78. West Gate Tower

This tower is three stories high (counting the roof as the fourth), but the top floors have collapsed inward, leaving only the bottom one. It is a simple hollow tube with a steep stairway that would provide access to each floor if they were still intact. Arrow slits are every 10 feet, positioned where they can face out. The entrance door has a lock but is not kept locked; a heavy bar is kept beside it to fit into brackets on the frame. This is a guard post for human fighters wearing scarlet cloaks, red-enameled helmets, and chain mail. Each has 1d6 gp. They are busy dealing with a giant black widow spider that just crawled into the rubble of the tower overhead. It might come scuttling down the wall to attack the PCs!
