| - The Undercity is the capital city of Forsaken (Undead). It is in Tirisfal Glades, in northern Eastern Kingdoms. It was formerly known as Lordaeron, a human city, and some still refer to it as that. It fell to the Scourge and was retaken by the Forsaken. It is linked via transportation orb to Silvermoon City. The only other route between the two involves passing through high level areas on foot.
- The Undercity is located physically below the Xaquang Skyway. Area Name: The Undercity Region: Kaineng City
- The Undercity was an underground HPAC board in 209 during the mid-90s. It was a member of Prophecy, ShadowNet, CCi Net, DeadNet, AAA Net, DNA Net, and Non Net and a distro site for the groups BGR, DiE, HCH, MiS, HiT, and LoC. Local callers were usually denied access, while long-distance and international callers provided the bulk of the 5000+ files available. The sysop, Korrupt, ran an ezine called RoT and had archived over 1500 viruses and codes.
- The Undercity is an ongoing fantasy MSPA Forum Adventure (a comic unrelated to MS Paint Adventures but maintaining the same "faux adventure game" format, hosted on the MS Paint Adventures forums), written and drawn by forums user Crumplepunch. This fantasy story features quite a lot of characters in both controllable and supporting roles, many of whom are contributing to or particpating in what is shaping up to be an sizable Gambit Pileup. To make matters more confusing, the story unfolds seemingly at random throughout multiple time periods at the behest of a Lemony Narrator with ADD.

When I first started I was getting BlueBox calls from Holland, and it just went from there. This was ran off of a 16mhz/286 with a 2400 baud modem and 20meg HD at first. The upgrade to a 386 and 14.4k modem was huge. Ran out of my parents house, unknown to them. Still have it all on floppy backup somewhere, pre-internet was a wild-west.
