Detta's [Frozen Castle] Description Room~
|
|
|
|
@BTheme:@n The cliche fantasy castle with a curse. Am hoping to build a big
|
|
stone fortress that is all frozen in ice, complete with its occupants.
|
|
There will probably be a couple big specially-triggered mobs to defeat and some
|
|
wandering salespeople around the permiter selling the spoils from the castle.
|
|
There will be a couple secrets within the zone, and a tragic tale to uncover
|
|
if the player is so inclined ;).
|
|
|
|
@GPlayers:@n Meant to be for players about level 15 to 20, with some of the
|
|
perimeter mobs being lower level, and ones deeper and higher within the castle
|
|
of higher level. Primarily an evil zone.
|
|
|
|
@RLocation:@n The castle is set in the middle of a forest with a river running
|
|
through it.
|
|
Note that Indoor flags are deliberately set on outdoor rooms as the
|
|
zone has its own trigger-run weather messages.
|
|
|
|
@MSecrets:@n None yet, but there will be ;). Will keep posted.
|
|
|
|
@CNote:@n If you have any suggestions, spot any typos, bugs, or
|
|
weirdnesses, please mudmail me - Detta. :-) All input appreciated!
|
|
You can also email me at detta@@builderacademy.net
|
|
East takes you through the other zones I have built here.
|
|
Down takes you to the starting room of this zone.

A Luminous Path~
|
|
Startlingly white compared to the rest of the dark surroundings, this shining
|
|
path flows like a glowing stream to a massive building of stone on the northern
|
|
horizon. Southward it winds deeper into the silent grasp of the trees, its path
|
|
illuminating the forest gently like a ray of moonlight.

The White Drawbridge~
|
|
This ancient drawbridge lies in the lowered position, covered with layers of
|
|
fluffy white snow that swirl restlessly about. A cool wind bites at the air,
|
|
whipping against the stone blocks of the surrounding castle like an angry ghost,
|
|
beating with futility upon the unyielding fortress walls.

A Frozen Portcullis~
|
|
A jagged toothy gate hangs suspended from the southern part of the ceiling,
|
|
frozen in place and coated with layers of smooth glassy ice. Spikes hang
|
|
menacingly down, formed from the stalactites of slowly dripping water, every now
|
|
and again trembling slightly with the rumbling of thunder outside.

Stalagmitic Armoury~
|
|
Various pieces of armour and weaponry lie embedded in the glassy walls, the
|
|
metal and ice reflecting light from all around. Frozen stalagmites protrude
|
|
menacingly from the floor, formed from the dripping of hanging icicles which
|
|
have since fallen and shattered, leaving tiny shards sprinkled throughout the
|
|
room.

Hall of Legends~
|
|
Coloured murals adorn either side of this lengthy hall, their depictions
|
|
those of fierce battles and strong warriors standing victorious over fallen foe.
|
|
Amongst the faded illustrations are the likenesses of dragons as well as men,
|
|
fighting together against some common enemy. Once undoubtedly bright and
|
|
glorious, the carefully crafted representations are now dull and worn, coated
|
|
with spidery-thin strands of frost and snow, everything glazed and foggy as if
|
|
part of some dream world.

Lords' Chamber~
|
|
Decorated with all the noblest of tapestries and furnishings, this room is
|
|
sombre and dreary in feel. All is covered in a sheen of white and frozen
|
|
moisture, the effect being one of almost timeless age. Various archaic board
|
|
games and glasses of drink lie sculpted in place, cocooned within the same icy
|
|
curse as the inhabitants themselves.

A Cold Throneroom~
|
|
The air hangs damp and chill, heaving softly and whispering as with the
|
|
breathing of lingering spirits. The towering stone walls and smooth white
|
|
marble floor can be seen to have given the place a cold regal air, long before
|
|
its wintery fate. Now only wisps of snow flicker here and there like tendrils
|
|
of mist, all else still and undisturbed.

A Frosty Dining Hall~
|
|
Stretching far to the west, this lengthy corridor is filled with a myriad of
|
|
dancing coloured lights from some nearby source. The forlorn grey of the
|
|
surroundings seems almost alive with the movement, flickering here and there as
|
|
though lit with hundreds of tiny candles, each shimmering with a different hue
|
|
of the rainbow.

