This often means establishing bases/strongholds. Whenever a likely dungeon, castle or tower is cleared, the PCs will often evaluate it as a new base. The campaign map changes significantly over time as some dungeons/lairs become 'points of light', and other areas fall into darkness. Currently one group holds formerly-ruined Fort Skulnar as the capital of a domain they are building, Ironwolf Manor. Another group rules from D'Ashe Festhall after killing Gurzun Half-Orc, the former festhall boss (corporate takeover with extreme prejudice) <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> and have begun expanding further - the dwarf PC Fraener has taken the ruined dwarf hold of Khundrakar as his fortress, while last session the elf prince Strohm retook the ancient elven tower of Solanna Bael.<img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiMEZirMsEta_xe0qYTepMTsh-lY2_uKQuWrUB7KQV8MwAzDxPH-5SQab0v5ykBEUlMMaq0pEUELuBrPOICYjKOKBmtEp_d3r0X295P8y-uNdHdEW3ipgFYkUll4BQRvDGvY38yrzBwyN1vdY3-7SlCSmLAHh4wmpzazcStno9pQW5jicsy57nEN2gTwQ=s16000" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></blockquote>
