One for Cormyr.

Sschindylryn

 
 
Well after my plug for the PW Forgotten Realms Cormyr I had a few more chats with Sin the Admin for the server and decided to throw my lot in with him.  I had been planning on taking my copy of the old server I helped build and put it onto the vault as I think it deserved better than just having all that work die off.  The excellent work by E.V with scripts and GUI's especially should be showcased a lot more.
 
Anyway with myself joining FRC I offered Sin the module to rip apart and use what he wants, mostly interiors as he has nearly all of his exteriors built for the initial launch.  Keeping each part of Cormyr with the same feel is something we need to try to do and my areas do have a different feel to his.  Hopefully Ill get some exteriors up at a later date after we go live, I really want to get back to doing some mountian areas!
 
On Gray Isles I did have a large underdark though outside of the Grimmhold I was largely unhappy with the wilderness areas so they are getting a revamp to make them a lot more interesting!  As the Underdark under Cormyr is not well known in terms of lore it does leave us a good amount of freedom in what we do.  What we do know is we have the following points of interest:
 
Sschindylryn - Drow Trade City
Blessed Seahaven - Kuo-Tuo Temple
Lake of Shadows - A lake (clue is in the name!)
 
I have started work on the Drow City of Sshindylryn (try saying it fast 3 times).  Chatting with Sin gave me a few ideas as coming up with something with a "drow" feel can be hard at times.  I am probably 90% through mapping the exterior at the moment so Ill give you a few sneak peeks!
 






 Still a lot of work to go as all the interiors have to be done but it should be a place our evil little drow want to hang out.
