This area is made up of 8-10 sqaures with nothing but vampire bats. I have did /read and /examine on all square and for the exception of the first square there is nothing. I have also tried to go in all directions not listed.
If this area isn`t to be connected to any of the new areas in the game might I suggest something simple. Say a chest. The chest would/could contain random item/gold or both. Posion now makes you drop your gold. Could the gold dropped now be stored in the chest? Say a bandit walks by sees it and then takes it to his chest hidden deep in the Illuminated Tunnel.
I'd also suggest that the key be found in a totally unrelated area thus encouraging folks to get out and explore more of the game.

Try looking at the descriptions more closely and you'll get a hint of what is to come. Your suggestion seems odd. Don't know how to take it. It would be hard to randomize it because you would have to create a random table for the chest (must be a new element programmed in). Also, what key do you speak of?

I think he means the key to open the chest. Maybe a Dungeon Key, or something of the such..

I have read all the discriptions and they do imply that something might be in the works to connect it with another area populated or once controled by elves or something. Hence the reason I stated that in the event that it wasn`t to be connected to an area in the future that they might concider putting something in that area because as it stands right now it's just taking up space. I mentioned the chest keeping in line with the current theme of that area and the fact that it was populated by bandits who in various stories I have read tended to hide things in chests.
I just tossed out the idea of a key to open the chest being found in an unrelated area to make it a lil harder for folks to get. They'd have to seek out the key then find the area that it worked in. This encouraging players to get out of the towns and see a lil more of the game.
The idea of placing the gold found in the forest as a result of players dieing from posion might be far fetched, but sounded good at the time and still is kinda interesting when I think about it. One reason is because unlike all other chest/bosses you would never know what you where getting. You might walk up and snatch 10K that some sorry soul died with or ya might get a big fat goose egg.
In regards to being specific about the key. First thing that comes to mind is say a Golden Key.
Golden Key:After melting down their precious gold the Bandits casted them into Golden Keys. It is believed that these keys where used to lock away their valueables that are hidden away from would be thieves.
Don`t rag me for the item discription. I just play this game not write for it....lol

A chest could be a good idea to tool around a bit of fun. Considering the Chest is empty at any given time, a staffer could chuck a lil something in there considering how generous they feel (Within reason of course). So at times there may be absolutely nothing there, when at other times there may be a million rabbit furs, or 10k gold, or a ful inv of healing potions. Basically what goes into the chest and when, is in accordance with the discretion of staff.
