Midden, Week 2

The cleaning demon is a Beksinski painting, but worse. Heavily inspired by the recycling monster in The Stars Are Legion.

 

 8: Fisher’s Grotto

  • A little room in the rock, connected to the boardwalk.
  • A hoarder’s room, filled with weird detritus & crude fishing rods. If you need something, it might be here.
  • (!) Lair of the Fisher, an antisocial mutant. Likes to trick intruders into upsetting the Judge. Might be persuaded to trade.



Region: Ordered Halls

The cleaning demon makes its home here, ordering the filth of the midden.


9: Hall of Leavings

  • Ascends from the wound in the earth.
  • A rough tunnel, like a mineshaft. The floor is covered with crunching layers of worthless human possessions – dice,  wretched clothing, clay amulets, fractured lamps, knucklebones, soiled ragdolls.
  • (!) DIfficult terrain due to the detritus. Movement makes noise.


10: Hall of Swords

  • A vaulted gallery, its sides piled with weapons and armour of all kinds, broken, corroded, chipped, and ruined.
  • (??) Whichever weapon or piece of armour you want, a successful search will reveal a crappy but usable version.


11: Cleaning Demon’s Lair

  • (!) Lair of the shaggy, many-jointed nightmare beast that tends the midden. Intruders are to be placed in the Hall of Hooks until it can sort them out.
  • An immaculate stone room that smells like death. The reek is overpowering.


14: Hall of the Left

  • An ossuary made entirely of left arms and legs.
