Big Eagle Mountain

There's been some talk lately about megadungeons (again - this stuff is cyclical, it seems); I don't have any real commentary on the issue other than to say that I don't think I've ever actually run a megadungeon.  It's something that might interest me in the future, though, which is why there's a megadungeon in Wampus Country.  It exists as a phantom at the corner of my mind; nothing has ever been run there, but ideas accumulate, and it's part of the background of the setting.  Maybe someday it will get more detailed and some adventurers will go there.  Until then, Big Eagle Mountain is just local color.

Big Eagle Mountain is the highest peak of the northern range, and although many people are aware of the existence of labyrinths within and beneath the mountain, Big Eagle still holds many secrets.  Scholars and wizardly types know the mountain was once a hub of the Simian civilization which predates our own; and many brave and foolhardy explorers have plumbed the depths to search for - and occasionally survive - the so-called City of Mazes.

So mysterious is Big Eagle Mountain that even your humble blogger doesn't know much about it.  I know that the "City of Mazes" is the labyrinthine structure left behind by the Simians...everything else is a bit up in the air.

    Heya Rook! Nice to see you didn't fall off the edge of the world. It's getting harder to keep track of the oldies when no one uses instant messenger anymore. :p

    Any chance you and/or Ronica have Facebook, or is Google+ too much as it is? :p
