Kraaz'Duun
A Svirfneblin stronghold carved into the shimmering caverns far beneath what was once Manira.
A part of The Fractured Isles
Kraaz’Duun is a Svirfneblin stronghold carved into the shimmering caverns far beneath what was once Manira. Its people lived their lives among crystal-lit halls, winding tunnels, and the ever-present chorus of murmuring stone. Most deep gnomes felt an unbreakable bond with the deep places of the world, trusting in shadow, silence, and ancient earth-magic.
When the Fracturing of Manira split the earth, it tore open a jagged crevasse in the heart of Kraaz’Duun, plunging upward toward the surface. Through that wound a column of true, golden sunlight poured down into the stronghold. The people of Kraaz’Duun recoiled, fearful of the unknown radiance — all but the young outlier Rollo, who stepped forward into it and climbed up into the light.
