** CASTLE LOUNGEHAWK **
A. PRICE:
Free.
B. CREDITS
I've made the utmost attempt to credit the original authors in the room descriptions themselves.
The unsung hero is Gary Gygax: his work from the Dungeon Masters Guide and Greyhawk supplement was used extensively, esp. for the Upper Levels.
If I have missed anyone, please let me know!
C. THANKS
A big thanks to all of the many and varied contributors, for their many and varied ideas!
D. PREFACE
This is a light-hearted killer monty haul dungeon.
Castle Loungehawk is very much in the spirit of WG7 Castle Greyhawk; in fact, there are interconnections between the two dungeons.
This one is meant for humorous enjoyment, and, it is, at times: The Mother of All Silly Dungeons.
E. CHARACTERS
DMs, warn your players in advance that character deaths and TPKs are a virtual guarantee.
If a character dies, just generate another from Appendix I: Pregens.
F. MONSTERS
Roll 2d6 when a monster is encountered.
2-6: monster attacks
7: monster does nothing
8-12: monster is friendly
G. WANDERING MONSTERS
Check every 1 hour, 1 in 6 chance for a wandering monster.
H. MONSTERS, NUMBER APPEARING
Monsters should have their level number (I-X) indicated.
Balance the number appearing to the TPL (total party level).
I. RUMORS
1. The Throne of the Gods is located in the Underworld below Castle Loungehawk!
2. Not all of the monsters in the Underworld are hostile. In fact, most aren't. Some mysterious force keeps them nice.
J. QUESTS
1. Find the Teeth of Dahlver-Nar
2. Rescue the Princess (Princess Leia)
K. WARNING
Note that due to the nature of some of the jokes, Castle Loungehawk is PG-16, at least!
L. NON-MAGICAL TREASURE
Double the amount of treasure.
The reason for this is to provide the PCs with sufficient XP.
M. MAGIC ITEMS
House rule: identify fully reveals everything about an item.
L. TRAINING
Characters level up automatically.
If they find a training room, they can trade in treasure for XP, on a 1to1 ratio.
Training at these magical places is instantaneous.

LIBRARY ENCOUNTERS D6 (By Dragonspipe)
1 - Very Smelly Man, asleep and snoring loudly. reeks of urine. he is a 6th level thief, and is 25% likely to wake up and will attempt to pickpocket one of the PC's. He has a dagger, +2, and 35cp.
2 - Cultist. There is a (pick color) robed person who immediately zeroes in on one of the PC's, and begins talking constantly about a cult of (d4) 1- Squid 2 - Ferrets 3 - Mushrooms 4 - Cleanliness. The Cultist is a level 3 Cleric, and may be run as the DM sees fit, perhaps joining the party, attacking them, or whatever.
3 - Folk Song Day! there is a group of three folksingers in the library today, singing. Any PC that stops to listen is 50% likely to learn Useful Lore about the Megadungeon. (reveal something about one of the unexplored rooms to the Player)
4 - Masturbator. While looking around an isolated part of the library, one of the PC's will see a humanoid (DM choice) that is masturbating. The humanoid will be male, and of normal Hit Dice for their species.
5 - Ghost Librarian! Suddenly it feels like you have passed through a very cold breeze. An echoing voice says to the party's magic-user, "YOU! YOU DID NOT RETURN THE LORD OF THE RINGS, FIRST EDITION!" This is a case of mistaken identity, but the Ghost Librarian is certain the PC is the offender. It is unlikely, but possible, to reason with the Ghost. The late fee demanded is 4,000gp. Excellent role-playing may mitigate the situation. Otherwise, the Ghost will attack. (GHOST LIBRARIAN: HD 4 AC: 2 hp: 32 #att: 1 D: 1-6, save vs. Fear or Flee for 1d6 rounds.)
6 - Taco Vendor. Just outside the library door, a Taco Vendor with food cart has set up. The tacos are 5sp/each, and are quite delicious. The Vendor is also quite knowledgable about the general area of the Dungeon, and can relate to the PC's where the worst areas are to avoid IF the Vendor likes the PC being spoken to. (roleplay and reaction rolls)
There is a 25% chance that the Goblin Library Bus arrives. The GLB transports books between the various libraries. (saunatonttu)

