High Tech Mysticism & High Caliber Adventure Encounter - The De Media Silvis

The chicken house of Baba Yaga is often seen marching through the 
the De Media Silvis & all sane folks avoid it. 



"Mayhap I shall find curious adventure - mayhap my doom awaits me. But better death than the ceaseless and everlasting urge, the fire that has burned my veins with bitter longing."
-Robert E. Howard, "The Hills of the Dead" 

Captain the darkness it took the men & then the invaders as well. There were things among the trees & there was laughter there. The sound was deafening & then came the roars then the biggest son of a bitch I've ever seen saved up. He & his men slayed the dark things with the hoofs, claws, & tentacles. They're offering their services Captain & sir I think we should take em up on it. "

Introduction 

Just beyond the fires of the men of Drow City there lays another deeper wilderness that connects the long shadows of various worlds. There is the deeper woodlands, the alien woodlands where the reality of the wilderness washes against  the  Kerouac Wilderness. These are places where the Drow refuse to go for here there are monsters dark & dangerous. This place is where even the most dangerous giant has pause & the Night Trolls don't even dark to venture. Here deeper woodlands cross into the realm of nightmare & the monsters are even worse. 
Frog like twilight goblins stalk the darkness as the air it lit up with the glow from the Underworld that casts weird borealis in the skies above. Shadow dragons via with the Scum of Shub Niggurath as ghoul tribes trade blows with heroes who come here to test their meddle against the incredibly dangerous monsters. 



The De Media Silvis touches many planes & even the occasional Gug will venture here as the curse of the Elder Ones does not bother them here. They come to the ancient standing stones & will make war with the Hyperboreans from the far future who come to make offerings to the Elder Ones. One or more of these tribesmen is sacrificed to appease the carnal appetites of the Gugs or the scum of Shub Niggurath near the giant circles of Koth.

The city ruins of Sbcrath Koth are found deep in the dark forests guarded by ghoul tribes & the carnal monsters of Ubbo-Sathla. This is where many human wizards come to venture & certain tribes of mutants come from the Burroughs/Bakshi realms. The ruins of this place change & twist with the sleep of men & night mares come here to feed on the lost souls of psychics who fall pray to the lure of the song of Ubbo-Sathla.
