Trigomas Residence
Found on Escutcheon Boulevard in NW Therenborough, the extensive residence and grounds of the House Trigomas is periodically open to the public.
Front Yard
[Trigomas Residence, Front Yard]
Framed by a large rock wall equipped with a steel gate, this property shows the prosperity of its owner. Flagstones fitted to make a solid walkway encourage visitors to stay off the manicured lawn on their stroll to the house. Flowering shrubs soften the two-story building's marble exterior, scenting the air with their rich perfume. Polished brass urns, planted with boxwood topiary, line stairs that lead up to a mahogany front door, adorned by a golden plaque engraved with the Trigomas family crest.
Obvious paths: north, northwest.
- Picked in this room is a delicate white moonflower
Side Yard
[Trigomas Residence, Side Yard]
Hiding the secure rock barricade encircling the property is a row of tall pines, their branches forming a solid wall of bluish-tinged needles that freshen the air with a woodsy scent while also helping to muffle the noise brought on by the hustle and bustle of city life. Along the side of the house, a thick carpet of green grass is meticulously maintained, forming a soft cushion underfoot that invites visitors to continue on the scenic journey around the residence.
Obvious paths: south, west.
Back Yard
[Trigomas Residence, Back Yard]
Creating an ever-changing display of jewel-toned colors, overflowing beds of brilliant daylilies add a splash of color across the building's marble exterior. A door leading into the home's kitchen allows staff to easily serve family and guests who choose to relax in the lawn-carpeted back yard. Grouped with entertaining in mind, woven wicker chairs surround a glass-topped table while matching white chaises are placed to take advantage of the nearby herb and rose gardens with their fragrant perfume.
Obvious paths: north, northeast, east, west, northwest.
- Picked in this room is a brilliant daylily
Herb Garden
[Trigomas Residence, Herb Garden]
Neatly trimmed boxwood forms a hedge surrounding the garden, discouraging animals from venturing in to sample young foliage. White gravel lines interlocking paths that separate the raised beds, crunching underfoot as household staff carefully harvest what is needed for the next meal. Methodically laid out in a formal pattern, each rectangular plot has been planted in contrasting colors with a single type of fragrant herb, designed to compliment the brass sundial decoratively placed atop the center isle.
Obvious paths: southwest.
- Picked in this room are:
Grape Arbor
[Trigomas Residence, Grape Arbor]
Tall columns hung with lanterns support the arbor's trellised framework. Painted a bright white, the woodwork stands out against the leafy grape vines, creating a softly lit outdoor room. A woven design of baked red bricks forms a floor on which wicker chairs and table have been arranged for those wishing to relax in sheltered comfort. Near the back of the arbor a padded wooden swing hangs from chains secured to a ceiling beam, inviting couples to share intimate moments during the day or night.
Obvious exits: south.
- The door here leads to the Kitchen.
- Picked in this room is a purple grape

Rose Garden
[Trigomas Residence, Rose Garden]
Rambling blooms cover arched walkways winding throughout the garden. Alternating beds are filled with long-stemmed bushes, filling the air with their intoxicating perfume. Along the border, wrought iron fences provide a neutral background for the bedding plants that battle daily for the most attention. Marble benches are placed to view the competition between the famous Therengian roses with their porcelain-white petals and the Trigomas blood rose whose velvety-red color demands to be noticed.
Obvious paths: southeast.

Side Yard
[Trigomas Residence, Side Yard]
The neatly clipped lawn flows in a blanket of green, from the front yard to the back, winding its way along the large rock wall that secures the property from uninvited peasants looking for handouts of food and coin. Tall rhododendron bushes soften the look of the cold, stone barricade with frothy blooms that form a continuous cloud of soft pink, lending a slight floral fragrance to the air to accompany visitors on their journey around the residence.
Obvious paths: east, southeast.
Foyer
[Trigomas Residence, Foyer]
Greeting guests in the center of the foyer is a columned pedestal on which a bronze bust of a proud ram commands immediate attention. Fringed wool carpets dyed a rich forest-green add color and warmth to pale marble flooring, imported from an elite quarry. Long mirrors framed in gold gilding line the walls, allowing for last minute primping before entering the main rooms of the manor. Traces of lemon oil permeate the air, undoubtedly coming from the polished ornate staircase leading to the upper floor.
You also see a mahogany front door and a pair of arched doors.
Obvious exits: north, east.
Great Room
[Trigomas Residence, Great Room]
Filling the far wall, a fireplace built from tumbled river rock forms a rustic backdrop for the stuffed head of a giant black bear, obviously one of the owner's prized trophies. Dividing two overstuffed leather sofas, arranged to take advantage of the fire's warmth, sits a glass-topped table supported by a sculpted bronze wolfhound. Hung from the beamed ceiling, a chandelier of woven elk antlers, floods the area with light. Knotted silk rugs, detailed with scenes of the hunt, adorn the tiled floor.
Obvious exits: north, west.