A Frosty Dining Hall~
|
|
A high gilded ceiling sparkles with prisms of light from a dazzling
|
|
chandelier. Emptied of candles, only the shards of crystal and glass remain,
|
|
each dangling from delicate silver chains and shivering slightly every time the
|
|
castle reverberates with thunder, tinkling lightly in a fragile contrast to the
|
|
ominous booms, flooding the lengthy hall with a variety of speckled colours.

A Glacial Music Room~
|
|
Bitterly cold, all that remains of melody in this room is the delicate
|
|
chiming of ice crystals hitting the floor, and the mournful moan of a chill wind
|
|
that stirs the atmosphere. Miniscule sculpted snowflakes swirl restlessly about
|
|
the place, making the air sparkle with thousands of frozen particles.

Ladies' Chamber~
|
|
A cool blue hue illuminates this room, every surface slick and shiny with icy
|
|
wetness. Elegant chairs stand about, coatings of fluffy snow giving the
|
|
impression they are padded with cotton wool. A desolate fireplace decorates the
|
|
western wall, long frosted over and wailing eerily with every movement of the
|
|
outside wind. Within its recesses, clumps of coal sit never to be used, their
|
|
dark surfaces speckled with snow as if they were powdered chocolates.

Hall of Forgotten Arts~
|
|
The art of old magics and illusions seems to be the focus of this room's
|
|
adornments. Strange light flickers upon the walls and ceiling from tiny green
|
|
candles that line the upper border, and yet strangely, the coating of ice and
|
|
snow shows no sign of melting. Grim eyes watch over the place from ancient
|
|
tapestries that line either side of the hall, their icy glazed expressions
|
|
seeming every now and again to shift in the shadows.

Fissured Gallery~
|
|
Some incredible heat has caused this room to completely splinter, several
|
|
large spidery cracks sapnning the surfaces of the frozen stone walls and leaving
|
|
a large crevass splitting its way along the floor. A few masterful paintings
|
|
remain hung here, but many been smashed upon the floor, pieces of broken silver
|
|
and glass frames mingling with the shards of ice.

Made from a dark, glassy mineral, this elegant stair curves eastward, meeting

shadow, its smooth surface covered with an intricate webwork of frost, giving it
|

the appearance of white-veined marble.

Sapphire and azure lend their regal blue hue to the surroundings, contrasting
|

with the pure whiteness of the blanketing snow and creamy irridescent opals that
|
|
line the length of the walls.

Sphalerite Stair~
|
|
Black and ominous, a tall metallic stair slopes gracefully westward, joining

Dark and metallic, the whole structure shimmers with tiny ice crystals,
|
|
twinkling like a night sky full of shining stars.

Softly drifting flakes of snow cover every surface in this stretching

corridor. Beneath the layer of almost unblemished white glimpses of the
|
|
original dark red carpeting can be seen, giving the illusion that the floor is
|
|
stained with pools of spilt blood. All around, images of fallen heroes glorify
|
|
the walls, misted with a fine coat of ice that glazes the eyes of the watchful
|
|
dead.

presence of the stony walls and the dark brooding tones of the wooden beams high
|
|
above. An immense ceiling slopes up toward the east, illumination flooding the
|
|
corridor from the peak of its height.

Snowy Courtyard~
|
|
Silent, and seemingly undisturbed, this entire courtyard is covered in a

thick blanket of pure unblemished snow. The skeletal branches of long dead
|
|
trees reach wearily overhead, as if to catch the delicate snowflakes that
|
|
flutter continuously down.

Fountain of Light~
|
|
A majestic fountain has been sculpted from a spiral of transluscent sparkling
|
|
admantine, rising from the very center of the snow-covered grounds. The water
|
|
that once spilled freely from its pinnacle has frozen solid in place, leaving
|
|
only shimmering cascades of light and ice, swooping and curving as if part of
|
|
the sculputre itself, reflecting the wintry surroundings and filling the place
|
|
with radiance.

