Leading the skeletons first, he moves into the large chamber. This oddly shaped chamber has a door on the back wall he entered and many different colored pools on the ground – 14 in all. Mosaic tiles are imprinted on the floor in an array of alternating patterns, scintillating the seven colors of the rainbow over and over again in pattern.

Each of the pools has something different in it. Well, one pool is empty. Each pool has something different, and Alzar is sure some are good and some bad. One could be poison and other water and a third lava and a fourth forget-me-not potion, and so forth. It’s basic dungeon design 101when designed by idiots. He has no desire to spend a bunch of time tossing in coins and testing liquids to find the right one to heal him or whatever. Not right now at least.

Alzar has a skeleton open the door, and it opens into a large barracks, and inside are 7 goblins that are in various states of battle. Some have weapons in hand, others armor, and some nothing. The goblins move to the skeletons. Alzar summons Skeletal Hands to assist. Meanwhile his skeletons clash with the goblins. They carve two dead that were unarmored. The others dodge away and one hits a skeleton for 3 damage.

Alzar’s group win init. His knife barely misses a goblin. The skeletons kill a 3rd goblin while they finish getting weapons. They stab and slay a skeleton, They win init and mostly miss. One hits for one damage with a spear (half damage from piercing weapons). The skeletal hans and two skeletons take out a 4th goblin dn wound a 5th. They keep init. They kill the barely wounded skeleton after a crti hit, and the skeleton and hands finish of the wounded goblin. Two gobs left. Alzar arrives. His group wins back init, and Alzar stabs out with a staff and misses. His minions scrap and slay a the goblin and the last one misses and is killed the next round.

70 XP

Alzar searches with his skeleton and pair of hands. They find in the barracks:

72 gp
