THE GOLDEATER. An undead creature stumbles about this place. IHis
arms and legs are skinny and his neck and face show skin stretched
tight over his skull and vertebrae, but his belly is so swollen that
it mimics pregnancy. This is the goldeater and he was obsessed with
gold in life. He can smell gold and will attack the person carrying
the most gold with the intention of killing them and taking their
gold, which it will then swallow. If noone is carrying any gold he
will ignore intruders.
The
Goldeater, Restless Dead (AC 5; MV 12”; HD 4+3; hp 22; #AT 2 claws
and 1 bite; D 1-4/1-4/1-6; SA Paralysis; SD Silver or magic weapons
to hit, limited spell immunity; XP 390)
It
paralyses as a ghast. Inside the goldeater's abdominal cavity are
3653 gold coins. They are decorated with an 'H' on one side and a
skull on the opposite.
I swear your entirely free dungeon is so much better than many paid OSR products I've seen when it comes to how evocative each encounter gets. Keep up the good work!
