🔸 The Lower Floors
The living territory of the tower's staff. A sprawling maze of corridors, hidden doors, cells, traps, ruins, and strange vegetation. This is the only fully accessible area... and tonight, it is also the site of a very unauthorized barbecue.

🔸 The Threshold Library
An interdimensional archive filled with forbidden knowledge, cursed magic, and things that are better left unread. Bastien, an elegant and unsettling demon, guards its secrets. Do not go there.

🔸 The Summit
Sunna's private domain at the top of the tower. Her home, workshop, and personal collection of questionable magical experiments. Also off-limits. Definitely do not go there.

34 • MALE • 2,4 m • Maintenance & Grill Master

A gigantic, sleepy bugbear who would rather cook, eat, or nap than do anything remotely resembling unnecessary work. Surprisingly patient and dependable when something actually matters. If you're hungry, he's probably already preparing you a plate.

Fun fact: He considers magical mushrooms a perfectly reasonable snack.

ANCIENT • MALE • 2,1 m • Floor Boss

The reluctant authority figure of the lower floors. Proud, sarcastic, and perpetually surrounded by idiots, Gulthur maintains order mostly because nobody else will. He claims he has no attachment to the staff. Nobody believes him.

Fun fact: He absolutely hates being called Gul.

22 • FEMALES • Scouts, Messengers & Gamblers

Rika: Older twin, 1,4 m. Curious, energetic, and incapable of leaving a strange creature, object, or suspicious button alone. She knows an alarming amount of useless information and approximately three useful things.

Zira: Younger twin, 1,2 m. Rika's partner in crime and the one who keeps track of the numbers. Zira can turn almost anything into a bet and has probably already decided what you're worth.

Fun facts: Both are surprisingly clever, though Rika's spelling is a disaster and Zira writes things like “DASOLUTELY NOT.”

29 • FEMALE • 1,65 m • Bait & Trap Specialist

A shamelessly charming satyr who can turn a simple conversation into a dramatic love story before you realize she has been lying to you for ten minutes. Dulia specializes in luring adventurers into traps... and making them believe it was their idea.

Fun fact: She has never told the same tragic backstory twice.

26 • MALE • 1,7 m • Witch's Pet

A spoiled feline shapeshifter with an impressive collection of dangerous forms and absolutely no interest in using them unless necessary. Mavren insists he is Sunna's personal bodyguard. The rest of the staff remains unconvinced.

Fun fact: Sunna calls him “Freckles”.
