[QUOTE="MechaTarrasque, post: 7742104, member: 6801226"] I don't use the Astral Sea much, and I find that the good parts fit Archeron pretty well (two so-so realms can become one really good one). I tend to use the AD as living battle ships used by Grummish's orcs traveling between cubes. It wouldn't take too many orcs with crossbows (and maybe an orc tempest cleric) to complicate a PC vs. AD fight..... If anyone is interested, in my setting Archeron came about when an army of devils invaded Mechanus, and the modrons fearing cultural contamination (devils aren't completely respectable), blew up the section that the devils had invaded. Archeron is the debris-filled space between the 9 Hells and Mechanus. The modrons stocked the section closest to Mechanus with things like steel predators and archeria to discourage less respectable beings from trying to enter their territory, there is a large space full of gobliniods vs. orcs, part of the destroyed territory was a museum that had statues of dead gods and primordial--the space where the museum's debris floats is where the githyanki settled, and the shrapnel-filled section closest to the 9 Hells is full clockwork abominations (from Tome of Beasts), spirits of lesser devils fused into metal, and automata devils (from Fifth Edition Foes), spirits of greater devils fused into the metal. All of these devils were mentally messed up by the fusion, and they tend to attack any nondevils as potential "invaders" of the 9 Hells. [/QUOTE]
