This page is incomplete and/or lacking flavor. Reason: I am struggling to understand what this is for and how it is used in a game. Is this for a player? A DM? It is so confusing.

Introduction[edit]
Dungeons are powerful but secretive entity's with a seemingly endless supply of monsters and loot. Something which has led many to their doom. This manual is for dungeon creation. Please enjoy.

Rules and regulations[edit]
Dungeons have several rules and guidelines,
- Dungeons operate on an xp system ranging from levels 1 - 10 level advancement is calculated by taking the amount of xp needed for a player to level and multiplying it by 2. Dungeons gain xp when killing creatures within their dungeon xp is doubled when killing humanoids.
- Spawning new monsters consumes xp equal to the xp gained from killing it. If a dungeon creature is killed by a creatures outside of your control the xp is lost. However respawning creatures only takes half xp.
- A floor on a dungeon must have at least 3 rooms with a boss room. The largest amount of rooms you can have total (on all floors combined) is equal to your dungeon level * 10
- You can have an unlimited number of hallways however something like a maze counts as a room (this part is largely up to the DMs discretion.)
- You can have a number of traps equal to your dungeon level * 5. The DM decides what is appropriate for your dungeon. (ex a water core probably would would not have a fire trap but say is finds a magma pocket it could make a steam trap of some variety.)
- If you expend to much xp you can level down. If you level down all of your creatures outside your level range go berserk and attack anything in site, and any traps malfunction. Leveling down does not remove multiclass status if you multiclassed last level you just can not make use of it until you level again.
- The CR of basic creatures you can summon must be equal or less than 1/2 you level rounded down.
- The CR of boss creatures you can summon is equal to your level.
- You can not manipulate your dungeon while others are inside it.
- Your dungeon core has a AC of 15 and has a number of hit points equal to 20 * your dungeon core level.
- You can summon basic creatures up to a CR of 1/2 your level rounded down.
- You can summon boss creatures up to a CR of your level.
Multiclassing[edit]
A dungeon core can choose to multiclass into a different type starting at second level. However the level of creatures you can pick from are not different but are reduced. (ex. if you where a level 4 core that was a fire - nature core you could pick level 4 creatures and bosses from both but the max level creature you could get at 10th level would be 9th level. (The max level of creaures you can get at 10th level is reduced by one for every time you multiclass.))
