Magic Item for DnD 3,5: Travelers Resthome

Travelers Resthome

made by Seppä Erkki, aka BlackSmith, heureka 2003/12/03, updated 2004/07/12

This is a 4” high, 2” wide and only ½” thin small door frame that has a tiny door witch leads to extradimensional dwelling that is similar to the spell Mordekein's Magnificen't Mansion.
When placed on the ground and if enough space (otherwise it shrinks back), it grows in one full round to an as high as 8 feet, 4 feet wide and ½ feet thick door that has a frame that is completely made from mithril. The door itself can be made of variable materials.
This main door is water and air tight and can be only, and only, opened by the person who placed it on the ground but anyone can step trough it and also close it or open it from inside. If the door is closed without anyone inside the Rest Home, it shrinks back to its miniature form.

Inside the door there are 20 servants who act as unseen servants, waiting at the great hall ready to serve at the best of their abilities. Except the servants are vaguely transparent making them visible to everyone and can’t leave the complex, they try serve their best to anyone inside of the complex.

Also there are 24 other rooms that are linked to the great hall with variable purposes noted below All of them can be lighted or dimmed simply by asking it while in the room. All of the rooms are also equipped with a fireplace usually inlaid in to the wall opposite to the door. If a fire is kept in these fireplaces, the smoke is magically transferred out so it looks like it rises between the frame and main door; any smoke hitting the sealing of the complex is also moved out in the same manner. Every door in the complex is made (magically copied) from the same material as the main door and all of them block sound completely except regular knocking that can be heard trough them without problem. Also any sound generated in 5ft from the door is also audible 5ft at the other side of the door.

The great hall itself, wich is shaped like a half ball with a 120 ft radius, is the heart of the complex. Its walls are covered with weapon racks and the area excellently suits for training and sparring. If asked the servants can open the floor, only some part of it or all, revealing a swimming pool, shaped like a half ball facing down with radius of 80 ft, positioned in the middle of the great hall. At the centre of the hall, and swimming pool, is a deep fire pit that heats the water and is the main heat source for the complex while its smoke rises to the sealing where it is transformed out.
The dining hall, shaped like a half ball with a 60 ft radius, contains a huge table in the middle of the room, shaped like a horse shoe rounded with nice oak chairs, which resize according to their user. Centered in the room, the table rounding it, is a good sized fire place that can be used for making meals or it can also be used as a pedestal as the servants clean the smut out of after each use. The servants can offer up to four nine-course banquette meals to the first 20 people who ask for it in this hall. Every this way eaten meal also heals 1 point of damage.
The smithy is an appropriate space for making weapons, armors and generally a workshop with an intense smokeless fire burning forge that burns for one full day. After that it must be heated by other means. The room is shaped like a half ball with a 30 ft radius having a door for dampening the noise.
The study room, containing an alchemy lab equipment in the middle of the room, walls and sealing are covered with bookshelves and a door for keeping the noise outside. The room is shaped like a half ball with a 30 ft radius, thus the book shelves are enhanced to prevent stored books from falling.
20 sleeping quarters, each shaped like a half ball with a 15 ft radius. Each is equipped with a door for privacy and sound sleeping, containing a twin bed, wardrobe, and a small writing desk with a chair. The room also has a small door leading to a small private toilet. In case of force doors, they are slightly different from the main door, acting as mirrors for viewers from halls direction thus no one can see inside to the sleeping quarters or from a sleeping quarter to a toilet.

For after one full day (24h) after the complex is grown it does not generate any fresh air and its fires go out resulting to it’s temperature rapidly moving towards the outer temperature. Arrogant or ignorant inhabitants might suffocate or freeze to death after long enough time if the main door isn´t opened to gain fresh air or if no heat is generated by other means or if the complex is not refreshed as noted below.

Casting Mordekein's Magnificent Mansion inside of the Rest Home refreshes it, thus all it’s worn out functions are available again. Also after it has been 8 hours in its shrunken form it refreshes. Taking extradimensional items (e.g. Bag of Holding) inside the complex is safe but opening them or opening new extradimensional pockets results for its entire contest to be spilled out from the main door simultaneous destroying the container, or in case of spell negating the whole spell, but in any case this also refreshes the Rest Home. However, dimensional travel is not affected in any way.

Any items left behind in Resthome stay there but only 1/50 part of their weight is added to its shrunk form. Note that in shrunken form it can not be opened by any means, breaking the door in its miniature form only result for its entire contest to be scattered around astral plane and the door frame turning into simple mithril door frame with its magic gone. Also note that the frame will not shrink without a door.
