Room 5: A vast and open room with a large table in the center. The northern corridor is blocked by a locked door. There is a trapdoor leading to Room 6

Room 6: This room is a storehouse, although it seems to be close to empty at the moment. All that is left seems to be some preserved food, but it is hard to tell whether it is edible or not.

Sq. C4

Room 9: A large open area strewn with rocks. On one side is a steeply sloping tunnel leading down into the darkness, with a crumbling cable cart system for hauling once-rich ores from the mines below. Legends say you can still hear the ghosts of the dwarves singing about digging holes. On the other side, lava wells up from below into a pool and channel. A large lever, currently in the off position, is attached to a piece of wall.

Room 10: A huge machine, a mess of pipes and cogs. Its purpose was to drive the winding wheel, but the secrets of its operation and construction died along with its dwarven operators. It now rusts mostly silently in its room, occasionally briefly jerking the crankshaft of its own accord. What the machine needed lava for and where the lava now goes is long lost to time.

Getting to secret 2 is a bit easy from 9..

Every midday Amphisos casts an illusoy(touch + vision) wall on the empty corridor, blocking it from people noticing it from room 9. The spell weakens every sunrise and can be detected rather easily during the morning hours.

Make some of the rooms into a swastika like that one Legend of Zelda dungeon.

Room 13 - A large hall that has three branching off points to explore the western half of the dungeon, nearly every surface in this room is covered in some sort of grime, muck, dirt, blood, or ash caused by numerous fights that have broken out in here over the years, as no one has any desire to clean it up.

Room 13A - Hidden behind a rotating wall from the previous room are nearly a dozen cots with bedrolls upon them, leather sacks under each cot containing some sort of dried meat or ration. The denizens who call this room home "work" elsewhere in the dungeon.

13B - This room - heretofore left undiscovered until now - is a small watch station left behind by the original builders of the dungeon. A magicked porthole in the wall allows one-way viewing through it into Room 13. A dusty skeleton, humanoid in shape but with little else on it, lies slumped in a pile on top of some severely rotten wood, the remnants of a chair the poor soul was sitting in. A dusty tankard lies next to the pile, and an empty wine bottle atop a fragile - yet still standing - desk at the back of the room.

Has many sturdy wooden doors, most locks have been broken ages ago.

Rooms>

14: Shrine to some almost unrecognizable Dwarf God. Now throatily desecrated by elvish graffiti. Lawful Dwarves will have to roll vs hatred or suffer minor insanity.

15: Dwarves used to live here. Now only vermin. Roll d6 for each room: 6 is something interesting (minor treasure, abandoned gear, mementoes, friendly rats etc), 1 is a problem (vermins, ceiling collapses, cursed cheese etc).

16: Priest of r14 lived here. Now the room is used as a toilet by elf cultists.

17: Empty. Used to be dwarf reliquary. Contains small hideout only findable by priests of the same order. roll d6: on 4+ contains valuable material, otherwise only crumbling papers and a short sword.

18:There used to be a statue here, now its pieces are scattered around.

19: A guardroom by the looks of the empty weapon racks. Contains secret entrance to 4.

20: Dwarvish brewery. Smell of alcohol still is in the air. Next to this is a storage of empty beer and wine barrels. Searching the place might find d3 beer bottles or one whisky bottle. Skeletons of dead rats fill the storage.

21: Magnificent dining hall two stories high. Old chandeliers are infested with spider webs (spiders not present)

22: Small gathering room. Western wall contains an engraving of Dwarfs fighting daemonic elephantlike devils admist lava falls.

23: Kitchen. Still in working order, if one dares to operate the magma-heated oven.

B2 was once storagerooms, but after an magician hiding in room r1 miscasted a spell darker forces have taken hold of this area. Large black scorpions with glowing eyes would often like to feast on bypasses.

If one sleeps in this square their dreams will be horrible and potentially fatal.

Other half is the lair of the Elvish Cultists. What they actually are worshiping (from heavy metal to lovecraftian horrors) is up to the GM, but it should not be anything nice.

Rooms:
B2:1 was once an magicicians secret hideout. Now it is a burned out husk halfway fuzed into some kind of shadowy realm - and is the nest of the black scorpions. Usually unhabited, only 1in6 chance there is actually someone there.

Removing the halfportal to nether requires serious magic, either arcane or divine.

2 was once the living quarters of the poor mage. Now mostly in tatters with scattering of skeletons.

3 is the main altar room of the Elvish Cultists. The altar itself hurts the eyes of Good characters and inspires Evil characters.

4 is the spartan room of the High Cultist. Will contain loot and might contain the High Cultist, most likely angry. During nights, roll d6: on 6 he is in such deep meditation that does not care about loud noises unless someone (cultist or adventurer) physically pokes him.

5 is mostly the heavy ceremonial doors to 3. The Seremonial doors will be opened for only the greatest of events, such as sacrificing player characters. Usually there is someone guarding here.

6 is the sleeping area of the cultists. There is 4d6 in total.

7 is the armory of the cultists. Contains many curved, sharp and otherwise nasty weapons and few armours,

8 is general storage of the cultists. If they have any prisoners they shall be bound and thrown here.

9 is the cultists ritual room. Usually there is a teleporter to the wilderness beyond.

10 contains only a cold stone secret door to B1. It is opened with a password from B1 or a switch from B2. It can be also locked, which is most often is unless cultists are moving in the corridors.

11 was a mighty cavern, now collapsed. One might almost see some sunlight during bright days.

12 has some nasty insects hiding among the rocks. Their carapace is hard but valuable. They will not attack, unless provoked. They will help PCs against the scorpions, though. But do not let them eat a corpse of a scorpion.....

13 rooms are mostly empty. The Scorpions like them, and often torture their prisoners there. The remnants of the victims might be valuable.

A4 was once a mushroom garden for the miners, now it is home to a sentient mushroom colony. the colony mutated from the magic fuckary happening in this dungeon. it harness the magic to create powerful illusions, such as the titanic priest. it creates the illusions to draw in prey.

room 1- a big room that under the spell appears to be full with the preys greatest lust. (the priest in B4 will invite the party to room 1 to "show them something special")
if no one notices the illusion it will direct the party to the red ex and attack with 4 tentacles.

room 2 - this room contains the "heart" of the hive and all the treasure from other prey

side note: it appears that the hive is friendly with the elves .

E3 room 1 - is a secret wizard lab with an exit to

room 2- where a minor fire elemental guards the door and the herbs the wizard grows there. also this room is invisible from the cave, there is an illusion of a rock wall where the purple stuff are.
room 3 - is a small part of the cave overgrown with yellow mold and in the middle there is a chest seemingly untouched by it.

room 4 - is a ratman stronghold there are fortifications made out of scrap there. a guard or two are always present.

room 5 - is a cave partially covered with spider webs

room 6 is the spider room, the room is covered in web and a giant hostile spider hangs from the ceiling

i think the big rats and the ratman should be separate since one lives in the dungeon and the other in a cave, also they have different conflicts

>>68100789
The e1 e2 cavern door to the ratmen lair does not need to be a secret door, ordinary guarded chokepoint works as well. Ot that it is usually closed with rubbe but the ratmen will open it if attacked and evac their noncombatants that way?

Not everything needs to be connected, sometimes _not_ having routes is more interesting.

>>68105325
There is between 100 and 300 bullywags in that one square...

