d100 megalith sites - remains of the old ways

After the age of inhuman monsters prehistoric humans began to build own cultures, use magic and commune with the gods. For and age men used only stone for weapons and erected great stone monoliths across the land. Many of these are now hidden in woods, in end of farmers fields or vallage commons. Some are even in graveyards predating everything else. Even in Shadelport small megalithic structures in tiny graveyards are in city blocks or even in streets.

Most people leave them alone knowing they are cursed or entrap evil beings. The prehistoric wonder workers bound many horrors in these places. Remains of flints and other items are often found but miraculous stone daggers and swords are found occasionally.

There are remains of whole stone cities in mountains by glaciers with stone buildings from this time. Stone towers of prehistoric wizards still are inside the walls of the city with notices from officials forbidding entry. Some dont have doors. Some were not carved but moulded by magic.

Some structures originated as houses and became ancestral shrines or temples later. As the dead were buried under houses then, when descendants moved they would visit old places in ritual proscetions over the countryside.

The necromancer kings seized most of the world for a thousand years ending the age of stone. Stone buildings in this area were to glorify the evil wizard kings who preferred zombie labourers. They were in turn ended by barbarian with metal.

Some megaliths are even prehuman such as beast men or demihuman.

Many would find earlier peoples remains, steal their grave goods and use in own leaving mix-match of relics.

After barbarians cleansed the world in fire and blood, civilized men with clay brick cities appeared

Documenting, exploring and cleansing these structures could be a quest
First table to help create own sites on fly, later d100 one with specific locations that could be placed or found. Will do d100 Stone Age Relics table later.
