Blueprints Backdrops and The Headquarters © by Øone Roleplaying Games
 Welcome to Blueprints Backdrops!
This set of products is based on Øone’s popular Blueprints. In Blueprints Backdrops, you
will find a fully developed version of one of the locations from the Blueprints line. The Backdrop
features a complete description of the location, and its NPCs and monsters (if any), penned by one of
our talented writers, and portrayed by skillful artists. You also get a simpler version of the map found
in Blueprints and a complete detailed 3D map of the location. The 3D view will help you to visual-
ize the area and better describe it to your players. You can even show it to them, if you wish.

The product is suitable for use with any fantasy RPG system. We have separated the d20
stats from the main text, allowing you to print out either a generic description or a fully d20-statted
version.

But the good stuff is just beginning.

This product takes full advantage of PDF technology, joining old-fashioned style with the most ad-
vanced electronic features. In order to use this product you must use Adobe Acrobat 6 or later.

Using the exclusive “Rule the Dungeon©” feature (look for a big, blue-n-white button – don’t worry,
it won’t print) you will be able to fully customize this product. The 3D map can be changed to show
only one floor (for example), with or without walls (for another), with or without furniture, only an
external view, and on and on, with many combinations possible!

This product has also been designed to help busy referees prepare adventures – or even single en-
counters. Instead of spending extra time scaling the encounters to your party, the d20 stats are scaled
in three different versions suitable for low, mid, and high levels of play, using a “Rule the Dungeon©”
button.

This button lets you choose which level to play, and all the relevant text will change accordingly:
monsters will scale, DCs and traps will change, behaviors of the villains will change, all according to
the level of play you choose.

Note: The original map of the Headquarters appears in Øone’s Blueprints: The Great

GF5. Parlour
The room is decorated, almost floor
to ceiling portraits of the Great City’s
generals. Brass plaques mounted to their
picture frames name some of them, but
the identities of most of the austere faces
must be speculated. The furniture in
this room consists of two couches and
four oversized lounge chairs all uphol-
stered with dark-maroon leather and
trimmed with copper finishing tacks.
The sour scent of apple-flavored pipe
tobacco tinges the air. Two shadowglass
windows allow light to enter from the
southwest wall, and there appear to be
no other exits.
Creatures: The parlour is occasion-
ally used by high-ranking officers who
sit and ponder the deeds of the men
and women whose portraits adorn the
walls. While the room get little use

is from General Robelus Mannig, who
sometimes comes downstairs for a late
evening smoke and glass of fine Logian
brandy when he has trouble sleep-

number of night out of the week).
GF6. Office
This long, narrow room has few
furnishings and plain white walls. Two
more doors exit at opposite ends of the
room, while two shadowglass windows
allow light to enter from the northwest.
The remainder of the room holds two
workbenches and two desks piled high
with scribble-covered parchment.
Creature: During the day, a half
dozen scribes attempt to complete the
massive amount of clerical work as-
sociated with running a military. The
cabinets hold records of thousands
of conscripts, payroll information,
hundreds of order slips and receipts for
horses, new equipment, contact names
of farmers, smiths cooks, projected
budgets, and all manner of confusing
and boring paperwork.

bursts into tears with complaints of
being too bust and completely over-

Creature: The library is run by

Lesur Brown, an aged historian with
fragile bones and a long gray beard.
He’s very particular about the books,
which he values more than his own
life, particularly those that deal in his
favorite subject, dungeon-craft. He is
helpful to a fault, though he permits
no one in the library without him,
and keeps it locked when leaving it
unattended. His normal hours are late
mornings to early afternoons most of
the week when the light is best. He
doesn’t permit reading by candlelight,
or for that matter, any open flame
source within the library. Neither does
he loan books out as he considers his
collection irreplaceable.