1) lower one attribute of the character by 1 point,
2) give a magical shock for 5-50 hit points,
3) turn the character to gaseous form,
4) deliver a scroll upon which is a clue as to how to lower the force field, ("bring the scepter, which lies in gold" - a reference to Area 22)

pitcher. As soon as the party enters, the gargoyle will ask
a riddle, and if it is not answered (correctly) it will spray poison
upon the group (save or dead). If answered, the nymph
will then recite a poem which is a clue to a special
treasure.
You heard me before, yet you hear me again, but then I die, until you call me again. What am I?

The ogres think they killed the paladin, but he is not dead. (He is 2nd level, and has 1hp remaining. S 14 I 15 W 14 D 16 CON 10 CHA 17)
The players can of course heal the Paladin, but they cannot restore his spine without a Restoration or Heal spell (or similar divine intervention). Galon became trapped in the dungeon when entering through a portal. Since his legs cannot be healed, he will ask for an honorable death. He wears normal Plate Mail, and has a bastard sword & shield. In a pouch he has 20pp.
046b. OGRE LAIR (by Dragonspipe)
Two Ogres (Crudge & Bippy) are arguing here about whether or not to season the Fallen Paladin for cooking. If they notice the PCâs, they will set aside their differences and attack.

Pedestal
This short, thick cylinder has six knobs in the shape of
flowers. Atop the pedestal lies a strangely wrought crown,
but it is untouchable due to a force field.
Turning the knobs will
1) lower one random attribute of the character by 1 point,
2) give a magical shock for 5-50 hit points,
3) turn the character to gaseous form,

Walking through it, it can give your brain an overload of info (treat as a feeblemind) and the effects of one of the magical books/tomes/manuals in the DMG. As a side-effect, the character now knows the entire DMG (or a random book), by heart, like some kind of an idiot savant.)

Faster burning torches and oil at twice to four times the price. The further in you get the higher the price. I also have a success chart for vending chests. Just like vending machines sometimes they fail to give product. Or give the wrong selection. Often times the most desirable selection is "sold out". I even have a very small chance of running into the vendor that stocks the chests. He is a greedy old coot that can be bribed to reveal the trap locations. Sometimes accurate sometimes not.

match is); thereafter the effect of the dweomer wears off and the
creature will no longer serve due to realization of the enchantment

718. MENTZER MANOR (dragonspipe)
You see a 60'x20' room which houses the lobby of a low-cost dungeon housing unit. Centered on the wall opposite you is a 20' long countertop, behind which are several desks. One human female stands behind this area, dressed in busines attire, wearing a permanent, distorted smile. There are two exits on either side of the desk/counter/sign-in area.
**************************************************************************************
The woman is a FLESH GOLEM, 7HD. AC:8 #ATT:2 D:2-12/2-12 XP: 1500? INT: low
Her program is to sign people in to one-room Studio domiciles in Mentzer Manor, for 500gp. The lobby looks shabby, with paneled walls, a musty smell, and a large, dirty aquarium along one wall. There is a faint smell of urine and vomit. The Golem will attack anyone who attempts to force open the elevator doors, which will not open without flipping a switch underneath one of the desks.
The elevators lead to units 1-47(east), and 48-95(west). Each side of the building is a tower, and each tower is 47 storeys tall. They exist in a pocket universe, and the view from the windows is an endless, grey cloudy expanse, as well as a view of the opposite tower 47' away. The elevator is programmed to never return to a floor that has a current tenant on the books, thus trapping them until escape, insanity and/or death ensues. Each unit is however stocked with 2 weeks food, has running water, and a working toilet and shower. There is also a microwave oven, one-cup coffee maker, and small TV which picks up TVLAND and CNN reporting the OJ Simpson chase in an endless loop.
The elevator doors at each level are very difficult to force open.
Adventurers exploring the Studios will find in each room: (d100)
01-10% empty
11-22% single male, insane . d6: 1-megalomaniac 2-homicidal maniac 3-catatonic 4-delusional 5-schizoid 6-hysterical

