《The Dungeon System》Chapter 6 - The Master of Beasts
Advertisement
After what seemed like hours of deliberation the Dungeon finally decided what its first real floor would be themed around. It had decided to base its next floor with the intention that its boss would be the Kobold Beast Tamer.
Create New Floor? Y/N
Seriously? What is with the lawyering? Yes I want to make a new floor.
And with that the Dungeon felt a new space open beneath his first floor and he mentaly moved to view it. It was disappointing, merely a stairway leading to his first floor and a circular room,
Geez that's basic, looks like I got to do all the hard stuff myself. First though this room is to boring, cave walls really?
Change Room Texture?
Stone
Brick
Natural
Still not many options, I think brick would do me good here.
And with that the rooms walls, floor, and ceiling change to resemble large crudely worked stone bricks. The Dungeon then proceeded to make a large cavern connected to the stairs leading about a kilometer into the stone. It was only stopped when another message popped up stating that there was no more volume for the second floor and that It was extremely dangerous to continue expanding the floor at this time.
Well, looks like this is all I have to work with at the moment. A large one and a half kilometers long by about a half kilometer wide and tall cavern. Hmm, Environments.
Deep Caves
Plains
City
Well, one of these is not like the other, but plains should work for what I have in mind.
And after the Dungeon selected plains the stone ceiling seemed to vanish, being replaced by an open sky with clouds and a bright sun that shone over the grassy hills that replaced the floor of the cavern. The Dungeon felt that the cavern was still there but could not see it without magical aid.

Ya, I can imagine some poor adventurer walking into the wall thinking it's an open plain. Now what animals to spawn… never mind.
The Dungeon had noticed spawning randomly over the floor was animals common to plains, jackrabbits, cows, horses, and more. There were even trees growing and a small river had formed on one wall and had begun its way across the cavern.
Well, that's new. Okay then what monsters should be present here? Monster store.
Kobold 30 mana
Kobold Warrior 60 mana
Kobold Skirmisher 60 Mana
Lizard 20 mana
Lizard Mount 30 mana
Kobold Shaman 80 Mana
Lesser Snow Deer 120 mana
Lesser Snow Deer Mount 180 Mana
Kobold Beast Tamer 200 Mana
Tamed Lizard 60 Mana
Tamed Lesser Snow Deer 360 Mana
Evolutions
Three hundred and sixty mana? How much do I have right now? Core Status
Core Health 40/40(2/H)
Core Status Intact
Core Connected to Surface True
Core Mana 800/1200(400/D)
Core Level 2
Mana to next level 0/1000
Well, If I want them at least I can get them. For now though I’ll have lesser Lizards in packs randomly throughout the plains. Let them use ambush tactics to deal with unwary adventurers. Now for the boss area, hmm, hold on I have an Idea.
The Dungeon made what appeared to be a small village appear at the end of the cavern, he populated it with Kobolds and at the center of the village was a large enclosure. An open area surrounded by a hexagonal structure open at the end facing the stairway to the first floor. On each wall besides the back one are large doors, behind the doors nothing can be seen. On the back wall are two cages and another doorway sealed off by large bars, The Dungeon then spawned the Kobold Beast Tamer and in each cage besides the two back ones he placed a pack of Tamed Lizards, in the back cages he places one Tames Lesser Snow Deer in each cage. As soon as he did that however something strange happened, the dungeon stopped and watched as the system joined in, like it did with the animals.

Unique structure created “The Arena of Beasts”
The Dungeon watched as his entire structure changed, the front entrance became an archway with a gate ready to drop down behind adventurers, the Cages became feasome portals with ominous plates of steel completely hiding what's behind. Where before there was simply a flat roof now sat rows of seats, sealed off from the arena by a fence. The Kobold Beast Master grew larger, gained a large broadsword and solid leather armor wrapping around its frame. On his head and back lay a lion's skin, its head acting like a helmet for the Kobold. At the entrance appeared a sign, its words both ominous and promising.
The Arena of Beasts
Come one and all and test your mettle against the Champion of Beasts.
The Danger will be lethal, the monsters many, but the prize for defeating the Arena will be beyond your wildest dreams.
Be warned if you lose to the Arena, you may just end up joining the Arena, forever.
Ooh, this is interesting, now I can't wait to see some adventurers try and fail to challenge the Arena. But first some examination of whatever it is the System did.
Champion of Beasts
This Kobold has won honor and mettle in the Arena of Beasts, while previously one of many few can say that they are his equal now. This Kobold stands ready to face any challenger and will call his Tamed Beasts to assist him in battle.
I like this, and with that I would say the Floor is complete. Now to wait for the adventurers to try to defeat the Champion, and ultimately fail.
