Destiny's Zone Description Room~
Builder : Destiny
Zone : 86 Duke Kalithorn's Keep
Began :
Player Level : 3-14
Rooms : 45
Mobs : 14
Objects : 14
Shops : 0
Triggers : 0
Plot : This will be the Keep of Grand Duke Kalithorn (it can be renamed
to fit into the mud..it was just something I came up with) a mercenary
turned politician/good guy after his wife was kidnapped by bandits. The Duke
swore that he would not rest until his wife was found and the bandits
punished.so he is 'haunting' (for lack of a better word) the Keep.
Links : 60s, 01w
Notes : Within a forest or perhaps a little set back from a main road.
Neutral to slightly evil. Most of the mobs would be rats, bats and sprites
which would be the evil aligned mobs. Kalithorn and his undead guards and
sentinels would be of neutral align.
Zone 86 was linked to the following zones:
34 Arctic Zone at 8601 (west ) ---> 4396

A Dirt Road~
The trees part just north revealing an even smaller dirt road. The road
casually winds up the steep hill to a dark appearing Keep atop the hill.
Ravens call from the nearby trees and smoke can be seen to the north. While a
small muddy trail leads off to the west.

A Dirt Road~
The small dirt path ends at the rusty remains of a once gilded fence. The
gates are half buried in the dust of the path and small vines have overtaken
the spokes. The vines have twined themselves tightly but do not hinder
movement to the north. The path also curves to the east and fades as it slopes
down the steep hill.

Stairway~
A magnificent stairway leads upwards into the darkness of the keep here.
The marble is scratched and pockmarked with age but the stairs seem relatively
safe. The walls along the staircase are unevenly covered with gaudy striped
wallpaper and the bannister is unsteady. The hallway runs south from here and
a large dining room is to the east.

Alcove~
A huge, full-length mirror once hung from this crumbled alcove wall. An
enormous crack runs diagonally from the top left corner downwards to the bottom
right corner, strangely doubling every image. Along the gaudy golden frame
there are many, many cracks and dents and the bottom left forner of the mirror
has been broken off. The wall paper had long ago cracked and peeled off the
western wall, but the eastern wall still holds a small wooden shelf with a few
cobweb covered books.

a long, slippery flight of badly made stairs. Rats squeal somewhere far below,
echoing hollowly in the empty space between.

tart and hangs in the air like a miasma. The walls are uneven and have a rough

This room was once the grand ballroom but now it is strewn with the remains
of broken glass and wooden furniture. The ceiling and walls are covered with
cobwebs and flaking paint. A hardwood table stands against the eastern wall
with a massive candelabra at its center it, too, is tangled with cobwebs.
There is a bland looking door to the east and an open archway to the north.

gate is barely visible. The wrought iron railing prevents its occupants from

A Dirt Road~
The woods around you consists mostly of pine and small fir. Small animals
can be heard, but not seen, scurrying away as you intrude upon their home.
The path is beginning to fade and recede back into the forest.

Western Wing~
The floorboards creak and groan dangerously underfoot. The splintering of
wood and the muffled sqeaks of rats and other unsavory creatures can be heard
to the west. Unfortunetly, the walls have caved in to the north and south.
To the west the floor slopes sharply downward into the darkness.
