[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 3498212, member: 19675"] I like the idea of the reverse Nightfall (good, no GREAT story, BTW). Mary Gentle's Books of Ash series has a city under perpetual night as a curse that must be lifted by force of arms... To help deal with the sunlight thing, the city could be famed for its magnificent hanging gardens...which just coincidentally block most of the direct sunlight. The running water thing? I've been to (modern) Venice- having someone cart your body around over the water would be a serious pain. OTOH, if they're in power, smart & forward thinking, they could dam up the waters in a creative way, having the water flow [I]around [/I]the city most of the day, stilling the water in the city, and allowing the water to flow (preventing stagnation) only during certain hours of the day. You may also wish to pick up a copy of Vampire Kingdoms for RIFTS. [/QUOTE]
