Castle Pantara map?

Post by Shadowdragon »

Was there ever a map made for Castle Pantara, maybe in an adventure set in Valachan or something?

Catalogue says it's in Darklords, p59. And so it is... but it's not really too detailed. Good for a general layout though.

The only adventures set in Valachan that I recall are the 3 in Dungeon magazine* and the Lady Adeline one in CotN. No time now to look up if there's a better map in one of those, but I doubt it.

*Dungeon # 52 (1994) - Laughing Man
Dungeon # 50 (1994) - Felkovic's Cat
Dungeon # 42 (1993) - The Price of Revenge

Dungeon #50 has floor plans for all the levels & sub-levels of Castle Pantera. Still hate the name & the too-obvious design, I always expect to see the Thundercats lairing there. :arijani:

Castle Pantera: There was me thinking it was originally built as the home for a big haired '80s metal act. When they went broke it was bought and redecorated as it was pulled into Ravenloft. However somewhere inside can be found: a fully equipped recording studio, a lost stash of drugs/booze/wine gums and the very confused bass guitarist who was sleeping off a hangover in the basement when it was repossessed and sucked into the dark realms...

What about Misericordia, Ivana's mansion? I'm always on the look for that one...

You can find it in one of the Reference Cards of the Realm of Terror boxed set. It's not a very detailed map, but it gives you a good idea of the place and its features.

Wasn't that also the name of the Thundercats' Castle? From what I've read of the place, it looks similar.

You're thinking of Cat's Lair. Or, maybe, the Tower of Omens.
