THE TOWER OF ZENOPUS 1  \nBACKGROUND FOR REFEREE & PLAYERS  \nZenopus was a mighty mage  \nWho learned the lore of a lost age . Tunnels he built and dungeons deep And gold he claimed to covet and keep, Until the night his Doom befell And bore his soul to horrid Hell .  \nFrom then till now his halls lie bare And treasure waits for those who dare  \n— old song  \nBackground  \nOne hundred years ago, the sorcerer Zenopus built a tower on the low hills overlooking Portown . The tower was close to the sea cliffs west of the town and, appropriately, next door to the graveyard . Rumour has it that the magician made extensive cellars and tunnels underneath the tower . The town is located on the ruins of a much older city destroyed during the GodWars and Zenopus was said to excavate in his cellars in search of ancient treasures .  \nFifty years ago, on a cold wintry night, the wizard's tower was suddenly engulfed in green flame . Several of his human servants escaped the holocaust, saying their master had been destroyed by some powerful force he had unleashed in the depths of the tower .  \nNeedless to say the tower stood vacant for a while after this, but then the neighbours and the night watchmen complained that ghostly blue lights appeared in the windows at night, that ghastly screams could be heard emanating from the tower at all hours, and goblin figures could be seen dancing on the tower roof in the moonlight . Finally the authorities hada catapult rolled through the streets of the town and the tower was battered to rubble . This stopped the hauntings but the townsfolk continue to shun the ruins . The entrance to the old dungeons can be easily located as a flight of broad stone steps leading down into darkness, but the few adventurous souls who hove descended into crypts below the ruin have either reported only empty stone corridors or have failed to return at all .  \nOther magic-users have moved into the town but the site of the old tower remains abandoned . Whispered tales are told of fabulous treasure and unspeakable monsters in the underground passages below the hilltop, and the story tellers are always careful to point out that the reputed dungeons lie in close proximity to the foundations of the older, pre-human city, to the graveyard, and to the sea .  \nThe Hook  \nThe stairway from the surface leads 25 feet straight down and ends in the corridor marked START on the Referee’smap .  \nPortown  \nPortown is a small but busy city linking the caravan routes from the south to the merchant ships that dare the pirate-infested waters of the Northern Sea . Humans and non-humans from all over the globe meet here . At the Green Dragon Inn, the players of the game gather their characters for an assault on the fabulous passages beneath the ruined Wizard's tower .  \nRumours (d8)   \n1. The Doom of Zenopus still haunts the tunnels and cannot be killed (misleading)  \n2. The ghost of Zenopus haunts the underground tunnels (false)  \n3. Evil cultists meet underground to celebrate hideous rituals (false)  \n4. Local criminals use the tunnels to hide their ill-gotten gains ( true)  \n5. Lemunda the Lovely, daughter of the local lord, is missing ( true)  \n6. Zenopus built the tunnels as amaze to imprison a demon (false)  \n7. Zenopus’ tunnels connect to the ancient cemetery ( true)  \n8. Brubo the Hooded is a Constable, employed by the Portown authorities to keep trespassers out of the dungeon ( true)  \nNot for resale.
