It's the end of the world as we know it!
The Bunker is the name of my hideout. It's not really over-done, and resembles the underlying hideout map, but the backstory is what I went for:
An unknown sorcerer triggered a massive magical disturbance in Wraeclast. Vorici, it turns out, had scoped out a hiding place long ago (no one was surprised) and grabbed Zana, a few other Masters and one exile he could trust, then sealed the lair behind them. Zana used spare parts and her knowledge of the fractured geometry of Wraeclast to build a map portal generator so that they could forage for food and supplies occasionally, but until the horrors on the surface subside, they'll each stake out their little patch of this tiny bunker and make due... The parts of the bunker are each designed to match the story. Each Master has a little bit of the trappings of their preferred environment around them and the map device is part of a very clunky, steampunk sort of machine which appears to have a hand-crank! There's even a quiet space for anyone to go and be alone with their thoughts, should the close quarters become too frustrating. So far, everyone has survived! The Bunker: Screenshots A few additional details: There are two mtxes: the whisps floating around Zana as she maintains the energies driving the map device and a lizard that the Masters have let roam the place because of its penchant for eating insects. The practical elements include: quick access between vendor, stash and map device; high density crafting area (also close to stash, but separated enough not to look like it's all thrown together); PvP master off to the side since I don't PvP much and a few obscured braziers for extra light. |
