It’s time for another set piece! This time it’s a book filled, purple-carpeted Wizard’s Tower!

 

 

This is a cramped map, with most rooms offering only 5-8 clear tiles, so have your squeeze and close combat rules handy!

It might make for a fun low-level quest, where the local wizard has gone missing and the players must investigate his home. Goblins – or another suitable nuisance with group bonuses – have taken advantage of the open guest room and food-stocked basement. Up the stairs await a number of arcane traps left by the tower’s old denizen, including an animated suit of armor guarding his teleportation circle. Further still up the spiraling steps is his bedroom, where a priceless telescope is pointed out the window and a mysterious chest sits against the wall. I’m sure it’s trapped too!

Let me know what plot hooks, encounters and traps you can come up with in the comments!
