Explore the Verdant Expanse - J6

General Summary

Let's Go Exploring!

  From the Journal of Extraplanar Archaeology, Vol XII - Nightal 1374 “Ancient Mounds Harboring Ancient Treasures” by Pall Gar, Philo-Archaeologist   The material sub-plane vulgarly named “Pandora” by the recent crop of colonists continues to offer more evidence of prehistoric civilizations. I have discovered several dozen instances of inland shipwrecks, as if the continent’s rivers were once connected to the sea, but no evidence of these barbarians’ permanent settlements survive.   On the subject of barbarians, I employed one or two of the local warlords after I found planar binding to be non-efficacious in controlling the dig site. Pandora is a world rich in resources and I no longer recommend communing with non-local planar intelligences as their rapacity may very well outstrip one’s own desire for knowledge. Fortunately, the local “intelligences” are easy enough to conscript, and a well-placed illusion or enchantment will guarantee their quick acquiescence to providing any site requirements, especially for the offer of gold. I was able to secure their help with eliminating nearly all newly-introduced hostile non-local planars, and I recommend local conscription to any other fellows who wish to excavate further relics.   Now seeking recruits for a secondary expedition beyond the lake, recently-rechristened by yours truly, though the locals insisted on the old name of Baiter's Lake. Seek Pall Gar at Drake’s Harbour’s inn. Bring tools and completed waivers.
