Death in Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels is not evil, or demonic, but is classed alongside others like the Hogfather, and the Tooth Fairy as a true Master (or Mistress) of His (or Her) domain. To many he is a myth or a legend, and to children he is a dark fairytale made up to scare them into doing their chores. But no matter who you are, or from where you hail, all will meet him eventually. But where does he live?
Welcome to Death's Domain, based on part of the Discworld Mapp as created by Terry Pratchett and Paul Kidby. The exterior of the house is as close as I could approximate it, but with no floorplan, the interior is created to how I feel it should be. The surroundings of the house, are also based on aspects of the aforementioned Mapp.
Please remember that as Death has little knowledge of space, or time, things are not always as they appear.
The layout is as follows:
Ground floor:
Long hallway (3 miles or just a matter of meters?), study (one hundred yards long, or three steps to the desk), the library (containing the books of everyone's lives, written as it happens), kitchen (where Albert can be found creating the greasiest food you've ever set eyes on), life-timer room (the hissing of the life-timers can drive you mad, unless you're Death, whereupon it's quite soothing), gaming room/dining room (the master - Death - does not need to eat, but feels that if he has a house, he should have the necessities).
1st Floor:
Guest Annex - Where Mort stayed, with bedroom and en-suite. Death's bedroom and en-suite (not that he needs it). Ysabelle (Death's adopted daughter)'s bedroom and en-suite. Ysabelle was 16 years old for 35 years of her life, and Death felt that pink was always suitable for young girls.
Outside there is Death's maze. He had seen that humans had garden mazes and felt the need to create one. But as Death always knows where and when he is, he would just walk to the centre and back, with no option of getting lost. In an attempt to make it more difficult, he added various temporal discontinuities.
There is also Death's flower garden, and potting shed. Nothing in Death's Domain grows or lives, but he likes it to look nice, in a non-pigmented kind of way.
Please see the thumbnails below for more details.
Almost all of the CC listed below was created by me (and is mostly recolors of Maxis objects), other than the bath/shower unit in Ysabelle's bathroom.
