He appears to be a normal, although huge, human being. But as you take a closer look at him, you see that his eyes glimmer with an unhealthy shade of red. Lurking behind those eyes seems to be an evil intelligence that you have never encountered before. ~ 67 33554432 0 -100 S 50 0 0 4800d0+0 0d0+0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 3 0 0 #26006 dark acolyte~ A dark acolyte~ A dark acolyte shuffles by you, mumbling under his breath. ~ You see before you an acolyte of the Demon Temple.

looks ancient beyond belief. It is shaped like a pyramid, yet its color is like nothing you have ever seen. The sides seem to be drenched in dark, glistening blood that pulses with power and overwhelming evil. As you take a closer look at the huge structure in front of you, you notice that the temple is not made of stones, but rather seem to consist of overlapping scales, perhaps of some extinct species of dragon. The light of the sun seems to dim noticeably around the temple, and you feel a chill as you step into the darkened clearing. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26002 S #26002 Entrance to The Temple~ You stand before the entrance to the temple. A stout iron door, also blood-red and made of the massive scales of a dragon, blocks your way into the temple. You can now faintly hear screams of fear and pain even through that thick door, although it is not clear if those awful sounds are made by humans or animals. Also barring your way into the temple is a towering guard clad in blood-red, scaly armor. ~ 0 4 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 3 26001 26003 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26001 S #26003 Temple Foyer~ Your senses are assaulted as you step into the darkened temple. Guttering torches set in the walls cast flickering lights across the foyer, yet the corners remain dark and hidden. You smell the combined stench of rotting and burning flesh, and the agonized cries of unfortunate souls ring in your ears. The ceiling seems to be literally dripping with blood, and as you watch a drop of dark blood falls onto you, burning a small hole into your armor. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26006 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26004 D2 ~ ~ 3 26001 26002 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26005 S #26004 Temple Foyer~ You stand at the southeast corner of the temple foyer. Somehow it seems much darker here, and some strange sounds seem to be coming from the blackness of the deepest corner. A distinct chill steals over your skin as you enter this area, and deepens as you approach the north. To the west you can see the entrance to the temple, and to the north lies a black door. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26007 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26003 S #26005 Temple Foyer~ You stand in the southwest corner of the temple foyer. A sickly red flame burns atop a blackened torch in this corner, casting a red glare across the surroundings. As you come closer to the torch, you start to hear insane giggling and howls of mad laughter. It might be a good idea to stay away from that torch... ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26008 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26003 S #26006 Temple Foyer~ You stand in the middle of the temple foyer. The light seems a bit brighter here, but you feel a malevolently evil force to the north. The agonized shriek of a dying soul pierces your ears before being suddenly cut off. To the east you can see a black door, and a chilly draft wafts across your skin as you peer over there. To the west lies a red door, and the blood dripping from the ceiling seems to emanate from that direction. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26007 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26003 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26008 S #26007 Temple Foyer~ You stand at the northeast corner of the temple foyer, before a huge door apparently made of obsidian. The door seems to suck up the weak light that the torches emit, and the pitch black surface of the door gives off no reflection whatsoever. As you come closer to the door, the temperature of the room seems to drop below freezing, as the pulsing blackness of the door seems to absorb any heat around it. Standing before the door is a monstrous guard who looks less than human, and bars your passage with a huge black battle-axe. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 23 26011 26011 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26004 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26006 S #26008 Temple Foyer~ You stand at the northwest corner of the temple foyer, before a door that seems to be made of blood. The dark red liquid flows up from the ground and spreads out over the ceiling. A dark black keyhole seems to float in the moving river of blood that makes up this unholy door, and you feel the presence of dark magics at work. Standing before the door is a monstrous guard who looks more than human, and bars your passage with an axe made of living blood. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 23 26009 26009 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26006 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26005 S #26009 West Entrance to the Staircase~ You stand in the bend of a dark hallway. There are fewer torches along the wall here, and they barely throw enough light for you to see the blood-red walls. To the east you can barely make out what looks like a huge staircase. The inhuman screams that you hear now make an unceasing chorus that drives into your brain like an icy spike. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26010 D2 ~ ~ 0 26009 26008 S #26010 Bottom of the Staircase~ You stand at the bottom of a gigantic staircase, obviously made for beings far larger than you. You cannot see the top of the stairs in the shrouded darkness, although the screams of agonizing terror seem to be coming from that direction. The step in front of you is made of a rough stone, and is covered in glistening, warm blood. You might be able to pull yourself up onto the first step if you can find a grip on the slick stone. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26011 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26009 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 26012 S #26011 East Entrance to the Staircase~ You stand in the bend of a dark hallway. There are fewer torches along the wall here, and they barely throw enough light for you to see the blood-red walls. To the west you can barely make out what looks like a huge staircase. The inhuman screams that you hear now make an unceasing chorus that drives into your brain like an icy spike. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 23 26011 26007 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26010 S #26012 The Step of &RBlood~ You stand on a step that glistens with dark blood. The liquid seems to be actually seeping out from the dark stone underneath, and your feet begin to feel uncomfortably warm. It might be a good idea to get off this step before the blood finds its way to your skin. