Marmoris Carcerem, a prison kilodungeon
A downloadable Dungeon
THIS WORK IS UNFINISHED!
WORK THAT REMAINS TO BE DONE:
- Write in the special treasure descriptions for things such as magic items
- Write in monsters beyond those encountered on the first floor of the dungeon
- Write in rooms beyond those on the first floor
- Draw the map for levels beyond the first floor
WHAT IS DONE:
- Entire first floor of the dungeon is fully playable
What is this?
What started as just a simple short dungeon to introduce a friend to the OSR style of gaming that went through an amount of scope bloat.
We are now looking at little over 100 rooms of an old prison complex that was supposed to have been shut down and fallen to disuse, yet houses a plethora of strange things and beings.
What I am doing here is cleaning up the notes I have been running this dungeon based off of and attempting to put them into a format readable by a sane person instead of a GM that builds their dungeons on google sheets of all things.
Marmoris Carcerem elsewhere:
Lavi, a long time player in the dungeon, has been fiddling around with a pdf of equipment sets for other hopeful delvers to use which can now be found here:

Great vibes and design. Moving the bosses like a game changing idea for dungeon dressing. It feels as a pain sometimes.
I like the unique take on encounters as opposed to traditional stocking! Thanks for putting this up!
I'm glad to hear you liked, let alone could make sense of, the little "roaming bosses" system.
I don't remember if I mentioned it in the text but this is supposed to be a beginner dungeon so I wanted to try to teach people to approach a dungeon more as an immersive sim than as a place to waltz in to rip and tear into some orcs and goblins.
