[QUOTE="Synthetik Fish, post: 2538976, member: 8746"] Some good ideas to keep in mind with a Mage tower: A real mage would have protection from teleporting in or out of the tower, as well as scrying. I'd do (in a lower chamber) an anti-magic area coupled with a couple particularly nasty beasties. Maybe things with high AC and such, as it will be hard for the party to cope with not being able to use magic against it, and not being able to escape (hopefully! for example, they walk in the front door, a huge porticullis drops, and they find themselves in like a couryard with a Gargoyole, Dragon, Elemental, etc.) Undead in anti-magic is fun! If you want to be REALLY nasty, make it something that has damage reduction with something magic ;) Since no teleporting is allowed, I'd do some very well hidden secret passage ways, for the mage to wreck havoc with.
