A Dark Storage Room in the Troglodyte Caves
This dark storage room is used to store whatever wares are acquired on
the surface raids. The troglodytes are often packrats, taking and storing
almost anything. This room is filled with boxes and barrels, all used to store
any goods they got back to their lair. The room smells bad because quite often
the troglodytes forget about what they have amassed and it rots. The floor is
covered with scraps of food and various other trinkets. No doors are needed in
the clan because there is no way to really hide anything. Everyone shares here
unless its something very nice. In that case it would go to the chieftain.
There is usually someone here to make sure that everything is kept in order.
One may travel east to leave this dark storage room.

The troglodyte caves continue here winding through the cold black stone.
The air here is less musty and dirty, as if the floor and walls have been kept
clean from debris and filth. The walls have a little more of a finished look
to them, as if the natural stone has been mined away to widen the corridor.
The ceiling above is rough and uneven, large recessions in the stone in places
that provide a good hiding nook filled with shadows. The floor is rahter well
maintained as well and is quite smooth. The sounds of chanting and muffled
shouts is evident, as if something of a congregation seems to be forming some
where in the dark. The air here has some movement, although this far into the
troglodyte complex, any air movement is likely to be man-made instead of the
naturally forming currents of the surface. The darkness is pervasive and feels
unnatural, as if lurkers in the dark await the chance to show themselves. One

The musty smell in this section of the troglodyte cave system is almost
unbearable. The creatures that claim these caves are the troglodytes, but a
more deadly being can be found here. The troglodyte people carry with them a
virus that is usually deadly to those who breath the air of the outside world.
The disease is a big problem for any outsiders that walk these caverns, but its
not as if many outsiders ever visit this place. These caverns have remained
secure and protected by the troglodyte people since they originally inhabited
these caves several hundred years earlier. The walls here have a temporary
look to them, as if the work is not yet finished. The ground here is littered
with bits of chipped stone and larger pieces of roughly cut stones. One may

and cast ominous shadows, obvious danger regions and concealing hiding places.
Long and jagged scars have been cut into the stone, most likely from a wicked
battle. The ceiling here is stained with a thick layer of soot from a long
since extinguised fire. There is a sense here of being watched, as if perhaps
the stone itself can hear and see invaders. The cold stone of the troglodyte
caverns is unyielding and constant, a being from an age long since past. There

The dark and gloomy caves of the troglodyte people continue here as they
wind through the cold stone. The stone here seems to vibrate, almost hum as
deep underground forces make such movement possible. There are large cracks
and holes in the stone walls and floor, most likely ancient as a great amount
of dust is visible in some of the holes. There are several dark recesses in
the walls, places perfect for ambush or hiding. There are footprints in the
dust, in fact a good deal of traffic is evident in this dusty tunnel. The air
is stale and not very fresh, but as compared to some of the previous tunnels
toward the entrance of the cave, this troglodyte tunnel is a flowerbed. The
floor is covered with small bone fragments and food scraps, leavings of the
troglodyte warriors that frequent this tunnel system. One may travel east or

to level out and smooth them. The ceiling remains in its natural state with
tiny stalactites protruding downward like sharp fangs. The floor is littered
with various sizes of bones, most of which appear to be rather small. The
troglodyte people are the most feared creatures of the deep for the human
populations surrounding this area. The troglodyte raids of human villages is

This narrow landing is the beginning of a highly secret and closely

not a naturally formed prepice. There is a long and winding set of stairs that
leads down into a lower level of the troglodyte cave complex connected to the
landing. The air here is calm and undisturbed, smelling musty and stale. The
ceiling of this small room is many yards above, beyond the range of torches or
other forms of man-made light. This room is the entrance to a highly guarded
series of tunnels, although the immediate purpose is not readily evident. The
tunnel here is not the naturally forming and twisting tunnels of the previous
tunnels in this system. These walls are smooth and worked with fine masonry
and stone working tools. This is the entrance to the lowest layer of the cave

The troglodyte caves are a harsh environment, filled with constant danger,
impending doom, and lurking evils. The deadly creatures that live in these
dark tunnels are hunters of the night, and are quite proficient in warfare.
The tunnel floor is rough and uneven, littered with many small bones and pieces
of rotten flesh. The walls here are filled with shadowy alcoves, providing
hiding and ambush places ideal for this dark cave system. The troglodyte race
is a rare and infrequent visitor to the surface of this realm, yet those of the

In the Dark Troglodyte Caves Filled With Water
This section of the troglodyte caves is half filled with water. The black
water is very near freezing temperature in a normal setting, but this far below
the surface the water has different properties. The amount of salt and mineral
content in the water makes its freezing point much lower than surface water.
The tunnel here is tight and hard to maneuver in, made even more difficult by
the amount of water resting on the floor. The air here is very cold and hard
to breath. The water itself is very dirty, filled with the disgusting leavings
of the troglodyte people. Essentially this water filled tunnel is one large,
community latrine. The creatures that dwell here have to dispose of their
waste somewhere. One may travel up or south from this point in the caves of
the troglodytes.

In the Dark Troglodyte Caves Filled With Water
This tight passageway is filled with the filth and remains of the creatures
that live in these caverns. The water is murky and quite cold. The water is
stagnant and does not move, allowing the filth and murk to settle to the bottom
of the passage. The troglodyte people have no other way to dispose of their
waste, so this passage is filled with their filth. The tunnel is completely
filled with the murky water, and no air is available above, below or on the
sides. There are also bones and skulls, some submerged in the filthy sediment
on the bottom, some floating, susupended in the liquid. The walls here are
rough and uneven, but without any outlet or escape route for the water that
has accumulated here. One may travel north further through the murky tunnel
or up out of this mess.

