All of you have arrived here with some intention, but this antiquated ruin carries its own reputation of notoriety. None who enter this massive structure have ever come back, but the legends promise gold and power beyond imagining for those who make it to the very end of it.
It is colossal in size. That much is apparent from the outside. There are many different entrances as well, even more for the creative minded. Getting into it was never a problem... coming back out is.
As you approach it, you feel something twisting your insides, as if something is wrong about this place. It carries an aura of unnatural evil. Staying here for very long would be ill-advised indeed, but that would not stop you now.
Without further delay, you find an entrance to the antediluvian super structure and head inside...

[Encounter Roll: 60! 2d20 rolled for 25! 2 Orcs, 1 Minotaur!]
You rely on your discipline, your martial arts, and your inherent self-reliance to carry you to the heart of this massive and dark place. You find your way through a window and leap through, rolling into a rather large foyer. There may have once been furniture here, but no more. In the center is a minotaur with a large axe and two Orcs. He seems to be in charge of them, as he seems to be detailing his plan for 'taking over' the castle.
(You can choose to fight them, though you have a sense it will be an extremely difficult fight, or you can take an exit out of the room gaining more corruption, and getting another roll. Or perhaps, you can find another creative way to bypass these three...)

[Encounter Roll: 80! 1d20 roll for 17! 2 Young White Dragons]
You decide the front door is probably not wise and find a servant entrance through one of the kitchens. As you come out into a large dining room, you see two individuals that can be nothing other than dragons. They're both in a bipedal form, so they look more like Humans with dragon heads covered in white scales with wings and a tail. They seem to be arguing over the treasure in the corner - it seems some other poor adventure met his end trying to escape and now they were deciding who deserved what percentage of it. The argument was civil, at the moment.
You think fighting these two would be extremely foolish. Outside of that, you could leave, find another entrance, or try to bypass them someway without combat...

[Encounter Roll: 64. 1 Incubus]
You rely on your wits here and try not to use any entrance clearly used by someone else - it must not've worked out for them. You find a rear window surprisingly unlocked and slide it open and climb into the main building. You stumble into a bedroom, where an extremely attractive man was sleeping. He'd be more (or perhaps less) attractive without the horns, red skin, or wings. It's clear this is some kind of demon, and more than any Tiefling. You climbing into the room was causing him to stir and it's clear he's about to wake up.
You can choose to leave now and avoid his notice, or confront him in some way. You believe combat against this creature would be extremely difficult.

[Encounter Roll: 8. 1 Zombie]
You head right through the front entrance, hoping maybe someone else already cleared any dangers that exist there. You find yourself in a small guard room, meant to check anyone coming through for weapons first and take their coats, in more courtly affairs. It was mostly bare, except a single undead man in the center of the room. He groans when you enter and turns to face you. While normally such creatures were set on murder, you were uncertain as you notice a large and completely intact erection between its legs.
You feel certain you can defeat this creature in combat, but you could certainly try to come up with something else to bypass it.

[Encounter Roll: 13. 1 Goblin!]
You find a small laundry chute on the outside and climb through it, counting on nothing being on the other side. You wiggle your way through and drop off the end of it once inside. You find yourself in a small guest bedroom and you see a four foot tall goblin rummaging through some of the furniture for valuables. His ears perk up when you enter and you only have a moment before he turns and sees you.
You feel this creature might be a tricky combatant, but not impossible. Certainly, a non-combat solution is always an option. You can choose to leave now, and try a different entrance, but the lingering aura of the manor-castle seems to have some kind of effect on you...
