INNER WARD GROUND LEVEL 27 SERVANTS' QUARTERS.

27 SERVANTS' QUARTERS. The walls are hideously papered in green and yellow stripes, and there are four beds with sheets and blankets of similar green and yellow stripes. The floors are yellowed wood and a 10' square green and yellow striped throw rug is present in the center of the room. A large chest is against the south wall and a painting of a Triskelion statue is on the west wall.

If anyone touches or steps on the throw rug, or if anyone tampers with the chest, they will both animate and attack as if they were affected by the clerical animate object spell.

Animated Rug (AC 8; MV 2”; HD 3; hp 19; #AT 1; D Strangle; XP 117)

If it strikes, it will do no damage the first round, but 1-6 points of strangulation/smothering damage each round thereafter, not requiring additional “to hit” rolls. It takes double damage from fire and sharp-edged weapons but is immune to blunt weapons.

Animated Chest (AC 4; MV 6”; HD 4; hp 21; #AT 1; D 2-8; XP 144)

It can attack once per round with its lid, smashing for 2-8 points of damage. It takes double damage from fire and cutting weapons such as axes.

A small trapdoor is under the rug. Opening it reveals small wooden cubby holding a bag of 27 gold crescents and a bloodstone of base 50 gold crescent value.
