The Hall of Judgment

Stronghold

Recently refurbished from a mothballed area of Thronehold Castle, the Hall of Judgment is the seat of power and authority—such as it is—for the Tribunal. The first floor consists of several audience chambers, dining rooms, kitchens, shrines to the Silver Flame and the Sovereign Host, and the Tribunal’s sizable store of records and texts. Living chambers for the magistrates, their staff, and the hall’s soldiers occupy the second floor, while the courtroom fills the top of the complex. Most war criminals sentenced by the Tribunal are shipped to Dreadhold or other prisons, but the basement of the hall holds its own cells, either for prisoners awaiting sentence or transport or for those the Tribunal wants to keep on hand (perhaps as witnesses in future trials). The underground also includes the court’s vaults, where it stores evidence, monies, and emergency supplies, and maintains a hidden escape route in case of long-term siege. Every room of the hall is warded against scrying and teleportation, and the courtroom itself can be shifted to become its own pocket dimension, not unlike a larger version of rope trick.