The giant Spider is the only thing keeping the bollywag infestation of E4 in check, for it likes to eat d3 of them each night. The bollywags in turn have began worshipping the Grat Hungru One (typoes intentional) and ritually sacrifice it one of their own / any captive every day at the stairway. The spider seems content with constant food supply and does not bother the ratmen at all. The ratmen are still terrified by the spider, not knowing that if it is killed they would be swarmed by bullywags.

The Manticore in e4 finds the bullywags insulting to its culinary sences and is therefore hungry all the time. It kills a bullywag only every 2d6 days, for bullywag is still better than starvation.

Amphisos has been known to hire the bullywags but currently is too focused in his studies.

Art is still meh...

A3 is ghoul suburbia. A bizarre copy of a terrestrian neighbourhood, where ghouls, skeletons and some other undead have established a society of sorts, with houses carved in rock and pretend gardens filled with rotting flowers and bones. The undead are not hostile at first, but will soon turn against any living visitor because they look delicious. The prefer the term "alternatively living" to "undead".

1- "Town hall", in fact just a natural grotto where the undead meet, and the "house"-less zombies stay.
2- House of Lady Mayor Gretchen. Gretchen is a ghoul priestess of Orcus, and she's very proud of her "little slice of undeath". She's keen on cooperating with the PCs as long as her little community isn't harmed, and will bargain for corpses against safe passage.
3- Pete's butcher shop. Pete is a frenzied ghoul who manages the suburbia's meat supplies. He employs mindless zombies who will scour the dungeon looking for corpses. Pete is always hostile to living PCs, and will attack them with two meat cleavers.
4-The park. Another meeting place for the undead, this "park" is full of fungi from the mushroom colony. Undead children play here.
5- Town square. Criminel undead are hanged there. Of course since they're already dead, they'll just complain atop their post until someone frees them. Freeing them might allow the pc some knowledge of the dungeon layout from a particularly grateful ghoul named Frank.
6- Little ghoul houses, all the same.

1 is a cavern with a grand and deep fissure, there used to be a bridge across, but it is currently out of order, a ghoul foreman and some workers are currently working on rebuilding the bridge, although most of the work is done by some zombies mindlessly hammering at the bridge, while the ghouls are supervising and shooting the shit.

2 is the house of Simon, a ghoul hermit, who spends his days tending to the garden in 3. If the roadwork in 1 becomes to loud he'll come by and complain about the noise.

3 is Simons garden and contains mushrooms with various exotic magical properties.

C5

1. stairs down to tunnel to A5. 3' deep old nasty water with maybe a lost pet electric eel.
2. Alcove with stone golem of dwarf in bronze platemail. Will not attack dwarves. When defeated the golem disappears and returns to its alcove and will not attack for 24 hours.
3. Priests quarters and small chapel. Walls are carved with dwarven holy texts and some of the history of the dungeon. Room is nearly empty, the bed and armoire are the only furniture left
4. Crossbow alley. A silver headed bolt magically shoots once a round from the south wall at a non dwarf anywhere in this passage. They can be collected. This trap can not be shut off.
5. Dwarven barracks. These rooms have been stripped of valuables, even the bunks have been hauled off to build the bridge in A2
6. Temple. 15 foot stone statue of a lion wearing bronze plate barding with a small stone altar before it. Dwarves can not bring themselves to desecrate it and will stop others who try. Non dwarves are struck with feeblemind and wander aimlessly off if they try.
7. Super vault and secret forge room. Only way in is to find the little bronze dwarf head (golfball sized) which might be carried by Simon the ghoul hermit. A dwarf holding the magic 'bobblehead' can walk through the wall and lead non dwarves with them. Inside is mostly empty but they left behind a fortune in iron ingots, and a dozen silver ones they missed when evacuating.

>Wizard master of Cats is Lord Lart von Klauffextor, a neutral evil wizard of a nearby Zibenheim tower. He is never present on the dungeon itself but has kept an eye on the place ever since the dwarfs became extinct.

His spies, the cats, are most interested in everything magical. The shadow-nest of B2 was caused by a former apprentice of von Klauffextor and this situation in particular he tries to keep in check. The cats are neutral to the undead suburb but are now searching the location of the elf cultists.

Relations between Von Klauffextor and Amphisos are determined by a roll of d6:
Enemies, friendly rivald, old friends, neutral, allies or not-yet-met are options.

Alright, D5.

Once the blacksmithing cavern that led into the barracks of d4. Blocked off by a magically soundproof door, when you open this door, what you see are rows of anvils, old and dusty. Ages have passed since last sparks struck off these hunks of cold metal. You can see what looks like tools that litter the ground amongst these

1. On the far side of the room, a large forge with 3 separate chutes stands tall, leading a large chimney that casts red light onto the ceiling, from what looks to be a still lit forge.

2. Cabinets that are carved into the rock itself. Upon inspection, 3 of the large cupboards contain 10 sets of Blacksmiths tools, Jewelers tools and Mason's tools. One of the cabinets, to the south, has seemingly been ripped open by something.

On the right side of the forge is a running lava waterfall, that seemingly falls into a small basin that sits at about waist height. The room is cordoned off by a huge hunk of rock that protrudes into the room.

4. I imagine a young red dragon has taken up residence, and is the cause of the large rip in the stonework. A small pile of coins and gems has been amassed, and she is asleep on them as you walk in. A wyrm sized hole has been dug out into the rock behind her, leading somewhere else.

A5 is an old dwarven evacuation tunnel, it's connected caves have flooded and thus area 1-3 are under 3' of water, though not as stale as the water in the secret passage.

1 is an old guard post, with some old dwarven weapons and a horn. Blowing the horn awakens the golem in C5-2 and it will visit the post to look for intruders.
The door is not hidden on this side.

2 is the lair of some cannibalistic frog folk, they don't speak common but are only semi hostile if you manage to communicate with them. They're looking for their lost pet eel and will reward any who find it with some pretty bone carvings.

3 is a rudimentary kitchen, though the water means the only food preparation here is chopping meat into smaller chunks. Some unidentified cuts of meat hang here.

4 is a reservoir filled 20' deep with water. It connects to a surface grotto a good distance to the southwest. A nearby human village have drilled a well hole reaching into the water here. Someone have thrown a very fine ring into the well and it lays at the bottom of the murky water.

E5:

An intelligent one arriving to room1 can recognize a silver statue of the Staring Matron, the guardian of dwarven commerce, behind a magma trench.

This betrays the original idea of this area: Storageroom for all the great items forged in D5.

However now the four great storage-halls (3-5) are filled with only the remnants of the great calamity that wiped out this location.

Room 3 has most well-crafted coffins with carved names. Yet still they mostly seem to be created in a hurry and are not polished well. Most are miners.

The two rooms of 4 contain more randomly placed coffins, now not much more than stone boxes. If one understands dwarvish runes, most of these dead are older and more experienced dwarfs, with few smiths, warriors and children. No reason of death is written. The rooms are only half-full. 5 is filled with dwarf corpses and body parts. They seem to be just thrown there with no much thought.

In total one can count approximately 120 dwarf corpses at least. The graves are undisturbed, for a hastily drawn rune-line protects the entrance. Any evil and/or undead creature crossing the charm takes 3d6 damage. There is four skeletons of persons just over the line: two bullywogs and two undead from the suburbia.>>68108961

Suburbian undead are most interested in the dwarf corpses here. The dragon does not care, it once got zapped by the runes and afterwards has not bothered.

Cont.

