Wow, this pace is hard to keep up!

22 Feb 2023 etr

Description: A 9 yard by 20 yard room, 30 feet tall. Balconies two yards wide and stacked two high line the two long sides of the room, with stone railings on them, and 18 inch stone columns holding them up.

Exits: Each end of the room has a standard wooden door (DR 2, HP 29) that isn't locked. Each balcony has three standard wooden doors (DR 2, HP 29), spaced evenly along its length. Yes, this room has 14 doors.

Columns: The columns can be climbed at -2. Actually, a lot of movement options make sense in this room, including Leg-up, Pull-Up, and Running Climb.

Monsters: The room contains 10 "Black Servitors", who are on the balconies. Black servitors appear generally humanoid, but are made of some strange rubbery black substance, and have small uniform round holes where their mouths and eyes should be. They speak to each other in an unnerving, whistling version of the elder tongue.

Code:
ST 12     HP 12         Speed 6.0
DX 11     Will 10       Move 6
IQ 8     Per 10        
HT 12     FP 12         SM +0

Dodge 7    Parry 9    DR 2

Thrown 14lb Rock (13): 1d crushing, 6 yard range. -2 to attack and defend if thrown from above, and +1 damage. Takes a ready manuever to pick up.
Club (12) : 1d6+3 crushing

Skills: throwing -13, Broadsword -12, Brawling -12, stealth -12

Traits: Magic resistance 4, Doesn't breath, eat, drink or sleep, 
 immune to metabolic hazards, Injury tolerance (Homogenous, No Eyes), Clinging, No bite, Darkvision
 
Class: Elder Thing
Black servitors will not negotiate, but they are smart enough to run away and to throw rocks from heights onto their foes. They have clinging, so moving away from foes in this very vertical environment is pretty easy.

Treasure: $1000 of void stone can be found among the rubble on the higher balconies: $200 on each of the middle balconies and $300 on each of the top. Its loose. Each $100 weighs .25lbs, and it can be identified with Prospecting, Hidden Lore (Elder things), Alchemy, or Thaumatology roll, or Occultism-5. The clubs are also worth $100, all told, and weigh 30 lbs.
