DUNGEON23 – Megadungeon Challenge – Room #32 – Level #2a – The Citadel

SQUARE OF THE DARK OATH

This square bears its name due to an old custom to use the square as a place where people met and sealed deals. The square has now lost that purpose and has become a crossroads among the many present in the Citadel.

The ceiling of this square is 50 feet high, and is covered by a thick spiderweb crawling with hundreds of tiny spiders (wolf spider type).

The web strains like a circulatory system and reaches almost every room of the citadel.

The tiny spiders are half-foot in size, and they roam the spiderweb, delivering messages from room to room.

It is a good habit to give them some food in exchange for their service.

It is important to note that killing, harming or stealing one of these spiders is considered a capital crime.

THE WELL

This well is now dry, the water has gone away after a series of tremors that opened a rift at its bottom and drained the pool of water even deeper.

Some primers have the habit to throw coins in it, so a good amount of coins can be found at its bottom.

The problem is no one ever descended in the well after the tremors, and from time to time, strange howling and other creepy groanings can be heard coming from the well.

Descending into the well without a written pemission of the Citadel Council is considered a crime fined with 100 gp and seven days of imprisonment.
