Dungeons are very large, but incredibly labyrinth places, usually located underground, that are divided up into various levels. They usually contain treasure & monsters in equal measure.
Dungeons contain many creatures and beasts, and on each progressive level they become more powerful. Usually there are very valuable items located deep within these dungeons, and very often the creatures in the dungeon are there to defend that treasure.
Dungeons draw many adventurers who are looking to claim the treasure for themselves, or just get a good workout fighting the dangerous inhabitants. Although they will all fight adventurers who come into the dungeon, many denizens of dungeons are concerned with the public image of the dungeon, and treat adventurers like a customer, especially the ones who cannot be killed. Adventurers who cannot get as far as they'd like in the dungeon can improve their chances by taking the beat up armaments left by some of the weaker creatures, and turning them in for better weapons.
While many dungeons are filled with treasure due to originally being used as strongholds and hoards, millennia of adventuring has cleared many of Foon's dungeons out. Demand for adventuring opportunities has led the DOT (Department of Treasure) to restock emptied dungeons with new treasure.1
