TOMB. A violet fungus is located about six feet from the entrance.
The rich black earth of the floor is covered with a riot of
multicolored mushrooms. A natural shelf along the southwest wall
holds a stone sarcophagus.
Violet
Fungus (AC 7; MV 1”; HD 3; hp 16; #AT 3; D Rotting poison; XP 199)
This
particular fungus has three branches. Anyone struck by a branch must
save versus poison. A failure to save causes death as the
flesh-rotting poison overwhelms the body.
This
room was used to inter the previous king, but the ratkin are foul
creatures so it was eventually turned into a dumping place for trash,
scraps, and other unwanted objects. With the deposition of so many
items, many of which had an organic nature, fungal growths naturally
took a liking to the area. The rats abandoned the area when the
violet fungus made it completely inhospitable.
Within
the sarcophagus is the mummified corpse of Trewkins's antecedent.
The body has several striking irregularities. There are four
forelimbs, two larger ones in the normal positions, and two tiny ones
sticking out of the chest. The head is oversized in comparison to
the body, and there are three tails. On the chest of the body is a
golden crown (2500 gold crescent value) and one hand clutches an orb
of office, actually a large pearl worth 900 gold crescents.
