40x30 Battlemap - Underdark Fungal Village
 |
Underdark Fungal Village
Glowing fungi line the sides of this underdark gorge¸ into which a village has been built. Wooden walkways and lookouts span the darkness¸ clinging to stone pillars or the hollowed-out cliffs in which living quarters have been built.
Twisting stone tunnels lead to rooms filled with strange alchemical equipment¸ seer's orbs and bookshelves full of esoteric secrets. Other tunnels lead to living quarters¸ a tavern full of tables¸ food and good ale as well as storage areas.
Adventure Seed
While traveling through the Underdark¸ you are kidnapped by dark dwarves. You wake up in a small¸ stone cell. Everyone is stripped of their possessions¸ but left with their underclothes-all except one party member¸ who is completely naked.
An old green dwarf is locked in there with you. He mumbles to himself constantly and pokes you with a stick if you come too close. If you try to talk to him he'll babble gibberish (something about seagulls)¸ but will get aggressive if you try to take his stick.
The dark dwarves take each of you away one by one¸ walking you up thin stone corridors and wooden walkways overlooking a bottomless chasm filled with glowing mushrooms. When you arrive at a large alchemist's station¸ they throw a handful of powder in your face¸ before returning you to your cell.
Everyone's powder had different colors¸ and within a couple of hours their effects begin to show:
- One party member is relaxed and happy; carefree.
- Another is unable to stop laughing. Everything is hilarious¸ no matter how mundane.
- Someone else sees eyes watching him at the corner of his vision¸ but whenever he turns to see¸ they're gone.
- One adventurer is absolutely fine¸ except he keeps talking to someone called Pawl (who clearly isn't there).
- Yet another has had their mind opened to the fourth dimension¸ and now knows with utter certainty that his free will is an illusion. An interdimensional being is controlling their every move...
- Lastly¸ someone's accent has been inexplicably changed to a foreign one.
WHAT'S HAPPENING? The Duergar live in this Underdark settlement¸ harvesting the glowing mushrooms and processing them into a powdered drug that they then traffic. They have tested new drugs on you¸ by mixing novel combinations of substances in with the powdered mushrooms.
If you don't do something¸ they might keep you there forever; testing new substances on you until your mind breaks¸ like the old green dwarf's-and perhaps¸ even then¸ they'll continue to run tests with the more... deadly substances.
