The Vase of Katzu Part 17
The Vase of Katzu
The third room on the right is bare. There is no furniture or trappings, not even bones. There is a small scorch mark in the middle of the once fine carpets where there was an intense fire.
For the GM, this was the nursery of the two youngest children, one and three. The master, before the curse took him completely, wanted to spare the babies the pain of the curse so he killed them then burned all their belongings and them in a hot, magical fire, so he would not be burdened by his deed.

The Vase of Katzu Part 16
The Vase of Katzu
The second room on the right hand side has been ripped apart. Once fine furniture is busted into dozens of pieces. Silk drapes are in shreds. Vases and sconces are smashed. Blankets are strewn about, dotted with blood. The room holds many skeletons and rotted corpses, some of which come to life at your entrance.
For the GM this is one of the daughter's room who has gone completely insane. When the party begins to fight the undead, she will appear and attack the party. She is slightly higher level then the party, but level can be adjusted as needed. If they by-pass her room she is in the sitting room with her brother.

The Vase of Katzu Part 15
The Vase of Katzu
The first door on the right is unlocked, but the door is shut. Inside is a large sitting room with an adjacent sleeping room and a bathing room. The doors for those rooms are wide open. The room's furniture is in good shape, books sit on the tables as if in the process of being read, and lamps glow, illuminating the room. There is a small chest to one side, which is locked. The bathing room has a large tub, (big enough for two people to stretch out in it), and towels and rugs. The bedroom has a well made wood framed bed, with lots of lovely blankets upon the bed, along with a clothing closet with clothes that are actually in good shape but centuries out of faashions.
For the GM, the occupant of this room, one of the sons, named Peter, is in the sitting room, at the moment, reading a book. If the group makes enough noise he will come investigate. The chest has some good, a few magic rings, and some books with spells. The lock is a medium challenging lock.

The Vase of Katzu Part 14
The Vase of Katzu
The second floor is just as large as the floor below. This floor is clearly bedrooms and seems to be fairly dust free. The hall way is very large and ends in an open sitting room. The doors are closed, except for the one nearest the sitting room.
For the GM, most of the rest of the family are up here, though you can adjust the number as needed. The only one not on this floor is the master of the family. He is up stairs, in the master suites. There are six bedrooms, three of which have occupants. Jarvis does come up stairs and dust and clean on occasion, so it's not to dirty up here. There are some fresher corpses up here and a few live victims that have not been drained yet.
