Machevel wanted untaxed/no-tarriff use of the river for everyone, Jungula wanted to be able to levy tariffs and fees according to thier whim.15 years ago this came to blows, and the great City-States of the Jungula paid the price for evading taxes and responsibilities when it came to thier walls and thier militaries. Within 10 years the war was over, with Machevel having absorbed over half of Jungula's pre-War land, and having smashed many of it's City States, including the great capital, known as the City of 1000 Fountains.Those Fountains didn't save the Capital or the Senate from Machevel's militaries, and only the interference of the Creelian Guilds convinced Machevel from overrunning Jungula compeltely.In the last 5 years little to nothing has been done to repair the vast ruins that cover the former nation. Famine and disease run rampant outside the great city-states, and indeed, many of the city-states have to deal with famine, as the farms lie untended for the last 5 years.Recently, wild Orcs, Kobolds, Goblins, and far worse have begun to move into the ruins, and more and more of the creatures summoned during the war have been spotted outside the ruins.THERE! We have our area to adventure.First, we need a base. How about a non-aligned, free "city", but not too big, we don't want to have to use crowbars to get the PC's out of it. There's a castle directly across the river from a ruin, complete with a ruined bridge.We can station the PC's there.How about we name the castle... Narsky Castle.The woods surrounding it is called: Gnaskell Forest.Before the war, it was a primary producer of soft and hard wood for Jungula, now it is infested with ghouls that came to feed off of the fallen soldiers and killed refugees as they fled the ruins of...Strasky. That's the name of the ruin.Now, I'll place that on the names sheet, and hit "Hide" again.OK, shall we now map the Keep, a section of the forest, and the Ruins of Strasky?OK, if you have an idea of how to get PC's started on an adventure here, speak now before I get to it or hold your damn peace.PS-Any way someone can make FCW valid upload files so I can quit RARing and Zipping them?</blockquote>
