About this model
A tall, narrow bookshelf painted white, with several evenly spaced shelves and a simple frame. It looks clean and plain. The shelf is about 3.5 ft wide, 1 ft deep and 7 ft tall, filling a single square against a wall.
Place it in a library, a study, a shop or a bedroom. It holds books, scrolls, jars or curios. A shelf is a classic spot for a secret switch, and toppling it can block a door or crush an unwary enemy. Rows of them in a narrow room make cramped aisles where a fight becomes a close, awkward affair. The plain finish also suits a modern apartment or an archive.
Ideas for the table
- Pulling the right book from the shelf opens a secret door into the wizard's laboratory.
- The party topples the shelf to block the door while cultists hammer on it.
- The shelf holds one jar that does not belong, containing a preserved eye.