Snowy Courtyard~
|
|
Serene and hushed, only the restless whispering of long dead leaves stirs the
|
|
respectful silence that preserves this place. A smooth layer of glistening
|
|
white snow covers everything as if thick cream had been poured over the entire
|
|
yard, silver grasses protruding from the shadowed corners.

A Forsaken Statuette~
|
|
Sparkling citrine crystals cast a slight yellowish hue over the surrounding
|
|
snow, their fragile beauty decorating the base of a curving amber sculpture that
|
|
fills this corner of the courtyard. Meant to represent air, one of the four
|
|
locally worshipped elements, this artwork has no real concrete shape, abstract
|
|
and formless in an intriguingly beautiful way.

A Forsaken Statuette~
|
|
Shimmering azurite, and the royal blue of sapphires decorate this prominent
|
|
sculpture. Towering proudly above the blanched snow and ice of the courtyard,
|
|
this artwork almost resembles a giant wave. A tribute to water, one of the four
|
|
locally worshipped elements, a light coating of snowflakes has dulled it
|
|
considerably, subtle patterns of silver frost weaving their way across its
|
|
smooth surface.

A Smashed Statuette~
|
|
An awesome sculpture once stood here, as evidenced by the smatterings of ruby
|
|
and red beryl that still adorn the ground like drops of blood. A round metal
|
|
base stands in the midst of the snow, upon which the artwork would have once
|
|
stood, apparently a tribute to one of the four locally worshipped elements.
|
|
Completely destroyed now, only the tiniest scarlet gems remain frozen in the
|
|
surrounding ice, evidence of the desecrated statue that once stood proudly here.

A Forsaken Statuette~
|
|
Smooth rocks of green malachite, and expertly cut emeralds make up the razor
|

lines and geometric shapes of this large regal sculpture. Fashioned as a
|
|
tribute to earth and soil, one of the four locally worshipped elements, this
|
|
artwork is still stunning despite the slight icy cracks that marr its surface
|
|
like pale scars.

and snow.

from the side, webbed with frost and ancient cobwebs, evidence of its neglect
|
|
for many years.

|

Sleek and dark as frozen oil, a tall stair swoops gracefully to the icy floor

snow that coat the rest of the surroundings. A tiny tinkling sound echoes
|
|
throughout the place, as small ice shards crack and shatter with the booms of
|
|
outside thunder.

Freezing Balcony~
|
|
Glassy and dangerous, the peril of remaining long on this high balcony is
|
|
increased further by the angry winds that whip and howl against it, physical
|
|
forces lashing at the castle as if an army of ghosts were battering to get in.
|
|
The years of constant abuse are evidenced on the weary stone walls, which
|
|
although sturdy, are cracked and broken in several places. Far in the distance,
|
|
a jagged mountain blazes with fire and smoke, a red glow facing the castle as if
|
|
it were being watched.

rhythmic sound of murmuring fills the room, as if ghosts still chanted their
|

prayers here.

suspended from the ceiling like glittering fangs, a cold feel of menace

emanating from the very structure of the castle, as if it were laying

deliberately and deceptively motionless.

Smooth and soft with layers of delicate puffy snow, this room looks as though

it has been vacant for many years, an unnatural stillness suffocating the air,
|
|
and the unblemished surfaces of snowflakes and dust betraying a long
|
|
abandonment. A few indiscernible pieces of furniture lie formless and frozen
|
|
beneath the ice, and what once must have been magnificent tapestries hang stiff
|
|
and glazed against the walls, watching forlornly over the place. A wooden door
|

last flickering embers of a slow dying fire.

Although whitewashed with snow, this room smells earthy and fresh, as if it

herb linger subtly in the air, mixed with animal musks. Hunter's trophies line

Hall of Stalactites~

High above the floor, a long ceiling stretches northward, curving gently

|
smooth design is strangely contrasted by the collection of sharp spikes that
|
|
hang menacingly, quivering every now and again as if about to drop.

An Arctic Aumbry~
|
|
Ancient prayers murmur softly in the echoing groans of this room, wooden
|
|
beams creaking with age and the weight of falling snow. Icicles hang
|
|
tremulously from various cracks in the ceiling, drops of water dangling like
|
|
tears from their frozen tips, suspended in time.