GF8. Cartography Room

Double doors open into this spacious
circular room. Numbered bins of tightly
rolled charts and maps line the walls,
and aside from the occasional ink stain
on the floor, everything is immaculate
and neatly organized. Placed through-
out the room sit four round drafting
tables, their wooden tops covered by
thick cardboard mats for cutting and
pinning chart paper. On one of the
tables sits a large abacus and a collection

GF11.Secret Maps
The secret door creaks, revealing a
dark, tiny room. Inside the air hangs
still, stale and moldering.
Sprinkled with dust, cobwebs, and
mouse droppings, the room seems en-
tirely forgotten.
A powerful illusion covers this room,
protecting its secrets from outsiders.
Around the room, dozens of secret
maps hang on the walls. Some contain
records of places unseen, such as lost
cities, sunken ships, and fabled sites

tain maps of the various lands labeled

FF2. Balcony
A 15-foot-wide chestnut plank balcony
encircles the center of tower, stopping
midway through each of the marble
columns in the center. Sections of three-
foot-high wrought-iron railing with a
chestnut handrail circle the edge of the
balcony, each safely anchored between
two of the columns. The drop from
the balcony is about 20-feet and from
the ledge one has a clear view of the
weather clock. The columns continue up
another 20 feet, passing straight through
the stained glass ceiling. As with the
ground floor, doors encircle the exterior
wall. There are a dozen single doors
and two sets of double doors opposite
the main stair landing. Similar 10-foot-
wide corridors open into the west and
east walls. Each of these opens into a
small foyer with two doors in opposite
corners.

few years back, Lesur lost his wife of
many years. While he was never taken
for a socialite, following her death he
withdrew even farther from society,
becoming somewhat of a recluse and
the library became his private sanctuary
from the rest of the world. One day,
while going through some architectural
tomes, Lesur made a startling discovery.
According to faded blueprints from
the empirical ages, the Headquarters
seemed built atop an ancient cistern.
Testing his theory, Lesur cut a small
hole in the floorboards and began
digging. He told no one of his tasks,
taking out sacks of dirt and rock dur-
ing the day when everyone was out
drilling troops. Months later, he struck
a marble slab and beneath it, a gaping
cavernous hole. Soon after, he built
a ladder and excitedly descended into
the depths. Though rumors abound
concerning the cistern’s existence, Lesur
keeps his discovery secret. Recently,
he’s taken to spending lots of time
fishing in the murky waters or making
charcoal sketches of the lost reservoir
by candlelight. In the vastness, he has
found peace in the dripping echoes and
the solitude. What Lesur is soon to dis-
cover is that the cistern is home to an
aboleth who has been waiting for the
historian to share his discover with a
few more individuals, before he strikes.

Lesur Brown
Lesur secured his position as the
Headquarters librarian decades ago;
in fact, none of the current staff can
even recall who appointed him. A