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26013 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 26010 S #26013 The Step of &RBlood~ The blood on the ground now seems to be bubbling and gurgling along the step. It splashes against your legs and feet and small tendrils of smoke arise from where droplets spatter against your armor. You can almost hear demonic whispers and the insane babbling of lost souls above the sounds of the sloshing blood, but it is probably better that you cannot hear those voices clearly. Ahead of you stands a sleek black step made of pure obsidian. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26012 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 26014 S #26014 The Step of &zObsidian~ As you haul yourself up onto this step, you can feel the eerie coldness that seems to emanate from this pitch black stone. The floor and walls seem to suck all the heat from your body, and it seems darker on this step, even though the torches seem just as plentiful up here. The screaming from up above seems to be getting even louder. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26015 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 26013 S #26015 The Step of &zObsidian~ As you walk across the huge, seamless block of obsidian that makes up this step, you can see two priests cloaked in black standing before you. The temperature seems to be steadily dropping as you make your way across the surface of the step. You cannot tell if the deep chill emanates from these two stolid figures, or from the massive block of black ice that makes up the next step. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26014 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 26016 S #26016 The Step of &bBlack Ice~ The chill you felt on the step below has deepened to a mindnumbing temperature. The step you stand upon is made of slick ice, clear and with no apparent flaws. You are about halfway up this huge staircase, and now you can see neither the top nor the bottom in the darkness of the temple. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26017 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 26015 S #26017 The Step of &bBlack Ice~ It might be a good idea to watch your step as you move across the slick surface of the step. You can feel the cold beginning to work its way through your boots and into your toes. Before you stands a step apparently made of burning embers, yet you feel no heat from that direction. Before you also stands two priests, giving you a chilly stare of their own. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26016 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 26018 S #26018 The Step of &RBurning &rEmbers~ The cold burns away from your feet as you climb up to this step. The surface of this step appears to be a solid, packed mass of fiery hot coals. Somehow you don't burn yourself when you touch the floor, but the temperature in here is uncomfortably warm. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26019 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 26017 S #26019 The Step of &RBurning &rEmbers~ The temperature grows from warm to hot as you move across the step. Before you stand two priests clad in the same strange substance that the step is made of. The screams you hear have grown ear-piercingly loud, and you can finally see the top of the staircase. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26018 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 26029 S #26020 The Corner of &RBlood~ There is a constant river of blood flowing from the temple altar into this corner of the shrine. It collects into a pool of dark, viscous red fluid, and an unpleasant warmth seems to emanate from this source. The blood ripples and seethes in the corner, seeming to take on a life of its own. The blood also flows up the walls from this corner in defiance of gravity, spreading out over the ceiling and the rest of the temple. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26023 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26021 S #26021 Entrance to the Shrine~ You stand on the top floor of the temple, before a huge bloody altar that stands in the center of this room. The ceiling rises toward the sky in the shape of a thin knife, far beyond the reach of the torches' illumination. Although you can see no windows, small wisps of wind caress your skin, seeming to whisper of madness and lost souls. Ahead you can finally see the source of the screams, as a dark figure prepares to sacrifice his next victim. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26024 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26022 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26029 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26020 S #26022 The &zObsidian &WCorner~ This corner of the demonic shrine is strewn with black obsidian rubble. If you do not watch your step you are likely to twist an ankle or scrape a leg on the sharp, irregularly shaped rocks. As you take a closer look into the corner, you can see what looks to be a huge outgrowth of pure obsidian. It appears that the stone is slowly emerging from the walls, and has gradually taken over this corner of the shrine over many long years. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26025 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26021 S #26023 Temple Shrine~ You stand in a hideous shrine raised to worship the demons of this world and beyond. Painted on the walls are murals painted in dark red relief, glistening with the color of fresh blood. Even in the uneven, flickering light of the torches, you can make out depictions of the unspeakable actions of the demons. Here you can see hordes of people enslaved by demon masters, demons mutilating and torturing humans while wearing inhuman grins of gleeful madness, and other visions that make you turn your eyes away. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26026 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26024 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26020 S #26024 &RTemple Altar~ You stand in the middle of this demonic shrine, before a huge ornate altar that is dripping with blood. Dominating this room is a sacrificial table that looks like it has seen ages of use and thousands of victims. Blood drips from a hole in the table down into a wide gulley, where the red liquid flows into the southwest corner of the shrine. Beside the table stands the High Priest of this Temple, preparing to sacrifice his next screaming victim. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26027 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26025 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26021 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26023 D5 ~ ~ 119 26025 26030 S #26025 Temple Shrine~ You stand in a hideous shrine raised to worship the demons of this world and beyond. Painted on the walls are murals painted in dark red relief, glistening with the color of fresh blood. Even in the uneven, flickering light of the torches, you can make out depictions of the unspeakable actions of the demons.

