Creativity Workshop: B4 The Lost City
This one guy on twitter, @Moldvay Redeemed, talks about The Lost City module a lot. A LOT.
We have been bouncing ideas around for a couple of years now.
Today I had some downtime at the, ah, place of employment. So I started jotting down some notes.
This is really off-the-cuff stuff, it will get more organized!
I decided the language of the people of the underground city would sound a bit like Spanish.
Cynidicea (kai-nee-dee-THAY-ah) is the Temple-City of the Zargonnen cult. At the top of the social pyramid is the Priest Class:
Fanatical
Obsessed with cleanliness
Administration of the Temple-City
Military forces and leadership
Next on the hierarchy is the Aristocracy:
Corrupt nobility
Hedonistic
Drug-addicted
Violent toward the Underclasses
Strict Caste-system
Below them (Far below!) are the Hereditary Underclasses,
Craftsmen & Trades - skilled workers
Warriors/Miners - Effectively slaves, highly socially-conditioned castes
Scourmen (name??) - Prisoners or those punished for treason/violent crimes are punished by cleaning all of the stone buildings, by hand, every day.
I also drafted two custom character classes
I am definitely thinking of basing the character classes on Oriental Adventures, but, this is a brainstorming project right now, so we shall see!
I made a short video to go over some of the preliminary work:
I look forward to questions or comments.
