Over City

the third floor · Floor Three · the urban levels

The dungeon's third floor, an urban level where the 'real' games begin after the training floors.

Story so far

The Over City is the dungeon's third floor, the first of the urban levels, where — as Mordecai tells the party — the training levels have concluded and 'the games may truly begin.' Carl, Princess Donut, and Mongo teleport in to a golden-bricked hallway beneath a false starry sky (an illusion, like a Las Vegas mall ceiling, only about twenty-five feet up), with three hours and thirty-five minutes until the previous floor collapses. It is a city floor home to creatures like the Incubus, and crawlers must find a stairwell down before the timer expires. Here Carl and Donut make their pivotal race and class selections in Mordecai's guildroom.

Appearance

Golden-colored brickwork walls and floor, a plush red carpet leading to a guildhall door, all beneath an illusory dark sky dotted with stars and a colorful nebula, roughly twenty-five feet overhead.

Role

The book's opening floor — an urban dungeon level and the first true 'game' floor.

Relationships

Mordecai — Guildmaster of its guildhall, who welcomes the party to the floor in his Incubus form.
Carl — Arrives here to choose his race and class and to find the way down.
