The House Of Smoke & Water - A Planar Location For Your Old School

There is a place spoken of in whispers & legends across the planar cosmos. The House of Smoke & Water is a place of forbidden pleasures & carnal appetites for those adventurers who brave the winds between dimensions.

It is spoken in hushed tones because of its reputation but it is a place of commerce as well as prostitution. A converted way station between dimensional tube ways. The House has become legend across the rolling thunderous planar realities where waves unreality wash & turn. 

The House can appear where & when it needs to. It can appear as anything from a scuzzy door way to a palace of erotic pleasure depending on time & circumstances.
Rooms, workers, etc all move within like a giant Chinese puzzle box.

 The House caters to all tastes with holo-suites, dopplegangers, mimics & other eclectically tailored  means of satisfying its clients needs.

One does not merely find the House there are times when the place seems to seek its clients out itself.
 

It presents itself in a wide variety of shapes, guises, & lures for adventurers. Sometimes sporting gambling, music, a bar, or other civil entertainment. Yet always there is a veneer of the erotic simply boiling under the surface of the place.

Those who frequent the House swear its a safe point for them. Others have claimed the place is merely another entrance to some forgotten nether hell or other.

Those who do use the 'services' of the House agree that the workers are clean & safe for sexes of all sentient. The place offers other services for adventurers as well. An on staff exorcist, a variety of clerics, full hospital as well as 3 mages of 5 level & above.
Who controls The House of Smoke & Water? No one no knows. The madams have included the Devil's brides, vampric royalty, a falled chaos lord, & many, many others
 

Below the house proper are the mysterious Proto Tunnels. The clients speak to new comers of all sorts of foul things found or trapped down below. The tunnels are different each time they are accessed by a client!

Those who venture into this strange underground world may venture for days through winding tunnels, strange galleries, & weird rooms some used for 'special' clients & the like.

There are those who speculate that the tunnels serve as a type of dimension skeleton & certain rooms may be called into existence & dismissed at the pleasures of the powers who run the place.
 There are those who clients who have claimed to have encountered horrors without number within those strange forbidden areas of the House

The House Of Smoke & Water  Secrets 
The House itself is actually a Black Ziggurat location under the control of some divine power or technological genius.  It moves where & when it wants through out time & space. It has an agenda all of its own. Various undead, devils, & demons are used as works in the place most often of their own free will. The DM is free to create their own background as they see fit. My purpose for the House is simple - to separate the players from their gold!
