This collection of kindling will be a good warm-up, and a chance for Winifred Whitegraves to put her latest transcription of Solomon's Scorching Scythes to the test.

Fine, bandwagon.

Where I live, you posted at around one in the morning. The voting phase won't end for a few more hours (7 PM EST). Also, as funny as stumbling upon Dracula in the second room of the castle is, I'm going to go ahead and limit the maximum size of new rooms to 6 squares.

Other than that the next GM gets to decide on how to handle Dracula's early appearance. He wouldn't be the first villain to do that.

It wouldn't be the first Castlevania to go "Hi, I'm Dracula, welcome to my castle. You hosed up." *Real Castlevania Starts Here*

I don't know if you do alternative voting, so if you just do one-option take the first one on each line.

As the adrenaline subsides, you take a moment to appraise the library in its entirety - an ordered, well-maintained stockpile of magical texts (including trap books, you note with a grimace)... and certainly the mundane as well. Dracula has had almost forever to compile the knowledge of ages. For what fell purpose you do not know, but there's one way to keep him from achieving it: slay him and the library will be inert, and perhaps a treasure, if Dracula doesn't take the castle with him.

So you look for a key, but not the kind wardens and treasuries carry. Something to go through the gate to the sustenance/slavery chamber as though it was not there - or tear it off of its hinges. This place has to be organized somehow, not that you know how libraries were managed in late medieval Transylvania, or that Dracula would organize his own library that way, but sifting through the titles should tell you what you need to know.

1. What kind of spell (Key.) do you look for first?
A: The kind that lets me pass through porous objects. Maybe I can stream through them like a vapor. Maybe I can go to any floor I see with no regard for distance. Maybe....
B: The kind that makes doors open. Every lock has its own combination, cut into the key... what if I didn't need the key? Iron rusts, not quite like the oxidation of fuel in fire but oxidation nonetheless... what if I can make it fall away all at once.
C: The kind I already had. My grimoire was the product of ages and had an (admittedly exothermic) answer for almost any question.
Or write in.

"It has been some time since we've had a proper guest in our archives, child."

The hair on the back of your neck stands at attention. He has a librarian, because of course he would. Almost despite yourself, you turn to face him. A tall and gaunt man, in an impeccable if all-black three-piece suit with matching ascot, with a thick head of hair and a full beard, both graying, for maybe God alone knows how long. Compared to him, any mortal would be a child, why not you.

"There is a limit to how much assistance I can provide you despite the master's wishes, but it is looser than you would think: he has never stopped enjoying the challenge and the hunt. And if you have something to contribute to the archives, we might expand them further still."

He clasps his hands, index fingers together and toward the roof. "What would you ask of us, wanderer?"

2. Fill in.
