Overview

Negative300.png

Troll King's Courtyard (-300T): The Troll King's Palace dominates the western half of this level. His courtyard is filled with Troll Sentry's that wield RHammers and Staves, and Hobgoblins that are capable of casting lightning on the unsuspecting adventurer, thanks to their magical training under the Yasnaki sorcerers. In the caverns to the East of the Courtyard. more sentries wander. Troll King's Palace (-240): Guarding the Troll King's palace is a unit of elite Troll guards, equipped with very strong weapons, and a lot of skill in using these weapons. These Elite guards are hand selected and extensively trained to provide for his protection.

The Troll king himself is located in his Throne area in the far south part of the palace. He is a very it mean fighter, with a great amount of health. It is rumoured that on his body is a talisman that will grant access to a secret area, and also provides protection against Death Spells and magical stuns. Hidden within this secret area is the famed sword, Hummingbird, which was originally wrought by Vulcan, and then stolen by the Yasnaki before they came to the Underkingdom. However, it is also rumoured that unseen forces will batter any that enter the secret area to claim the Sword.

Below The Troll Kings Palace are the Jail and the Library. Both of these areas are well guarded by more of the Troll Elite Guard. Buried deep within the Jail, The Toll king holds the Kobold Princess captive. She is being held for ransom, which King Kookoo of the Kobolds refuses to pay. Instead, the king offers a reward to the brave adventurer that can lead the princess back to safety. Other cells in the jail contain either other prisoners, or more likely Troll Elite that are being disciplined.

The Library contains very few books of real worth, though much of the history of the Underkingdom resides there. Unfortunately, most of the books are very fragile, and the few interesting books have been covered with ale (from careless handling by the Trolls that have no regard for history), making them difficult to read.

As the Yasnaki rebuilt their power, the Troll King became rightfully wary of the brotherhood, So he sealed off the main access to the Yasnaki area that he had previously shared and built a small dungeon to connect the areas. He reasoned that the smaller area would be more defensible and that via the small opening, he could perhaps avail himself of their power in his own behalf. Of course, trying to deal with the Yasnaki was at best a hazardous proposition. Roaming this area are more of the usual orc, troll, and Hobgoblin sentries.
