So I'm getting ready to run a one shot campaign that I hope to make into a 3 part, or more. I've got some of the stuff down, but I'm running into an issue with some of the locations and stat blocks.
Campaign setting is basically a small party of evil PC's have been tasked by Garyon to infiltrate Nirvana and place "The Great Lie" in the heart of Eritrice's domain. I've expanded on her lore so that she's secretly and unknowingly a rogue avatar of Garyon, possessing a sizable chunk of his power, and he wants to reclaim it now that he's aware of it. To do this, he has the PC's plant the great lie, which is in the form of a black rose, in her Garden of Truth.
Problem is there's very little information on most of the sub area's in Elysium and Nirvana, and I want to give some life to the zone. I'm avoiding the whole "bust down the wall and slaughter the villagers" stereotype but I want the party to have opportunities to commit acts that will please Garyon. I've got an alarm level system built for it, where each act they do can gain favor with the arch devil, lose favor if they fail, and raise the level of awareness that the denizens of the planes have. To make this work though, I really need some more information on the areas within the zone. I've been drawing most of my info from Inner Sea God's, Chronicles of the Righteous and Pathfinder Chronicles: The Great Beyond, but you'd be surprised at how little there is.
Can anyone give me some details on any of the locations on the map in Elysium/Nirvana, or just the ones listed on the wiki? I've got a few months before I want to run it.

Put this in the ‘Ask Todd Stewart’ Thread. He authored ‘Great Beyond’ and is more likely than Jacobs to give something other than, ‘We left it open for DMs to detail; have fun doing what you want.’
Of course, I’d still put it in the ‘Ask James Jacobs’ Thread, too; he could give an anecdote or some details not yet published.
But if Todd Stewart has eighty or a hundred thousand words of material that didn’t manage to get published in ‘Great Beyond’ regarding Elysium/ Nirvana, he’ll share it with you.

I'll say that I'm unlikely to post material that was submitted to Paizo but cut during development. Content that I wrote but never submitted in a draft manuscript, or just stuff from my own home game is a different story, with the obvious understanding that nothing I say is canonical unless it's in print.
Post the question on my ask thread and I'll take a look :)