>>68114899

Room 6 is the official graveside of the dwarves. A small temple dedicated to their God of Death has been vandalized slightly by burn marks (If one manages to truly destroy the engravings here the protective lines will fade in d6 hours but must roll versus curse). The corridors left and right are protected by proper defensive rune-lines, which deal 6d6 damage to anyone stupid to cross them, usually leaving only ashes behind.

Rooms 7 contain proper shiny stone coffins in two levels. Total of 8 corpses is in each with the exception of eastest room, where is only 6. Most of these are miners, one cheesemaker and a mayor.

Room 8 is unfinished proper burial room. An surviving dwarf of the massacre lived there for a terrible long time, scribbling warning messages to the rocky wall. Sadly most of it is very, very messed up stuff but sufficiently insane one might understand it and give clues to how the dwarf outpost fell. There is also a long list of dwarvish names - some correlate to coffins. The decayed corpse of the survivor is still in one of the corners, hands eternally grasping a magical axe.

Oh and Room 2 is the grave of the founder of this outpost, Urist AMuthaFukingIdiot. He died under alcohol-related circumstances and is buried in a diamond coffin in a pool of lava. He was buried with his magical adamantium pick and a duplicate little bronze dwarf head.>>68110001 The entrance is hidden and one needs to push the right ear of the statue of the Staring Matron for it to open.

A1: This one is a deep underground grotto that crosses with the more constructed parts of the dungeon.
1-Giant luminescent mushrooms light the scene, allowing for fairly good vision of the very tall cave.
2-The recently abandonned encampment of some adventurers. No body can be found, but most of their equipment is still there. A good tracker could date their arrival and disappearance to only two or three days.
3-A big lake full of lurking tentacles that try and grab anyone who comes close. The tentacle's touch is slightly stingy, and they are, in fact, poisonous. Upon analysis, the tentacles bear some semblance to the idols of the elvish cultists >>68098668 , but too faint to draw any conclusion. The tentacles do not seem to belong to a singular entity; in fact a druid or ranger can discover that they are in truth plant mattern twisted into an animalistic shape. The PCs can discover that heat seems to keep them away. A dingy wooden boat can be found on the bank of the lake.
4-An overwater altar without a divinity. Treasure can be found stashed on it.
5-The lake and grotto taper into a passage to the next room, which the players can swim or row to.
6-A ground passage filled with treacherous stalactites. Small characters might find it easy to navigate, but tall ones will bump their head frequently.

B1

1: This room was seemingly a crypt, now flooded. It is guarded by 1d6+1 dwarf skeletons outfitted with iron boots that allow them to walk in the flooded areas without floating.

2: This room is similar to room 1, though holding 1d10+4 iron boot-clad skeletons, plus one wearing gilded plate with spellcasting as a 4th-level evil cleric.

3: This area of the crypt is walled off from the others, and is thus left unflooded. A determined adventurer with a pickaxe may be able to open a passage from here to rooms 1 or 4, but doing so will cause water from those chambers to rush in, along with any skeletons.

4: 1d6+1 iron boot skeletons. A staircase on the southern end of the room leads out of the water.

The players may notice that no sound can be heard if one's head is in the mouth, and if that same person speaks, those outside it cannot hear them.

C4 (dwarf mine access)
A2 (The great chasm)
E1 was supposed to have at least some?
E4 grand stairway might lead downwards, if we want the later levels to experience the clusterfuck as well...

Then there is magma channels in C4, D4, D5 and E5. Plalces below them will be interesting most likely.

>>68124545
Still idiotic. Why the dragon is there if there is no way in even???

Suggestion:

C1B contains a hideous aberration missummoned by the elf cultists. It is vaguely snakelike with powerful arms. It is hostile to everything and quietly starving after elves Commanded it there and locked the doors. Releasing should not be wise at all. No treasure there because why the fuck there should be? One can hear its ryhmical blargs if listens to the door.

C1C Nothing else than a hole in the ground, surrounded by crudely drawn dwaf head. Jumping into the mouth-hole leads to one floor down to unknown adventures.. (Yes it is a prank by the elf cultists)

C1A at least is interesting. Probably cursed dwarven weapons?

>>68124545
If this cliche dragon is the calamity, then that's a bit anti-climatic. I was thinking of a dwarves dug too deep story, and although they found adamantium, they also unearthed a great evil. They evacuated, and cultists moved in to worship it. The entrance to the beast should be walled off with the adamantium, forcing the NPCs to get Urists pick to break through, and to find out the history of this place along the way. The stairway should lead to the adamantium mines this creature came from.

This also works
>>68124637

This is/was a fun bit of fluff that has some neat ideas in it. but it not really playable in this extremely lolrandom condition. if one person were to go through and rework the map and especially the monsters, it might be playable.
I did 3 sections, you can change my stuff to make it make more sense.

OP here. Chaotic as it may be, I am super happy with how this turned out. If y'all want to keep adding to it, I can't stop you, of course. My vote is for adding another floor rather than more tiles.

I may work on redoing the map in a consistent art style so it's a little easier on the eyes.

>>68125786
Adding a new floor could be fun, but the map would probably need some stairs down added. At least i don't think there's any good way to proceed down.

If we want to add a sub-level then I think a new thread might be in order, since this one has largely run its course. We can start off with the same 5x5 grid but with E1, E4 and C4 (plus possibly A2 and E5) as access points.

Also I am arbitrarily declaring that the tunnel in B5 connects to the layer down below. Feel free to do the same for any other rooms if you need to.

B5 below - An unholy altar. South of it, the wall is covered in a large wall hanging depicting serpents and hiding a large double door.

South of that, a storage room and two apartments for the priests, connected by a hidden corridor.

East, a large crevasse has opened up, letting you fall down one floor further than this.

Lower Level

C1, C2 D1, D2 Dwarven Iron and Adamantium Mine

1. 40' ceiling. Iron rich stone makes mining difficult but profitable. The veins of Adamantium make it fabulous! Huge mine carts were pulled up to the first level on the tracks.
2. Tool room and bar. 1 in 6 of finding a decent tool, all alcohol is gone
3. Depleted Adamantium vein. Still glittery though.
4. Mine boss's room. Looted long ago, but ghost of the mine boss is still there and does not like non dwarves.
5. Tiny 3 foot by 3 foot passageway, probably carved by kobolds or other rodents.

D1 and D2:
Anons can adopt them if they wish to add more details, passages and rooms. Keep in mind that the stone in this area is extra hard to mine and it is easier to go around it.

B4 contains storage rooms and some bunks for B5. The water has also seeped in here.

1 is lined with 4 sarcofagi along the walls, containing a mummy each, ready to attack if they discover intruders, however the water has rotted their lower body and they crawl around on the submerged floor instead of walking if they leave their sarcofagi.

2 and 3 contain bunk beds and some chest for personal belongings stacked up, anything below the waterline here is mostly rotted away but 3 of the chests above the water contain extravagant and well made robes.

4 is a storage room containing empty clay pots and different tools.

5 is filled with sealed clay pots stacked to the ceiling, except a small winding path to the door on the other side. Inside the jar are mummified but still very alive and angry snakes. Knocking over a stack of jars means 3d6 pots containing undead hostile snakes shatter.

I'd forget about the water in the top-floor B5 escape tunnel - atmospheric, but we needed a path down somewhere and oh look - C5 already had a stair down to below B5. That doesn't prevent A5-2 and A5-3 from still being filled with ankle-high stale water, and will give the players a wet surprise if they open the secret door in A5-1

Alternatively, maybe there *is* ankle-deep water in the B5 tunnel but it disappears into the crevass so it doesn't fill up the entire underground.

