[QUOTE="TanithT, post: 5773479, member: 87695"] Probably nothing we can post here without using a lot of asterisks. Graffiti can be nice flavor/fluff text, especially in a city setting. I don't do a lot of "dungeon crawls" per se, where the premise is that for some reason you have a bunch of underground rooms populated by monsters guarding treasures of unknown origin with no visible ecosystem, economy or culture. But if you have a reason to go exploring underground, and a structure that makes sense, the graffiti should fit with the culture of its inhabitants. Which generally means you're likely to see a lot of variants of the F-word in Orcish. Probably with crudely drawn illustrations. If you look at the graffiti archaeologists have found on Roman walls, a pretty large percentage of it is something like "Lucius ****ed Mencius" or "Primus ****ed Principia". And the aforementioned illustrations. There's some pretty solid scholarly material on the subject if anyone cares enough to go digging for it. [/QUOTE]
