The next phase will take the PCs to the ruins of the original Corun's Glen from late 200's and early 300's. The area is infested by Red Orcs =20 of miscellaneous outcasts from Broken lands, and the main plot it to =20 find a usable passage to Lower Broken lands. I have the main plotline =20 pretty much covered, with the addition of a few Shadowelf agents =20 trailing the PCs. (They managed to lose their pursuers in Corunglain, =20 but they were stup.. I mean tactically imprudent enough to reemerge =20 from the underground ruins to deposit some loot in their bank! I guess =20 they just plain forgot that they were hunted. Well anyhow, the SE are =20 again hot on their tracks.) But I'd like to flesh out the human culture of the late 200's. This is =20 still the time when orcs are being driven our of present-day Darokin. =20 Settlement of Corun's Glen signs the beginning of full-human Darokin. What I'm looking for is: - The general nature of the human culture - The technology level - Architecture, heraldics... So anything that would help make Farold Corun's people real to the players. I've drawn on Aaron's timelines in my description of the era: - 291 Farold Corun takes on the offer made by king Anos II and gathers =20 a mercenary force to liberate the areas north of Darokin. His fighters =20 defeat the orcs, and Corun builds the first permanent settlement in =20 the area of present-day Corunglain (Corun's Glen) - 293 Settlement of Corun's Glen is complete, and the new king Mithras =20 II wishes make Farold Corun a duke and annex the Corunglain region as =20 the Northern Duchy. Farold declines and declares Corunglain a Free =20 City-State. Nevertheless, Corunglain will soon become a close ally of the Darokin Kings. ******************************************************************** The Other Worlds Homepage: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/OtherWorlds.asp The Mystara Homepage: http://www.pandius.com To unsubscribe, send email to LISTSERV@ORACLE.WIZARDS.COM with UNSUB MYSTARA-L in the body of the message. ------------------------------ End of MYSTARA-L Digest - 3 Aug 2007 to 9 Aug 2007 (#2007-71) *************************************************************