(If so, the very first thing in B4 should probably be a stair up, just so the water doesn't flow north.)

Underneath the black lake is a lair undisturbed.

1. A wall here can be knocked down to reveal a hidden passage. This can be ascertained by the bricks being a slightly different colour and quality than the ones around them.

2. A large Stone golem with a head similar to the one here >>68134706 lies still in the middle of the room. The plant tentacles from the room above all converge into a large rooted Mass in the far corner of the room. When the PCs enter, the golem wakes up, revealing to the party that it is controlled by plant tentacles like a puppet by the thing in the corner. The golem itself is indestructible, but if the adventurers get to either the root Mass and destroy it, or cut the tentacles attached to the golem, they can defeat the mini boss.

3. In the center of the roots, a large key can be found, use this to unlock the southern barred gate.

4. A small dark corridor leads south, with a hidden blade mechanism (like the one in Indiana Jones 3) ready to kill Intruders.

2-B2 !

This is a continuation of the Dwarven Mines. It has been mostly accessed from 2-C2 (the door has been broken long time) and secondarily from the storages of B1.

The eastern part is one of the earliest parts of the mines and shows signs of many, many years of use. However it was converted into a workshop to use the material of the mines here directly (metals were taken to 1-D5)

2-B2-1 are two jewelry workshops. Many kinds of precious stones were cut here and there is still some shiny fragments scattered around the floor. No tools etc remaining.

2-B2-2 is a super amazing masons workshop. A master stonecarver worked here, bending stone to his will. All furniture are made out of beautifully carved stone worthy of a king and all weight more than a ton. Dwarf PCs are inspired by the stonecarving quality here. Tools and anything easily removed are long gone.

2-B2-3 is a soundproof room with two soft beds. It was made for the craftsdwarves to sleep after a heavy work day. The heavy oak door has never been broken and is still locked.

2-B2-4 is a storageroom of the products from the workshops. Quarter of it is for the jewelers and rest for the super-mason. It is mostly empty (it was evacuated before the Disaster) but there is a d6 tons of unused stone slabs and d3 unfinished coffins bound for 1-E5.

2-B2-5 is a former mine what was blocked after a jeweler complained that he does not like a hole in his wall. This anon has no clue what interesting stuff there should be left there, I leave it to you others to invent.

2-B2-6 This spot is a spot of a battle. The Dwarves clearly lost, given the pieces of dwarven armor and bones. Spending hours one could gather pieces enough for one complete dwarven chain mail from the floor.

2-B2-7 The precious stones in the walls still shine beautifully from the PCs torchlight. Lichen grows on the brick wall.

2-B2-8 is a large cavern (or at least this squares part is, have fun with it anons) with damp uneven walls.

A2.
This is the bottom of the top level's ravine.
1-Dwarven panic room. Protected by the blade trap in A1, this heavily reinforced room was probably intended as a hidden safehouse for dwarven nobles. Most of it has been stripped away, but some high-quality stone carvings can still be found on the walls. Some more recent childish coal drawings are covering some of them. This rooms seems to have been breached by a badly-carved tunnel.
2-Bottom of the ravine. Here seem to live a tribe of a dozen of diminutive and silent folk covered with ill-made cloaks, who flee and squeak when the PCs approach them. If they manage to catch one and pull its hood, the individuals are revealed as infant mongrelfolk, seemingly mute and terrified of them. They are Kalita's brood.
3-Tent of Kalita. Kalita is a mongrelwoman who seemingly mixes the traits of almost all races found in the dungeon. Her face for example is half-bullywog, half-elven, split down the middle, and her hair is a mess of squirming rat tails. Next to her tent is a mess of junk from all around the dungeon. She calls the other mongrelmen her children, and given the age difference, she might well be. Unlike them, she speaks and is rather coherent. Polite PCs might trade with her, or even bargain for shelter. They can also buy a ride up the ravine if they wish to come back to the upper level. Kalita and her children will take them on their back and climb up, seemingly effortlessly. If the PCs ask her for her origins, she'll say that she was thrown into the chasm by a man who called her a failure. The players can identify this man as Amphisos.
4-These tunnels seem to have been carved by the mongrelmen as escape routes. They twist and turn but are relatively easy to navigate (no traps). There's a 50% chance the PCs will encounter 1d4 giant cave crabes while navigating them. The crabs are hostile, but not very dangerous, and both the ghouls from the upper level and Kalita will gladly trade for their flesh.

2. A huge mushroom decorated with many ornaments and fetishes takes up the center of the cave. Some shroom cultists are seen worshipping it, and seem to not be interested in the party. A ratman or two can be seen here trading with the shroom men.

3. The small village of the shroom people is guarded by two large shroom warriors. These guys will escort a willing party to the cheiftain.

4. The fenced house of the cheiftain is guarded by his chosen warrior. If there parties best melee adventurer can defeat him in an honorable duel (not to the death) then they can see the cheiftain. This shroom Cultists will give the PCs the task of hunting the great salamander in the pool (see above). If they succeed, then they can regularly trade with these shroomers for exotic goods and potent fungi magic (you can also buy a war-rats).

C4 - The Haunted Labyrinth
This area was deliberately constructed by Amphisos to prevent intruders from proceeding further in to the dungeon. It consists of a confusing maze guarded by four ghostly minotaurs, transplanted and bound here by Amphisos's magic. Each turn spent in this area, the characters have a 4 out of 6 chance to encounter a minotaur ghost. Once spotted, the ghost will magically alert the others and pursue the characters until they have left the maze.

Room 1 is the center of the maze, and holds four minotaur skulls on altars of obsidian. If any of the ghosts are destroyed, they will reform in this room after 1 hour. The ghosts can only be permanently destroyed by exorcising each altar.

C5 - Kobold Warren
At the south exit of the labryinth are poorly spelt signs promising "tresur, geld, magic items", "curses on those who stel the pharos mask".

The exit opens into an muddy dirt-tunnel with mold in it (tunnel 1.)
Gems are embedded into the side of the walls, upon further look they are worthless glass beads.
Tunnel 1 has as traps randomly scattered along:
- one tripwire
- 1 bottle of acid hanging on a wire
- 2d4 fish-hooks hanging at eye-height (human man-sized eye height, heights above or below medium aren't affected)
- 1d4 tiger-traps
Tunnel 2 has a sign on the far corner saying "bewear the curse of teh pharo!"
There are obvious arrow slits along the side of the walls that are covered in wooden slats from the other side.
There are no traps, except for a pool of slippery mud.
Noticeably the floor slopes up a bit.
The end of the tunnel opens up into room 3 where you can see a large boulder ready for dropping down the tunnel, leaning against the wall.
However, there appears to be no one to move it.
The room is mostly empty.
It appears to be a small kobold warren with a cooking pot, a few chests carrying nothing of worth and a large curtain across the room.
The room is full of kobold skeletons.
In the upper right corner behind the curtain is the skeleton of an adventurer.
He has a full kit of plate armor but all else has been looted from him.

A4 is cavern with some caved in sections and a lot of scorch marks.

1 is a large cavern with a muddy floor, movement here is inhibited and it is the nest of 4d6 carnivorous bats. There's a 4/6 chance that they're hibernating. If they sense they're losing they'll flee back to the ceiling or to other parts of the dungeon.

2 is a caved in crossing with scorched walls and floor nearby, a human skeleton carrying ordinary adventurers gear is crushed under the rocks, in addition to his other gear there's a shimmering golden potion nearby his corpse. If drunk it grants temporary invulnerability to the ghosts in C4.

