K is for karst, where dissolution and erosion takes place, and caverns are formed.
Because I
proselytize about geology, and I have discovered isometric graph paper...
The flagstoned walls and floors of the
Alphabet Dungeon merge with a limestone cavern, formed over eons.
Moist walls glisten in the lamplight, and our party steps into the musty dark. What denizens occupy these maze-like caverns, filled with interconnecting passages and dead ends? Myconids, undead, troglodytes...
The tunnels vary in width from 3 to 10 feet, and similarly, in height. Stalactites, stalagmites, and other karst features make for challenging passage. Deep within the caverns, an underground stream connects three caverns, and inundates a fourth. Characters lost in one stream may emerge in another cavern, but if they are unconscious or weakened, they may disappear into the abyssal depths, never to be seen again.
