Several years ago a huge earthquake revealed a crack in the ground that led to an ancient underground Dwarven city that has been a ghost town for hundreds of years and virtually untouched by adventurers or looters, creating a massive influx of explorers trying to make their fortunes in this place. Naturally, a little town slowly began to spring up, starting with a couple taverns and armorers looking to make a profit off the large population of adventurers. Over time, the place has now become a bustling city, with an almost "evil disneyland" vibe, with signs up to "test your meddle in the pit" and souvenirs and tours of the less dangerous parts, people selling Resurrection insurance, with the braver souls venturing deeper with the promise of still undiscovered parts of the pit.
In this town is our party. A ragtag group of adventurers who have set up shop here in what has come to be known as Finwad's Pit, aptly named after the bumbling gnome who first discovered the hole. Like most, you were all drawn to the promise of unexplored ruins and vast loads of loot and treasure that never seem to run dry. It seems every few weeks someone finds something of great value! As has become custom in the town, you must legally claim yourself as an adventuring guild (for taxes purposes and stuff). And thus, the League of Gentle Looking for Things in Holes came to be!