3 is a mummification workshop, containing chemicals of use in the mummification process as well as other necromantic rituals. The walls are lined with sharp implements for the same purpose.

4 is the current home of the fire spirit Ragecombustion. He has been trapped in this section since the cave in and has gone a little crazy from the cabin fever. He is not hostile but is desperately longing for company and will use force to keep anyone in the general area. He is a former servant of Amphisos and is deathly afraid of water. The walls of this cave have awkward paintings made in soot of idyllic household scenes like a family around a dinner table and such. Ragecombustion prefers to stay in the dry areas of 2,3,4 and 6.

5 is small side cave and is mostly featureless, an earlier dungeoneer hid part of his haul here in the muddy earth. It is a treasure of some appropriate value.

6 is another cave inhabited by Ragecombustion and the walls here are painted with idyllic farm life scenes, also in an amateurish hand and exclusively with soot and ash.

Large gothic double doors after the crevasse leads to a room with a gothic, cathedral sort of look with 8 pillars, at the end of the room is a stony grotto and a pit filled with a mysterious green ooze.
Hooded phantasms ceaselessly chant lulling the ooze to sleep.
They do not attack but only "sh" hush you if you make a noise.

A malnourished ogre or two can be found walking around in the Halls of A4 and B4. If killed, they can be found carrying adventurers equipment in their food sacks (on their backs). They'll use makeshift clubs from bone and stalagmites/stalactites. They can be reasoned with if a PC can speak their language and offers them enough food.

Thankyou this is far better place for the bulluwog nest!
Added two tunnels carved by the ran bullywogs (so the place isn't that linear) They are made for short humanoids, humans and lengthier people have problems traveling them. The tunnels are excellent chokepoints, easily filled with lots spear ends. There is a small peakhole where the bullywogs guard the stairway in case Grat Hungru One is coming up for more sacrifices.

The Manticore lives in the room marked nest ( If it would live in the diagonal-wall room it would compete with the spider??) The magic sword is from a previous adventurer who attempted to slay it, now it is in the corner among a nice collection of 3d6 adventurer skulls (no bullywogs)

+ destroyed door between C4 and D4 so the Manticore can roam the larger dungeon.

2-D5 is the Magma Laboratory of the Dwarves. Here the dwarven engineers bended the molten rock to their insane will If you did not hear mad laughter and a lightning strike you did not understand the craziness of the whole operation

The five magma pump machinisms are still working due their sturdy and unnatural construction.

2-D5-1 is the chief operating room. There is few stone tables, mechanisms and gears scattered around in fractal formations. Temperature is extremely high and red light from the almost burst pumps lights the place in eerie lightning.

2-D5-2 is the living quarters of the Dwarven Magma Doctor (lightningstrike). Or one could call it pile of all kinds of stone instruments and more stuff in fractal patterns. Why fractals? No one knows for sure. There even is no bed, the poor lad probably just fell over to the closest pile when sleep claimed him. If one finds and tries to understand his scriptures they take d10 sanity damage and apparently understand that the pump mechanisms work under their own power due the Heatacity (TM pending) of the magma. Various other plans are written down, one such being an armoured magmathrower that moves on tracks.

2-D5-3 The dwarves walled off the previous Dwarven Magma Doctor. Yes, He was that insane. His dry corpse is laying on the ground oddly peacefully.

2-D5-4 is a leaking pump. Sad for the inhabitants of 2-E5.

2-D5-5 is a workshop of the Doctor. It contains one experimental Magma Proof Suit made out of magma-proof stone. Only a dwarf fits inside and movement is extreemely slow. It gives huge bonus to defence (and double that versus heat) butit also gives a similar minus to anything physical. With it one can walk in lava without an issue. Being completely submerged in lava requires a constitution check, if failed the dwarf boils alive.

Cont.

>>68158474

2-D5-6 is empty. With proper emphasis on the word GM should be able to make players spend hours searching this room.

2-D5-7 behind a sturdy locked stone door is stairways downwards, probably to check the magma mechanisms there.

2-D5-8 The Doctors demanded that their "Magma Palace" receives a suitable grand entrance and the dwarven outpost obliged. Therefore the entrance is gloriously detailed with fire engravings and there is several obsidian pillars with sculpted flame patterns. Yes this place should look like the final boss room. The two heavy (and magmaproof) doors require two persons to push but are unlocked. They open towards the magma Laboratory.


>>68143194
Amphisos does not sound like the mage who did that labyrinth. Previously he has dabbled only in illusions and biomancy. + if he could shape stone this much he probably would have just blocked the 1-C5 doorway instead of just illusioing it every day. Lets not make him into a too powerful figure - at least to this anon he feels like someone who is just using this place for now and not permanently. Therefore Id say this one is made by someone else. Perhaps the former mage of 1-B2?

>>68158474
Dammit just noticed that C5 had Kobolds as well as the ooze >>68148273

2-D5-1 has been somewhat poked and searched by Kobolds but the magmapumps gave their danger sense too much goosebumbs so they have left this space mostly intact (the 2-D5-4 broken pump might have been caused by them, though)

The corridor corner below 2-D5-6 contains a crude spike trap. Stepping on a misplaced metal plate springs a three foot metal spike from behind the corner to the height of human heart (kobolds unaffected).

There appears to been a barrier what has blocked the corridor but it has been taken apart, possibly by kobolds fleeing the demise of their warren.

>>68158504
>>68158623
>>68158474
These dwarves definitely dug too deep. Whatever the final boss is, it should be from the deepest dark pits of the earth. Perhaps a demon of some sort?

Also, requesting that the entrance to this dungeon is a huge Stone head like >>68140087 That you have to enter by going into the mouth and down the throat

Love the Magma Doctor

>>68159182
I think the invaders should be elemental spiders that can move through rock without needing tunnels, they crave the calcium in bones and ignore the mineral wealth of the dungeon. They left long ago, but a few were killed and their stone corpses still decorate the lower level.

'Wandering Monster'
The Final Boss does not have a room as a lair. He finds them when he feels like it.

One lazy Flintspider the size of a warhorse remains sleeping in the solid rock, waking up every few months and grabbing a tasty boney critter to snack on and goes back to sleep

Entrance: The Face of Bardoz is
carved in the face of a cliff instead of an entire sculpted head.

Bardoz was the dwarf Geomancer that built the maze. He was also the Chief Engineer of the Pickaxe Consortium. He died in a magma accident and his followers venerated him by carving all the dwarf head stuff.

>>68159182
>>68160250
I agree that this dungeon does not need a True Final Monster, place is far interesting as we are only seeing the remnants of the true Calamity and Things that killed the dwarves are long gone (and there is no need for them to stay here).
We are only seeing what happens afterwards to the ruins and how it receives new life/unlife afterwards.


Yet I prefer that the Entrance is the entire head.
It used to be a small cliffside but the dwarfs erased it to honour Bardoz. They also burnt down all the nearby trees so the Head is clearly visible.
Local humans all agree that the dwarfs took this whole Bardoz thing a bit too seriously but hey, dwarfs are all (at least) a bit mad. And it is rumoured that the dude had 18 CHA( before melting)!

It is said that Bardoz was the one to discover this great dwarven city, and at his death, he was worshipped as their patron god. This great under-city holds many secrets, and many foul things. After the great calamity, many dwarves have tried reclaiming this ancient fort, and all of them failed (though some lasted longer than others). Amphisos has spent many years documenting and trying to uncover the mysteries of the great calamity (perhaps he wishes to harness it).

