## Campaign Synopsis ## Campaign Synopsis
Humanity has spread to the stars. Humanity has lost record of what happened to Earth, but it is believed to have
suffered a total biosphere collapse, and in its waning days, spaceships were launched in all directions, humanity's
last chance to find survival among the black, abandoning their doomed world.
Many were invariably lost in the act of desperation, victim to the emptiness of space. The known survivors reached Xi
Tauri, and spread among its many planets. Waking from cyro-sleep, the original explorers staked out humanity's new
future among biomes hospitable and not, establishing agrarian villages, land stations, and basic terraformed lands.
As time has passed, humanity has salvaged its roots, good and ill. Travel between the stellar system and its planets is
long but commonplace. Civilization resides in hundreds of scattered settlements across the planets, moons, occasional
asteroid or comet, and space stations. The system's government focuses on a core set of planets, exploiting the
resources of the rest of the system for only its settlements. The outer worlds rely on local law, and some remnants of
the initial settlement of the system still drift in orbit, latent.

Resting in this room adds +2 to a recovery roll, and grants one subtle cypher. The corridor continues north to the
[Gathering Grounds](#12-gathering-grounds) and east to the ???.

The kobolds in this room are what remains of a party sent to gather more food for the kobolds holed up in the front of
the dungeon. They have been assumed lost by the main settlement, but have survived here on the water and moss.
**KOBOLDS:** (level 2, Speed defense as level 3). Wary as they are, they can be negotiated with and even convinced to
leave where they have taken shelter. If communicated with, they explain that facing dangers from monsters within, they
held here, assuming other kobolds would come to rescue them. If the kobolds are reunited with the main group, the party
will surely be rewarded, either in form of gathered treasure, or perhaps gaining some followers for part of the dungeon.
## 15. Trap-Worker Room
> The scuttle of homunculi can be heard in this room filled with arcane levers, gears, and switches. The room is small
> and overwhelmingly chaotic, as the homunculi scuttle across the implements, whatever purpose they serve.
While some parts of the dungeon's traps are magical, many are mundane and nature, and remotely armed or rearmed via this
room. The homunculi are creations of the dungeon itself, meant to tend to the traps and undertake similar upkeep through
some of the dungeon floors. They do not actively target any traps, but rather just keep the dungeon running.
**HOMUNCULI:** (level 2). The small stone homunculi ignore the PCs by default. It's entirely possible the PCs pass
through this room, disturbing and affecting nothing. If the party messes with any of the trap controls, the homunculi
try to push the PCs away and scurry around, resetting or undoing whatever the PCs did. They are not hostile, and attack
only when being attacked. They can be reasoned with, or convinced to take certain actions (such as refilling the
[Flooded Room](#10-flooded-room)), but they do not speak common, so special action will have to be taken to communicate
with them. If destroyed, the dungeon spawns new homunculi in 1d10 hours.
## 18. The Hall of Shadows
If the party does not have the *shadowward*:
> This room is pitch black, and even your brightest light sources seem to get partially engulfed by the darkness. It is
> nearly impossible to see more than a couple feet in front of you, but you have seemingly no choice but to press

If the party *does* have the *shadowward*:
> As you enter this room, the shadows seem to shy away from you, creating an area of perfect visibility around you, and
> you can vaguely make out misaligned floor tiles on the way to the other end of the hall. A cage of shadow rests in the
> center of the room.
This room tests the thoroughness of the PCs. They would do well to turn back if they cannot see, lest they almost
certainly trigger four pit traps (as *Godforsaken*, Stealth as level 6 without the *shadowward*, Stealth as level 2 with
it). The four pit traps cross the width of the hall, and are spread evenly across the length of the hall, making
avoiding them difficult if not detected.
**SHADOW CAGE:** The cage, made of material shadow, holds *bounding boots* (as *Godforsaken*). It is easily opened if
the *shadowward* is touched against the cage. The cage is small enough to be carried, though it eminates a small amount
of conspicuous shadow, and feels cold.
**EXITS:** A stone door on the west end leads to ???, and an alike door on the east end to ???.