Donald Pyle In my big dungeon i have designated "rest areas" that promise no wandering monsters if a posted amount of gold is deposited in the slot. With vending chests. Some supply food, some supply weapons like arrows, some even supply single use magic like scrolls and potions. A few are traps tho. LoL All at premium prices of course.
Donald Pyle I also have a new race called the dungeonites. They provide a hotel of sorts. You pay to enter, 24hrs get a warm bed, shower, with total protection from any interuptions. Additional services like healing and armor/weapon repair. A merchant shop and magic supply. When your done you leave thru the same door and continue on. They are a race that has learned to profit from the service of adventurers with a great reputation and great service they are very trustworthy and true nutral so the will serve anyone just the same. Curiously enough the area is just a door. Entry inside is huge but takes up no space on the map. Just the door. All establishments are identical except items for sale. Those are always tailored to the party and adventure. Expensive to be sure but worth the price. Merchants will buy gems and items. A book of credit is always available so characters can cash in items and not cary them or gold around and then buy whats needed later. If a dungeonite hotel is available at that location, and is vacant. Yes they have a no vacancy sign. Bad behavior gets you 86ed for life.its a fun idea but not always a convenient one. I often put them in places where the party dont yet need them. Forcing a long back track or to push on till they find one. Kind of like roadside rest areas. Never one when you realy need it.

881. ENCLAVE OF THE DOUCHELORDS
This is a large, circular room, containing exits in numerous directions. The room is dimly lit, and in its center rises a 30â tall rock formation closely resembling a douche bulb and hose, and it is spattering liquid and mist at random intervals. Around the Giant Douche stand five apparently human males in plate armor. They wield the following weapons: Two-handed sword (North), Two-handed axe (East), Longsword/Shortsword (Southeast), 3-headed Flail (Southwest), Hammer & Shield (West)
The nearest warrior to the entrance the party arrives from turns to them and says something like:
âAll who enter here shall face our steel! Tread no further!â And the other warriors turn to face the party as well. If the party member entering the chamber is invisible or otherwise concealed, the warriors have a 33% chance per round of detecting the character, and the same thing will happen as above. (The warriors will then be able to track that character and will be -4 to attack them) The Douchelords will attack immediately any who enter their Enclave. They are automatons, incapable of conversing.
The Douchelords are immune to all mind-affecting spells and effects.
DOUCHELORD 1: HD: 7 hp: 60 AC: 0 #att: 2 D: 1d10+3/3d6+3 + 1d6 fire