>Ah dammit there is no route from 2-A4 to 2-A5
No more Ragecombustion rooms to live then. Dammit.

2-A5 is small addition only. The well from 1-A5 continues here and there is a small addition of the Evil Temple.>>68132399. Water has not reached these rooms yet moisture is very high.
2-A5-1 was once the scroll depository of the Evil Temple Priests. However when the dwarfs first excavated this place they decided to have a joyful and righteous book burning session here. A giant scorch mark still marks the spot where the idiots thought that burning many eldritch and magical scrolls at the same time was a great idea. It might have been this act that started the downfall of Bardoz or not.

What is clear is that Ragecombustion claims to been born in this Library if asked about its past. It met Amphisos only far later, after terrible amount of loneliness.

There is no scrolls etc left. However the place is clearly magically tainted and such makes a wonderful summoning location.

2-A5-2 was once part of the library but now it is the home of two Ogres >>68157572, escapees from A-D3-4. After they became lost in the mines they have holed up in this room and will defend it vigorously. They have amassed a small chest with some amount of treasure and loot (might contain little bronze dwarf head of Bardoz)

Also there is the half-eaten corpse of the third ogre. Borke was wounded in a fight with the Bullywogs and ogres had to resort to cannibalism in order to survive. They are deeply ashamed of this.

2-A5-3 is a hidden alcove of the Evil Snake Priests. Probably nothing lovely is hidden here. A grimoire guarded by a reanimated skeletal snake lies on a small pedestal. Many fun and wondrous things can be found within it. Please do not give it to Amphisos or lord von Klauffextor. There is 50% chance that it is at least somewhat damaged by the moisture and age.


Sometimes not filling everything is important as well!

>>68166268

Sunken Gardens

Chamber is lit by a 5 foot diameter glob of magma that shines like a tiny sun, providing light for the lush vegetation. (it mimics the light conditions outside, at night it dims to look like a full moon. Every morning at dawn it rains in this room for a few minutes)

Fruit trees, grass, and crops grow abundantly. White marble stairs lead down to the lower rings. A small pond surrounds a tiny grassy island.

2' tall stone armadillos work tirelessly to maintain the gardens and grow food. They don't talk or attack, but they understand you and will point to or lead you to anything you ask for in the garden (Except #8.)

In the pond is a baby Awakened froghemoth named Tad. It is lonely and will capture visitors and put them on the island and talk with them. It eats the fish that come into the pond through the tiny drains. It knows Amphisos as 'Baldy' and thinks he is funny. It says the armadillos hurt its teeth so it doesn't eat them anymore. It doesn't know much else except it remembers the shadowy mage from long ago who was his first friend.

>>68171346
1. The Green Door. Large stone door made of Malachite. Second door that matches just beyond it. Works like an airlock, first door must be shut before other door will open.
2. Upper level has fruit trees and a little Greek-style building of white marble at #7.
3. Mid level has larger trees like pecans and lots of berry bushes
4. Lower level has lawn and cute little garden plots
5. Pond has small fish and Tad.
6. Island is just a grassy hillock, perfect for picnics.
7. White marble building is cute and tiny. Back passage leads to a bronze door with a sign: Amphisos - Knock and Enter.
8. Animated apple tree named Cranky Frank guards the secret exit. Superior Secret door leads to a similar door opening into the mines. In the passage is a backpack and a magic staff. The pack contains a small spellbook, potions, rations and other travel gear. Cranky Frank will let you pick apples, only animating to prevent searching for the door.

Note; There will be very few wandering monsters here, generally only ones who make it through the maze past the minotaurs.

Tad is cute!

Is this lair originally made by Bardoz and no one has found a way inside afterwards? Could work given tha Bardoz was a Geomancer >>68160250

>>68178492
Spiders are unrelated, I like the confusion factor.

Tad is pretty tough but not very aggressive, he hides in a underwater crevice if he gets hurt.

Amphisos has a lab upstairs, but it is a 'low rent district'. He lives in the complex at 2-C3 and does experiments upstairs.
Bardoz built 2-C3 and the maze.
The Shadow wizard lived there afterwards and
blocked off the normal entrance and added the anti-teleport properties.

Amphisos moved in a couple of years ago.

C4 - the ghost minotaurs will not attack a group if one of the little bronze dwarf heads is shown to them.

The minotaurs were loyal followers of Bardoz in life and might know lore about him. Speak with the Dead spells can uncover long lost secrets.

Details of 2-C3 coming up, might be a couple hours.

VIP Quarters
Dark Gray stone resists all scrying, teleport, stoneshape or other spells. (Amphisos can get in and out)
1. Small marble Grecian Shrine in 2-C3 leads to a bronze door with a sign: “Amphisos - Knock and Enter”. Door is locked unless you knock on it. wooden door beyond. Beyond that is an oval room with a man behind a desk. This is Amphisos. He is writing and has several books on the table. Actually this is a simulacrum, created by Amphisos to do paperwork. If convinced that they have legit business, he might teleport them to 2-D3-2.
2. Guest Room. Cheery fireplace, nice bed, table, chairs, desk and stocked bar. Bathroom with nice tub. There is a red wooden door that is actually a teleporter to the red door in 3. Knock and grab the knob. This can be turned on and off by the inhabitants to lock guests in room 2.
3. Hall of the Medusa. 50 stone statues of men and beasts line this hall. Many of them hold lit lanterns or torches. All are freestanding, none have bases attached. Humans, elves, some ogres, lion, dire wolves, etc. Most of these are illusions, some are statues, some are golems, a few are actually petrified creatures.
4. Kitchen and pantry. 2 twin redheaded girls run the kitchen, Ruby and Pearl. They are low level wizards.
5. Dining hall. Large fireplace in W. wall, pair of crossed battleaxes over the mantle.
6. Servant's quarters. Common room with a bath and 3 bedrooms.
7. Harem. Rugs, low couches, silk hangings, and even a splashing fountain, but no girls. This room was decorated by the shadow wizard. Amphisos summons companions instead. The ancient human butler Maxwell lives here. He is a modestly competent wizard.

8. Fancy bath
9. Master Bedroom. Well furnished, nice fireplace, with a small bookcase near the writing desk. Two Dire Lions are in this room most of the time. One is Amphisos's familiar, Mr Whiskers. The other is a Sentient Illusion named Skitty. Skitty speaks Common, is intangible and can run through walls. Mr Whiskers understands 9 languages, but can't speak. They both protect the bedroom. Skitty runs for help.

There are a lot of valuable things in 2-D3, but not much stored treasure or wizardly stuff. Amphisos does some book research here, but not experiments. His treasure is hidden back in the nearby town.

Well theres always the default of treasure, but thats a bit normal.

Stonecunning School.
Back when the dwarves were rich from mining tons of adamantium they studied and improved dwarven architecture, testing the limits of stone and masonry. They built prototype deathtrap tunnels that only led to a list of trapsmiths that had succeeded at getting past it. The treasure was that your name got magically added.

Actually I would avoid Grimtooth's, but keep the Danger Tunnel stuff. Use traps that maim, not kill. These are training grounds.

>>68191153
The Master (and servants) of the VIP quarters are authorized/attuned to use the basic way in and out, and they can lead guests in or out.

What is this strange place? Cut out of a single, smooth stone and covered in catchy slogans like "Buy two, pay for three". Truly a temple of dwarven avarice.

