Also known as the Anti-Virtue dungeons, the seven ancient dungeons of Britannia are home to those creatures that cannot co-exist with a Virtuous society. Buried deep beneath the ground, the dungeons are as varied as the creatures within …
Despise
Located northwest of the city of Britain, Dungeon Despise houses a strange collection of some of the humanoid races of Sosaria. The upper level is thick with Lizardmen, while the lower levels hold Ettins, Trolls, Ogres and the hard headed Ogre Lords. A few travelers have also reported seeing Elementals made of acid roaming the depths of this dungeon as well.
Covetous
A short distance northwest from Vesper and southwest of Minoc lies the den of greed known as Dungeon Covetous. Originally the mine that fed Minoc with a great deal of ore, it is now a fetid lair of undead. Perhaps miners should not have tread into the lower levels and unleashed the evil that now haunts the passageways therein. The bottom level of Dungeon Covetous houses Dragons and their ilk. Only the strong willed and brave of heart dare venture that deep. All travelers should watch their step for Covetous is known to have many traps in the form of flame spouts.
Shame
North of the Skara Brae mainland docks and southwest of the city of Yew lies the training ground for Trinsic’s finest paladins. The Dungeon Shame, to its deepest reaches, is filled with nearly every type of elemental being found in Sosaria. Magnificent beasts such as the Kraken also dwell with in. A wicked fate befalls the adventurer who journeys deep to the two towers in the lower levels that house vile mages who seem to have gone completely insane.
Destard
“Dragons den” sums up Dungeon Destard in two short, but concise, words. The main, and largest level is a cave of titanic proportions that houses many dragons, drakes and wyverns. A notable attraction to this level is at the northwest. There you will find an ankh that, like the Virtue Shrines, has the power to resurrect you should you fall victim to the dragons and their ilk. The second level holds more dragons, and a crazed mage who wanders the area with a few demons. The lowest level of Destard is the lair of the Ancient Wyrm. Any who dare to fight this beast are either brave of heart, or completely mad.
Wrong
Set back in the mountains far east of the city of Yew is the Dungeon Wrong. In the day of old it was a prison meant to house the direst criminals. Now it houses brigands and a large number of insane mages. Also you will find the Executioner here. Avoid him at all costs.
Deceit
Set in the center of an arctic isle north of Moonglow lies the entrance to the Dungeon Deceit. A place of appalling evil, Dungeon Deceit is occupied by all manner of undead creatures. Adventurers would be well suited in bringing a strong silver weapon if they dare to dive the depths of this foul place. A warning to travelers: do not touch the magic brazier on the first level.
Hythloth
Far out in the sea east of Britain sits the Isle of Fire, and upon it, the Dungeon Hythloth. Many consider this the most wretched place in all the lands. Every stone in the depths of Dungeon Hythloth is foul and corrupted with pure evil. The denizens of this vile hole include Imps, Gargoyles, Hell hounds, Demons and the foulest of foul creatures know as Balrons: The Slayer, Lord of the Abyss, and the Collector of Souls. Many have ventured to Hythloth. Few have ever returned.
