city's baths. This influx of wealth led to Kiris Dan being built in graceful stone arches and edifices, with the Kiris Manor standing atop it all. Throughout its history, Kiris Dan was always able to fend off minor incursions from goblins that lived in the nearby swamps, mostly due to Nerath's knights and patrols. Kobolds would sometime crawl up from the sewers, but these were dealt with easily. After the fall of Nerath, the rulers of Kiris Dan had to resort to their secret weapons, the slaying stones. In the aftermath of the empire's downfall, nobles and merchants stopped coming, and the city fell on hard times. Buildings were closed up, some crumbled, others were taken up by kobold settlers. When few humans remained, another goblin raiding party was surprised to find little resistance, and the nearby goblin tribes moved into the ruined, abandoned city. [/sblock] For visuals, I recommend that Kiris Dan be described as something akin to Osgiliath, from the Lord of the Rings trilogy: [IMG]http://www.osgiliath.nl/Figjes/osgiliath.gif[/IMG] [IMG]http://mafoliemonenvie.unblog.fr/files/2008/07/osgiliath.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img-nex.theonering.net/images/scrapbook/orig/9300_orig.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