1. the "parking" lot. One must wonder what kind of parks dwarves enjoy as this ones only remarkable features are faded stripes splayed across the ground. On the southern wall sits a large cubbard with no door merely a glass panel and some strange buttons between colorful items. Entering proves difficult as the door neither has a handle or is push able.

2. Entering the temple is strange, one would think you would take the booths to the east but alas dangereous traps overcome the hardiest of adventurer and theif if they try to enter or leave with any goods. On them though are metal boxes filled with precious coins.

3. A eerily cold section of the temple, a sign labels it as dairy section but one would doubt that any of the items on the shelves were ever something from a mammal. Cold and stinking of rot. To the south between two shelves, lies a strong door.

4. A strange room, empty except for bizarre wooden squares stacked neatly on the floor. Two heavy metal doors lies to the west and too the south a windowed room with an aura of importance.(9) The only other exit are strange, large curtains made out of a cloudy translucent material. The wisps eerily around the characters but causes no harm.

5. The tools section

6.The healthy living section

7. Oh the folly of dwarves, the horrid stench permeates this section. Rows upon rows of rot and decay lay across the strange seats. What were their purpose, why leave this here so long, long ago? No, better not to think about what madness that lies inside the Produce section. To the southeast a stranger yet foul room lies. Doors in a row leading into small rooms with elevated holes of a mysterious function.

8. A room filled with destroyed machinery. What caused the destruction also tore down the impressive wall to the east.

Honestly gotta run so did not have time to add much to these rooms.
These rooms are clearly more swiftly designed and aren't as well carved. The poorest dwarves lived in here. There might not be enough head-space for humans here if GM is cruel.

A tunnel north was started but left unfinished. Now it is flooded and probably is home to something, if nothing else Bullywogs probably like it.

The square 3x3 room contains machinery for the upside baths.

This area is being flooded by increasing amounts of magma and water. Extremely nice combination for sure.

Northwestern corner has a cavern or such. I leave it for others to detail.

Also made >>68190379
bit more interesting. Bar sounds properly inviting at this time..


>>68196133
A3 looks like a combination of Evil Snake Priest rooms and probably caverns from 2A2. Maybe something that caused the cavein that blocked poor RageCombustion?? Can therefore be rather mad. Perhaps a battlefiedl between whatever RockSpiders and the Dwarves? Full of corpses and all other fun?

2E2 and 3 are mostly empty for now, can be filled with all kinds of fun dungeonthingies.

Why here is a shop in middle of dungeon????

>>68191440
see >>68140087
Good luck to your players (Was considering to run this to a full-dwarf group as well). Please report if they survived....

>>68196256
>Why here is a shop in middle of dungeon?
Wizard did it.
Alternatively: Dwarves did it.

>>68196341
A is the laziest and this anon does not see why any of the three wizards of this Dungeon (Bardoz, Shadowfail or Amphisos) would need that.

Same for dwarves: Why they would need a shoppe like this? It even isn't particularly interesting and not much is happening in there...

>>68096475
>The tepid water is tasteless.

>>68196363
Bardoz ain't a wizard. Also, who is shadowfail?

1. Walking up the stairs, the party come across a huge Stone door without any hinges or gaps. The only way to open it is to place the small bronze Bardoz in a hole in the center, effectively acting as a key. Once the head is locked in place, a loud sound is heard as the ancient construction moves into place.

2. Once the party pass through the gate, they will see an empty hallway. If a PC is dwarven and related to the inhabitants that once dwelt here, they can walk through the straight path without harm. If the magic runes on the walls perceive someone to be an intruder, they will be forced to pass the gauntlet. First they must duck and Dodge through the blades of dusk, then they have to jump across the pit of the evening (which opens up from the floor when Intruders arrive), then they have to shuffle on a ledge past the chasm of midnight, and finally they have to run from the boulder of the dawn. Finally the PCs will reach the room of the sun, which has another slot for the small key head, which deactivates the traps behind them (yes, you can bypass the whole gauntlet if you have a dwarf related to this place).

3. The room of the sun is brightly lit from a hole leading up to the surface in it's center. Decorations cover the sides, showing the story of Bardoz and the founding of this place. At the center of the room lies an adamantium sword stuck into the ground, which was once wielded by Bardoz himself (two handed for dwarves and one handed for humans/elves). One would have to succeed in a high strength test, dexterity and Constitution. You can only try once every day, and it damages you if you fail. A dwarf gets easier rolls. It's up to the DM to decide the numbers needed to succeed based on the party. The stats for the sword should also be based on the level of the party (someone can start it if they want). It will never break, is incredibly light, glows when fell things are near, and can cut through Stone with enough strength.

Oh, it's E2 btw, and what's written for 3 is a combination of 3 and 4

An enterprising Dwarf built the shop, then realized he won't be getting his investments back anytime soon from sales so he sold it to the wizards. Now that the wizards have a dull, non-action-packed shop they don't really know what to do with it, so they hand it off to [a tribe dungeon fodder race] to manage. Sometimes, when one of them lost a bet with the other two, they get sent to work on the shop for a day or so.
Surprisingly, [tribe of dungeon fodder race] is actually good at their job, and opening up the market to other dungeon dwellers (and the occasional adventurer) rakes profits.

>>68197254
Shadowfail is a moniker for the unnamed shadow mage who died in >>68098668 years before Ampihisos moved in. He has been mentioned and referenced few times, for example by >>68171346 and >>68110656

May he rest in peace... yet probably doesn't


Bardoz was a Geomancer per >>68160250 so a magic user at least. Not a proper wizard perhaps.

A rought timelime seems to be emerging:

The Evil Snake Priests create a temple deep underground.

Bardoz discovers the place (kills the priests??)

With Urist Bardoz founds the Outpost, discover Adamantium.

Bardoz dies in magma. He is worshipped. The Head is carved.

Magma Doctors move in (somehow dont see them beimg here at the same time with Bardoz)

THE Calamity, death of the outpost.

Various beasts and demihumans move in.

Shadowfail moves in and goes boom.

Undead suburb arrives (it does not feel like old thing)

Few years ago Amphisos starts his researching here.


Anything else missed?

3E3 for deep deep pit in the earth, inside a slightly enlarged natural cave.

1- The pit. A fairly regular, very deep pit, that was probably used to search for ore. The glow of magma can be seen at the bottom. There are remnants of scaffoldings, barely hanging on to the inside. Upon closer examination, the ledge of the pit seems irregular in two places, bearing three longish marks each, as if something had clawed out of the pit.
2- A tool shed carved in the rock. It seemes barred from the inside. Outside of the sheds are the scattered bones of a dozen dwarves. Inside the shed, if the players can remove the barricades, are various old tools, and the intact skelettons of four dwarves. One of them clutches a heavy tome, rendered unreadable by blood and dirt. Among the tools, the PCs can find a magical tower shield that was used to bar the room, and a few ingots of gold.

Shield of the Last Stand: This dwarven-made tower shield is sturdy and heavier than its humans counterparts. It menaces with spikes of steel, one of which is blade-shaped and at its bottom, serving as a rest of sorts to plant the shield in the ground. Whenever its bearer does so, the shield becomes immovable as long as its user is alive, no matter what kind of strength is pushing on the other side. It otherwise functions as a +1 tower shield with a higher than normal strength req.

>>68197736
and now I see that I need to change E3/E4 again... oh well.

>>68197606
I believe that if the dungeon kept on going deeper, you would eventually find the huge caverns that the rock spiders, mushroom men, and various other things came from. When the dwarves stuck into this place in search of more adamantium (digging to deep), they were attacked by the creatures they unleashed. They had to close off the mines first, then the main forge areas, leaving them with just the first few layers. The rock spiders and other things are held back by the lower tunnels being walled off by adamantium.

