This is where the Ones Below (now Plague Cultists) live. There’s a hidden entrance outside the temple that leads to area U1, but U5 also has […]
If you’ve missed the previous posts about a snowflake dungeon, you can find them here. The Ghouls are in the belltower. In my snowflake dungeon, that is. We’re tackling a small location today.
