As no-one is in the cave I go in and use geomancy to even out the edges of the rooms, stabilize the cave, tunnel some vents for smoke to escape, dig a fire-pit, create a stone table, create a large gate, make several more rooms, and create a very large pit in the ground in one of the new rooms.

Kemios-

You create some strange minion.

 

I think I said it was fairly small, 15 rooms or something.

Igos takes the book from the skeletal hand, and looks to see what it is.

Umbra-

Your tenacles kill them, unfortunately two of them were not silenced and made a cry of pain, which was heard by the Golem which roars up in the next room. You hear the clanking of heavy chains.

+.3 Shadow magic.

I wait for a bit, and order the tentacles to drag the dead bodies to me

Grim recieves .3 Geomancy.

Igos-

"Necromancy: Blood and Bone!"

Umbra- Two of the bodies are too heavy.

I loot the one body brought to me, I also wait to see if anything pops up from around the corner

Edit: Nevermind, I didn't read the whole post. #-o

Thanks archi ! anyways the next thing that I do is to create an anvil and some targets using geomancy. Finally with aid from my fire-battlestaff I try to fill the deep pit with hellfire.

Umbra- There are 19 Gold pieces, some playing cards and a short sword.

Igos reads the necro book, wondering what he will learn from it.

I take the shortsword, did anything apepar from the corner and is the sound of chains still there?

Kemios

I have said twice now it has 15 rooms and is relatively small.

 

Thus please design a castle that has 15 or less rooms and is relatively small.

Grim-

You create a hell fire pit...It will need to be replenished every so often(Basically when you come back home) You fail to create anything else

 

+.2 Fire magic.

Igos-

+.5

+.2

 

You can choose intelligence and necromancy(so either .5 to one and .2 to the other or .2 to one and .5 to the other)

Umbra-

No, it seems fairly quiet now.

(what does intelligence effect exactly? Also, do I still keep the book afterwards?)

Umbra slowly creeps up to the bodies (wary of traps, and tentacles close by to drag him out of harms way) I loot them

I try to create a hellfire forge in the next room. I also start creating a bed as well as a chest. When done I will go to exile and buy a matress and retrieve my cash.

Alright, the castle has a main entrance corridor, with doors branching off of it to towers on the corners of the castle. The lower levels of the towers are also rooms, which can be used for various necessities. There are three doors at the end of the entrance corridor - two visible, one not. The camouflaged door leads to Kemios' quarters. The other two are room for general use.

 

The upper floors of the tower have no roof, and the only way of accessing them is by either climbing a wall or use of a ladder from the inside.

 

The only thing resembling a basement in the castle is deep underground where Kemios most of his belongings and there's about 5 feet of earth between that and the castle.

Kemios now attempts to use ice magic to turn one of the rooms into a food-preservation room (a.k.a. giant room-sized refrigerator) and also attempts to use fire and earth magic to create a small forge. This takes the two rooms at the end of the hallway.

Igos- Yeah you keep the book.

Intelligence is useful in two aspects...firstly it gives you the chance to increase the intelligence of your creations(Which is extremely useful since they won't do so horribly wrong when they do wrong, and when they do good they will do better)

Secondly, at level 10 Intelligence you can write books, which takes a long while but you can make alot of money out of it.

Umbra recieves 50 Gold pieces and 2 more short swords.
