[QUOTE="alsih2o, post: 1919601, member: 4790"] I don't consider anyhting not made or highly affected by intelligent non-gods a wonder, but that is just me. :) A partial list- The Valley of Drayne- This enormous valley is composed of a variety of sshades of sandstone. It was once a lush forest that housed a strong community of gnomes. A weather mage made his home on the Long Lakes north of the site came to feud with the gnomes for reasons lost to time. In their battle the Drayne, the weather mage, created a huge thunderstorm over thier homeland that has rage in that locale for over 1000 years. Based on Thomas Moran's painting [I]Chasm of the Colorado[/I] - [url]http://www.nga.gov/feature/moran/chasmbig.shtm[/url] The Brideg and Wall at Maissen- Maissen sprung up on the banks of a great river that floods every spring. The people of Maissen woudl gather early every summer to build two new bridges across the river, with local merchants and nobles competing for attention by donating materials or men. As the city expanded a new outer wall was needed for protection and the wealthier classes threw themselves into a fervor over their contributions. This emotional overload eventually disentigrated into Clan and church skirmishes in the street and the disinclusion form business of Guilds that were seen as not having given enough, with "enough" continually increasing. Ballum, the Druid of the River grew ashamed of the behavior of the people of the town and went to the banks of the river late at night and began casting. He was still casting when the sun rose and began to draw attention from the city. After 5 days of chanting and gesturing Ballum had drawn a huge crowd and the Church factions grew nervous. On the sixth day Stone arose, a solid block of stone extending across the river and circling the town. Ballum claimed that the wall and bride would serve them well but that the river would return to claim them both and the people of Maissen had best be prepared to work together by then. Highhold- Highhold is the only open entrance to the largest dwarven lair in the world. It rests in a cross always filled with snow where the dwarves say the great Ghost Dragon nested. The 30x30 circular hallway that leads into the mountain is 1500 feet long and is actually the barrel of the worlds only cannon. The PC's were recently present at the first firing of it in 600 years. This is based on Moran's [I]Holy Crossing[/I] - [url]http://www.nga.gov/feature/moran/holycrossbig.shtm[/url] More later... :) [/QUOTE]