Tooth of Dahlver-Nar (#25: Possessor need neither eat nor drink for up to 1 week)
899. DISINTEGRATION CHAMBER (by Dragonspipe)
This is a medium sized chamber, made entirely of black stone. A low (66hz) hum permeates the room. In the center is a white dais, upon which rests a black book.
There are six deadly traps â very well disguised pressure plates. Stepping on one of these will cause a 4â poison dart to shoot from the ceiling , and will strike without error. Any PC hit with a dart must Save vs. Poison (with a +3 bonus), or die.
The book itself is not trapped. It is closed, and has black covers, and black pages. Anyone who opens the book who is not a magic-user will see nothing but plain, black pages with nothing on them. Moving the book from the dais will cause it to gradually âphase outâ, and will disappear entirely when brought 10â from the dais.
A magic-user who inspects the book while on the dais will clearly see on the cover , âHigh Magickâ. They will be able to see a Introduction that gives a bio on a long-dead archmage, a few sections on magick theory, symbolism, and language. The rest of the book appears to be spells, and requires a Read Magic spell to comprehend. The spells present are: improved invisibility, fireball, stoneskin, cloudkill, conjure fire elemental, and demon summoning I, II, III.
At the end of the book, however , there is another section, not written in magic script, entitled âSupreme Ultimateâ. A brief section describes an âUltimate Powerâ. Upon reading this section, the 66hz will seem to get much louder, and above that , a powerful voice says âWe find you worthy of the Highest Magic. Will you rule this dungeon, and the world around it? Answer yes or no.â
If the PC answers âyesâ, they are hit with a searing beam of radiation. This will destroy all clothing and items the character is wearing. They must make a Saving Throw vs. Death Ray, or die.
If the PC answers ânoâ, the book vanishes, leaving in its place copies of scrolls of the spells mentioned above. The scrolls can be taken from the dais without vanishing.

B. CREDITS
I've made the utmost attempt to credit the original authors in the room descriptions themselves.
The unsung hero is Gary Gygax: his work from the Dungeon Masters Guide and Greyhawk supplement was used extensively, esp. for the Upper Levels.
If I have missed anyone, please let me know!
C. THANKS
A big thanks to all of the many and varied contributors, for their many and varied ideas!
D. PREFACE
This is a light-hearted killer monty haul dungeon.
Castle Loungehawk is very much in the spirit of WG7 Castle Greyhawk; in fact, there are interconnections between the two dungeons.
This one is meant for humorous enjoyment, and, it is, at times: The Mother of All Silly Dungeons.
E. CHARACTERS
DMs, warn your players in advance that character deaths and TPKs are a virtual guarantee.
If a character dies, just generate another from Appendix I: Pregens.
F. MONSTERS
Roll 2d6 when a monster is encountered.
2-6: monster attacks
7: monster does nothing
8-12: monster is friendly
G. WANDERING MONSTERS
Check every 1 hour, 1 in 6 chance for a wandering monster.
H. MONSTERS, NUMBER APPEARING
Monsters should have their level number (I-X) indicated.
Balance the number appearing to the TPL (total party level).
I. RUMORS
1. The Throne of the Gods is located in the Underworld below Castle Loungehawk!
2. Not all of the monsters in the Underworld are hostile. In fact, most aren't. Some mysterious force keeps them nice.
J. QUESTS
1. Find the Teeth of Dahlver-Nar
2. Rescue the Princess (Princess Leia)
K. WARNING
Note that due to the nature of some of the jokes, Castle Loungehawk is PG-16, at least!
L. NON-MAGICAL TREASURE
Double the amount of treasure.
The reason for this is to provide the PCs with sufficient XP.
M. MAGIC ITEMS
House rule: identify fully reveals everything about an item.
L. TRAINING
Characters level up automatically.
If they find a training room, they can trade in treasure for XP, on a 1to1 ratio.
Training at these magical places is instantaneous.

