Bavlorna's cottage

Located in Prismeer, in the Soggy Court Bavlorna's Cottage is a huge tree with lots of ropes/strings/flags tied to it.

## Entry Pond

The Entry room is basically a large stinky pool of stagnant water, with a lily pad and a dressing mirror in opposite corners.

> A recessed pool lined with moldy clay tiles takes up most of this large square room. Stagnant water fills the depression to a depth of one foot. Rising from the pool’s center is the head of a stone well that gives off an unpleasant, pungent odor. In one corner of the pool stands a tall, dirty, freestanding mirror in an oval frame, and floating on the water is a large lily pad.

> Creaky wooden floorboards are arranged in a ten-foot-wide raised walkway around the pool. This walkway is crowded with shelves, tables, and stools in all shapes and styles. Almost every available surface is littered with stacks of dirty plates, scraps of food, and old junk. Dressing dummies are pushed together in one corner, and a wooden staircase spirals up from another corner. Five closed doors lead from the room.

In the northeast corner of the room there are 7 dressing dummies. 6 of the dummies are wearing terribly stitched clothes and the 7th is naked but has a black witch's hat on.

In the northwest corner a spiral staircase rises into the rest of the house. There is one door on the west wall, leading into a grostesque display of taxidemy. To the south, a trap door leads out of the house and a door leads onto a porch.

There are 3 doors on the east wall. The southern most door leaders to a small room with a magical cupboard within it. The middle door leads to a staircase on the outside of the house that also leads to an upper floor.

**Still Unexplored:** The lilly pad is somehow magical, and no one has looked at the mirror yet. No one has gone up the outter staircase.

## Room of Taxidermied Grotesqueries

To the left/west of the entry-pond is a medium sized room. Solus took a look in and decided they didn't need to go further. Later, ToMF did go in. But he too wandered the f--- away after taking a real look around.

> A horse’s head leers at you with glossy eyes, its lips drawn back from pointed yellow teeth. The head is affixed to a large, eight-limbed armature made of wicker and wire, situated so that it faces the doorway where you entered. Near it is a wooden crate.
> Flies buzz about this disordered room, landing occasionally on animal carcasses that lie strewn in small piles. On a low table rests an assortment of tools—saws, knives, scrapers, a hand-cranked drill, sewing thread and needles, and awls—around several taxidermic subjects in various stages of completion. A shelf that looks on the verge of collapse leans against the wall between two windows and bears the weight of dozens of stuffed horrors. Each one is an artless combination of two or more animals.

## Hourglass Cupboard Room

Contains a really fancy looking wardrobe/cupboard. The cupboard locks with a silver filigree hourglass. The cupboard can be unlocked by rotating the hourglass.

## Fabric and Dolls

Door located on the east wall, northernmost of the three rooms. The room is filled with fabrics / yarn / string scraps. Two fabric dolls were found in it.

## Southern Porch

The southern porch is quite nice, really. A chorus of frogs greet you as enter. The frogs will not respond to "speak with animals" converstaions. It is is horrible, they would prefer to speak common with you, if only you would ask. But they cannot dignify that magical attempt at frog. ((This is Buckie's player being a snarky turd and making a pun on frogs / french and how they hate it when non-native frenchspeakers try to speak french at them)).

## Upstair Hall of Portraits

> The walls of this dank hallway are covered with scores of portraits depicting grumpy, sad, frightened, and angry people. The figures include humans, elves, halflings, bullywugs, and goblins, among others. The portraits are rendered in a variety of mediums, including paintings, etchings, and sketches. All are displayed in gaudy, gilded frames.

> A framed oval mirror two feet wide and five feet tall hangs in the middle of one wall.
