The Master of Keys is a horror from Duskmourn.
Description
Its form is that of a many-armed creature covered in tattered robes and hovering in the air. Its physical shape resembles that of a cellarspawn.
History
The Master of Keys is a cellarspawn who is able to use the House's doors as thresholds not just between adjacent rooms but unconnected rooms as well. It's also able to manipulate where other creatures exit, an ability it can employ to help other cellarspawn track down their prey or trap a survivor in an endless loop of rooms with no escape. Some believe it doesn't actually live in the House but rather a liminal space that only exists on the thresholds between rooms, and every time you walk through a door, you risk drawing its attention.
Trivia
- The Master of Keys is a reference to escape rooms; its playtest name was "Escape Room Mastermind."
