How to survive a deathgaze

Written by soem wise adventurer

"The eyed demons are slow but deadly, their beams can bleed you of your resources like the blood of a healthy gnoll. Thankfully, unlike the obsidian wand, they cannot pierce through walls, so pillars are an invaluable resource when fighting them. If you find one in an open space, you should pray to your god, and if you dont have one, try to forsake its sight. Good luck you, i hope you have more than me."

There's should be a lore why hero doesn't use helmet

quick sierra
#

alertness

#

the dungeon is filled with traps

#

having a damascus steel greathelm would probably reduce how well you can see

lost adventurers logbook 1
"The sewers are rife with aggressive critters, but be not deceived, they can still harm you even through their benign appearence. The slithering menaces are masters of evasion, as their nimble bodies will easily be missed by most conventional weaponry. Deeper down you will find less cute life in the form of small scavenging Gnolls, great, angry crustaceans and sludges of all kinds, even the evil ones... You may also find a wandering specter, forever mourning in this damp tomb. Im glad to not have ended up like that lost soul."

Scribbles and sketches of the sewer wildlife litter the borders of the page, depicting Gnoll Hunters in the act of feasting together.

Red Tablet
A small, scarlet tablet with fluorescent green markings, reminiscent of the Imp's eyes. The writings are small and convoluted, you need to pick it up to read it, but that will cost you a fee...

Bought from impcheer for 1000/1250/1500/2000 Gold, each tablet costs more than the other

#

Entry 1

Early Fall 264
Business is as usual, the gold is flowing in at the same pace as when our business started. Our new recruit is a rookie, but an efficient one. He has a golden tongue for haggling, a useful skill for our kind. However, I feel uneasy. The dwarves are still friendly to us, but their attitude seems to have changed towards us, I cant explain why. Maybe its just my paranoïa acting, but I cant shake that feeling.

#

Entry 2

Late Winter 264
OF COURSE IT HAD TO BE ME! Big guy passed away a few days ago, peace be with his fiendish soul, and with his passing I got the shop as heritage. And the very moment I settled down in a more popular spot of the Metropolis, the whole empire is shook to the core by a coup! Some nutcase decided to kill the ENTIRE DWARVEN COURT, and REANIMATE them for his twisted purpose! How can I sell my wares when theres a GOD DAMN CIVIL WAR brewing! Hell, not brewing, BLOOMING!

#

will post entry 3 and 4 later

quick sierra
#

Entry 3

I have been ruined
Did that fool really think that was a good idea? Our impish legacy, that has lasted for aeons, stopped in its tracks by some megalomaniac. And that resistance force did nothing! Hell, their leader surrendered himself for no reason! Im thankful that the new husks residing in these halls cant see me, that ring sure has some weird properties when in the hands of a demon. Speaking of demons, I've started seeing Succubi pop up around the place, a very worrying sight, since these kinds demons aren't supposed to be here unless there's a bigger, badder one around the corner. The new Lich king is as always residing in his throne room, blocking off the entrance to the lower metropolis for some god-forsaken reason. Ill stay here in hope in reestablishing shop

#

impcheer this is actually really cool lol

quick sierra
#

Entry 4

IT HAPPENED! FINALLY!
Im writing this as fast as I can, but finally, I have a customer! Big guy is probably smiling at me from Hell for that! The endless flow of mindless golems and also mindless monks were finally stopped by someone, a fresh adventurer filled to the brim with gold, and a friendly one at that! I gave them my old ring to help them venture deeper now that I dont need it anymore, I hope they make good use of it. If you, the adventurer, are reading this, I am truly grateful for what you did, I hope my wares will be of good use down there...

#

now for the last entry

#

Entry 5

ADVENTURER, WHAT IN THE HELL DID YOU DO?!
I'm leaving this place right now, sorry I couldn't help you more, I sense a great evil approaching, and I DO NOT want to find out what that is. I hope whatever you could grab from my shop helps you, good luck leaving this accursed place.
Oh, and don't worry about me, ill be fine, maybe one day we will meet on the surface :)

note is found on the impcheer's pedestal after leaving floor 20 during ascension and coming back

#

Very cool

quick sierra
#

what next

#

secret rooms?

wary yarrow
#

Its outside of the dungeon lore but i think it would be really cool to know rogues raid for the cloak

#

But there wouldnt be any good place to find that kind of lore page so

quick sierra
#

if you die as rogue with a +10 cloak

#

it would be found in the remains

static stratus
#

Evan is planning on character lore too

#

Character development! :D

quick sierra
#

ill make it first %w%

#

but before that

#

secret rooms

#

first of all

#

Shattered Tablet
Is it a rock? Is it a page? Its... both!
This small broken down tablet has small inscriptions etched into the kept stone, too tiny to read from a distance. Its a shame you wont be able to read all of it

