That sounds really cool! Are you designing it all from scratch?

Ive had a lot of help lol. Kobold Press' Midgard setting had a few new Derro monsters (Fetal Savant and Dogmoles) and Pathfinder's Golarion setting has a lot of good Derro lore to work with. The most time consuming part is gonna be building all the Derro npc stats and balancing all the encounters. Pathfinder's Derros are also the closest to what their actually based on, which was a fascinating rabbit hole. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Sharpe_Shaver

That was a very interesting read, thanks for sharing! I play d&d 5e myself, but I had no idea what the origin on the Duergar and all the psionic creatures dwelling in the Underdark was.. Really cool to find out, thanks!

Its one of those stories you read about and wonder why it hasnt been made into a movie. A down on his luck writer finds this schizophrenic guy who wrote this absolutely bizarre piece on his journey to an underground civilization. So the writer takes it, spruces it up, and publishes a really popular science fiction story. You could make it about the ethics of this writer using the paranoid delusions of this poor man to create award winning books. Like Rainman but for science fiction.