LIBRARY ENCOUNTERS D6 (By Dragonspipe)
1 - Very Smelly Man, asleep and snoring loudly. reeks of urine. he is a 6th level thief, and is 25% likely to wake up and will attempt to pickpocket one of the PC's. He has a dagger, +2, and 35cp.
2 - Cultist. There is a (pick color) robed person who immediately zeroes in on one of the PC's, and begins talking constantly about a cult of (d4) 1- Squid 2 - Ferrets 3 - Mushrooms 4 - Cleanliness. The Cultist is a level 3 Cleric, and may be run as the DM sees fit, perhaps joining the party, attacking them, or whatever.
3 - Folk Song Day! there is a group of three folksingers in the library today, singing. Any PC that stops to listen is 50% likely to learn Useful Lore about the Megadungeon. (reveal something about one of the unexplored rooms to the Player)
4 - Masturbator. While looking around an isolated part of the library, one of the PC's will see a humanoid (DM choice) that is masturbating. The humanoid will be male, and of normal Hit Dice for their species.
5 - Ghost Librarian! Suddenly it feels like you have passed through a very cold breeze. An echoing voice says to the party's magic-user, "YOU! YOU DID NOT RETURN THE LORD OF THE RINGS, FIRST EDITION!" This is a case of mistaken identity, but the Ghost Librarian is certain the PC is the offender. It is unlikely, but possible, to reason with the Ghost. The late fee demanded is 4,000gp. Excellent role-playing may mitigate the situation. Otherwise, the Ghost will attack. (GHOST LIBRARIAN: HD 4 AC: 2 hp: 32 #att: 1 D: 1-6, save vs. Fear or Flee for 1d6 rounds.)
6 - Taco Vendor. Just outside the library door, a Taco Vendor with food cart has set up. The tacos are 5sp/each, and are quite delicious. The Vendor is also quite knowledgable about the general area of the Dungeon, and can relate to the PC's where the worst areas are to avoid IF the Vendor likes the PC being spoken to. (roleplay and reaction rolls)

This short, thick cylinder has six knobs in the shape of
flowers. Atop the pedestal lies a strangely wrought crown,
but it is untouchable due to a force field.
Turning the knobs will
1) lower one random attribute of the character by 1 point,
2) give a magical shock for 5-50 hit points,
3) turn the character to gaseous form,
4) deliver a scroll upon which is a clue as to how to lower the force field,
The hint on the scroll is: "Drop thy pants, and insert thy main member." (To lower the force field, one must fuck a shrieker).
5) turn the character permanently invisible, and
6) open a trap door in the floor which drops all in the room down a chute to a level far beneath the place.
The trap door leads down to Level 7.

Under a loose flagstone, hidden by the mold, is 1500 ep, a potion of flying, a potion of red herring (causes the imbiber to see some sort of an illusion), && a scroll of wall of text (Mu2: a failed save means you start reading (if literate), save every round after that to shake the effect off. Walking through it, it can give your brain an overload of info (treat as a feeblemind) and the effects of one of the magical books/tomes/manuals in the DMG. As a side-effect, the character now knows the entire DMG (or a random book), by heart, like some kind of an idiot savant.)

Forgot the equipment vending chest. Torches and oil are common items, along with rope and iron door spikes. Vended items are always of lowest quality tho. Faster burning torches and oil at twice to four times the price. The further in you get the higher the price. I also have a success chart for vending chests. Just like vending machines sometimes they fail to give product. Or give the wrong selection. Often times the most desirable selection is "sold out". I even have a very small chance of running into the vendor that stocks the chests. He is a greedy old coot that can be bribed to reveal the trap locations. Sometimes accurate sometimes not.

in the shitter is a dead beltpunk guy who suffocated trying to eat a gem. the floor sags because it is a wooden prop. the bare dirt beneath has 6 coins standing upright, singly propping the floor in some noneuclidian display.
the otyugh is dead because the six coins were holding something worse at bay. his master yet weeps because it couldn't leave til it finished its duty. a bodak, cuz why not. the otyugh's master was a pixie.

Reading one of these can grant a PC the skill of Spellcraft, if applicable to your system. The reason the monsters do not conflict in this room relates to deeper mysteries of the Castle, and who(m) controls it. There will be banners on the walls of the Bookstore suggesting who this may be.

