Re: Conceptual Balance Mod 1.5
They might spend lots of time huddled around geothermal outlets.
I thought it was fairly warm deep underground, not chilly. I'm no expert though.

I was just in caves two weeks ago that had ice all summer while the temperature above ground was 90+ (Deg F).
Here's a decent link on the subject: http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/env99/env223.htm
Note that since many or most areas have seasonal temperature fluctuations, average temperature can be pretty chilly. In most of the US we're talking <=55 deg F.
(As you get deeper, cave temperature becomes more dependent on geothermal heat and less dependent on surface heating - which could lead to warmer or cooler caves depending on the area's average temperature. You have to go quite deep for geothermal to be 'quite warm' - deeper than any known natural caves and probably deeper than its possible to mine out tunnels.) |

Re: Conceptual Balance Mod 1.5
As you are getting even deeper in caves, you end up in groundwater eventually, before it could get to any hot. Removing cold blooded might be too much a boost, though.

Re: Conceptual Balance Mod 1.5
Oh, you people are just not living close enough to any volcanoes. You can cook eggs in some 5' deep caves in Japan.

Re: Conceptual Balance Mod 1.5
The Agarthan caves are filled with water, didn't you know? And it doesn't get pushed up to the surface because AWDI.
(1) Because they don't want to be near the seal when it breaks
(2) Have you looked at those fat-arsed Agarthan Oracles? They are lucky to have map move 2.
(3) Agartha will never win, because of teh PD.

Re: Conceptual Balance Mod 1.5
It's sort of silly bringing our geography into this anyway. Who is to say the world of dominions isn't flat and heated from the bottom by a giant burning space squirrel.

Re: Conceptual Balance Mod 1.5
Squirreloid informs me that my space squirrel 'proposal' is flawed; I just wanted to let people know before they cited it in their research.
