Einco Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Some years back (maybe 10) there was a RuneQuest adventure on the internets available about ruined dwarven fortress. Fan made I suppose. I think it was something called "Harajallenburg the walking fort". Or something similiar. I'd love to read that a again but can't find it anymore. Tried googling different spellings of the name but cant find it. Cant remember the name of the site or author. I was wondering if someone here could help me find this gem. Maybe some one has it saved? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metcalph Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I dunno about the scenario but Harajallenburg is described in the Guide Quote Harajallenburg, the Walking Fort In the God Time the dwarves created many unusual structures of war. To fight the Red Men of Varsellintown they made an army of these monstrous things, of which only this one, in Genertela, is known to remain. Its inhabitants died long ago. Harajallenburg is a large castle, approximately 80 yards square, made of huge blocks of shaped stone. Its outer walls are 20 yards tall. It has stout round towers at each corner, a great keep in the center, and other fortifications typical of an elaborate castle. Eight legs, two per corner, carry the castle about the countryside. It normally rambles along at about 6 miles per day. It has been known to sprint as fast as a horse. Of unusual design is the entry, which is underneath the stone floor. To enter Harajallenburg through the gateway one must walk beneath it for about 100 feet, then ascend through a staircase into the outer courtyard. In the old days, the castle used to squat and crush unwanted intruders. The interior of the castle, unlike its outside, is elaborately decorated. Furthermore, its automatic machinery is still active so that its internal defenses, food making machines (if you call dwarf victuals food), and, most importantly, mechanical library, still function. No one permanently inhabits the castle. Visitors often go there. Various denizens sneak around, trying to find a safe place to live. On occasion outlaws or princes have taken up residence. But most often people go there, stay a while, and depart. Shamans have stated that ghosts exist in the castle, although their antecedents remain unclear. This may have something to do with the reason why most people leave. p643 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant really remember the exact spelling of the name. I wonder if it is still available in some dark wizards libarary? Or lost forever.
