[QUOTE="The_Gneech, post: 6450668, member: 6779"] I actually put the myconids in there as a wildcard– I decided they have a hard time telling different types of "meat people" apart and so don't get into faction wars. They attack anything that comes at them with hostility, and ignore or parley anything else. I was also thinking it might be amusing to set up some kind of merchant there, but I haven't figured out what. A traveling gnome scholar who's been living among the mushrooms just a little too long, perhaps. If they're crazy enough (or high-level enough) to go rafting down a lava flow into dungeon levels full of demons, they can probably take on a beholder. ;) Everything down that road is intended for future campaign expansion rather than immediate use. A spellcasting wight works too. Or a ghoul, or even a lich or heucuva. FWIW I don't have any books on the underdark either, just the bits I've picked up from drow supplements or other modules over the years. I sort of see it as somewhere between Wonderland, Pellucidar, and Dante's Inferno. With just a hint of Dark Crystal thrown in. -The Gneech :cool: [/QUOTE]
