** Requirements: Nwn 1.67 and all expansions (SoU, HoTU, and CEP 1.53) **
Amidst the myriad wild vistas of Limbo, there lies a realm known only as the Endless Chasm, wherein one might fall between the planes should they but lose their footing. Within this dangerous expanse, there lies a small island of relative stability upon which there was built, of old, a temple hewn from the rocky cliffs that dominate the surface of the isle. None know, to what deity the temple was dedicated! Yet, within it's confines an evil jewel is entwined within the branches of a blood-red tree and pulses with a bright life of it's own above the four heads of an idol to some forgotten goddess. Since long ages beyond counting, others have erected many a monument of their own near the temple, but all now lie abandoned with
the passing of the ages... their ruins left for adventurers to explore. Only a single name is known to sages who speak of this place, and it is this which so gives the ancient area it's much-feared name: Kali-Yuga. Kali-Yuga the Lost.
Contains an .erf for easy importing, and a demo module for exploration.

Thank you for this one. I love it and it nudged me with the reminder that there is a "z" component to placeables, which has greatly assisted in modeling some areas of my own. _________________________ I like the heart blood best.

This is a very fine piece of work. I am not sure that it fits into the mythos of my PW, but the techniques are amazing. You use CEP pieces in ways I never dreamed of, and the result here is spectacular.

Awesome. I'm going to spend some time figuring out how you made this one. I'm not familiar with all the CEP pieces. :)

Cool. _________________________ [size=3]Look at me. I'm special.[/size]
Firstly, the name Kali-Yuga comes from Indian/Hindu mythology and religion, in which it is a name for the "Final Days" before the coming of the 10th. and last incarnation of Vishnu, the god of light who is the Indian/Hindu Messiah. That's where Soul Calibur got the name from, too. While many people are intimately familiar with that game, few can say the same about Indian/Hindu myths and legends. (Since the temple in my prefab was inspired in part by the lost cities in the jungles of ancient India it made sense to choose this name for it. Also, I had envisioned the goddess who once was worshipped in the temple as being the Indian/Hindu goddess Kali, who is said to be the presiding goddess over the "Final Days" and was symbolic of both passionate love and death.) Now, on to point of order number two: thanks again for the good vote and for a fine post, Laughing One, and yes I thought up the background story for this prefab myself, although I so opted to base in D&D's Plane of Limbo since it seemed a unique idea that would make Kali-Yuga a truly lost temple indeed. Glad you like!

Once again, very nice! Good, creative tile choice to make a placeable "temple." I like the background story that goes with it. Is it original?
Keep 'em coming, Chaos!
