Bostaunieux Oubliette

Description

This prison, accessed from the basement of the Chateau d'Oraguille, is not currently in use by the Kingdom of San d'Oria, although a few guards are still kept to patrol the halls. The deeper recesses of the oubliette (a dungeon with an opening only on top) is accessible only through a guarded trap door. The prison is dangerous to even the most worthy of adventurers.

Historical Background

An oubliette (from the French oubliettes, literally "forgotten places") was a form of dungeon which was accessible only from a hatch in a high ceiling. To exit an oubliette was nearly impossible without outside help. The word comes from the same root as the French oublier, "to forget," as it was used for those prisoners the captors wished to forget. Most prisoners were left to die of starvation. Another form of oubliette was a shelf in a long steeply sloping tunnel leading down to the moat or to the sea. Once cast down the tunnel, a victim would either slowly starve or cast themselves further down to drown. The Bostaunieux Oubliette contains both the ceiling hatch a long tunnel that leads down to a short cliff in West Ronfaure.
