BLACK MOORS WATERWAYS ROOM 28 (SECTION 3)

Room 7 - The Vault of the Coin Purse

Room 7 is on the level of the waterways but is not actually connected to the waterways. The only way to access it is down the heavily guarded steps from above.

This basement is the location of the vault for The Coin Purse, a very popular gambling den in The Adventurers’ Ward. Drinks and coins flow freely here in a non-stop party atmosphere. The vault is protected at any time by a dozen guards all of whom have extensive combat training.

The vault walls are foot thick stone, the door is made of steel and has a Very Difficult lock. Additionally there are magic wards on the door that will deal a Very High amount of lightning damage to anyone who attempts to open the door without the properly enchanted key.

Only two people have a key to the vault - Cassius Cleves, halfling owner of The Coin Purse and Ariana Farlight, the human mage who made the keys and set the wards. Both are lords in the local crime syndicate. Both are quite skilled in their expertise and both have considerable influence throughout Black Moors.
