The Lost City of Amdapor

Next time you go into Amdapor, take another long look at the Mold Colony after you kill it. Flaccid horse penises? :O

Or because they were junkies.

I've only run it as a tank so far, so I get to stop and do that whenever I want :P

Love the dungeon. Great for when you want to run something to run it, take your time and just enjoy the run.

have to take some Allegra or Claritin before I run it again.. ;)

I don't know what to say to this...

Agreed, Amdapor is an awesome dungeon. The other 2 were kinda lame.

The lore of the Amdaporii civilization is tied to White Magic if I remember correctly. The Amdaporii where unrivaled in terms or raw power, and they continued to seek more and more of it. White Magic is what makes the Padjal immortal, so you can see how tempting it would be to be able to wield such massive amounts of it that you'd get the same benefit. In the end, their thirst for power ended up destroying them. Overuse of White Magic caused the 6th Umbral Era, and was subsequently outlawed once people realized how dangerous it was. The only exception made was for the Padjal, who were allowed to use it by virtue of the Elementals.
