4. Kitchen and Pantry

Entries

There are only two doors, one to the west leading back to the main hall and one to the north leading to the walk-in pantry.

Contents & Furnishings

The kitchen is tidy, with dishware, cookware and utensils neatly placed on shelves. A worktable has a cutting board and rolling pin atop it. A stone, domeshaped over stands near the northern wall, its bent iron stovepipe connection to a hole in the ceiling. Behind the stove and to the left is a door leading to a wellstocked pantry. All the food in the pantry appears fresh but tastes bland.

Hazards & Traps

In the southeast corner of the kitchen is a small door leading to a dumbwaiter - a 2-foot wide stone shaft containing a wooden elevator box attached to a simple rope-and-pulley mechanism that must be operated manually. It connects to 7. The Servants' Quarters and 12. Master Suite . Hanging on the wall next to the dumbwaiter is a tiny brass bell attached by wires to buttons in those other areas.
A Small character can squeeze into the elevator box with successful DC 10 Dex (Acrobatic) check. Dumbwaiter can support 200 pounds of weight.