Ask a specific question about the past, and the scroll will write the answer on itself, or ask a question on the future, and it will give the most likely outcome, and change itself till the event happens

718. MENTZER MANOR (dragonspipe)
You see a 60'x20' room which houses the lobby of a low-cost dungeon housing unit. Centered on the wall opposite you is a 20' long countertop, behind which are several desks. One human female stands behind this area, dressed in busines attire, wearing a permanent, distorted smile. There are two exits on either side of the desk/counter/sign-in area.
**************************************************************************************
The woman is a FLESH GOLEM, 7HD. AC:8 #ATT:2 D:2-12/2-12 XP: 1500? INT: low
Her program is to sign people in to one-room Studio domiciles in Mentzer Manor, for 500gp. The lobby looks shabby, with paneled walls, a musty smell, and a large, dirty aquarium along one wall. There is a faint smell of urine and vomit. The Golem will attack anyone who attempts to force open the elevator doors, which will not open without flipping a switch underneath one of the desks.
The elevators lead to units 1-47(east), and 48-95(west). Each side of the building is a tower, and each tower is 47 storeys tall. They exist in a pocket universe, and the view from the windows is an endless, grey cloudy expanse, as well as a view of the opposite tower 47' away. The elevator is programmed to never return to a floor that has a current tenant on the books, thus trapping them until escape, insanity and/or death ensues. Each unit is however stocked with 2 weeks food, has running water, and a working toilet and shower. There is also a microwave oven, one-cup coffee maker, and small TV which picks up TVLAND and CNN reporting the OJ Simpson chase in an endless loop.
The elevator doors at each level are very difficult to force open.
Adventurers exploring the Studios will find in each room: (d100)
01-10% empty
11-22% single male, insane . d6: 1-megalomaniac 2-homicidal maniac 3-catatonic 4-delusional 5-schizoid 6-hysterical

Donald Pyle In my big dungeon i have designated "rest areas" that promise no wandering monsters if a posted amount of gold is deposited in the slot. With vending chests. Some supply food, some supply weapons like arrows, some even supply single use magic like scrolls and potions. A few are traps tho. LoL All at premium prices of course.
Donald Pyle I also have a new race called the dungeonites. They provide a hotel of sorts. You pay to enter, 24hrs get a warm bed, shower, with total protection from any interuptions. Additional services like healing and armor/weapon repair. A merchant shop and magic supply. When your done you leave thru the same door and continue on. They are a race that has learned to profit from the service of adventurers with a great reputation and great service they are very trustworthy and true nutral so the will serve anyone just the same. Curiously enough the area is just a door. Entry inside is huge but takes up no space on the map. Just the door. All establishments are identical except items for sale. Those are always tailored to the party and adventure. Expensive to be sure but worth the price. Merchants will buy gems and items. A book of credit is always available so characters can cash in items and not cary them or gold around and then buy whats needed later. If a dungeonite hotel is available at that location, and is vacant. Yes they have a no vacancy sign. Bad behavior gets you 86ed for life.its a fun idea but not always a convenient one. I often put them in places where the party dont yet need them. Forcing a long back track or to push on till they find one. Kind of like roadside rest areas. Never one when you realy need it.

848. TRAP
Donald Pyle In my big dungeon i have designated "rest areas" that promise no wandering monsters if a posted amount of gold is deposited in the slot. With vending chests. Some supply food, some supply weapons like arrows, some even supply single use magic like scrolls and potions. A few are traps tho. LoL All at premium prices of course.
Donald Pyle I also have a new race called the dungeonites. They provide a hotel of sorts. You pay to enter, 24hrs get a warm bed, shower, with total protection from any interuptions. Additional services like healing and armor/weapon repair. A merchant shop and magic supply. When your done you leave thru the same door and continue on. They are a race that has learned to profit from the service of adventurers with a great reputation and great service they are very trustworthy and true nutral so the will serve anyone just the same. Curiously enough the area is just a door. Entry inside is huge but takes up no space on the map. Just the door. All establishments are identical except items for sale. Those are always tailored to the party and adventure. Expensive to be sure but worth the price. Merchants will buy gems and items. A book of credit is always available so characters can cash in items and not cary them or gold around and then buy whats needed later. If a dungeonite hotel is available at that location, and is vacant. Yes they have a no vacancy sign. Bad behavior gets you 86ed for life.its a fun idea but not always a convenient one. I often put them in places where the party dont yet need them. Forcing a long back track or to push on till they find one. Kind of like roadside rest areas. Never one when you realy need it.

