==Inhabitants== | |||
Within the caverns the cryptic [[Beastlords]] dwell and [[Kasha]], a young maiden, is enslaved. Also found below the ground are the serpent-like [[ophidians]]. | |||
The tight corridors of the Great Rock caverns are also home to bat-like stirges, whose eggs are delicacy among the ophidians. In one of the larger chambers, [[Arinas]] the Entomologist studies all species of insects. He is accompanied by a giant rhinoceros beetle, whom he has affectionately named [[Herbie]]. | The tight corridors of the Great Rock caverns are also home to bat-like stirges, whose eggs are delicacy among the ophidians.
