Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cadence" data-source="post: 8928442" data-attributes="member: 6701124">Room 54 - The North Fey HallwayThis 45'x 10' hallway has a high arched ceiling - 15' at the edges and 18' in the middle. The hall has three doors on each side and a large picture (?) covered with a sheet at the north end. The south end likely had a door at one point but it is missing, and the fountain in 53 can be seen and the bubbling heard. The solid stone and brick walls for the hall and rooms in this wing have a pink-tinged high-quality stucco applied and the doors are a solid unbound maple with brass handles. The stone floor is covered with flagstone, and the floor in the hall shows scattered chippings that might be from horse hooves (a DC 18 check - DC 12 after seeing the painting in the South Fey Hall- would reveal it is only three hooves). The rooms have 10' ceilings and lighting as noted in their individual descriptions. For the hall, there are four lanterns affixed to the walls (between the doors) illuminated by continual flame. Having light on both sides does much to minimize shadows.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The door to room 56 has a sign that says “Open for Boarders. Knock on the Rose Door”. (It is not the same handwriting as in the South Fae Hall).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The door to room 57 has as a spear carved into the center of it with a raven on each side. (The carving is of good amateur quality).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The door to room 60 has a brass vase attached to the middle of it containing three carved wooden roses, a peep-hole that can be covered from the inside, and a small brass knocker.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The doors to room 55, 58, and 59 have nothing especially identifying.</li> </ul>There is a sheet covering a painting (?) at the north end of hall. It radiates strong Divination and Illusion.  Under the cover is actually a 3' wide by 4' tall oval mirror.  The mirror has a frame made of ebony with mithral letters on the top side saying "Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall..." in common. The mirror itself is glassteel over silver.Anyone asking the mirror a question about a personal characteristic (such as "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest one of all.")  will cause a vaguely human face to appear and give an answer.  The answer depends on the asker.Since the Tesseract erupted in the South Fae Hall (above room 70), it has misbehaved and Myrsina has covered it.  The reaction depends on how succeptable the victim is to the warping (see room 53).<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For a being who is not susceptible the mirror will blather an insult that has a good chance of not even being related to the question asked.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For a being who is susceptible, the mirror will scathingly insult them and and the effect is as per a Banshee's Horrifying Visage (just for them).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For the first being each day who is primed, the mirror will begin to be excessively complimentary as the target (and anyone else primed who is viewing it) becomes subject to the effect of a Banshee's Wail (albeit, without the sound of a wail).</li> </ul>Before it was warped its answers were much different (and will be again if the thing in the Tesseract is dealt with):<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For Myrsina it will be something complementary and superlative if possible.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For another Fae of less status than Myrsina, it will be something indicating that Myrsina is better.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For another Fae of greater status than Myrsina, it will be truthful, indicating the being who excells most at that and that the viewer does not.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For an Undead, it will indicate that they are certainly damned to the appropriate place in the afterlife.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For any other being it will be complementary (although not superlative).  The first time it will be used each week per person,  the complemented individual will recieve a bonus point of inspiration that will be usable for up to one week.</li> </ul>Previously, if anyone tried to steal it the mirror would have yelled for help.  Now it will just laugh maniacally.[ATTACH]274772[/ATTACH]The next room created (#49) is in post #513 <a href="https://www.enworld.org/threads/dungeon23.693859/post-8929641" target="_blank">D&D General - #Dungeon23</a> .</blockquote>
