Dormitory Master Keys
Dormitory residents whisper of a lost chamber that no one has returned from—might these keys be the way in or out?
- Weirdness
- Whispers of shifting spaces stir when keys are jingled
Each portal opened risks temporarily warping the dormitory’s spatial fabric, causing disorienting echoes or brief vanishings of adjacent rooms for several minutes.
A worn iron ring holds seven mismatched keys, their metal mottled with iridescent patinas that shimmer through smoky translucence; keys feel oddly warm and emit faint murmurs in shadowed quiet.
Can unlock any door within the dormitory, revealing secret rooms or portals to unexpected locations; once per use, a key may open a door to a random otherworldly chamber instead of its normal passage.

GM Notes
- Players can try keys on any door in the dormitory, but effects vary unpredictably.
- Using a key to open a random portal disorients nearby characters, imposing a -2 penalty to perception tests for 1d6 minutes.
- Keys hum softly near hidden or celestial doors.
