Cap, Think of it like this... the city's been around for a while, and it has constantly expanded deeper and deeper... one day 100 years ago a dwarven excavation team opened a tunnel into a new network of natural tunnels... but something erupted from the darkness and slew all the team...When a force was sent to investigate, they found out what happened (using a speak with dead or the like) but then they were attacked and one dwarf made it back...Several military campaigns have been pushed into the new region, and new defenses put into to place in case what's down there wants to come up...  All of the efforts have ended with failure in one form or another, and After one raid 50 years ago, the dark inhabitants struck back, with an army of undead dwarves that it has created from its kills... Many of the tunnels leading to the area have been stoneshaped closed, and the ones left open are heavily trapped and defended...Since the Dwarves have stopped trying to advance, there have been few incursions by the enemy...-----This has great potential for someone wanting to do an Underdark adventure, without having to use drow or illithids (although they are certainly possibilities)I think we've got good stuff coming out here...  Forgefather is nice, the ancient wonders sound really neat.  I will start doing some preliminary work on the government, based on what we've discussed so far... then I'll present it to see what you have to say...two important notes to everyone... 1.) we're not in a hurry here, I would rather this be good than rushed2.) some ideas are going to be shot down... that absolutely doesn't mean we don't want your help, but sometimes things won't fit.  Please don't take it personally, and keep trying.Once we start getting things in motion, we'll need to gather the text in a central place for things like editing and proofing.  By that time, we may want to have some official roles designated...  (i.e. writer, editor, idea man, graphic design, etc...)  We're a ways away from worrying about that though. If it seems like I am taking charge, it's only because it's my idea and I started the thread... but the bottom line is that I want this to be a community effort, something we can all take pride in... who knows... if this gets big enough, maybe we'll need to get our own site one day!</blockquote>
