[QUOTE="Beowolf, post: 2853332, member: 18770"] one thing i belive we often over look in mines is their very cramped nature, ive heard of even modern mines that have areas where you have to crawl to get through. as mentioned above water is an often overlooked feature that constantly plauges mines, even todays water pumps cant get it all out all the time so after a rain there could easily be huge pools in low spots that the pumps havent drained yet. another thing to consider is d&d magical nature, consider what magic could have done to help mine or fix problems like water and unstable passages, magical torches for lighting and they dont ignite gas ( ooo another hazard) as for actual appearance, think dark,very dark. also constant dripping wetness and mosture, falling clumps of dust and creacking support beams. in the deep distance you hear some rocks fall with an echoing crack. that sort of forboding atmosphere , also try to really pump the clastrophobic effect, the tightening corridors and cramped rooms. hope the ideas help.
