Description: A circular room 4 yards across. The room is full of trashed wooden beams, with just a small bit of rope thrown in. A life-sized stone statue of a dwarf with a crossbow, saber, and myriad tools stands in the room.

The Statue: This statue is the stone form of Dylan Ferlak. Dylan is a companion of Hanry Skyborn (Feb 28) and the creator of the Frooglings (Feb 6). Moving it will deal 3d6 fire damage to anyone in the room. Dylan is a Dwarven Artificer-Wizard. His adventuring group was sworn to take down the wizard Polriket, but they were defeated in personal combat with the wizard. He wants to find the rest of his adventuring party. Dylan was turned to stone 82 years ago. He can tell the players the following information:
  • Polriket is a dark one wizard who wanted immortality without lichdom
  • Polriket loves summoning and necromancy
  • This dungeon was built to protect a mechanism to bring him back from the dead
  • He has (or had) a group of loyal followers with detailed instructions how to traverse the dungeon and bring him back
  • He has some familiarity with the dungeon ... To Be Determined
Remember when the players are trying to restore the statue, that the main way to get here is a portal that reduces spell-casting resources.

Exits: A set of stone stairs leads up on the north wall, but the way is blocked by a massive slab of stone. This stone is six inches thick (75DR and 78HP), and the noise and vibrations will be loud enough to annoy the rock mites just outside. This stone USED to magically reshape itself when a gong was rung, but the gong was stolen a long time ago. The stone will repair damage to itself at the rate of 1 HP and 1 DR per 6 hours.

Vision: -10 (no light)
