The areas of the crypts are separated by either iron portcullis gates or stone doors. The portcullis gates allow characters to see through them into the areas beyond. Most doors and gates are opened using levers on the “front side” of the door, closest to the entrance to the dungeon. Pulling a lever to raise or lower a door or gate is an action. Once open, a door or gate stays open until the lever is pulled again.Ceilings. Unless otherwise indicated, corridors and rooms in the crypts have ten-foot-high ceilings.Light. Many of the areas on the first level are lit by magical torches imbued with continual flame. In other areas there is no light except what the characters bring with them.[/SPOILER]</blockquote>
