Dungeon 24 Project

One room a day, every day, for one year, resulting in a 12-level mega dungeon complex.  This is the Dungeon 24 Project. I want to keep the main page dedicated to world building about Larm.  Going forward, the daily updates for the Dungeon 24 Project can be accessed through the "Dungeon 24" link at the top of the page.

Encounter - Desecration of the Barrow Tomb, Part 2

In this dungeon, the players will encounter both the surviving human bandits who broke in to raid the barrow tomb and the animalistic Morlocks that dwell in the adjoining subterranean passageways.  The players will have the opportunity to explore the three tombs to get a sense of what's going on before they encounter the survivors.  The encounter can be played out in two ways: 1) with the players realizing the danger and allowing the Morlock in Room 4 to retreat back into its lair; or 2) with the players pursuing the Morlock and its allies, with a final showdown in Room 6.

Larm: The Lay of the Land

From the previous post we know that the authors of Labyrinth Lord gave us very little to work with in the published description of our beloved Larm.  We know that it is a farming and mining community.  We know that it is a river community.  And we know that it has a 100-man militia.  This information is enough to get us started, for it implies certain things about our frontier community. First, being some 140 miles (14 hexes) from the grand city of Dolmvay, we know that Larm must be largely self-sufficient.  To feed and support the 1,000 residents, Larm's farmers must be raising both crops and livestock.  Looking at the general terrain, we see that Larm is located in hill country to the east, and river valley to the west.  It is likely that Larm's farmers tend flocks of sheep and cattle, harvesting the wool and leather in addition to the meat of the animals.  In addition, the access to the river suggests that Larm has no shortage of fishermen. Second, from the map we can see a