This entire corner seems to be made of a single block of black ice, as if some huge sculptor carved it out of a mountain made of flawless ice. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26027 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26023 S #26027 Temple Shrine~ You stand in a hideous shrine raised to worship the demons of this world and beyond.

Every tile and every stone in this part of the shrine seems to be a piece of living fire, shaped into squares and blocks and octagons. Pure red flames seems to be dancing in the very corner as you step across the burning embers, and you are sure you can hear maniacal laughter coming from those very flames. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26025 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26027 S #26029 The Top of the Staircase~ You stand at the top of this gigantic, demon-sized staircase. The bottom of the staircase is now completely lost in shrouded blackness, and it seems to be many thousands of feet below. Before you lies the shrine of this demonic temple, and the dark evil emanating from the altar is almost palpable. The shrieks of agony you heard on the staircase now seems to be coming from directly ahead, but your vision is fogged by a misty darkness and a strange red glare. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26021 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 26019 S #26030 The &zAbyss~ You are floating above black nothingness. Above you can see the faint, flickering light of torches, but below is nothing but impenetrable blackness. You can hear faint groanings and growlings below you, and soft scratches and scribbling of movement. Whatever is moving below you is definitely not human. ~ 0 33554440 0 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 119 26025 26024 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 26031 S #26031 The &zAbyss~ You are floating in absolute pitch black nothingness. Your light illuminates a sphere of perhaps five feet in every direction, but you can see nothing around you. The sounds below have gotten louder, and you sense that the floor on which those creatures reside is not far below. ~ 0 33554440 0 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 26030 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 26032 S #26032 The First Level of the &zAbyss~ You land on a black-green surface that feels cold and gooey. Your feet stick in the goop, and it is hard to walk around. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26039 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26037 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26034 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26036 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 26031 S #26033 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26036 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26034 S #26034 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26032 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26035 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26033 S #26035 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26037 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26034 S #26036 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26038 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26032 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26033 S #26037 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 26040 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26035 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26032 S #26038 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26039 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26036 S #26039 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 26040 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26032 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26038 S #26040 ~ ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 26037 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 26039 S #0 #SPECIALS M 26024 spec_cast_cleric S #RESETS M 0 26002 1 26002 E 0 26002 0 20 E 0 26003 0 5 M 0 26006 8 26006 E 0 26006 0 16 E 0 26010 0 20 M 0 26007 1 26007 E 0 26007 0 20 G 0 26011 0 E 0 26007 0 21 M 0 26008 1 26008 G 0 26009 0 E 0 26008 0 20 E 0 26008 0 21 M 0 26006 8 26010 E 0 26010 0 20 E 0 26006 0 16 M 0 26013 2 26013 E 0 26013 0 20 M 0 26015 2 26015 E 0 26015 0 16 M 0 26017 2 26017 E 0 26017 0 20 E 0 26016 0 15 G 0 26001 0 M 0 26019 2 26019 E 0 26019 0 6 E 0 26018 0 20 G 0 26005 0 M 0 26021 1 26021 E 0 26021 0 20 E 0 26019 0 6 E 0 26016 0 15 E 0 26015 0 16 M 0 26024 1 26024 E 0 26022 0 21 E 0 26023 0 20 G 0 26025 0 E 0 26026 0 5 O 0 26027 0 26024 M 0 26027 1 26024 M 0 26025 6 26025 E 0 26004 0 2 E 0 26012 0 20 M 0 26006 8 26027 E 0 26006 0 16 E 0 26010 0 20 M 0 26032 6 26032 E 0 26032 0 16 E 0 26033 0 6 E 0 26034 0 17 E 0 26035 0 12 E 0 26036 0 20 E 0 26036 0 21 E 0 26037 0 5 E 0 26038 0 3 E 0 26039 0 0 E 0 26040 0 4 E 0 26041 0 14 S #SHOPS 0 #$
