This is a somewhat explanatory text file for the map gif's in this
directory.  As I don't have lots of time to spend slaving away at
photoshop, not all of the maps will have text with them.  If you have
any questions about any of the pics (problems too) you can contact me
via email at brandon@cc.usu.edu.

Angul.gif  -- This is a nifty that I threw in, scanned from the players
     manual.  It is a cool looking picture of an Angul.

Crossroads.gif  -- a really zoomed view of the crossroads in the
     merchantile district.  May be reversed (for some odd reason).

Paradise.gif  -- this is a quick sketch of mine, of the main islands to
     paradise city.  Since the handwriting is virtually illegible, I
     will explain each island, from the top, moving from the left to the
     right:


	1- nothing special, silt formations.
	2- the Grind: This is where the government holds most of its
           buildings, as well as housing its sea fleet.  The river
           between the Grind and the Main island is virtually blocked
           off with chains, and pile driven logs, so that ships have
           to pass through the Merchantile District's Harbors.
        3- the seperator line is missing, but there is a large canal
           between the Grind and Vican's Isle.  Vican's Isle houses
           a few more government buildings, and is similar to High Lands
           North, in that it is an extremely extravagant part of town.
        4- Highlands North, this is on the mainland next to Vican's Isle
        5- next row=> nothing, just another silt formation.
        6- the Main Island.  This is the largest land formation and is
           home to the main part of paradise city:
               Northwest part- the Harbor District, still being walled
                  in this contains the new harbor (west harbor).
               Northeast part- Merchantile District, contains the old
                  harbor (east harbor) and the Rainbow Market.
               Southern tip- Lowtown, this part of paradise is so deadly
                  and overrun by less than lawful guilds, that the
                  militia will not enter it.
               Everything else- is basically considered City Center.
	7- The land to the right of the Main island is called Mud City,
           as nearly all of it is built on sand/silt, and it is
	   constantly sinking, so much so that buildings are just built
           upon buildings.  It is often thought of as an extension of
           Lowtown, except for that the militia WILL enter Mud City
	8- to the south, off the map is Rancor, a cemetary with the 
           tower of an ancient necromancer king in it.  It is also
           filled with undead.  When the energy of the Shadow Dark
           fills the land undead walk through the cemetary, held in
           only by the spirit of a long dead Steward once buried there.

ParadiseZoom1.gif  -- This is a slightly closer view of the main island
     and the Grind. 
MerchantileZ1.gif  -- this is a zoom up of the part of the Merchantile
     district already programmed into DarkurtheMOO(sorta).
Silvers1-3.gif  -- these gifs are of the three levels of Silvers (tavern).
Crossroads.gif  -- a zoomed up view of the crossroads, outside of Silvers.
Contintent.gif  -- a scan of the map which is in the players manual, of
     the continent of Darkurthe.
DLmancover.gif  -- another nifty, a quick scan of the manual cover.