The last nail in the coffin was the attack of the creature mentioned here >>68124545 >>68124584
>>68124637
>>68124939

Though the warriors were able to seal this creature off with adamantium after a great effort, they were forced to leave their great Homeland due to not being able to mine to sustain themselves.

I think this explains the calamity pretty well, though other things could retcon this

>>68197849
I am OK with this being a patchwork, with lots of goofy and dumb incongruities, old dungeons were like that.
The WalMart crap is truly insultingly stupid.
Why don't we add the Rape Factory, a Negro Egg Chamber, 10 clones of Flair, and Gary Gygax wandering around selling Bardoz heads in the hallways.

It needs to go, patching it isn't working.

>>68198162
Thank you. Seconding removal of walmart. It doensnt add anything apart from its wtf factor to the dungeon

>>68198086
That thing was supposed to be something elf cultists summoned by accident so something fairly new and at least post-disaster. Rock spiders are far more cooler for the ultimate demise, but I vote that we leave the cause of the calamity open for the GM

>>68197481
The ceiling hole would go through chambers above and only let a tiny amount of light in for a few minutes a day.

Put a tiny magma blob sun floating near the ceiling similar to the Garden at 2-C3, except this one glows continuously.

>>68197781
Looking interesting. It appears to this anon that D4 should contain good battlezone and perhaps some clues to the demise of the dwarves...

>>68197721
Same as>>68198162
Please use some imagination at least.

>>68198233
Nah, the sunlights good, because once the PCs finally finish this really hard trap gauntlet, they are treated with a dark room, that once they get up and brush themselves off, starts to light up revealing an awesome sword.

Think about it: they've been underground for good knows how long, and at last they see natural beautiful light, yet it is only fleeting. Surely these adventurers have torches for when it becomes dark again anyway.

>>68198162
Agreed. Don't necessarily need a new map section, just to re-label the numbers.

1. This "courtyard" appears to be a sort of staging area for extending the mines into the natural caves to the northwest. The floor here is covered in debris, smashed tools, loose ore and the odd heavily gnawed bone. A small fountain, now dry, is set into the wall to the south, while the heavy oak door in the east wall hangs loosely on one bent hinge, having been smashed open some time in the past.

D4
A large watery chasm containing numerous moored rowboats, a long pier, and a large sailing ship. The general atmosphere is remarkably like a storm at sea, it's raining sideways, and waves crash and threaten to overturn any row boat attempting to cross the room. The large sailing ship has ragged black sails, and is flying a jolly roger. The sounds of a battle come from the ship's deck, where ghost of the Pirate Captain Dreadtie continually relives his last moments, desperately fighting off a mutiny by phantoms of his former crew. If the party loiters too long on the ship's deck or if they attempt to intervene in the replaying events, the phantoms fade away, and the ghostly pirate captain takes on a visage of his appearance in life and attacks, believing the party to be his mutinous crew. If the Captain's ghost is defeated, the ship, the water, the boats, and the pier all dissolve away, and the watery chamber is replaced by a large cave with a sandy floor, in the center of which is 10ft x 10ft hole, and next to that is several shovels, the skeletal remains of two pirates, an upended chest of pirate treasure, a +1 Cutlass, and a +1 Wheel-lock Pistol with a small powder keg and enough lead shot for 100 shots.

>>68201170
2,3 and 7. Equipment storage and a ready room, where the dwarves (presumably the ones living in B4) would gather to prepare for the day ahead. Near the north wall of this flooded room are two huge banks of lockers and crates, still filled with badly rusted picks, shovels, hammers and other mining gear. A huge stone roundtable, lovingly engraved and large enough to seat a dozen (short) men, sits near the back of the southern locker bank, scattered plates and tankards on and around it. Another fountain, this one large and fairly ornate, takes up the western quarter of the room. This one is not only full, its overflowing, and is the source of the ankle deep water flooding this area and B4. The water is fairly clear, but the fountain itself is the home of a surly water elemental, who has taking a liking to this soggy location and would take offence at people attempting to drain its home. The pipe's spigots have frozen open, but if one were to unstop the drain, currently packed full of mud, the local area might begin to drain.

4. This was once the office and quarters of the foreman of this section of mines. A greedy bastard, even by the standards of dwarves, he had been stashing away the best gems and other shiny bits in the vault (area 9), keeping them from his grumbling subordinates. When the outpost fell, he locked himself in his vault, not that anyone really bothered or cared to look for him. He suffocated in there, too mad from fear and paranoia to open the door. His corpse rose as some sort of ghastly undead (something level appropriate, anything between a ghoul to something nasty like a moghr) and jealously guards his riches, which he has counted over and over for untold years.

5 and 6. These heavy stone benches are arrayed in front of an impressive set of heavy wooden lockers, though the first two feet of wood have rotten clean through from the water. These used to hold the miner's heavy leather and metal mining suits, offering substantial protection from the harsh conditions of the occupation. The lockers mostly stand empty now, though one, its corroded brass nameplate reading 'Shatterwood' in Dwarvish, has thus far resisted any attempt to force it. Inside is one dwarf-sized mining suit remaining, reeking of mold, but by and large intact. The suit functions as full plate with only a +5AC bonus, but grants some resistance to heat; not enough to swim in lava, but enough to at least get close to it. To the east, a small public washroom sits, flooded as the rest but otherwise inoffensive.

8. This storeroom (also the concealed enterance to the speakeasy in D2) was clearly the place of a final stand. The door is still heavily barred by overturned shelves and crates, but something seems to have smashed its way in through the south wall and the resulting fight wrecked more or less everything in here. The door to the speakeasy has been left hanging open, and if a tracker is in the party, this passage still sees a bit of travel, the rubble mostly cleared away in a path from north to south through the rubble.

>>68201258
This is... this is painful. This is worse then the Quik-E-Dwarf. Can we nominate this one for scrapping?

>>68201170
Fuck, forgot the water in this one. Let's say this area is flooded, the water flowing gently down the passage to the west.

Don't be sorry until it's too late to fix it, anon. Try again, something a little more grounded.

>>68202145
What's so bad about it? It's gonzo and silly, but so are a lot of things in this dungeon (and a lot of classic dungeons). Besides, "a wizard did it" is a totally valid explanation for how something exists.

>>68204360

Ask yourself; Why a wizard did it.
If it is for the lulz every time, your players will stop caring.

Nah, I'm with >>68202145 on this one. It's maybe not "painful" but it requires a bit too far of a swing into "Because wacky wizard hijinks!" to work. Doesn't quite fit the feel.

The whole undead marauder leader angle could still work though. Instead of a full on pirate, we have a undead land-based bandit leader. You could have a bit of a haunt puzzle going on, after images of what happened playing at certain points and the party has to follow through a small series of challenges to get to the bandit ghost and fight 'em.

E2 top level

Lightshaft from surface to second level, bypasses first level. about 300' total.

Should mark it on second level map, it is a way in/out.

It fit!

>>68205222
This anon agrees. Water boats is too random, particularly when there is already so many mage did it squares nearby.

However as you said, undead marauders sound fun. Perhaps they were the origibal undeads present and suburbia rebelled from them?

Could also be responsible for >>68097104

Anyway square needs redrawing

Extremely good point. Nothing wrong with Dreadtide directly, yet it fits far more into an adventure that at least happens on surface!

Still we can put merciless undead to d4, just with a slight rework..
