Questionmark Posted - 01 Mar 2008 : 20:10:38
I am looking for detailed information on the city of Dunspeirrin, population, slaves, assets and all that. The description in the underdark book is very vague for such a big city, which leads me to believe that a more detailed description is out there.
please help! My players will want to go there soon! As a side note my campaign revolves around some freed slave pcs who have taken it upon themselves to form a "Underground Railroad" of sorts with the ultimate goal of freeing the slaves of the underdark and abolishing slavery across faerun. So if anyone has played any simmilar adventures along these lines I would love to hear how they went. This is my first post on candlekeep and I am increadibly impressed with the community that has been built here.

Thanks,

?

Actually, it was.

"The city of Underspires, known as Dunspeirrin in the tongue of the Stout Folk (dwarves),..." ['The City of Sunken Spires' -- DRAGON #267]

They probably hadn't come up with the pun yet.

The city has also been mentioned in Eytan Bernsteins Class Chronicles article Blues, Dueargars and Elans.

See for references to 'Underspires' in previous material -- especially Drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark and Eric Boyd's "City of Sunken Spires" article in DRAGON #267.
