Bloodstone Fortress

Bloodstone Fortress

Bloodstone Fortress is an ancient black-brick citadel rising high above the lands of Vangrove, inhabited by the red-skinned High Orcs. Its towers pierce the clouds, while its foundations descend deep into the molten chasms of the world itself. From any point in the region, the fortress dominates the horizon — a symbol of conquest, endurance, and ancient orcish supremacy.

The main gate of the fortress is connected by a massive stone bridge, flanked on both sides by lower, open sections of the castle where patrols, war machinery, and guard platforms are stationed. Passing the gate does not lead upward, but downward — into the fortress’s true heart.

The interior is a nightmarish maze of corridors, shifting passages, hidden chambers, traps, and dead ends. Most routes descend immediately into the underground levels, from which every other section of the fortress can be reached. These depths stretch endlessly, layer after layer, until they merge with rivers of lava and volcanic caverns far below.
