A mysterious tunnel~
Runes glow a dull blue on the walls, but they don't appear to be a

warding or instructions.  Instead, they appear to be a natural part to

this rather unnatural place.  Electricity buzzes through the air,

creating a dull hum that shakes your bones.  Perhaps whoever built these

tunnels did not intend for mortals to walk down them.  Perhaps they did

not notice the rampant forces of magic crackling down the tunnel.

~
[Merior] extras? how can runes be natural?

means they appear in place, not out of place, here

[Bandolin] should the runes have an extra descript?  (I know you don't

like them, but I couldn't find anything else wrong to complain about.

A mysterious tunnel~
Gigantic doors of mirror-like black obsidian rise mightily to the east

and west, impossible to open.  A small alcove brimming with electricity

is set in the stone to the north, and to the south, a dark tunnel

stretches away.

~
[Bandolin] personally, the doors seem to need an extra desc.  (IMHO)

[Bandolin] The room says they are black doors, but the aedit 1 says it is

an obsidian gate.

A small alcove~
Runes cover the north wall, flowing in and out of a set of handprints

inset in the stone.  The hum of electricity flows over the wall like a

waterfall, an impenetrable protective field.  A small black lever is set

like a switch in the west wall, and to the south a dark tunnel disappears

into inky black.

~
[Merior] need extras

[Merior] electric field on north wall?

[Bandolin] should "hands" be a command?  because with it, "hands hands"

works 

[Bandolin] i'm new, so forgive me if i'm wrong, but result "rzap" looks

like it has an extra blank line at the end of it.

A tunnel of shifting sand~
The hard obsidian rock has begun to give way to the soft gritty texture

of desert sand.  Your footing is soft, but not unsure, as if somewhere

beneath the sands firm ground anchors all safely in place.  The tunnel

leads east, and a massive door of mirror-like obsidian rises to the west. 

A small grey lever is inset in the wall to the west.

~
rextra on lever/door/sand

[Merior] extras needed

[Bandolin] you could use a comma after sands on line 3.

You could probably take the one out after soft on line 2.

calls them doors.

A tunnel of red heat~
You are standing in a tunnel of red, hot rock.  Waves of heat from an

unknown source to the west wash over you in full force.  To the east is a

large slab of mirror-like obsidian which acts as a gate to block any

passage.  A second look to the west makes the walls themselves to appear

like they are no longer made of rock, but of pure fire.  A small gray

lever is inset in the east wall.

A room of shifting sand~
This small chamber swirls and changes before your eyes as mounds of sand

move all about, seemingly alive.  The sand is endless, reaching into the

heart of the earth with its depth, threatening to swallow you whole. 

Tunnels escape the chamber to the north and west.

sand getting in their clothes or something.

A tunnel of shifting sand~
The walls of this tunnel waver slightly, but appear to be stable enough. 

The circumstances are different to the south, where the violent motions

of the rock threaten to swallow any adventurer that enters that tunnel. 

To the west, a tunnel of solid obsidian leads away from the mysterious

sands to unknown darkness.

sand that moves, and b) from the desc, walls that are malleable

A mysterious tunnel~
While the tunnel running east and west is a mighty one indeed, the

rune-streaked obsidian passage to the north is obviously the main one. 

The tunnels show no physical signs of passage; the rock beneath your feet

shows no wear, nothing litters the ground in any direction.  It is as if

the inhabitants of this tunnel do not require the base physical mode of

transportation to which you may be accustomed.

~

were not enough, that a magical barrier was necessary to protect their

creation.  The rune-covered hall continues to the north and south.

builder, as long as they don't get out of hand. - Amon

A room of swirling wind~
The room about you swirls in a frenzy of wind, whipping you about like a

discarded rag doll.  A mighty tornado howls in your ears, and hurls bits

of sand into your eyes as well.  Tunnels of swirling air lead north and

east.

~

A tunnel of swirling wind~
The world about you spins and whirls as winds as strong as the Great

Winds that shaped the world, hold you easily aloft amidst a sea of clouds

and mist.  A wind storm rages in full force to the south, and to the

north, the winds seem to die down somewhat.