Dining Room
[Trigomas Residence, Dining Room]
Freestanding candelabras combine with a two-tiered crystal chandelier to reflect warm light off the ornate mirrors hung about the room. Imported gold silk printed with the family's crest lines the walls, forming a rich backdrop for the long, claw-footed dining table with its matching chairs. Standing beside the abundant buffet, an alabaster statue pays tribute to Glythtide. Discreetly placed off to the side, a well-stocked bar awaits to quench the thirst of welcomed guests.

Kitchen
[Trigomas Residence, Kitchen]
Flesh hooks hang beside the huge brick oven which is divided by a series of spits and steel crooks. Intermingling scents of roasting meat and bubbling pots of stew grow thicker with each wave of heat from the well-tended fire. Rounds of bread dough dusted with flour fill one end of the long wooden counter, left to rise as bakers busy themselves with an assortment of pastries. Placed above a pair of large stone sinks, windows overlook the kitchen's extensive herb garden.
You also see a back door.
Obvious exits: east.
- The door takes you to the Back Yard.

Library
[Trigomas Residence, Library]
Being centered in the manor protects the library from the flurry of activity that goes on within the other rooms, making it a quiet spot to read and reflect. Mahogany bookcases line the walls from floor to ceiling, filled with the family's journals, which sit alongside a collection of historic works. Quilted burgundy leather covers the pair of humpbacked armchairs that flank a long settee. Carved accent tables feature shaded brass lanterns, providing light for hours of extended research.
Obvious exits: south.
Passageway
[Trigomas Residence, Passageway]
Long tapers sit in brass holders, tracing a path that breaks up shadows dancing about on cool stone walls. Lining the marble floor, a fringed carpet runner muffles footfalls from occasional travelers. At one end of the narrow hall, a heavy goldenwood door stands out, while tucked into the far corner a narrow door is barely visible to anyone not looking for it.
Obvious exits: none.
Study
[Trigomas Residence, Study]
Dark paneling surrounds the room, framing a glass case with a collection of favored swords and shields, retired after memorable battles and hung for display. Overlooking the rose garden, emerald velvet drapes a large picture window complete with padded seat, providing a scenic spot to curl up for an afternoon of reading. Standing guard from the corner, a full set of ceremonial plate armor augments an ornate ebonwood desk, its polished wood mirrored in the matching chair cushioned with rich green leather.
You also see a heavy goldenwood door and a golden curtain.
Obvious exits: none.
Wine Cellar
[Trigomas Residence, Wine Cellar]
Double thick walls of stone block assure the temperature stays consistently cool in this underground cellar. Shelves lined with a rich assortment of imported wines and liqueurs fill the walls, the dusty bottles left to age awaiting the family's pleasure. Stools surround a round table set with crystal decanters and glasses in preparation for private invitations to sample rare libations from the Trigomas family's vast collection.
You also see a wooden stairway.
Obvious exits: none.

Reception Room
[Trigomas Residence, Reception Room]
Decorative suits of armor partitioned by fluted alabaster columns stand poised like a silent army, guarding the way to a slightly raised stage where an ornately jeweled settee sits between a duo of coordinating brocade-covered chairs. Soft candlelight reflects off the river of crystal prisms that cover the three-tiered chandelier, causing flashes of pastel colors to dance across a gold symbol inlaid into the polished white floor.
You also see a cushioned flamewood stool, a curtained archway, a gold-gilded flamewood harpsichord and a pair of arched doors.
Obvious exits: none.
