Located in the small, dark, tangled forest known as Teufelwald, immediately south of the city of Teufeldorf, lies an ancient manor house. Now abandoned, and rumored to be cursed, this spot has significant historical value. Archaeological evidence shows that a structure has stood on this spot since the First Age. The last known inhabitants, the Belreg Family, occupied the manor until August 825 TA when an expedition led by Lord Treadway, Condor the Cleric, Father Guido Sarduici, Count Demoney III, and Ikcin Namffoh was lost adventuring near the site. Shortly thereafter, the structure fell into disuse. It is rumored to be haunted.

The party made several visits to the weird and reputedly haunted Teufeldorf Manor, where they were the guests of the Belregs, a strange family of vinebrothers.  Few tales remain of The Party's exploits in the manor.  

What follows is the account of the adventures in Teufeldorf Manor as outlined by Lord Treadway, grandfather of Nils Treadway, the current [[Barony of Huntingdon|Baron of Huntingdon]].  While extensive maps exist for the manor, Treadway's account only describes the extent of the manor explored by the expedition.

'''The Belreg Family and Staff'''

The Belreg Family are a group of plant people know as vinebrothers.  Each has the tint of their parent plant.  They attack by weapon type or belching a cloud of berry gas with stains and smells.

The Belreg Dogs are harmless little dogs with big fangs!  Friendly and playful unless a scent is on you.

'''Side Notes from Lord Treadway's Journal'''

This eerie mansion held the plans for the Moon Blaster, which was later constructed at great expense and to little avail by Sir Zachary.  

On one adventure, Sir Zachary plotted with a maid of the manor, Carrie the Licentious, to kill Soold, one of the Belreg sons as a revenge for past misdeeds.  The plan went awry when the plant father, Shaal, caught Zachary as he crept up on Soold in his sleeping tank.  In his anger, Shaal belched a cloud of stinking blueberry gas which turned Zachary blue.
