What's kept some high level groups from getting together and just cleansing the whole place?Then I had a thought...It could be called the Pillars of the World and basically it's part of that plane, but has artifact like, indestructible pillars that create a veil between them that connects to other Planes. There would be thousands of sets of pillars scattered throughout this whole labyrinthian underground structure. A few (very, very few) know some of the secrets of moving through the Planes with the veils between the portals. But the most immediate problem is the amount of random crap (monsters, creatures from other planes and the like) that wound up stuck there and set up shop when the portals activate and pull them through. The constant tide of replenshing monsters would be an outstanding reason to have multiple adventurers in the place and to put in just about anything you wanted. If the players get high enough level and find out some of the secrets to the Pillars, then you could make up why they exist. My favorite answer was that they are the creation of a race of beings from an ancient age. They were growing old and tired of this world, but feeling the encroachment of the new younger races (like Elves and Dwarves) they created the Pillars to summon up armies to send at these younger races to whittle them down some. This has been soooo long ago, even the Elves have forgotten. Something a few hundred years ago awoke the Pillars and adventurers have been travelling in there ever since cleaning the place out.
