[QUOTE="Eyes of Nine, post: 8963088, member: 99786"] [B]Week 10 - The Ghost Hex[/B] There is a bunch of stuff going on here - first off, it’s the first one that’s a hex within a hex. The inner hex is a tundra with weekly blizzards. In the center of it is a 1.5x1.5x1.5 mile white cube filled with an huge number of cryogenically (or magically) sleeping Githyanki (like, 40,000 plus of them). Nearby is the upgate, guarded by a Death Tyrant nicknamed "Giggles" and 30-ish undead minions. The outer hex is a vacuum, that’s filled with equipment and mostly unmoving golems - mostly of some sort of metal or stone. Frankly, it’s hella creepy. However, in the southeast corner there’s a the Commune of Iron, a community of awakened golems who are self-aware and sentient. They are in deep hiding - even the Tower overseers don’t know about them At the other side of the outer hex in the northwest is a downgate inbound (Bridgepoint) and downgate outbound (Downspout). There are small communities built up around each - although in a vacuum, they can only get so big. Downspout is actually enclosed in some sort of air bubble. There are a bunch of warehouses, and it’s operated by a rakshasha who looks like a wood elf named Abraxis Finally, [B]finally![/B] this is the first level that has a branch going off the tower. It can be accessed by a hidden maintenance tunnel; but there is also a gate. I forgot to put in the gate on this level - maybe that gate is broken and the only way to get to this branch is via the maintenance tunnel. The next X levels will have anywhere between 1 and 6 branches going off, with anywhere between 1 and 3 environments in each branch. I’m going to leave the last 6 levels as the final top levels of this tower. So from week 11 to week 46 will be trunk and branch “hexes” (Note, each branch will be done in an entire week) Questions I had about this level: [LIST=1] [*]What is up with the githyanki army? What event will awaken them, if any? [*]Will the Commune of Iron ever make themselves known? Why? [*]What is the relationship between Bridgepoint and Downspout?
