Skull Cavern

This article is marked as a stub for the following reason:

The Skull Cavern resides in a cave in the North-West corner of the Calico Desert. It is initially locked and requires the Skull Key to gain access.
After entering the Cavern for the first time, the following day a letter is received from Mr. Qi giving a quest to reach Level 25. The reward for completing this quest is 10,000g.
Due to a bug, access can be obtained to the cavern if the chest at level 120 is destroyed with a bomb in The Mines after it is opened.
Progressing
Like The Mines, The Player advances to new floors by finding a ladder either dropped by a foe or under a rock. Additionally, holes can be found that allow the player to jump multiple levels at a time. A jump of seven levels or greater will deal damage to the player when jumping, and there is no way to tell how far will be fallen until after jumping. Furthermore, jumps do not automatically start near an exit ladder, meaning the player may potentially be in an unsafe location with low health and no immediate way out.
Unlike the Mines, the Cavern offers no elevator and has no limits to it's depth. Each visit must start again from the first level.
Every ten levels the chance to find Iridium Ore increases significantly.
