Heroes of the Borderlands, Part 4


4. Each faction within the Caves of Chaos would also have gardens or farms providing them with food.  Without gardens and farms to provide them with food, players that capture wagons or boats filled with food and other supplies intended for the Caves of Chaos would weaken the ability of the Chaos soldiers to fight the player characters.

Near the Caves of Chaos, plants and the food and drugs such as marijuana grown by the plants are poisoned by the evil energy of Chaos.  This Chaos poisoned food and drugs is so addicting that this food and drugs draws the inhabitants here and then their addictions keep them here.  Without these Chaos poisoned food and drugs, there is no convincing reason for the majority of the cave’s inhabitants to remain in the caves.  For all I know, Chaos has no national dental plan for their Chaos soldiers.  Therefore, the Chaos soldiers will leave these caves to seek better lives for themselves and their families elsewhere.

We read that the poison of Chaos unnaturally twists or kills any plants growing in the deep ravine.  This is one way to turn this background information into something that has an important impact on game play.
