Evanstone Keep

Evanstone Keep, a circular three storey Tower located near the Western Coast of The Southern Peninsula, has been there for as long as anyone can remember. Long abandoned, it is now home to Luther, an eccentric Alchemist with a little too much ambition with his experiments.

Introduction Into Campaign
Evanstone Keep is first heard of at the start of The Goblin Wall Massacre. While Tam and Elasha are conversing with the Reve's Assistant, he tells them of a job to find out what's going on in the long abandoned Evanstone Keep. The Party reaches Evanstone Keep after leaving Brennaz, in The Voices of the Mouths.

Location
Evanstone Keep is located about halfway down The Western Coast of The Southern Peninsula. On foot, it is approximately two days journey to the Mining Town of Corhagen in the Northeast, and two days journey to the Port Towne of Brennaz in the Southeast.

The Tower
Evanstone Keep is a small tower with three floors, each comprised of one room.

The First Floor
Entering the first floor is a rather dismal experience. There is no light, an old shield or two on the wall, rusted and cobwebby, and a lot of dust. Across the room, a staircase climbs along the wall. As you climb it, it ends at a door.

The Second Floor
As you walk through the doorway to the Second Floor of Evanstone Keep, you are greeted with the smell of musty parchment, as there are books as far as the eye can see. If you can't see very far, it's not that big a tower. There are eight bookcases, lined up into two rows, all loaded with books., parchments, and scrolls.

Oh, and the remains of a Gibbering Mouther. That thing really stinks. Can't forget about the Gibbering Mouther. Another staircase climbs along the opposite wall, again ending at a door.

The Third Floor
The third floor is exactly what you would expect an Alchemists Tower to be; walls lined with shelves, shelves lined with books, potions, and rare and wondrous ingredients. In the center of the room is a huge table, loaded with some of the most intricate and fascinating glassware and equipment. At the far end of the room is a desk, laden with books and papers. Behind that desk sits a crazy old man; Luther, the Alchemist(?).
