[QUOTE="DM_Matt, post: 2455079, member: 1213"] A young woman with glasses has been silently poring over books and papers. Those with relevant knowledge skills can also determine that the patches on her uniform identify her to be a lieutenant in the intelligence division of the Waterdeep City Guard. She finally speaks up, her quite, scratchy voice taking a moment to get people's attention "Those blueprints will take some time. They are on file somewhere in Castle Waterdeep, but the librarian lives off premises. Where are some details in our coastal defense files for the contingency that it needs to be converted into a defensive structure. The building is just off the Cliffride at a relatively high point. The building is 120 feet tall and 50 feet in diamete rand can see out to sea for miles. Most of the inside is taken up with long stairways wrapping around a central shaft. In the central shaft is a mechanical elevator...<she excitedly goes into excruciating detail about how it works>... ... the admiral interrupts, very annoyed "ACHEM, Lieutenant Kiran!"... She moves on "Sorry sir...The first fifty feet are only shafts and stairs. 5 feet of stairs on each side, 5 foot shaft, 15 feet more on each side to the outer wall, which is 5 feet thick. Next are three floors divided into four rooms along the outside of the shaft and stairs. The bottom one is where the keepers live. Two bedrooms, one living room, and a kitchen. The two above them are full of storage. Then there is the lighthouse equipment itself, which takes up the center area above and around the top of the shaft. That area is where the lighthouse machinery is. Suffice it to say it uses some magical light sources with mirrors and lenses. It has a balcony all around and plate glass windows.
