I started my experiments with the obvious; throwing mana at the material and seeing what happens. As the mana pooled in each of the three metals I'd discovered I pondered what their discovery meant.

I studied some geology at university before I'd become a dungeon, and I know that metals and minerals don't form these convenient ...

The sun rose on yet another day of constant delves. After the Platinum's failure to best the third floor's boss, the rest of the delvers seem to have been reminded that I'm no ordinary dungeon.

The Silvers still explored the second floor, though most left after a few hours. The ones who did find the boss rarely committed to the fight. They never pushed their luck.

The Golds pushed past the second e...

Seventh Floor Theme

Hi Guys! Sorry there hasn't been a poll for a couple of weeks. Today, I need some help deciding on a theme for the seventh floor. For some context, here are the themes I've used for the previous floors.

Starlit Caverns (Simple caverns accessible from the beach and lit with small suns made of mana.)
Flooded Labyrinth (Shifting maze half-flooded with water)
Green Hell (Amazonian-style Jungle)
Vermin-Infested Sewers (Self-explanatory)

Chapter 23

An: Not super happy with the end of the chapter. Not sure it fits with the twins' actions so far. I'll probably change it before the public release.

Edit: I have changed the last section of the chapter. I think it's a lot better than what it was before.

Litan clashed with the lizard monster, his sword impacting it's hastily raised saber. This one seemed more prepared for a fight than the last. He attempted to overwhelm it, with slash after slash sparking off equally fast blocks. He squinted at the monster, who glared back with a look full of pure hatred.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a flash of their other opponents. A ...

Teka, Shaman of Fire Tribe, gently offered a fruit from the vine-plants that were found everywhere in the jungle. She offered the peeled fruit to the firebird that had nested in the branches of the tree her hut was built on. It's feathers were mostly orange, same as the fruit, with some deep red like fresh blood or flower-yellow. The bird, that h...

Litan jerked away from his screaming bodyguard as the man stumbled around, flailing wildly. He stared in horror as the man was consumed by an enormous swarm of insects. His bodyguard tripped, falling to the jungle floor. He attempted to roll. It didn't help. More and more insects covered him, looking more and more like a shifting mound of black sand. His screams became muffled, then abruptly cut off.

Merch Interest

Hey Guys.

So. I promised to start looking into merch when we reached the $200 goal.

We have passed that goal already.

So, I'm going to start figuring out some designs and shit, but I'd like a few data points from you guys to figure out exactly what you would want out of merch.

The options marked [1] are for whether you guys actually want merch. Please only vote for one of these.

The options marked [2] are for the types of merch I could get made. Vote for as many ...

To Name a Monster II

Hey Guys! Second week of my Patreon, and a new poll.

This time, we're naming the Rats.

The size of these monsters is quite variable; from the size of normal rats all the way up to a Great Dane. Normal sized rats will remain Rats, but I think the bigger specimens need a separate name.

No, We're not naming them Skaven. Warhammer has that copyright.

It's surprisingly hard to think of good names, so if you have your own idea please comment it.

Haythem Linus growled in anger and slammed his flagon of beer on the table. They had delved the dungeon for the third time today, and been forced to teleport out of the fight with the guardian for the second time. Frustrated, they had retreated to one of the three taverns in the little village to let out a little steam.

"Our party is just too small," he finally spoke. Bertram ...

As the final party of the day teleported out of the dungeon, it was with no small amount of relief on my part.

These guilders are relentless. Again and again they delve my first and second floors, despite losing an average of three of their number a day. Mostly Silver, but one Gold was lost to the fish. He was a swordsman, and his core seemed to lack an elemental inclination. I put it to the si...

To Name a Monster

Hi Guys!

This first poll is going to be a little basic, since I'm still figuring out how Patreon works.

I need help naming a monster, and I'd like your help to do it.

The monster we need to name properly is the 'Flamer', the crab monster that can throw fire. I've thought up a few options and I'd like your input. If you have any other ideas, please comment them. If they get enough support I'll add them to the poll.

Thank you guys for joining the Silver Tier! I'll try to...

That was boring. A few snippy comments and the trio teleported out of there. It was the smart decision, don't get me wrong, but it wasn't very entertaining. The curses and grumblings of 'Vert' were enjoyable enough, though. Learnt some new ones there.

They didn't last as long as Haythem's party, and...