10
looking man with a long beard and
course dry hair like gray straw. His pale
skin wrinkles into thick folds and is
blotched with reddish-brown age spots.
His back stoops slightly and he often
uses a cane to walk. He wears simple
brown robes tied with a knotted rope
and wooden sandals, and for some
strange reason often carries about a
fishing pole.
Captain Lubor Agres
The once talentless Captain Agres
was appointed to his position by the
good graces of his father’s friends; or
perhaps the emptiness of their wallets.
At the time of his conscription, Lubor’s
sword-fighting style was more theatrical
than deadly and even his father specu-
lated that his son only chose the uni-
form because he was too socially inept
to approach women on his own. He
had even less success as a foot soldier.
By the end of basic training, his platoon
members despised him for being a self-
ish bungling fool. After basic, he was
assigned a two-year stint as guardian in
the Uthmar Mines. Three-months in,
he decided to take a nap while on guard
duty. As he snoozed, a troop of goblins
snuck past his position and raised a
camp of miners and guards, leaving few
survivors. Days later, survivors found
the straggling Lubor wandering back
towards the camp and wasted no time
cutting his throat. The three soldiers
made a pact never to tell of their deed
and when they returned, the simply
reported Lubor among the missing.
Then strangely, three weeks later Lubor
returned to base-camp spouting a tale
of epic proportions and dragging a rope
threaded with the heads of 20 goblins
behind him. From that point on, Lubor
quickly excelled, meeting every chal-
lenge and becoming one of the Armies
most brilliant and strategic thinkers,
in fact more than a few speculate the
young captain is fast on his way to
becoming a general.
Still, however well it was hidden, the
truth of Lubor Agres’s death remains.
The current Captain Agres is not a
human, but a strange shapeshifting
aberration known as a phasm. Out
of curiosity, the phasm stole Lubor’s
identity and quite enjoys the calculating
profession of commanding troops. He
also very much enjoys the handsome
inheritance left to him by Lubor’s father
along with the Headquarters close
proximity to the Yei Ling House of
Pleasure.
Description: Miraculously, Lubor
Agres has grown better looking with
age. Though most estimate he’s in his
late-forties, his appearance is closer to a
man half his age. Well-built, he stands
about 6-feet-tall with chiseled features
and piercing green eyes. He keeps
his curly auburn hair cut just above
shoulder-length. When not in uniform,
he dresses in the most fabulous and
expensive clothing he can find.
Denorra
Though an appointed member of
the Headquarters’ guard, most feel the
slight young woman did little to earn
he position saves to meet the per-
sonal fancies of old General Prostolom.
Ironically perhaps, these speculations
bear some truth, however Denorra is
actually both a talented rogue and Gen-
eral’s niece. As the two meet in private
to stage their intimate affair, Denorra
relays all the goings on of the Head-
quarters, covertly keeping him abreast
of possible threats and political rivalry.
Denorra possesses a shy and slightly
unfriendly demeanor. About 18 years
old or so, she’s a somewhat plain, but
pretty girl. She seems diligent in her
concern for the Headquarters security
and her uniform is always in top shape.
Description: Denorra has a light
coffee complexion, wide almond eyes,
and full lips. She wears her hair pulled
back into rows of tight braids all bound
into a single ponytail at the nape of her
11
neck. On the left side of her throat is a
faded green tattoo written in elvish that
reads, “freedom before death.”
Quentin Fargus
As former commanding officer,
Quentin and his troops traveled the
known world. Over the years, his
reputation grew, naming him one of
the foremost explorers of the West-
ern Highlands, the Sliver Glacier, and
the Lost Islands of the Great Ocean.
Though he has long since retired, he
still obsesses over the fabled lands
beyond the Great Ocean. While others
(perhaps even greater explorers than
himself) have followed his example,
none have successfully found these
fabled lands, perhaps with good rea-
son. After decades of study, Quentin
recently unlocked a series of patterns
in the landscape that appear to be
some sort of geometric code; a code he
believes ancient outsiders established to
seal the fabled lands from the mortal
reach. After uncovering the miraculous
codes, Quentin is now more excited
than ever to find someone to take him
to these lands, a place he believes to be
a paradise where death has no power.
Description: Quentin is a wiry for
a gnome, with a slight pot-belly and a
receding brownish-gray hairline. De-
spite approaching old age, he remains
quite spry, excitable, somewhat impa-
tient, and speaks almost too quickly for
mortal comprehension.
Adventure Seeds
Hook #1: Marol Agres suspects
that his nephew isn’t all that he seems.
His suspicions compounded following
the recent passing of his brother, and
Lubor’s subsequent inheritance of his
father’s sizable fortune. He offers to pay
players to investigate Lubor and bring
him whatever evidence they can find
about his miraculous rise through the
military ranks. Marol still has a more
than a few contacts within the military
and can manage to get them all jobs as
Headquarter guards.
Hook #2: Cartographer and noted
explorer Quentin Fargus is partial
correct in his recent discoveries; the
Fabled Lands do exist- however they
are no paradise. On the contrary, the
ancient formulas open a gate between
world where fiends have become native
outsiders and cannot be banished. An
astral deva contacts players and tasks
them with subtly altering Quentin’s
work so that his calculations can-
not open the gate. A low-profile task
requiring the utmost secrecy. At first,
the job is simple and the trusting Car-
tographer fails to notice any significant
changes. But when Quentin cross-
references his current notes with his
prized possession (an ancient map of
the Fabled Lands), he becomes delu-
sional and paranoid, even murderous
of any who would deny night him the
rewards of discovering paradise before
his death. Players must locate his secret
room, and find his map before the dark
forces of the world become aware of it.
Hook #3: General Malmot recently
caught Denorra snooping through
some of his files. Malmot caught and
Quentin Fargus
12
arrested her before she could escape.
Now she awaits trial for high treason.
General Prostolom too may be called
to the courts to explain their intimate
meetings. General Prostolom fears for
her life, but is unsure how to prove
her innocence without jeopardizing
his own position or her safety, for
she would have many enemies should
anyone discover their true relationship.
The General needs the players to slip
into his rival’s quarters and steal the
documents Denorra was searching for,
documents that incriminate Malmot
in several fraudulent military frauds.
Unfortunately, they’ve limited time. As
soon as Malmot realizes that Denorra
is no foreign spy, he rushes to his files
destroy any damning evidence.
Designer’s Notes
I started this piece with a lot more
stat blocks, then at some point I real-
ized that was probably ridiculous, both
for me a designer and for the poor GM
stuck with pages of stat blocks with
slight variation for each general and
captain. I found it easier just to wing
the differences when GMing, or if need
be make a couple of side notes for vari-
ations in equipment.
That said, I tried to include plot
hooks that might really disrupt the
military nature of the HQ. Instead of
typical warmongering things, I tried to
make intriguing mysteries and arcane
puzzles to attract the attention of non-
martial classes, giving everyone in the
party a reason to stop by.

