[QUOTE="chutup, post: 5858705, member: 6690844"] [B]The Chasm of the Hounds [/B]Additional information for hex 04.08 (The Plains of Dogtur) Few know why the shamans of the Dogtur choose to move their camp constantly around the plains. However, if they were ever to set up permanent residence in the area, they would soon learn. An evil curse was placed upon these plains, which takes the form of a massive sinkhole opening up suddenly beneath one's feet. Though it can appear anywhere, the sinkhole is most often drawn toward large concentrations of human activity, especially if they stay in one place for too long. None have settled for longer than a month in this place before they draw the attention of the terrible chasm. Those who approach the chasm from the side, or somehow survive its initial assault, will find it possible to descend into that place and visit the tunnels beyond. No matter where the sinkhole appears, the same tunnels will be found, right down to the items (and skeletons) left there by previous delvers. The tunnels are inhabited primarily by dogs. Some are harmless, while others are vicious. The most dangerous are the enormous wolfhounds, big as boars, who can bite a man in two. These tunnels are the source of the Dogtur Plains' profusion of dogs. However, nobody is sure where the dogs originate from. Rumour has it that deep within the catacombs there resides an ur-dog, an enormous bitch with a hundred teats, constantly suckling one brood while she swells up with the next. Hooks: - What otherworldly treasures are to be found in the chasm? - Who placed the curse on the plains originally? Did it target the Dogtur, or are they just unfortunate bystanders? - What other types of dog-monsters dwell here? - Has anyone tried to settle these plains and been swallowed up by the pit? [/QUOTE]