881. ENCLAVE OF THE DOUCHELORDS
This is a large, circular room, containing exits in numerous directions. The room is dimly lit, and in its center rises a 30â tall rock formation closely resembling a douche bulb and hose, and it is spattering liquid and mist at random intervals. Around the Giant Douche stand five apparently human males in plate armor. They wield the following weapons: Two-handed sword (North), Two-handed axe (East), Longsword/Shortsword (Southeast), 3-headed Flail (Southwest), Hammer & Shield (West)
The nearest warrior to the entrance the party arrives from turns to them and says something like:
âAll who enter here shall face our steel! Tread no further!â And the other warriors turn to face the party as well. If the party member entering the chamber is invisible or otherwise concealed, the warriors have a 33% chance per round of detecting the character, and the same thing will happen as above. (The warriors will then be able to track that character and will be -4 to attack them) The Douchelords will attack immediately any who enter their Enclave. They are automatons, incapable of conversing.
The Douchelords are immune to all mind-affecting spells and effects.

Tooth of Dahlver-Nar (#25: Possessor need neither eat nor drink for up to 1 week)
899. DISINTEGRATION CHAMBER (by Dragonspipe)
This is a medium sized chamber, made entirely of black stone. A low (66hz) hum permeates the room. In the center is a white dais, upon which rests a black book.
There are six deadly traps â very well disguised pressure plates. Stepping on one of these will cause a 4â poison dart to shoot from the ceiling , and will strike without error. Any PC hit with a dart must Save vs. Poison (with a +3 bonus), or die.
The book itself is not trapped. It is closed, and has black covers, and black pages. Anyone who opens the book who is not a magic-user will see nothing but plain, black pages with nothing on them. Moving the book from the dais will cause it to gradually âphase outâ, and will disappear entirely when brought 10â from the dais.
A magic-user who inspects the book while on the dais will clearly see on the cover , âHigh Magickâ. They will be able to see a Introduction that gives a bio on a long-dead archmage, a few sections on magick theory, symbolism, and language. The rest of the book appears to be spells, and requires a Read Magic spell to comprehend. The spells present are: improved invisibility, fireball, stoneskin, cloudkill, conjure fire elemental, and demon summoning I, II, III.
At the end of the book, however , there is another section, not written in magic script, entitled âSupreme Ultimateâ. A brief section describes an âUltimate Powerâ. Upon reading this section, the 66hz will seem to get much louder, and above that , a powerful voice says âWe find you worthy of the Highest Magic. Will you rule this dungeon, and the world around it? Answer yes or no.â
If the PC answers âyesâ, they are hit with a searing beam of radiation. This will destroy all clothing and items the character is wearing. They must make a Saving Throw vs. Death Ray, or die.
If the PC answers ânoâ, the book vanishes, leaving in its place copies of scrolls of the spells mentioned above. The scrolls can be taken from the dais without vanishing.

Pres, In a room is detailed silver inlay artwork. It is artwork of some sort of unsettling religious ritual and writing. It would take 6 turns to pry the silver off the walls using a hammer and chisle (making a lot of noise.) the silver has a 2,000 gp melt value. If sold as art, it may gain the attention of cultist...

This is the lair of Steve, the mysterious controller of the dungeon.
Sir B'rate is here: this paladin berates everyone.
okay, does Sir B'rate end up in the last room of the dungeon? "Whaat took you slowpokes so long. I was already here!" ,he says, foot on the chest of the dead demigod ruler of the dungeon
He can berate the Party and then open a portal outside.
all NPCs present take 1d6 morale (or % something how it works in AD&D?) damage from the berating :smiley:

Note to readers: I have nothing against Steve: this is just how things worked out, randomly.
