I don't have enough time to DM an adventure right now, but I'm starting to think about one. Also, if you guys like the idea, I'd like to add a new place in the Shifting Seas that might make it easier for DMs to find a weird place to adventure without having to invent something entirely new or link it to the outside world if they don't have the time.It's nothing new or original, I think someone already proposed something similar here too, but I think it's practical and easily usable by different people with no regard for coherence among adventures from different DMs.Basically, a small, small shifting Island has an entrance to a a maze (and here people think "Ugh! Another maze!") that develops underground for an unknown distance, fro many miles on each level. If you remember "The World's Largest Dungeon" you'll see immediately what I mean. An enclosed environment so large that entire sub-cultures of different races have developed. Unknown arcane experiments have created cracks in reality that allowed pieces of varius planes to mix with the "regular" dungeon (and I think this is good at the low levels we're adventuring at, so a DM who wants to play in a piece of Feywild or Elemental chaos doesn't have to justify a plane travel or downgrade the hardness of such an environment). If more Dms decide to use this, simply create more hidden accesses, the Maze is so large that multiple parties on the same level might never meet.To make things more interesting, a secret organization has secret interests in the place: the Order of the Phoenix. The few that know of its existance have figured out their intention is the "renewal" or "rebirth" of something, but we don't even need to figure out exactly what right now, since it's the kind of thing that could evolve into an overarching threat at higher levels of play. They might have a double facade, offering to hire adventurers to explore newly discovered sections of the Maze, or opposing the ones that disrupt their interests. All in disguise, obviously. Think Dreaming Dark + Lords of Dust, in a way.Now I know this is full of cliches. But it's a comfortable environment to create adventures in, both short and long, and anyway, if cliches have become cliches, there's gotta be some good in them.What do you think?</blockquote>
