Castle Whitestone

Whitestone Castle is a small castle built on a hill to the north of the city-state of Whitestone. Originally owned by the de Rolo family, the Briarwoods claimed the castle for themselves once the city fell under their rule. After the success of the Whitestone Rebellion, Cassandra de Rolo and (in absentia) Percival de Rolo regained ownership.

Description
On the west side of the Whitestone castle is the secret passage leading to the dungeons beneath the castle. It was notably used by Cassandra and Percy de Rolo to escape the Briarwood's assault. In the back side is a set of wooden stairs, leading to an undercroft where the bodies of previous rulers were entombed. Beyond this, closer to the Sun Tree, is an ancient subterranean ziggurat, formerly a temple to Ioun.

Prior to the Briarwoods' occupation, there was a circle of teleportation in the castle; however, it appeared to have been destroyed as part of the Briarwoods' efforts to further isolate Whitestone from the rest of the world. Another circle was created during Vox Machina's year-long break from adventuring.
