With the above considerations, how do the orcs play into this? Are they a group trading with the dungeon denizens? Or have they simple camped at its front door? Now, if the dungeon is undead, traps, oozes, plants and bugs, then little interaction could be expected by any means so the above wouldn't need to apply. None of these you have to answer, but they are things I would suggest you think about, if you haven't already.įirst, what is the ecology of this mega dungeon? I ask this because, if it is huge, and has hundred of creatures living within, how has it remained mostly isolated from it's surroundings? Is it self-contained? Are the entrance/exits controlled so their is little exchange with the surrounding communities? (I assume yes, otherwise the locals would already know about it.) Perhaps there are some entrance/exits, but they are via portals or planar travel so their is little exchange with the locals. There are rumors of a few groups going in, but not of any of them returning. Adventurers have been looking for this for centuries.

LET WHAT LIES BURIED STAY THAT WAY” They realize that this is the Lost Tomb of Ataxus. If they are able to translate this writing, it will say something along the lines of “ABANDON HOPE, ALL YE WHO ENTER THE LOST TOMB OF ATAXUS. When they get there, they will find a strange symbol and some strange writing. If they’re able to clear the castle, they will find in the dungeon (assuming they go there) a door to a sub-dungeon. When they take off after the Orcs they find them at an old abandoned castle that lays in ruins. They also find out that this is not the first time they’ve been raided by these same Orcs. With a little asking around, they discover the general direction the Orcs came from. It seems that the town has just been raided by the Orcs of the Closed Fist. The adventuring party arrives in the town of Grendal to find the town in complete disarray. The only thing I ask is that if you hate my idea please tell me a) Why you hate it and b)How you might change it (though a is more important to me than b). Now, I'm a big boy if you hate it and say so, I'm not going to run crying to my mommy and never log on to the internet again. Writing the set up to get the party to the dungeon, so let me know what you think. I'll probably write it for 5e and 1e/BECMI and have it take a group from 1st level all the way to somewhere between 11th and 13th. Working on an idea for a megadungeon that I want to write.
