Several members of Starfall were part of [[texas]] prior to joining Starfall. The Orodruin Caldera was chosen by 5Gigi as location for a settlement for its unique geographic characteristics. The first building, a docking tower for small ships, was completed on August 28th. From there, more buildings were made inside the volcano. The first weeks of the settlement's founding were its most active, with up to 12 active players at a time.
