Sundragar

Sundragar

Sundragar is a name in the fae language. It means "Sun cage." This city was never meant to be beautiful. It was always meant to be a prison to the sun goddess, Lhireiya, and so it serves it's purpose. She is kept in a cage of black iron, chained by her wrists and ankles to four different corners of the cage. She is stripped naked, and set in the center of the central cavern of the black city. Day in and day out, the corrupted peoples of this place, primarily fae and elves, will drink of her blood, and, as their souls blacken and their bodies fade into undeath, they succumb to vampirism. Vampirism who's one main weakness is purged by the consumption of the goddess's blood.

The entire city is ruled over by a black hearted fae priest, a Marsh Fae led into a hidden temple and corrupted by it's magics. He has formed himself into an undead fiend, a dracolich, and commands his underlings from a great cathedral he carved himself, in a huge stalactite above the goddess's cage.

The rest of the city is a warren of twisting tunnels and caverns. The undead there mindlessly work, chipping away at the walls, mining for precious metals to fill out their master's hoard, or simply expanding his influence. They never need rest, nor sleep, but their bodies do decay, if they are lesser, and if one were to walk through a tunnel, they may step on bits of discarded flesh and bone.
