Dunwarren

Cult of Urdlen

I found a hidden trapdoor wich led me to a place it is evident a urdlen cult was at some point active be it during the time of Dunwarren or be it during the time of sanctary. Their are only 6 holes and an alter clearly indicating this cult of urdlen wasnt active or as powerful as some might think. Unless this was 1 of many sacrificaial places. Evidence would suggest that the cult of urdlen has or had no connection. with the chosen considering how hidden the sacrificial chamber it is it clearly was a minimal ammount of the svirfneblin population. The choen are roaving ammount unless of course of the chosen started as a small populatin wich opens up 2 theorys.

1 the chosen where a small cult of urdlen then through infection they infected the majority of the population and crippled the svirfneblin and then the chosen for over hundreds of years began breeding like rats to have the large numbers they have today.

However they lost touch with urdlen and instead worshiped an entity known as te appetite. wich raises the question where the lycanthrope disease came from.

2 The Cult of Urdlen was acive but quickly disolved.

3 This cult of Urdlen was active within Sanctuary and has othing to do with Dunwarren.

Animatrons

1 Created to resist mind spells. For what purpose? The svirfneblin feared the illithid so the svirfneblin made animatrons to resist and be immune to mental powers of the illlithid. I believe their purpose was either secuirity of something. or its purpose was to combat illithid. Knowing the cowardly nature of Svirfneblin its likely they perfered animatrons t do the fighting instead of them.

2 Animatrons for some reason are battling the chosen. (possibly a war between svirfneblin and chosen so the animatrons had an order to slay all were rats. or non svirfneblin.) If my calculations are right the animatrons are loosing this war.

3 No evidence suggests spirits or necromancy are used to make these.

4 Studying some ancient pictures its possible the machine was originally invented for the sole purpose of gathering Gems not battling at all.

5 Further evidence suggests Animatrons where also made to store objects and information and kill thievies.

Chosen.

1 Lycanthrope Svirfneblin.

2 Absoloutly barbaric with utter disreguard for tactics strategy or compassion Ive seen these creatures cast fireballs and blow up their own men just to try to kill us.

3 Wizards possibly leaders????????????

4 Worship an entity known as the appetite its what keeps them unified if I where to study what the appetite is and kill it then........The chose would kill and eachother.

The Svirfneblin of Dunwaren.

1 a Suite of Svirfneblin plate I saw was enhanted against Lycan thrope animatrons undead and elves (in other words drow to) Its possible svirfneblin where use to fighting these things so its possible Drow definetly raided the svirfneblin.

2 The Svirfneblin where very warlike unlike most. (Or is it possbly just the chosen?)

3 The Svirfneblin where having some kind of war with the chosen to deny that is utter foolish.

4 a small number of them worshiped Urdlen. (still a theory.)

5 Svirfneblin angered or worshiped the apptite???????????

6 They had local authorties.

7 Possibility a substance known as AX9 Can drive people crazy and help power animatrons. AX9 Turn people to were rats?

Notes

The Illithid!

Illithid and sanctuary?

1Its possible the illithid and other slaving colonies allow sanctuary exst so they can keep extracting slaves from us. THe illithid even reffered to Sanctuary as the breeder colony.

2 Illithid Control Sanctuary? Its possible the illithid control Sanctuary and everything that gos on it with everyone unaware. Its possible the rebels and the loayalists have illithids controlling them and their pitting themselves together as a show for the illithid!

3 Intryzz=Cheated Illithid despised? in Intryzzes speach he strangey tried t give sanctuary advice and tried to trick lunatics into becoming thralls. Its possible Intryzz might control Sanctuary he has already enthralled a rich founding family its possible he contros everything.

4 Illithid tricks? Itd odd they have a super weapon and they havent used it on us? maybe their having us tricked so that they can luanch an attack on the drow. I believe its possible these illithid in ysione will use their super weapon on traensfyr and are making us think this so the drow are distracted. or maybe that was all an illusion and etorix was slain by drow and the kobolds no longer worship him. Or maybe the kobolds are thralls to. Or mybe THE ILLITHID WANT TO ENTHRALL US ALL AND MAKE US ALL THRALLS IM NOT GONNA BE ONE OF THEM AGAIN NEvER NEVER!

5 Slaying Illithid? Apparantly a few in sanctuary have done it I must contact them I must learn illithid battle techniques and the weakness of the illithid.

Weakness possibility animatrons thy cnt infect those with their mind powers because they have no mind.

Undead -vile creatures a true evil but when combatting a greater evil sometimes the ends justifys the means. Animateing dead rebels or enemies o r dead soldiers to serve us again could prove useful weapons. However the current idots dont have the guts to comimit a little evil to prevent us from dieing.

My father always said "Get it done I dont care what you have to do." If only sanctuary was like my father.

Illithid technology.

Powerful equipment made of a squishy organic material. Some of these items weakens the mind so the illithid can retain their dominance. It is noted that their equipment is made to arm thralls. However a former thall was able to acquire them. These devices dont enthrall people but b y wearing them you make your mind more vulnerable. And its possible illithid have these devices to track down their servants.
