Treasure Room in the Goblin Warrens
🕑 Added 2025-01-20 16:45:28 +0000 UTCThe Grak’Thar Clan of goblins are the current residents of these twisting and looping caves tucked deep beneath the roots of ancient, twisted trees. The walls are rough and jagged, adorned with crude drawings and symbols that tell the goblins’ history and beliefs. Here and there, bioluminescent fungi cast an eerie, otherworldly glow, illuminating the damp, musty corridors. The air is thick with the scent of earth, goblin waste, and decay, punctuated by the occasional scurrying of unseen creatures.
The warren was established generations ago by a cunning goblin chieftain named Grak, who sought refuge from encroaching human settlers. Legend has it that Grak, with the help of her shaman, invoked ancient magics to entwine the tunnels into the hillside and roots of the great twisted tree above them.
The caves serve not only as a home but also as a fortress against invaders. Adventurers and rival tribes have attempted to penetrate the warren, and the warren’s history is marred by tales of brutal battles, with the bones of the fallen left to lie as grim reminders.
Surprisingly close to one of the entrances to the warrens is a small deep cavern that serves as the clan chieftain’s treasure room. The entrance to this cave is hidden behind a secret door buried in the roots of the tree above. The location of this cave and the methods of opening the secret passage are passed down by the chieftain to her children only shortly before her death – the only other goblin who knows of the treasure cave is the clan shaman who also passes the secret down to their apprentices.
The 1200 dpi versions of the map were drawn at a scale of 300 pixels per square and are 9,600 x 9,600 pixels in size (32 x 32 squares). To use this with a VTT you would need to resize the squares to either 70 pixels (for 5′ squares) or 140 pixels (for the recommended 10′ squares that works with the furnishings as presented) – so resizing it to either 2,240 x 2,240 or 4,480 x 4,480 pixels, respectively.
