You (plural) own a dungeon! - Reyweld - 01-21-2017
You own a dungeon. All of you. Collectively. That was the plural you. You were having a grand old time, doing nothing in your empty one room dungeon when SOME ADVENTURER has the audacity to enter.
Ugh. Adventurers are the worst (except for the cute ones, they're okay).
They are a Level 1 Ruffian. How annoying. They begin to poke around the floor.
What are you going to do?

Ask them, "Who dares to enter our realm?"

Ruffians are usually pretty greedy. Offer them one gold piece to guard our empty hoard. If they refuse, point out that there's no actual treasure to take, so this is a pretty good deal for them.
Worst case, they take our one gold and run, but then they're out of our hair and we only spent one gold, so it's all good.

They look around, startled by the strange voice they hear in their mind.
"Jacob doesn't like this!" he screeches, smacking his fist against the wall.

A trapdoor opens above the room, and several kraken tentacles reach down to grab Jacob. They swing, screaming, but he is too weak and is easily restrained and lifted up into the ceiling. A brief snacking sound indicates the kraken has finished this meal.
You couldn't afford to straight up put a kraken in the room, so you hope this will do. (-50 gold)
A brief silence gives you time to relax. However, voices can be heard from outside your realm of power, calling in for Jacob.

Although this could have been a good and cost effective solution to Jacob, it could still be applied to his friends you suspect are coming.
You place a single gold piece on the ground, with a little note that explains the above (but not that Jacob is dead; who even is Jacob anyways hahaha). (-1 gold)
Three more ruffians enter the dungeon.
#1: "What the...? Where did he go?"
#2: "Now we'll never get our money."
#3 & #1: *cussing*
#2 picks up the note and gold piece on the ground. "Too bad I can't read," he says.
The kraken clicks in anticipation of a potential next meal.

Use your psychic telepathy powers to shake the walls of those trespassing cretin's minds by yelling what's written on the note. Hopefully they will be convinced.

So how much do actual treasure hordes and rooms cost?
Not that I'm saying we should buy either just yet

They all look shocked. #1 and #3 look scared, but #2 looks devious.
"How about you give us 5 gold each, and we'll guard your empty treasure hoard from the surface."

The stuffed animal friend chills out with the kraken. The kraken looks happier. (-1 gold)

A stray tentacle looms out from the ceiling, for emphasis. The three ruffians shout, and run out of your dungeon.

Jeremie clicks at their new name, pleased. Jeremie lives a charmed life.
Jeremie gains a level! They are now more powerful.

Treasure hoards are just however much gold and such you want to pile on a floor.
A generic room with an abstract amount of space would be 10 gold.

Let's fold the note into a boat, I bet it would make a cool toy for Jeremie.

So the update will be tonight in ~12 hours, thank you for your patience.

1 GP, although you could make it worth however much you wanted...

Krakens eat the whole creature, and while Jeremie gets a nice meal, the only loot they'd have dropped is anything that falls off in the struggle.

You make another note, and fold it into a little boat for Jeremie. They are pleased with this new thing!

You summon a lil goblin, and instruct them to find a village and rob the locals. (-5 gold)
"Yessir!"
They enthusiastically run out of the dungeon.

You attempt to summon free kobolds, but nothing happens! Then, scraping the literal pocket lint out of your dungeony robes, you try to resummon the kobolds. The lint vanishes, and a single, skrawnny little kobold appears in the trap room.
Jeremie pets this new friend, and the kobold shakes visibly in fear.

Two barbells appear, and Jeremie understands, using a couple of their many tentacles to lift them repeatedly. (-4 gold)

You give Jeremie a big old hug. They hug you with most of their tentacles. The Stuffed animal companion gives Jeremie a tiny hug. You feel the love.

You hire 2 more goblins, and an imp. (-13 gold)
You consider building a lake in the main room, as the kraken trap might be too cramped for Jeremie. You could create a lake room for 20 gold, or a lake for 10 gold, but that might be cutting the budget close.
Jeremie clicks in contentment. They are fine with their ceiling trap life.
Chests cost 2 gold, plus additional money for locks, traps, and treasure (all optional). Mimics are fairly expensive, and with only 26 gold available, you can't afford them.
The two goblins are engaged in meanful conversation. The imp, bored, is practicing its fire magic.
The kobald has stopped shaking, and is instead playing with a smaller tentacle. The kraken, using only 5 of its tentacles, is interacting with everything in its room in absolute delight.

Ok, we need to entice some people to enter our dungeon. Maybe a sign? Yeah, a sign. Make a sign that says "Free treasure inside, just some goblins to deal with." and put it out front. We should also get a treasure painting that shows a pretty good amount of teasure, like a hoard sized pile.
