Beneath Dread Pr'lyeh, Sleeping Beauty Waits Dreaming...

It's called Sleeping Beauty's Dungeon.

No, it's not another Ann Rice Novel.

It's a megadungeon setting for Seven Voyages of Zylarthen

I thought I would create part of it in the open, so to speak, using the dungeon creation rules from Vol. 4, The Campaign, which in turn are of course quite similar to the suggestions put forth in The Underworld & Wilderness Adventures.

Step 1 is to generate the rough structure of levels and sections. Each level has from 1-6 sections, containing 1-40 rooms apiece. This may sound like a lot of rooms, but it actually works out to be only about half the size per level of, say Stonehell Dungeon.

Much of the narrative and tone will be determined by the (randomly generated) monsters. But obviously, as things proceed I reserve the right to tweak, edit, change, delete and make stuff up according to whim.

One tweak I've made to monster stocking is that for any monster lair, on a roll of 1 or 2 out of 6, the type of monster will be one of those that has already appeared--in the current section, level or even from a nearby level.

So much for the preliminaries, let's jump in.