#

now for the actual lore

#

what secret room do i start with

static stratus
#

Uhh... summoning, then maze
cos those are the only ones I know xd

quick sierra
#

trap then maze

#

got it

#

also theres like 10 other secret rooms

#

golden chests

#

ammo stock

#

bees

#

trapped gold

#

secret library/alchemy pot

#

Accursed Tomb for trap room

What an odd request from that fellow. To be dropped on top of enough summoning traps to repopulate the city when he kicks the bucket. Alas, he paid me well, and I feel like refusing this offer would be detrimental to my own health. Putting his corpse on the trap isn't the hard part, good knowledge about trap triggers and a potion of levitation, and the job is done. Actually creating every trap without setting them off is a monumental feat, even for a skilled trap maker like me

Lore page for secret lab
(Might be terrible lore lol because its my first time trying)

Spoiler for lore idea: ||My idea is maybe the person who lives in the dungeon's secret lab also takes care of the bees and the secret gardens?||

Day 142
Today's harvest of sungrass is plentiful. Maybe I'll make a treat for Buzz today. It's about time that poor guy got a treat anyway, he deserves it. That might cheer him up from that incident... he had to watch his only friend go, and Buzz was only a kid then... well, enough about sad times. I'll cook up something nice for him, and that should be enough for the day. I'll continue research on this new plant tomorrow.

Day 156
Recently there's been too many things going wrong... Buzz has been getting more aggressive lately, and the farm doesn't seem to be producing as much as before. I sense a great evil from far below. I wonder what happened? Only thing I know for sure is that I'm not sticking around to find out. It's a pity I didn't exactly get to finish my research down here, I barely made enough notes for all the things I can do with these plant seeds. It's not safe down here... I need to leave. I'm sorry Buzz, I hope you'll find companionship in another adventurer soon...

pretty good!

Alcove Alcohol for secret library

...recipe for herbal wine is rather easy, you can make it with few ingredients, and it is a great beverage for the harsh winters.
In a large container, add a handful of Mageroyal seeds, a twig of rosemary, some honey and a pinch of sea salt. Then crush everything into a fine paste, this will take some time, but you dont need a lot of this Mageroyal essence to make the wine.
In a separate jar, pour one waterskin of red wine, one entire dried Firebloom and an ounce of Mageroyal essence. Mix well then heat up with whatever you have on hand, let cool for a day and your delicious drink is ready!

its literally just from a cookbook

A Necromancer's observation of the Prison part 1
DAY 1
"It is time, to recover what is mine! I've been stuck in the prison for 3 years straight, and now there is a riot and most of the guards have given up, and it even seems that the Guardians have become friendly to us as well!
DAY 2
No one has gotten out for anything, we've even started to look for the warden, but she's no where to be seen. I was able to recover my gear, and Ive been looking for the perfect subject to work on, there is one person who no one likes, a assassin apart of the thief's guild, he has a book, his knifes and a mask, but that's it. I wonder if I should have him?
END OF PART ONE

quick sierra
#

i see you have a thing for necromancers

cedar vale

A Necromancer's observation of the Prison Part 2
DAY 3
After a few days, I realize that the prison is starting to fill up with dark magic, and it seems to affecting the people here, including me...
DAY 4
I found out why the warden is gone, she fled to the dwarves mines, before being being shredded by a DM-200, sad, she would have made a perfect subject. But now we got bigger problems, the dark magic is starting to effect us, the thief's here are just messing with people left and right, there is even some thief's going to the sewers then disappearing. I wonder why this is happening

The Other Ritual

this text seems as if written by an unsure hand, it is barely readable and contains a number of errors
Erc has got given to that brute, sad to see him leave. Efeil and Eclec are still out there but Ghe and Gzer want them on the altar. I see him go on that day, I cant remember the brute now.

The flies and spiders have angered me after that problem, it has gotten more dangerous since the evil has heightened. The shamans are gotten scared by the living rock, they have started smoking us.

Will say more soon

dry hare
#

yeah that's what I meant

You have heard of it don't you?, the Amulet of Yendor.
The Amulet of Yendor is the most powerful artifact known to human and dwarven kind, it's shimmering crystal contain incredible and wondrous power.
How did it all started? many years ago, one of the highest wizards in dwarven court boasted that he had discovered The Amulet, Before the city gates were barred and nobody heard from the dwarves again, the Dwarven civilization cut off all the contact, left only mysteries behind.
I.. I've never believed it. but i discovered what so-called Amulet wasn't a myth,
How do i know?, well... i have seen it, the dungeon.
Many heroes have ventured into the dungeon. most have never been heard again, a few of them have came back with wealth. but nobody has ever obtained the Amulet.
It is said an ancient evil lurks in the depth, even now dark energy radiates from below since long ago... making its way up into the city!
And.. how did it happens? question for another time perhaps, now i carry the cloak and dagger up my sleeves, it's time to start my own adventure!

#

yeah i do this out of boredom, lol

#

sorry if there's might typing error or smth liek that, English is my second languagkkr
