Stone Step

Stone Step is a catch-all name for both the circle of large stones in northern Port Brogan and the ruined dwarven temple beneath it. There are four stones in the circle, each reading one of "honor", "fate", "destiny", and "loyalty" in Dwarven runes and Common graffiti. A door buried under two feet of earth at the base of the "fate" stone leads into the temple.
By the spring of 1442, the temple had been forgotten by the inhabitants of Port Brogan and was in grave disrepair, though there were several necromantic alarm systems in place.
== Layout ==
:This is the layout of the temple as of the spring of 1442.
A door at the foot of the "fate" stone leads to a central room in the temple. This room has four doors in it, also each labeled "honor", "fate", "destiny", and "loyalty". The "loyalty" door leads to a room full of shields with various dwarven clan heraldries. A set of double doors at the end of this hall leads into dwarven catacombs. The "fate" (?) door leads to two sarcophagi, one containing a dwarf and the other containing a halfling. The dwarven sarcophagus has Moradin made a bet with Nerull engraved on it, and the halfling sarcophagus has Olidammara made a bet with Nerull engraved on it. The (either honor or destiny) door leads to a collapsed hallway with a skull of a great wyvern under the rubble. The (either honor or destiny) door leads to a room with a hidden altar and geometric puzzle that has the Eye of Moradin and other treasures at its center. A passage off of this room leads into a series of caverns that seem to be connected to the Underdark of Port Brogan.
== The Party's Adventures ==
:See main article: Episode Seven: Buried Doors? Under My Stone Step? It's More Likely than You Think.
The Toggenburg Corporation investigated Stone Step in order to find out more about the civilian disappearances in that area of Port Brogan. They discovered that Tyro Avampour was attempting to break into the temple from the Underdark, and that he was looking for something relating to Nerull. The party, of course, buggered this plan all to hell.
=== Traps ===
*The party found a skeletal dragon with emeralds for eyes in the main room, which animated and attacked when they approached it.
*Fab Dick encountered a water elemental in the "fate" (?) room. 
*Ulfgar and Tobo discovered a lever that animated all of the corpses in the catacombs. 
=== Major Items ===
*Ethan of Malvont found a piece of an amulet in the dwarven sarcophagus in the "fate" room.
