But Alzar has also created a portal in the back on the two undead storage rooms. If you’ll recall, only someone with 20 intelligence or greater could understand how to make the portals in Castanimar’s tower, but now Alzar has that info in books and that intelligence. He can order all of the creatures in the back room to pour into the main chamber at a moment’s notice. He can also order all of the creatures in the giant undead chamber at the front of the complex to empty out a few miles away in a nearby plateau. The goal is to unload onto a party that invaded his place or to get his army away from a major threat while he worked. He has duplicates of all of his spellbooks, valuable books from the library, and laboratory and workshop.
That’s it – the entire complex has just two rooms before arriving at the main room, just three branches off it – one ends at a pantry less than 50 feet later, the other has nothing but bedrooms, and the last goes through a library, workshop/lab, and corridors into an area with just four rooms off it. There are not a lot of places in here, and the group of people that visit or live here tend to mix together.
He has normal bedrooms for when people like Estaish or Maerie and Aleigha come to visit. Wassilon has carved a beautiful complex. Gamholt is a permanent resident, and Thedoran and Vala are useful apprentices, and others are here too, such as the Dokkalfar wizard, Nilonim, and he even has been getting occasional visits from others he has encountered, assisted, and traded with – from wizards of many alignments to other-planar guests such as a certain alu-fiend and others, to wizards, apprentices, a few clerics of the cult of death, and even Hrothgr and Nigel have each visited twice.
The complex has built in protection against scrying from outside with various amulets built into the walls along the complex. Only by breaking into the wall would they be discovered though. This enables Alzar to scry out, but none to scry it.
