@VeyrinDay nope, but I'd be happy to make one if that makes it easier to keep track of! I'm liking the sound of Denebris already.

@Mae valuable item choose I

@Mae

Vile Friend(?): Vorath-Dakoth, the Dracolich
An ancient black dragon that seeked to extend his life before dying at the hands of mighty heroic figures so the first Master succeeded the task by attaining lichdom. Zaz'ak owes the dragon his continued reverence and welps to sacrifice to fuel his phylactery.

@Kenshi cool! which type of valuable item would you like? You can click the links below to see some examples:

valuable item: might be a few doses of a tier 1 potion or concoction or a tier 1 contraption or magic item. It could also be an item with an edge, a map with valuable information on it, or a rare musical instrument.

@Dark Cloud oh hell yes, that's awesome! He could be in Myres Root with the rogues or with Cradle's Abyss. Let me know which faction you think he'd like to be connected to :D

@Mae Well judging by the faction as well as the general imagery I think Vorath would be located in Crade's Abyss or between the Abyss and Myre's Root as a Leader of his own faction.

@Mae

I’ll choose a magic item. If possible I’ll also make it myself.

Elf Slayer - A magic Dwarven Battleaxe meant to slay the dwarves long time rivals, the elves. Gets an edge was used against elves. However this same enchantment makes it weaker against other dwarves, and gives a penalty if used against dwarves.

@Lucius Cypher Damn I hope I roll better in the future, cool item too.

@Mae how do I know which item is a tier 1

@Kenshi sorry, doing the loot rolls early means I don't have everything properly formatted yet. The jist is:

Tier 1 to be useful for PCs, but have minor effect on NPCs.
Tier 2 tend to give PCs a strong advantage or push NPCs into a tough spot.
Tier 3 tend to drastically alter the entire dynamic of the story and NPCs must deal with the fallout.

I'm playing some Valheim this evening but hopefully might have some time a bit later today to give more info. If not I can expand upon it more tommorrow.

@Lucius Cypher hmm, I'd need some time to think about that one. Typically edges don't make you better at killing things though it is possible to grant +position or +effect. Either way, that'd be a tier 2 item since it affects NPC so you can't draw it as your loot this time around.

@Mae

Hmm. Alright a different magic item:

Dwarven Earthbreaker - A strangely small Dwarven pickax, small enough to be held in one hand. Despite its small size it’s magic enchantments enable it to clear the earth as fast as ten pickaxes. Grants an edge for digging holes or breaking through stone.

@Lucius Cypher Perfect! I think you can make Elf Slayer later to give you +effect vs elves at Tier 2 with the dwarvern negative. You could even get started on it as your upcoming downtime action when we get to that point so something to think about.

Last call for traps & locks otherwise we'll go with these:

Locks:

Traps:


If no one has a preference for the sanctum stairs I'll put it on the south exit of the Minion Room.

Other then that, feel free to post IC with your monsters getting settled into life building a dungeon. My reccomendation would be to pick out a few scenes that are meaningful to your character (like overseeing rooms being built to your specifications, traumatising the imps, finding a place for the prisoner, ect). This section takes place over the course of a couple months so feel free to give us a taste of what it's like in your character's mind as they get settled in their new home.

I'd like to see a little of each character before I put up the next GM post, which will lead us into the Lurking phase and downtime fun ;)

@Lucius Cypher Here's the current map, where would you like to put the Secret Tunnel? Or you can switch to a different Tier 1 Room if desired.

@Mae Bloody excellent detail, the light cast from the fire is amazing.

@Mae

Let's see, how about a secret tunnel leading from the Sanctum to the Mine? That way once the mines are further developed, we can add another secret tunnel that leads to a quick exit out in case Darc needs to run away for whatever reason.

@Lucius Cypher here we go:



A secret passage will go unnoticed if it hasn't been recently used, but later down the line you can stick a secret door on it (in the form of a lock, or a trapped false wall if you want to be extra malicious)

I don't have a sanctum map yet but I can certainly make one, particularly now there is a secret tunnel leading into it.

@VeyrinDay *shuffles papers around* Dim and Silent Circular Tier 2 Minion Room to go opposite the secret passage, with Iziza's visage carved into the floor. Just want to confirm you're still happy with it going opposite the Secret Tunnel ;D

@Mae well, if it sounds hard, then we can put it at the other end of the maze, the far right side

@VeyrinDay@Mae@Lucius Cypher@Kenshi

I would like our secret tunnel to extend from the eastern side of Krieg's Maze but not from that entrance formation, and to have it dip south-west slowly nearing the creature lair but not too close and at the end of the tunnel it will open into our sanctum.

@VeyrinDay@Mae@Lucius Cypher@Kenshi

I would like our secret tunnel to extend from the eastern side of Krieg's Maze but not from that entrance formation, and to have it dip south-west slowly nearing the creature lair but not too close and at the end of the tunnel it will open into our sanctum.

I would like to remind everyone that we all share the sanctum. Therefore we should each have our own area that is made specifically to our liking as that seems fairer than just one person getting to decorate it however they want.

Where is the sanctum on the map?

@Dark Cloud

I'd prefer if the secret entrance only connects from the mine to the sanctum. While technically disguised, it's too risky allowing a secret entrance in the maze, which is existentially where the adventurers will be at first and for the longest. The main intention of the secret entrance is to serve as an escape route away from the Sanctum if for some reason it's compromised or we need to move quickly to the mines.
