The Flooding Chamber [25x15]

“When the gods shed tears in excess,
And rivers can't hold their embrace,
I march on and never regress,
And submerge all below my surface.”
The ancient dwarves protected their crypts from the rising ground water with special chambers to contain it. These cisterns provided ample supply of fresh water in the ancient times. So much in fact they started to find creative uses for controlled flooding and water irrigation in the dwarven megacity of Undrum’Kal. But today they really only ever cause problems.
This map is inspired by one of the first ever homebrew encounters I ran, Instead of flooding water the guessing added an additional monster to the encounter, one of my very first- a “Ratspider” Luckily I got more creative with my beasties as the years went on, But I’ll always have a little soft spot in my heart for what is an objectively terrible campy monster.
