The entrance to this small habitat is found close to the river bank east of Trinsic in the mountain range which encloses Hidden Valley (121.27’S 27.12’E 1710, 3006). Occupants of this primitive dwelling under the mountain are a tribe of Troglodytes; their leader, Lurg; his pet bear, Grobu and various other pet bears, cats and dogs. The condition of the dwelling also has invited giant rats to join them there.

  Two rivers emerge from mountains close to Trinsic, the southern river is beside the entrance to Painted Caves, the Northern River is at the point where a Volcano Tunnel emerges from the mountain (111.31’S 22.46’E 1647, 2893). This tunnel leads to an enclosed Hidden Valley. The only occupants of the valley are a group of mages selling their goods in, and around, a lonely mage tower. The entrance to the tower is at the top of a flight of steps, the doors may be locked (on some shards). Behind those doors, on Felucca facet but not in Trammel, an […]

Extending from the entrance a long tunnel occupied by orcs, orc lords, orc scouts and orc choppers leads to the first of three large cave areas. A palisade across the opening restricts access while beyond a dire wolf joins the orcs roaming the area. Steps […]

Initially the landscape is wooded. This is the location of the altar for the champion Twualo of the Glade and at the northern boundary of the wood is found Swoop, one of the Named Creatures. The deep sand area beyond swoop’s nest slows movement and is home to changelings, satyrs, dryads, dire wolves and the elven canine Cu Sidhe; the […]
