Morrahir

Massive Dungeon Complex
Morrahir is an underground complex found in southern Karnathas. It is sometimes known as the City Under the Mountain due to its immense size, though it's also known as the Charnel House for all those who've gone in and never returned. Morrahir is actually an interconnected set of cavern complexes, dwarven halls, and other subterranean features. The entrance to the city is a huge sea cave.

The "City Under the Mountain" has had many tenants over the years. Originally it was an underground city built by an unknown people who abandoned it ages ago. It was later found by the Runir who occupied and expanded it and gave it the name Morrahir. The Runir were eventually driven out by goblinoid attacks. In later years it was occupied by humans, but after their king died without an heir the citizens split into warring factions which eventually led to their downfall.

Due to expansions, mining, and other activities Morrahir became much more than a single city. Besides the city proper, which is currently home to various monsters, humanoid tribes, and Undead, other features and areas include:

  • The College of Dead Wizards (who appear as shadows)
  • Numerous underground waterways and connections to the Underworld
  • A great dwarven treasure hall built after the Runir took occupancy
  • A chain of caverns where certain mushrooms grow that are not found anywhere else in the world
  • A large subterranean trading town that makes Blackport look like Lionsgate