Crippling Strike (Ex): A rogue with this
ability can sneak attack opponents
with such precision that her blows
weaken and hamper them. An
opponent damaged by one of her
sneak attacks also takes 2 points of
Strength damage. Ability points lost
to damage return on their own at the
rate of 1 point per day for each dam-
aged ability.
Defensive Roll (Ex): The rogue can roll
14
with a potentially lethal blow to
take less damage from it than she
otherwise would. Once per day, when
she would be reduced to 0 or fewer
hit points by damage in combat
(from a weapon or other blow, not
a spell or special ability), the rogue
can attempt to roll with the damage.
To use this ability, the rogue must
attempt a Reflex saving throw (DC =
damage dealt). If the save succeeds,
she takes only half damage from the
blow; if it fails, she takes full damage.
She must be aware of the attack and
able to react to it in order to execute
her defensive roll—if she is denied
her Dexterity bonus to AC, she can’t
use this ability. Since this effect
would not normally allow a character
to make a Reflex save for half dam-
age, the rogue’s evasion ability does
not apply to the defensive roll.

Amorphous (Ex): Lubor in his natural
form has immunity to poison, sleep,
paralysis, polymorph, and stunning
effects. It is not subject to critical hits
and, having no clear front or back,
cannot be flanked.
Resilient (Ex): Lubor has a +4 racial
bonus on Fortitude and Reflex saves
(included in the statistics block).
Alternate Form (Su): Lubor can assume
any form of Large size or smaller as a
standard action. This ability func-
tions as a polymorph spell cast on
itself (caster level 15th), except that
Lubor does not regain hit points for
changing form. Lubor can remain in
his alternate form until he chooses
to assume a new one or return to his
phasm form.

New Feat
Bibliophile
Deep appreciation for books has
perfected your ability to quickly locate
important information from their pages
and has made you a master of using
them to answer all manner of questions.
Benefit: Provided you have a book
on the subject in question at hand, you
can use it to make Knowledge skill
checks, even if you are untrained in the
specific knowledge.
Each minute you spend attempting
to research an answer grants you a +1
bonus to the appropriate Knowledge
check, however the total bonus is lim-
ited to the size of the book. Every 100
pages a book contains grants the reader
a +1 bonus, so a 500 page book poten-
tially grants a +5 bonus to the relative
Knowledge skill check, but only if the
reader spends at least 5 minutes looking
for the answer.
New Item
Shadowglass
Dwarven glassblowing techniques
created this durable, one-way ebon-
tinted glass. When viewed from the ex-
terior side, everything behind blurs and
twists into intangible shadowy shapes.
From the opposite side, the view is
crystal-clear and during complete dark-
ness, the glass enhances any shapes
beyond as if the viewer possessed
darkvision with a 60ft-range (though
the effect is non-magical). Unfortu-
nately, shadowglass is extremely heavy,
difficult to work with, and provides no
special benefit when used in sections
less than two square feet. Shadowglass
has a hardness of 5, 6 hp per inch of
thickness, and a Break DC 22.
