DUNGEON
MASTER'S LAIR (DM'S LAIR)
The
Dungeon Master's Lair, located underground near
Port Foozle with a direct exit off the
Great Underground Highway, was
constructed before the reign of
Dalboz of Gurth and home for his
successors as while ruling the
Great Underground Empire.
This country estate was surrounded by expansive magical landscape of
gardens and lakes, all contained beneath the earth inside a mammoth
cavern. With the collapse of magic in 966 GUE, the garden outside the
cottage finally died off completely by the turn of the century. As
magic slowly began to return in the mid-eleventh century, so did the
flowers and vegetables. The lake and plains in the backyard were home
to an assortment of creatures, including
some sort of lake monster and
at one time a mature
walking castle.
The
interior of the small abode consisted of mere a living room and
bedroom, plus a mirror room which was almost a perfect reflection of
the bedroom. Dalboz had always considered adding a conversation pit. He
did however manage to install
Harry the home security system before his
departure to confront
Yannick in 1048 GUE.
