So portals would be similar to The Pits. They would be randomized across the Misties, so there wouldn’t be a rush of players all digging to the same coordinates under Caradhras. The dimension would extend under all of the mountains, not just the mines, so it would include Gollum’s Lake. I assumed Gundabad and Mordor, but maybe a new faction would be cool. At the very least, all the other creatures down there will be hostile to everything. I like the idea of Durin’s folk invasions (rarely). With regards to waypoints, I was thinking something like Moria, Dwarrowdelf, Goblin-Town, etc (the current Goblin-Town waypoint would be removed and replaced with two waypoints in the overworld: Front Door and Back Porch). Durin’s Plate would be cool. I hadn’t thought much about it, but in the books Gandalf escapes by holding onto the balrog as he climbs a flight of stairs made by the dwarves. Orcs spawning when you mined mithril could be a good idea but it might be unrealistic.
