11-01-05, 08:35 AM Ok I have looked on google and on yahoo images for floor plans for a romanian style castle and can't find one. I'm hoping that somewhere someone knows of a suppliment that can be used. I need layouts for a castle like Dracula's and Frankensteins. Anyone have any dea's on where to start looking?

Oh and online would be better for me as there are no RPG shops around here that do anything with DnD other then the core books.

Your Google-Fu is weak, Grasshopper.

I searched for "romanian castle" and the first link lead me to Bran Castle, the castle of Dracula himself. I then did an image search for "bran castle plan" and found this: http://www.brancastlemuseum.ro/ghid.htm

http://www.castlewales.com/life.html

http://score.rims.k12.ca.us/activity/castle_builder/ (Good links and format of what you should be asking yourself)