In the Dark Troglodyte Caves
This rather large room is actually a naturally formed pocket in the deep
troglodyte cave system. The cavern is as large as a domed cathedral, the
ceiling rising several hundred feet above the smooth cavern floor. The walls
of this cavern are quite rough and uneven, with various small ledges criss-
crossing the face of the walls. The floor is comprised of a very rough black
rock, most likely some sort of lava based material. The air here is putrid and
filled with the disgusting smells of raw sewage. There is a large moat like
hole near the wall to the north. The hole in the floor is unprotected and
unguarded with any security railings or safety devices. The hole is filled
with water and filth, appearing to be some sort of latrine or sewage dump for
the troglodyte peoples refuse. One may travel down into the sludge or east
out of this cavern.

In the Dark Troglodyte Caves
This dark tunnel continues to wind through the troglodyte cave complex.
The floor is rough and covered with small chips of stone. The chips appear to
have come from a recent leveling of the right hand wall. The cold stone is
hard and unyielding, never changing, never evolving, always the exact same as
the day before, the year before, the millenia before. The air here is stale
and quite unpleasant, filled with the scents of decay. The troglodyte race is
firmly entrenched in this cave complex, as at home here in the dark as any race
of elf is to nature. The hard nature of the troglodyte race makes the life
they live in these tunnels as easy and natural as possible. One may travel
further in this cave complex by going west or south from this point.

This oddly shaped room opens up in naturally formed cavern. The cavern
roof is several yards above and is covered with small stalactites. The south
wall is where the iron rung ladder is firmly attached. The floor here is rough
and uneven, sloping to the north, further into the troglodyte cave complex.
The naturally formed tunnels are a wild and, much to the chagrin of the brave
adventurer, deffinetly inhabited. The stale air is filled with many scents,
mostly of rot and decay, of lizards and of death. The rough walls are filled
with shadowy alcoves and hidden passages. There are many passages that appear
to be tunnels, but most end in dead ends a few feet from this chamber. The
feeling of impending doom is unmistakable. One may travel back up a level in
the troglodyte caves or either north or east from this point.

This narrow tunnel continues to wind through the cold stone of the large
troglodyte cave complex. The inhabitants of this dark cave system are a cold
blooded and ruthless people. They are the stuff of legends, a powerful and
all together devestating race of warriors. The air here is stale and never
changing. The cool stone walls are rough and uneven with several shadowy
alcoves visible from this immediate area. The ceiling is quite askew, with a
long stone projection reaching from ceiling to floor. The projection makes any
travel nearly impossible through this narrow tunnel. The troglodyte race is
a nimble and agile breed, best designed for navigating through these narrow
tunnels. One may travel to the east or west from this point in the troglodyte
cave system.

In the Dark Troglodyte Caves
This narrow tunnel continues to wind through the troglodyte caves. The
black stone seems to be made of a granite like stone, the glassy surface able
to reflect light. The entire cave complex of the troglodytes is devoid of any
natural light. The creatures themselves do not require light to see in these
cramped subterranean tunnels. Small drops of moisture condense on the ceiling
and drip from time to time, creating an odd echo in the endless night of this
community. The smell here is rather unpleasant for those unused to the smells
of death, decay, and sweating reptiles. The walls here are very rough, still
in their natural condition. A great deal of the troglodyte caves are in their
same natural state, but there are some parts of the caves that did have to be
hand cut from the cold, black stone. One may travel to the south or west from
this point in the troglodyte caves.

In a Dark and Warm Hatching Nest in the Troglodyte Caves
This dark room is kept warm by the bodies of the troglodyte family that
makes their home here. The "nest" is actually a large pile of animal and also
human skin. The hides are organized loosely but, together with the heat of the
troglodyte bodies, it becomes quite cozy and warm. The room is roughly in the
shape of a circle, the walls all the same distance from the center of the room.
This side cave is naturally formed with almost no stone work having been done.
The floor is littered with small bones and scraps of flesh. Near the entrance
a large pile of molted troglodyte flesh has been piled as well. One may travel
to the north to leave this troglodyte nest.

The dark troglodyte caves continue to wind through the ground here. The
tunnels have twisted and turned so many times up to this point in the tunnels
the true direction is nearly impossible to discern. There is nothing to make
any differentiation between this tunnel and any other tunnel within the cave
complex. The dark stone is the same throughout the troglodyte caves, with no
variances in the composition of the rock. The air here is stagnant and has no
movement what so ever. The troglodyte people have claimed these naturally
formed caves as their own and have made some small adaptations to fully use the
entire complex to the fullest. There is a small set of iron rungs embedded in
the stone used as a means of getting from this level of the caves to the level
below it. The rungs are sturdy and can support a good deal of weight. One
may travel south or down from this point in the troglodyte cave system.

In the Dark Troglodyte Caves
This section of the troglodyte caves is very tight and narrow. The walls
and ceiling seem to be constricting on the tunnel opening. The narrow tunnel
is filled with the familiar smells of rot, decay and must. The troglodyte race
is a race of warriors, few of which are ever found dead. The race is extremely
successful in their night time raids, most often targeting the human colonies
located near this region. The troglodyte warriors usually attack the strongest
looking targets first and work their way down, which shows they are a very
intelligent and deliberate band of hunters. The air here is rather stale as
no drafts or currents move through the cold and dark stone. The ground here
is littered with small scraps of flesh and bone. A good deal of commotion can
be heard somewhere deep in the cave system. One may travel further into the
troglodyte cave system by traveling north or west from this point.
