That thought had occurred to me as well.  I mean once the cat is out of the bag on something like that it's not going to be a secret any more.  If even one Toranite knew where it was it would be posted in every temple as a primary focus of surveilance.  So I guess the question is whether or not anyone on the good side has come to the knowledge of the temple via whatever method and has spread the word.  If that has ever happened in the past then things are very different.  I thinking that a permanent temple of a god like Corath is only possible in an evil kingdom.  Any kingdom that has effective law enforcement is eventually going to discover such a base of operations unless there is some special god protection or something keeping it from being discovered.  Intersting discussion.  :)

And that's just the thing.  The Corathites who built it went through great lengths and expense to get the temple built in secrecy in the middle of what amounts to hostile territory.  The only reason most people know of its location is due to OOC information being portrayed in-game, specifically the label on the door.

--- Quote from: Acacea ---Thank you for this post! Very long in coming and agreed 100%, this temple is something that has been metagamed by player and GM alike from day one.  

There is a tiny handful of characters that have come by this knowledge in a different fashion and could pass it on, but have certainly never been inside and made it back out unless taken by one of the faith.

However, in the future (not that it matters now), simple notices OOC nearby would be nice to have in-game, just so people know even if they don't read one post amidst many others in the forums, etc.

Daralith and Bakee never told a soul... So Bakee said keep the witch away from her! =-)

Halfwit Genious:
Just some thoughts. In the case that the temple is known only to followers and a select few other individuals one would think that followers that renounced the faith would be hunted to avoid the revealing of it's location... anyone who knows for that matter. I think it'd be cool to have skeletons attack at random those characters that do know :) or other cool undead creatures. Just a thought... it's kinda a catch 22. If the people that do know live to spread the word everyone would know, much like everyone knows there are bad creatures on Belinara even if they havn't been there because others have spread that around. On the other hand if the ones that know are openly hunted then suspisions will be raised. Again just my thoughts.

Pen N Popper:
Perhaps make the entrance to it be a magical bush like in that place on central.  Only true exploring in corners of the world would discover it.

@Dorg, my post came to me based on the above statement. If anyone of those tiny handful of characters is of "good" alignment or counts themselves on the side of good in good vs evil then the cat should be out of the bag. If not then they have done a great job in keeping the temple secret.

As a note: one of them should make a new PC named "You never found this door". Then make that PC the owner and lock it and give out keys.
