Inktober 2019 Day 10: Pattern in Staff Events | World Anvil

Inktober 2019 Day 10: Pattern

Today's Prompt:

An organization of investigators hunts a serial killer.
An industrious adventurer tries to solve the puzzle of a dungeon.
A proud culture is lost to mystery and only a few clues remains.

There's a pattern to this,
a mechanism by which to make truth reveal itself.

What is it?

Map of the Damned
Document | Jan 31, 2023

The Map of the Damned is meant to be a map of the intricate pattern of rooms that exist in the Castle of the Damned. Unfortunately, due to the twisted magic of the castle and the creator of the map itself, the map often tends to serve as more of a trap.
