Tooltrumpets (Quasqueton) - 562 Early Summer by Indricotherium

Map Description:

My first 'megaproject'. Essentially I wanted to recreate the dungeon of Quasqueton from D&D module B1 - Into the Unknown.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Search_of_the_Unknown

I used the following method to translate the map into D&D terms:
For 10' section do 3x3 excavations separated by single rows and knock out as needed like so:
xxxxxxxxx
x...x...x..
x...x...x..
x...x...x..
xxxxxxxxx
x...x...x..

Normal doors are wooden. Secret doors are made from the same rock or metal as the wall they are set into.

The Big Plan was to create the dungeon just as it is in the module, abandoned and all, and have my dwarfs living in a second unconnected fortress deeper underground. I'm not quite there yet. While the dungeon is mostly done (carved out but lots of little details remain) it is still inhabited by the dwarfs.

Points of Interest

Δ 163. Captain of the Guard's Room/Jail
In the module the henchman of Roghan lived here, so here's where I put the Guard Captain. The dungeon contains no cells or jail, so I installed chains here for justice.

The miasma is blocking the results of the latest jail riot where a Speardwarf stabbed a metalworker to death who was bringing them water. Then a Marksdwarf chained 3 chains over put three bolts into the Speardwarf, then they broke their chain and tried to escape and were, in turn, killed by the Captain of the Guard. Yeah... bit of a tantrum spiral going on. You may notice other dwarfen and @ bodies scattered about. - Indricotherium
Δ 163. Entryway
This is the tunnel that leads to the dungeon entrance. I still need to carve the hillside away to expose the tunnel rather than have the staircase that's there. The traps will need to go as well. - Indricotherium
Δ 163. Spiral Catacombs
This pointless spiral is listed in the module as being left the way it was 'for future development'. That makes no sense to me. In any case, I decided to use it for tombs where the coffin that is dead center is the tomb for the Duchess.

We need more coffins though, a lot more. - Indricotherium
Δ 163. The Duchess's Bedroom
In the module, Roghan's room. As I wanted to use the dungeon the way it was designed, this then became the Fortress's leader's bedroom. - Indricotherium
Δ 163. The Hall of Pools
Only a few pools have been filled so far, only one will remain dry. Though I can't fill them with the magical brews listed in the module that various layers of blood, vomit, mud and other stuff adds a certain atmosphere to them. The Mayor's room is off of this room as it is listed in the module as being the Advisor's Chamber. The blood in the room is from the prior mayor - who went berserk. - Indricotherium
Δ 163. The Overgrown Gardens
This large, yet dead ended room, is the site of the crazy mushroom forest featured on the covers of the module. I haven't finished muddying every part of the floor but most of it is and now that I hit the caverns (in the new fortress unattached to the dungeon) cave flora is starting to sprout right on schedule.

I also have my farm for the fort in the corner there. - Indricotherium
Δ 163. Throne, Worhship and Trophy Rooms
Here is the Throne Room of the dungeon with the white throne being Rootspines the artifact camel bone throne. I didn't create the dais that exists in the dungeon due to it being very short - I plan on laying down a floor to indicate where the dais is. The fort's original trade depot was here but has now been deconstructed spilling various goods to the floor.

The Worship Room is the room with the statue and lever in it. The lever controls the cages filled with war dogs, bears and assorted large cats in the entryway. The statue is described in the module as being demonic. I got a finely designed statue of forgotten beasts in a batch I had made so that one is mounted here.

Above you see the Trophy Room. I don't have access to the sorts of things that decorate the dungeon in the module so instead here are displayed two giants, and ettin and a cyclops who came visiting in the forts early years, along with a slew of goblins. The craftsdwarf workshop is where we cranked out mugs after mug for early tradegoods, you can see the jewelers workshops that encrusted them down and to the left.

Also in this area are two victims of the ongoing tantrum spiral. - Indricotherium
Δ 159. The Treaure Room
This chamber is empty in the module except for two magical statues of berserkers that come to life and attack you when you step inside, maybe touch something, I forget. I've got two caged trolls there and plan on hooking up pressure plates to enable their release. I'm also planning on loading the place up with gold bars and gems and whatnot. - Indricotherium
