On a level of the tower shrouded in a chilly fog The Priestess awaits. Once a virtuous human who set out to with a group of valiant adventurers to conquer the tower for the good of all humanity, she fell prey to the foul energies that reside within. In the dark of night she slaughtered every last one of her companions. She now carries their decapitated heads around while whispering words of affection for them.
So spooky it gave me a chill.

While she make look cute she is awfully wicked. And what you didn't know, is those chains aren't connected to anything. And furthermore, she hasn't been fed in a century.
Deadweight, a long-dead inventor who maintains the clocktower of Hades, which he lives at the top of. (Why does the underworld need clocks? A riddle for the ages. Imagine that the clock is just below the spire.) Has gotten so bored with the job, he's started dismantling his own body to rebuild it with metal. An absolute stickler for schedules. Any hero who challenges him has an even five minutes to win the fight... or else they get sent back to the bottom of the Tower. Thing is, since Deadweight controls the clocks, he'll tamper with them all throughout the fight unless you stop him first. Time fights everybody dirty.
On the lower levels of the tower sits a long, dimly lit hallway. It is at a fork. Go right, a path more brightly lit but seeming to slope downwards - or go left, down this dreary path. If you chose left, you will soon see bones scattered about. Before long, you see a little creature, huddled down over a dark, bloody pile of skulls. Even in the dim lighting, you can see it is a vibrant purple, with rabbit-like ears, and that it's tail appears to be holding a knife. Dare you approach? Or do you turn and run back to take the more lit path?
