Donjon

A Diabolic Monster from the Celestial Codex.

Historical Data

The word donjon has been used to describe both the high central tower of a castle and the dungeon underneath. It originates from the Old French word meaning “a lord’s castle”. There is also a Donjon card within the Deck of Many Things, a popular magic item in the Dungeons & Dragons game.

Amtgard Description

The irksome Donjon represents the most basic aspects of troublesome evil. These tiny globes of bubbling darkness bob about in seemingly random directions, causing no end of mayhem. While not exactly intelligent, they do obey their masters commands, but tend to get too wrapped up in breaking things to be much use.

Garb

Dark blue or purple tabard with black circle motif or pattern, black headband or face paint.
