THE NECROMANCER'S LAIR	

Quest 3 - Level 3


The man in the village told you that Shantil's Lair had three levels, though that now seems like ages ago.  If his information is true, this must be the final level.  As you step off the staircase this time, you hear the sounds of battle in the distance instead of chanting.  A loud, fearsome roar suddenly echoes through the chamber.  This must be the sound that the old man heard; a blood chilling cry that can only be that of Braun Vog Baug.


Wandering Monster:  Mummy


Notes:

A.  This is the entrance to the quest.  


B.  The small room to the south is full of Skeletons.  If you do not have enough Skeletons to fill it (the basic game only comes with 4) use two Zombies for the last two Skeletons.


C.  When the first Hero opens the door, read "Inside the room you see a fearsome apparition that can only be Braun Vog Baug.  He is battling with two Skeletons, and quickly dispatches them."

The Gargoyle marker is for Braun Vog Baug.  You can use the Gargoyle figure for him, or any other appropriate one you might have.

Shantil is to be placed in the location marked with an 'X' - do not place him here until Braun Vog Baug has been destroyed (see below).

Braun Vog Baug has these stats:
Movement:     8
Attack Dice:  4
Defend Dice:  4
Body Points:  4
Mind Points:  5

Braun Vog Baug has the power to Regenerate one Body Point per turn.  He will never go above 4, though.  Braun Vog Baug will regenerate a Body Point at the beginning of his turn.

Braun Vog Baug can cast the spell Firestorm two times.


When Braun Vog Baug has been destroyed, read "A sudden shimmering fills the room, and Shantil appears before you.  'Thank you, my friends, for destroying Braun Vog Baug.  You have my heartfelt appreciation.  I am afraid, though, that I still need you life force to restore my body to its original form.'  With that, he once again attacks.

Shantil has the same stats as before, only he does not know the Escape Spell.


D.  The chest in the upper right hand corner of the room contains 1000 Gold Coins.  The chest in the lower left corner contains 2 artifacts - Vest of Missile Protection and Blast Blade.  The last chest, in the lower middle part of the room, contains 2 artifacts - Necklace of Glittering and FlameFury.  See the artifact cards in the cards.bmp file for descriptions of these artifacts.

After all the treasure has been found, read "You have destroyed Shantil and discovered the secret treasure room.  Long have you dreamed of this day; ever since you discovered the map you have thought of the great riches that the room would contain.  Whether the treasure and artifacts were worth the pain and sacrifice that you went through to get them is questionable.

You wearily exit Shantil's Lair, and begin hiking back to the village, knowing that a mug of ale is waiting for you there.

The End
