Some map updates and the text. If no feedback by Tuesday of next week, I'll submit for the Atlas.

Not The Twin Dungeon

Former home of a guy who got tired of people who kept claiming he was a twin. His siblings didn't look like him at all. Yet townsfolk kept saying it. So one day he left and build part of this dungeon to get away from them.

Rooms are 10 feet high walls unless otherwise stated.

Monster placement is up to the referee.

The rooms and stairs could be cutaway so you can see the room interiors, or there might not be any walls for the rooms or the stairs other than what is mapped. Your decision.

1) one entrance. Water flowing form the side, helps keep the lake below filled.

A pile of skeletons blocks the only path that isn't slippery. Look like kobolds or orcs. He Who was Not A Twin must have needed to defend the place a few times.

2) A pile of rocks and 4 stalagmites block access to as chest. How a chest be this close to the entrance and not be opened and whatever is in it stolen ?

Wide steps lead downwards to room 5. A stone door has to be opened for the other stairs down to room 3.

3) A pile of rocks. Did they just move ? Five stalagmites block the path to a broken wood door down to room 7. Stone door leads down to room 4.

4) chest and a large open pit. Does the pit drop characters down to room 4B ? Or not ? Could it be an illusion ?

5) Two bookshelves, mostly empty. Two chests. A cage. Two open pit traps. Two piles of rock, with another pile stacked in front of the wooden door. Moving the third pile in front of the door causes the door to scream softly. Open stairs, no rails nor walls, leads down to room 6. A wooden door leads down to some wobbly wood stairs and touches the stairs between room 3 and room 7. These wooden stairs may or may not be connected to anything.

6 ) A wood table with a small wood box on it. Three piles of bones. One of the piles squeaks when touched or moved. Four piles of rocks. A big open pit.

No obvious levers to get the portcullis out of the path.

The wood stairs up to the top of the wall piece radiate magic. Nothing there.

Stone door leads to stairs down to room 21.

24 ) An evil temple at location 24. A coffin, a knight's burial. The doorway has the ability to block Good from entering.

30 ) A small stone area and walkway. The path leads up to room 29. The other to room 24.

I decided to move the room numbers out of the rooms. Not a good idea to give the players an idea where their characters are located precisely.

Deep Dark, 900 pixel jpg.

Only had to move one room number slightly on this one.

Red Vadeli. At this scale, the island upper left is about 70 miles at its longest, the ruins and trees are markers for a village or a forest.

Big island on this map, upper left, is about 88 miles.

Here are a few more rooms and passageways.

area F ) two tables and chairs with food. Three extra chairs. Wood door from area E into this area. Open wall to area Z.

some of these bits will have more than one room and description.

area G ) room is partway up on the 25; high ridge, but no door to it. A torch lights the room up, a pile of rocks, and a pile of wood debris. A magic mouth, voice recording, of a voice under the wood that gives moaning sounds. Nothing under there.

passageway H ) partially blocked by wood debris, it gives a twisting path to area CC. If the characters listen carefully, they wil hear whispering, but no words.

( skipping the use of I. )

I'm posting closeups so you can see if I need to make changes.

area J ) a pile of rocks. A torch or lantern light can give the impression there are coins under the rocks.

area K ) 4 ogres with spears guarding a chest.

South door; reinforced wood

West door; reinforced wood

area L ) a room with a cow and a pile of rocks. The cow looks hungry. The room partially blocks the path to area M.

area M ) 6 giant ants !

North door and South door are reinforced wood.

The passageway that intrudes into this area from area BB doesn't have a secret door.

area Z ) Three beds and three carpets. Three shelves of books, some could be magical.A fireplace with two tables with food dishes. Seven chairs, and a chair at a writing table.

An ogre and two golems.

area AA ) Two doors at the north end. One secret, one open metal door.

See the elf house ? Nice friendly elves... But that isn't any elf language they are speaking.

area BB ) odd-shaped room.

upper left: two topiaries, that can come to life. And a well.

below the 'BB": two wooden tables, food plate on one.

upper right: large cracks in the floor. Could they become a sinkhole ?

lower left: wood spikes, look like they have been moved around several times. an old campfire to the left of the in use fireplace.

Three blue comfy chairs. Skulls to the right of the fireplace.

Two tables at the side side, with food plates.

Huge secret door to the west end.

area CC ) two rock piles.

If the characters look away, then back at them... the rocks will look like they might have moved. Have they moved ?

area DD ) A passageway/room. Huge doors, two skeletons on the west side, one skeleton on the east side.

Moving the skeletons on the west side, the double doors open.

Moving the skeleton on the east side, opens the secret door into area BB.

I've been thinking. ( Uh oh ! )

Anyway, I'm a terrible artist, but I might be able to sketch something for this dragon dungeon. I mean, what the characters would see by torchlight.

Why am I posting this ? To encounrage myself to make the attempt. No idea what I'll do... we shall see.

And here are the first 14 maps of the new Dwarf Home. I already had some done.

1) No room descriptions.

2) Some of the maps need work on the doors, contents, and text.

Brillar, Dank forest's capital.

center of the city, old map.

Newer map of the city.

While the second one is still using older symbols, I'm more working on changing out the CC2Pro symbols for CC3+ ones.

I think I made this too small, 50 feet by 30 feet.

Here is the water feature. Hmmm... I must be channeling Ground Force from BBC America from long ago.
