[QUOTE="Haltherrion, post: 5119230, member: 18253"] That's a good one to have. Sometimes the castellan had his own mini-chambers and small hall in the gate house. Sort of a big keep for the lord with a big hall and his chambers and smaller set of chambers and a working hall (for when the lord wasn't present) for the castellan. Depending on what you are doing with the castle, having a second "HQ" to the castle and one more likely to be used might be a nice little surprise for the players. An aviary might have its own keep- one could imagine fairly large stables for flying creatures plus roof top access. And with hungry flying creatures, perhaps fairly large stocks of beef outside the walls or in an outer ward. You could add an observatory perhaps if the lord is a astronomer/astrologist enthusiast or if there is the appropriate person in the castle. Gardens in a cloister or a puzzle room. Should probably have lots of storerooms for food and war materials- the ground floor of all keeps and towers could be supplies. In addition to the well you mentioned, possibly multiple cisterns. Also postern gates... [/QUOTE]
