Twilight Castle

Twilight Castle is an original, key location in The Disney Club. Under the ownership of the powerful wizard Yen Sid, it is a mighty castle that acts as a sanctuary to all magic users, and as a place for others who wish to practice magic to learn. It also acts as a hub for all adventurers that are dedicated to exploring and understanding the world, with it famously being founded/acting as the original headquarters to both a group of powerful wizards & sorceresses the Society of Explorers and Adventurers many centuries ago.

## Main Locals

### Foucault Pendulum

A foucault pendulum is suspended under the Fortress's Sundial tower.

### Illusion Room

The Illusion Room features five murals painted on the walls, floor and ceiling that become one seamless scene of when viewed through a special lens, with them all coming together to form a painted recreation of the devastating eruption of Mount Prometheus.

### Explorers' Hall

Explorers' Hall celebrates a number of historical figures in fields of magic, exploration and science, many of which were former members of S.E.A. and adventurers from the past that've had close ties to the people of the castle. This also includes many figures that were deceased before S.E.A.'s 1538 establishment, put up to acknowledge their influence on the Society's creation and ideals.

### Hall of Princesses

Not too far from the Explorers' Hall is a hall of portraits dedicated to both the Earth's most famous Princesses of the past and the one's the castle's attendance & magic have helped in the past. Among the portraits are: Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, Fa Mulan, Giselle, Tiana, Rapunzel, Merida, Anna & Queen Elsa and Moana.

### Navigation Center

The Navigation Center contains an old sea map detailing many of the routes the adventurers of the past sailed. It even includes remote-control boats that can sail across it as a fun little recreational activity.

### Alchemy Laboratory

Located in one of the castle's turrets, the Alchemy Lab was part of S.E.A.'s research into the viability of transmuting common metals into gold and silver and trying to find an elixir of life. The resident alchemist of the laboratory can occasionally be seen roaming the fortress grounds.

### Chamber of Planets

The Chamber of Planets is an elaborate planetarium containing a moving model of the solar system.

### The Master's Tower

Yen Sid's personal tower, where he practices his magic and rests.

## Notes

Twilight Castle itself is actually a hodgepodge of several Disney-based locations.

* Obviously it takes inspiration from Yen Sid's Tower, as it's his main residence in the series.
* The castle's name is taken from Twilight Town in Kingdom Hearts, mostly to give it a cool, mysterious name.
* The building being a castle at all is meant to act as a nod to the many Disneyland/World Parks' many great castles.
* It also takes some cues from Hexside School of Magic and Demonics from The Owl House as it offers magic lessons to anyone who wishes to learn it. But unlike Hexside, where magic was taught in the form of a school ala Hogwarts, the lessons here are taught a little more like a typical student/teacher dynamic, particularly like the Jedi Masters and their Padawans in Star Wars (though the teachers are a lot less... morally questionable than the Jedi order was).
* One of the castle's biggest non-magical influences is Tokyo DisneySea's Fortress Explorations, right down to it acting as S.E.A.'s headquarters, as a way to connect it further to the show's blending of magical and adventure elements.

* For the time being, until a true design for it is made, the Castle's exterior is represented by Kingdom Hearts' Disney Castle.
