The Dungeon of Darkness

The Seekers Guide to Twisted Taverns Pg. 204
Ever wish you had a place to practice slaying the undead? Been caught off-guard by a ghoul? Never slayed anything and want to try things out in a safe, nurturing environment? Come to the Dungeon of Darkness! This cozy tavern offers two levels of dungeon training: one for beginners, and one for the more experienced adventurer. Bring your weapon of choice and learn how to slay the undead. Get pointers from the experts—the undead themselves! In addition, you’ll find our food and rooms very satisfactory after a long journey or a hard day of undead training. For adventurers who want to expand their knowledge of the undead, the Dungeon of Darkness is the place to go. This entertainment and training facility is the go-to place for anyone who is nervous about facing their first undead and would like to learn in a more “controlled” environment, or for undead-slaying enthusiasts looking for more kills. Ideally situated in a remote area, the Dungeon of Darkness offers simple, modest, yet safe lodgings. The tavern section is a neat wooden structure that would blend in perfectly in any busy town or sleepy village. It provides a comforting sight as one approaches, as it sits out in a large field that once was one of the most fought-over pieces of land in the country. However, two centuries have passed since the last battle was fought here. Now the surrounding area is as peaceful as death. Deep within the overgrown field are clusters of graves and cairns from various eras of warfare stretching back thousands of years. Compared to this, the Dungeon of Darkness tavern seems downright cozy and inviting, especially at night. Still, there are usually a few guests’ tents pitched outside the tavern, even if the “Vacancy” sign is out. Inside, the tavern is simple and comfortable, with little in the way of entertainment or fancy amenities. It has a very homey atmosphere, the only unsettling element being the undead employees, who are unfailingly polite and do not attack guests in the hospitality areas of the tavern. Guest rooms are upstairs: all are identical in furnishing and decor, and, frankly, rather unremarkable in and of themselves (any interesting events come from the visitors, who can be quite colorful). The first floor consists of the Dead Dining Room, a library (stocked mainly with books about the various types of undead and journals from famous undead hunters), an amazingly well-equipped kitchen, and a small reception area for those who come to partake in the Dungeon of Darkness’s main attraction: dungeons! The Basic Dungeon Experience is good for players levels 6-10. The Advanced Dungeon Experience is best played at levels 10-14. There is still more to discover beyond the Advanced Dungeon Experience, best for levels 15 and up.