Crystalline Chamber of the Princess~
|
|
Smooth cascades of frozen water flow over every surface in this room, caught
|

motionless and sparkling for indefinite time. Cool blue shadows shift in the
|

darker recesses, reflective surfaces of ice throwing any speck of light into a
|
|
thousand different dancing shards.

Wintry Privy~
|
|
A perpetual winter lingers here, soft white snowflakes twirling lazily in the

air, mingling with sparkles of stirring dust. Against the western side of the
|
|
wall, low shelving holds a covered privy. Fortunately, the murky water splashed
|
|
around it has long since frozen.

A Glassy Guestroom~
|
|
Elegant and airy, this large room has been decorated with crystal and silver
|
|
birch. The pale wood has been used to frame the room and fashion its
|
|
furnishings, made even brighter by a soft carpetting of snow. Slender
|
|
candle-holders reach from the walls, offering warmth that no longer exists.

A Bitterly Cold Privy~
|
|
Of modest size, this room may have once felt cozy, its multiple candles and
|
|
warm hues of wood overcome with thick blankets of snow. Despite its clean
|
|
apperance, an unpleasant smell wafts about the place. This seems to emanate
|
|
more strongly from a square block sitting against the eastern wall, a thick
|
|
frozen board covering the hole on top of it.

Dank and dreary, the stones here creak as if weighed down with an unbearable

|
|
and a frozen spider hangs forlornly in the gloom, casting an eerie shadow
|
|
against the wall.

A Frozen Kitchen~
|
|
Incandescent ice coats everything in this kitchen with a glossy shine, each
|

crystalline surface twinkling blue and silver. From the ceiling, large metal
|
|
hooks hang ominously, probably once hung with spices and meats, now only cruel
|
|
and glinting in the cold silence.

wide wooden shelving, polished and gleaming. A few unwashed pieces lie
|
|
abandoned in the corner, frozen pieces of food stuck forever in place.

Lined with shelves and cobwebs, this large pantry is filled with all kinds of

cheeses silver-shrouded and sparkling. Onions and garlic hang frozen from the
|
|
ceiling, and on the floor are piled turnips and potatoes.

Eerie and silent, this large room is coated all around with ice, as if a

gleaming and slippery, a large chopping counter extending from here into the
|
|
east, its partially-chopped contents long since buried in snow.

A Frozen Kitchen~

Brutally cold, the air here is filled with a moist fog, swirling about the
|
|
place as if stirred by ghosts. A cold light fills the place, every icy surface
|
|
giving off a lustrous hue, as if lit by some strange magic. A long chopping
|
|
counter extends from this room into the west, shrouded with snow and dust.

A strange wind whips about this storage room, clinking and clanging against

|
|
Powdered butts of beer stand against the walls, shrouded in deep layers of snow,
|
|
and scattered shards of glass lie sprinkled across the floor, along with frozen
|
|
droplets of wine.

a fine sheen of dust, threads of spider webbing drifting like living tendrils
|

from the walls.

The Servants' Lounge~
|
|
This room appears to have been quite cozy at one point, dark hues of wood and
|
|
animal furs generously adorning the place. The wood however, has become
|
|
silver-veined with frost, overhead rafters hung with glittering stalactites.
|
|
The furs that would have once been soft and warm, are frozen brittle, each fine
|
|
hair a needle of ice.

|

The resting place of the bards and poets, this room is filled with musical

instruments and basic props. A fine smattering of hay carpets the area, though

|
the arctic temperature has frozen it, making it seem as if the floor was
|
|
overlaid with sparkling gold. Old scrolls and storybooks lie piled against the
|
|
walls, their contents forever sealed in ice.

|
|
Various knitting and sewing needles lie strewn about, glistening brightly
|
|
amongst splinters of ice.

A Snowed-in Roasting Pit~
|
|
Although bitterly cold now, this room shows all the signs of having once been
|
|
filled with blasting heat. Smoke and soot have been preserved in the ice-coated
|
|
walls, making every surface black and glossy as ink. A large firepit lies
|
|
abandoned to snow and ash, an unidentifiable carcass still suspended on a spit
|
|
above it.

