(ie. “Bluto the Fighter”) as each adventurer passes by. For
dispel magic purposes, treat it as cast by a magic-user of level 24.</span></span></div>

THRONE GAMES. There are three thrones facing the arena, the center
elevated above the other two. There is a switch on the right arm of
the northern throne. Pressing it will cause the center throne to
suddenly pitch forward while the section of the wall in front of the
throne swings outward. This will throw the occupant of the center
chair down to Room 76 on Level 6, falling thirty feet to the sands
below. The throne and wall section will then, just as suddenly,
return to their original positions.</span></span></div>

which point he will gain movement and attack capabilities as a human
fighter of level 7. He is immune to spells that do not affect
undead. He can be turned by good clerics as if he was a paladin
being turned b an evil cleric but turning him will do no good while
he is just a skull.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;">145 TO 152 TOMB OF THE FALLEN. This area holds special darkness.
Light works but normal light such as torches and lanterns only
radiate five feet. Magical light extends up to ten feet. The edge
of the darkness extends and contracts apparently randomly,
occasionally collapsing almost to the light source before retreating
in a hurry. If any person enters the area without a light source
they will feel a slowly increasing coldness and have 1d3 hit points
sucked out per turn. Creatures that are not alive are immune to this
phenomenon. <i>Exorcising</i> the Wretched Fallen will eliminate the
darkness and damage effects.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;">When
the Fallen appears it begins as a pinpoint green light just above the
floor. It slowly grows into a howling spherical mass of distorted
tortured faces and limbs about ten to fourteen feet in diameter. It
attacks with spectral weapons common to gladiators such as short
swords and tridents. It can make 1d4+6 attacks per round and its
variable shape means that it can attack characters up to twenty feet
apart.</span></span></div>

</span><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: white; font-size: small;"> <span style="font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;">It
takes two rounds to become strong enough to attack, during which time
it can be attacked itself but only by spells or weapons of +3 or
greater, as it is still extremely insubstantial. On the third round,
it has gathered sufficient strength that it can attack normally and
any magic weapon can strike it.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">
</span><div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: white; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;">It
is immune to spells that do not affect undead. It cannot be turned
in Rooms 145 to 152 and because it cannot cross the Arch Of Bones at
Area 145, it will never become susceptible[tible to clerical turning. It
represents the souls of all the gladiators and slaves slaughtered in
the arena and buried within this area.</span></span></div>

defeated, the Wretched Fallen is not destroyed, but will remain
dormant for 1d4 turns, a period in which it will not be encountered.
After this time it will revert to its normal 10% chance per turn. It
can only be permanently removed by <i>exorcism</i>.</span></span></div>

state of drunkenness.</span></span></div>

attacked first, the tiger is 90% unlikely to attack if thrown some
food. Even if not thrown food it is 70% unlikely to attack, since
it is feeling quite lazy and content.</span></span></div>

foot circumference sits lonely near the south wall. Upon one aspect
is a fleshy well-formed mouth. </span></span>

the stone is asked three questions it will do its best to answer
them. It knows everything the Dungeon Master knows, but some
questions regarding the future may be impossible for it to answer.
It will refuse to answer more than three questions, merely saying “I
have answered your questions three, now silent I will be!”</span></span></div>
