WONDER CAVE. Two formidable looking faces are carved into the rock,
located at areas 'A' and 'B'. Carved into the north rock wall are
the words “Evocarnata Giocherellonata”.
The
face at area A looks like a gigantic demon face, with a mouth large
enough for a person to pass through while the face at area B looks
like an abstract terrified human face (a bit like Edvard Munch's The
Scream). Its mouth is much smaller, a man would have to crawl in to
enter the cavity.
If
the words on the north wall are read aloud, one of the following will
happen:

Result
|
1
|
The
demon face will spit out an angry piscodaemon.
|
2
|
The
screaming face will stick a long tentacle-like tongue out and try
to grab the reader (attack as 16+ HD monster). If it hits it will
drag the reader inside its mouth and chomp for 5-20 points of
damage. If it misses it will retract the tongue with a whimper.
|
3
|
The
demon face will spit out a diamond (base value 5000 gold
crescents).
|
4
|
The
screaming face will scream causing 2d4 damage to everyone in the
room (save vs spells for half damage).
|
5
|
The
demon face will animate and offer to take the reader where ever
they want to go (teleport without error) if they climb into
its mouth. It will keep its word.
|
6
|
The
screaming face will weep holy water (about 10 vials worth).
|
7
|
The
demon face will spit out an imp, who will serve the reader
faithfully for one day before abandoning the party forever (with a
cackle).
|
8
|
The
screaming face will change to a smile. It looks scarier than the
scream.
|
9
|
The
demon face will answer any one question asked by the reader
truthfully (Dungeon Master's decision on whether the demon face
knows the answer to the question).
|
10
|
The
screaming face will exhale a rain cloud which will then cause a
minor downpour. No damage but torches will be extinguished.
|
11
|
The
demon face will telepathically beam a random third level
magic-user spell into the reader's mind. The reader may now use
the spell as a spell-like ability (instantaneous, no components
needed) once only.
|
12
|
The
screaming face will cast fear (as the wand) at everyone
except the reader, who will instead gain +3 on to hit and damage
rolls when facing his or her next combat.
