Just a few questions about Soulgrave. Is the city where the dead get up and walk at night and the Free City of Soulgrave one in the same? Are there dead corpses up and wondering the streets of Free city after night?

Are there any plans to have Maps of the some of the major Cities (Archbridge, Soulgrave, etc...) done in the near future?

Thanks
Dave

Dave,

There are 2 "Soulgraves." One is the Free City, the other is the necropolis.

As for city maps, the is a project being written right now that will include a city map, although neither Archbridge or Soulgrave.

Thanks Harley,

Just the clarification I needed. One more question, how close is the Necropolis to the Free City, and does one affect the other?

Sad to hear no maps of Archbridge or Soulgrave. I will have to throw something together myself.

Dave,

The Soulgrave (the necropolis) is about 27 miles outside of Soulgrave (the Free City), but the only way there is up a mountain road that makes travel difficult during most of the year, and almost impossible during winter and late spring.


Much of the Free City trade is due to nobles passing through on their way to inter their dead in the necropolis. Without the necropolis, there would be no reason for the Free City to exist, and it would dwindle and quickly die.

The necropolis, for its part, relies on the Free City for nothing but victims. :twisted:

Publicly, the people of the Free City do everything in their power to avoid the necropolis (or more accurately, its legions of undead), but in practice many a foolish rogue has died trying to loot a Soulgrave tomb. There is even an underground "guild" (Arkham's Ghouls) devoted to this practice, but they are a foul group of hardened, veteran tomb robbers, certainly not fit for the company of heroes like your PCs. ;)

You know that I can't say no to Pimp Daddy Ogre. Especially that 4-finger ring that says "PUPPY" in diamonds.
