The Catacombs

Down the ladder from the lobby of The Wizard's Tower, this darkened hole is one of the only safe places in what the Wizards have dubbed the Catacombs. Some 30 feet below the lobby, the light shines down to the rough stone floor, and glints off of the Statues of the Legends. These golden figures have no explanation for their existence, and depict eleven people of unusual kinds, in some cases, eerily similar to existing adventurers of the tower. They are arranged evenly around the base of the ladder, like the numbers of a clock.

The Catacombs, beyond the entrance, however, are a dangerous place to travel, acting almost as a terrible reflection of the tower above. A dozen tunnels lead outwards in unknown directions, and no tunnel leads the same way twice. They seem to twist and turn without pattern, sometimes ending up in the strangest places. It seems there isn't a corner of the multiverse that can't be reached through the tunnels, but to traverse them safely, one must be either extremely lucky, or have some kind of guide. Neither of which are common among the adventurers. Expeditions into the Catacombs have long been discouraged.
