UPPER DUNGEONS LEVEL ONE 24 XVART COMMON ROOM.

24 XVART COMMON ROOM. Several xvarts are here. They are getting ready to join the party in Room 21. 

Tunards, Xvart Net-Bearer (AC 7; MV 6”; HD 2; hp 8; #AT 1; D Small sword for 1d4+1 or net; SA Net; XP 44) 

Tunards is tall and strong for an xvart, standing 4 feet. She can toss her weighted net up to twenty feet away. The net attack ignores the effect of normal armor, only dexterity bonuses and magic should be used to determine armor class. If she hits, the victim must save versus paralyzation or be treated as 'off balance' (+2 to be hit) and cannot attack, use spells requiring somatic components, etc. until the net is removed, which takes 1d3+1 rounds. 

2 Male Xvarts (AC 7; MV 6”; HD 1-1; hp 4, 2; #AT 1; D Small sword for 1d4+1; XP 14, 12) 

14 Female Xvarts (AC 7; MV 6”; HD 1-1; hp 7, 1, 5, 4, 2, 3, 2, 4, 2, 5, 5, 1, 3, 1; #AT 1; D Small dagger for 1d3; XP 17, 11, 15, 14, 12, 13, 12, 14, 12, 15, 15, 11, 13, 11) 

Each xvart has 0-9 (1d10-1) copper pieces and 0-5 (1d6-1) silver crescents. 

This room has a ceiling height of eighteen feet. The whole room smells of damp and unwashed cloth doublets. There are dozens of unmade bunkbeds, some as high as four beds in a stack. The walls are decorated with paintings of bird-headed men, women, and children having picnics in a variety of improbable landscapes (in the desert, at the bottom of the sea, on a cloud island, in a volcano, etc.) 

The secret door in the north wall will open when one of the adjacent paintings is turned ninety degrees to the right.
