Alaise Manor House
Baronial Mansion Floor Plans/Details
The Baronial residence is some 300 years old, having been constructed by the famed architect XXXXXXX, for the then current lord XXXXXXX. Built on a level terrace set into the side of a mountain, the building sits facing east, set above the many miners and stoneworker’s villages that are scattered throughout the region. Wood and other such building materials being scarce, given the mountainous terrain, the primary construction material used in the building was stone. A nearby mountainside cliff face had yielded and exquisite form of black marble, which had been used for the majority of the exterior as well as interior first floor. The fine construction has allowed the building to weather the test of time and the elements easily. The exterior windows are either made from a stained glass that was imported from the sands of Talerium or a thicker, crystalline material, which allows visibility while managing to keep out most of the cold of the winter. All the interior doors are made from Blackwood, a fine ebony wood that had been imported from Beluatarra. The door handles are constructed from wrought iron and capped with the same black marble the house was made from. Any inlays or trim on the door is normally set with silver or silver leaf.
The main hallway on the first floor is covered by a thick, textured cut, Saxony pile type rug made from soft, royal blue fiber. The carpet has been specifically made for this house, covering the width of the hall, but leaving an eight inch wide space from either wall. The main hallway has several doors to the outside located in the northern and southern parts of the house. There is a single door across from the entrance to the Mirror Garden (3) as well as two sets of double doors, both in the southern section of the house, one set to either side of the Game Room (18). There are two circular stairways at the back end (western side) of the manor house. The stairways go from the basement level up to the attic on the third floor.