Ancient stone creaks and groans under the weight of the castle, the strain of

the fissures, further compromising the strength of these corridors, a low
|
|
painful moan echoing down its length.

shimmering down the length of the corridor, filling the place with fragile

incandescent light.

Hushed and dreary, this corridor flickers subtly as if lit with blue fire,

Whispering echoes travel down the length of this tunnel, stirring the few tufts
|
|
of plant life that grow amongst the cracked stone, cobwebs fluttering forlornly.

hands across the white carpetted snow.

rays of prismic colour washing over the walls.

Keeper of the Dungeon~
|
|
This granite room glowers with a strange menace, as if an evil presence
|
|
watched over it from the shadows. Dark wood, and cruel glinting metal make up

the furnishings, even darker shadows flickering from some unnatural light
|

source. The air is chill, but colder than one would expect from mere ice and
|

snow.

tinkling as it shatters on the floor.

corner, as if it were bathed in the shadow of some unseen entity. A faint
|

breeze rustles uneasily around the walls, hushing and whispering through the
|
|
crevasses.

men, complaining at the weight and bitter cold.

translucent puddles of ice, and specks of dust sparkle amongst the darkness like
|
|
tiny stars in an ocean of cold, black hopelessness.

through here, lost to torture and grief.

Dungeon of Tears~
|
|
Sorrow weighs heavy in the air, low despairing moans rumbling through the
|
|
stone, and a biting chill permeates the place. Frozen icicles hang jagged from
|
|
the ceiling, twinkling droplets dangling from their tips like everlasting tears.
|
|
Subtle shudders rack the walls and floor every now and again, as if the place
|
|
itself were weeping.

A Haunted Prison Cell~
|
|
Soft whispering voices waft through the air here, stirring shadows and
|
|
glimmers of light that writhe upon the icy walls as if trying to escape.
|
|
Gentle breezes shift unnaturally in the near silence, as if ancient ghosts were
|
|
still breathing in the darkness, or pacing away the time.

Lower Part of the Northeast Stair~
|
|
The deepest part of a long winding stair, the atmosphere here is especially
|
|
heavy, and the air numbingly cold. Low creaks and groans echo overhead, as if
|
|
someone were perpetually walking up and down. Delicate tendrils of webbing
|
|
flutter from the walls, grasping at anything that passes.

The Oubliette~
|
|
Cramped and dark, this room is a place where one could pass out of all
|
|
memory. It appears to be nothing more than a chasm in the earth, a yawning
|
|
grave for the living. Only damp, frozen soil closes in around, and above narrow
|
|
iron grating offers the only glimpse of light.

Underground Passage~
|
|
Damp and dank with mildew, a thick mouldy smell clings to every surface of
|
|
this miserable tunnel. Sprouts of blue and green fungus blossom from the ice,
|
|
continuing to thrive despite the biting chill. The ground is dark with dirt and
|
|
dust that has muddied, frozen into black slush.

The Well-House~
|
|
This flimsy wooden shed creaks as the winds buffet it, swaying slightly from
|
|
side to side in the perpetual storm. A deep well is buried in the ground,
|
|
surrounded with a low stone wall. Within, the water has turned mostly to ice,
|
|
but a shadowy stirring motion can still be seen beneath, as if something were
|
|
moving in those dark waters.

Dove-Cote~
|
|
A wirey cage stands hung with trembling cobwebs and icicles. Inside,
|
|
clusters of birds sit huddled together as if for warmth, although they have
|
|
already been frozen solid. Their glazed eyes are sorrowful and knowing, as if
|
|
they have never accepted their fate.

High in a Castle Tower~
|
|
This circular stone tower creaks and groans wearily, seeming almost to sway
|
|
as the winds buffet it violently from outside. A small oval window offers a
|
|
bleak view over the wintry terrain, and overhead, tendrils of cobweb hang from a
|
|
long-abandoned hatch.

On Top of the Castle~
|
|
This tower feels cold and dreary, unprotected from the elements that howl
|
|
around the castle. Continuous storms rage and clash overhead, casting the stone
|
|
here in alternating hues of black and silver. The wind wails loudly, making its
|
|
presence unescapable as it whips frantically around.
