Hasard Hall - The Home of Vedir Prideaux on March 03, 2011, 07:10:14 PM Hasard HallThe Home of Vedir PrideauxFirst Floor | Second Floor | Underground | GroundsOpulent home of the Prideauxs for several generations, it has become a family tradition to add to the home - a task which the current master has taken to with particular relish. Located in the countryside of Gloustershire, the mansion sits largely alone, muggles having been safely repelled for 2 miles around it.

Access to the kitchens and cellars is at the far end of the house, though entrances to the Underground actually litter the house, if you know how to find them...The servant's quarters also make up part of the ground floor, this area being 'roped off' from guest access.

The lounge is usually only used for small or friendly gatherings; 'business meeting' style get togethers would function downstairs.

The Underground is largely a creation of Vedir's; the tunnels are used for business purposes and he has harbored fugitives in the far reaches of the tunnels. While the 'accessible' areas are quite decorated, the later areas aren't. The entrances to other areas litter the house - ranging from a trapdoor on the second floor to hidden doors, false bookshelves and the like. Upper LevelsThe upper areas serve as a basement and contain the wine cellars, kitchens and the garages. The Lower LevelsAs you descend, the caves and rooms become rougher cut and water from the fountain above seeps down into pools, forming a much more cave-like area. These tunnels are frequently altered.

The land provides a good place to ride and walk. The StablesThe family keeps a population of several magical horses as well as regular ones; Camille Prideaux's preferred mode of transport is a flying carriage, and so she keeps the horses to pull it.
