Basement


1 Stairs to the 1st Floor - Only accessible from the trapdoor on the 1st Floor. Usually Inn staff or close friends of the owner are allowed beyond this point. The stairs heading up are a fifty foot climb all the way to the trapdoor right in front of the bar in the common room.

2 Tomb - Sometimes having a tender spot for any vampires who are fleeing from the law, this tomb is here to allow a vampire to hide during the day but only if the fee of a thousand silver for a day can be meet.

3 Trapdoor leading to the Secret Storage Chamber on the 1st Floor and then further up into Room #1 on the 2nd Floor - Only past owner Zarak Scythe and those of the elite secret organization the Shrouded Fist know of this entrance.

4 Wine Room - Where all extra supplies of wine are kept as well as non-perishable food items for the Inn.

5 Vault - Where all of Inn's riches and profits are stored.

6 Portal Chamber - A crystal is set here for the day should a swift retreat from the area be needed.

7 Gaming Lounge - Once, back when Zarak Scythe owned the Inn and when his sailing ship the Good Fortune was in port, his crew needed a place to unwind and apart from the common room as not to create a scene, brawl or alert local officials about the fact that they were pirates. In this room those thugs and pirates used to wheel and deal in games of Roulette, Cards, Dice, Billiards & Poker. Also several of the waitresses from the TwistedBlade , who did not mind earning extra pay thru questionable and seedy means, could be found down here among the pirates. A few people were allowed in after paying a small fee of 50 silver and swearing to keep the secret safe. However under the new management this room has since remained unused.

8 Storage Room - Where all non-food items are kept for the Inn such as sheets, extra logs for the fire, spare crystals and repair materials.

9 ? - A rare few even enter this room or can even find it.

10 Main Basement hallway - This room is normally occupied by various barrels and crates containing items for the Inn.

11 Dock - Reachable by a door which blocks the outside from the basement this dock contains a lone rowboat belonging to Scuz. Each morning he can be found rowing out to the island nearby to fish. This area once contained a dock house which was destroyed during an attack by the Tsunomysh in 714 AD which also created Scuz's Island and caved in a tunnel near the Sewers.

12 Scuz's Island - Created when the Tsunomysh attacked Tantallon and ripped out a section of the cliff face, Scuz heads here to fish for Cratas, Sea Cratas and other odd sea life he thinks will make a good dinner special for the TwistedBlade Inn.

13 Entrance into the Tantallon Sewers - Passing beyond this point is extremely dangerous.

14 Unknown - The now dead Shadow Knight Shape shifter Mordroc was rumored to have had a torture chamber somewhere in the Tantallon Sewers back during the Shadow Knight/Rehel Occupation of Tantallon (705-706 AD) but these chambers have yet to be discovered.

15 Tantallon Sewers - Heading North into Tantallon and the rumored location of the Tantallon Resistance base which saw much use during the occupations by Galadore & Rehel (705-706 AD) and by the Krarthian Union (715 AD).

16 Caved in Tunnel - This tunnel was once used by the Tantallon Resistance to connect to an underground base below Tantallon Castle that was used during the Shadow Knight/Rehel occupation of Tantallon (705-706 AD) but caved in during the same earthquake that destroyed the cliff dock house. While the base it used to connect to was not the main Tantallon Resistance base (Located a mile north from the TwistedBlade Inn's basement) it was however one of several bases used by other cells in the Resistance.