~
[Bandolin] sorry, nothing wrong here.

[Bandolin] Unless you really want to be nit-picky, in which case, this

room only has 2 sentences.  It wouldn't hurt to get a 3rd...

A tunnel of swirling wind~
Misty winds blow easily by, caressing your cheek with the cool touch of

an ocean breeze.  Desert winds form a path upon which to walk, whether it

leads to the firm rock to the east or into a tunnel filled with swirling

winds to the south.

~
[Merior] winds form a path?

[Bandolin] the raw impression i get is that there are several types of

winds here, one of which holds you up in this spot.  But the seperation

between the misty wind and desert wind is vague.

A mysterious tunnel~
Cold, hard, lifeless obsidian surrounds you with its impenetrable

embrace, as black as the shadow itself making you unsure where the rock

ends.  The shadows begin to form a tunnel leading to the east.  A path

that seems to lead onto air itself stretches to the west.

~
The shadow thing confuses me a bit - amon

[Bandolin] Is there a light source that is allowing the shadows here? 

And are the shadows the actual walls to the east?

A mysterious tunnel~
A tunnel leading to the north intersects the east-west tunnel of obsidian. 

While the tunnels to the east and west seem somewhat unremarkable, to the

north the black walls are streaked with ancient runes, perhaps of warding.

~
why do you say "perhaps of warding" here when you said at the 1st room,

that the runes and such weren't wardings or instructions

^^ I would leave it, but she has a point, in that first room, the purpose

of the runes is confusing sorta.

  

also, add another sentence or two, possibly state what they see to the

east and west 

^^ don't agree. 3 is fine in an unimportant filler room.

[merior] why do you think they are warding?

[Bandolin] i'd recommend an extra desc for the runes

A mysterious tunnel~
A tunnel of black obsidian gapes open to the west, its features

undiscernable.  To the east, powerful currents overtake the rock, forming

a world of their own amidst ice and thrashing waves.

~
Change 'currents' to 'forces'?

You can't see waves from here i don't think. Maybe "ice and water"?

change "features" to "details"?

[Merior] overtake what rock? the obsidian?

A tunnel of raging ocean~
The water beneath you has frozen into a stable platform of ice, but

beneath that outer layer, you can feel powerful forces flowing.  The

water to the south is flowing strongly as if the walls are made of

nothing but rushing water.  To the west can be seen a tunnel of hard

black obsidian.

Water sleets down and all around carried upon a fierce autumn breeze,

whipping your face and body with sheets of icy cold wetness.  You are

unsure of the dimensions of this place, but you can see a raging inferno

of a storm, unleashed in all its fury to the south.  While north the

water becomes ice.

A place of raging ocean~
This room, if it can be named as such, is a raging inferno of ocean

waves, rain, and whirlpool.  All semblance of earth has disappeared,

replaced by the torrent of water before you.  The sound alone is

deafening, that of one hundred hundred waterfalls, and the smell is of

the open sea during a fierce storm.  Tunnels of more stable water lead

north and south.

[Merior] did the ice guy belong here or further up where it is colder?

Before the Wizard-Gate~
The mysterious tunnels have come to a massive gate of inscribed obsidian

located directly in front of you.  Strange sounds, similar to chanting

can be heard faintly from beyond, but it seems the sounds are conducting

through the tunnel walls rather than passing the mass of the gate.  A

dark tunnel leads back away south.

~
MOST RECENT NOTE :: gate is CLOSED. No area beyond as yet.

 

give gate more mpcode, check standard

another rbug in room north of here

...'gate' also needs to be in keywords for the door.


There were a lot of rbugs here, so i just did a lot of it.  So if i

errored, come to me.  - Amon 

BTW, I think a lot of these mobs are pretty wimpy.  And when you do

marmor, put those numbers up on a par with the players that will be

comming through here.  Ppl comming here will have mith, if not adamtite. 

I changed the door's marmor a little.

[merior] do you have to enter via the tunnel to the south?

[merior] sounds are conducting? conducted?

[merior] obviously didnt go north... let me know when/if i need to
