Sleeping Cave The smell in here is strong enough to overpower the bitter cold that usually numbs your senses. It is the reek of unwashed skins and rancid sweat. A pile of sodden furs lies in the centre of the cave and is the obvious source of the stench. Grommen and his concubine of the moment, Sneg, are sprawled under the covers. If the Player Characters have taken pains to be quiet they are both asleep, but any noise wakes them. Sneg cowers rather than fights. If Grommen hears fighting in the nearby chamber, he comes roaring out to slaughter those who dare interfere with what is his. If he only hears the sounds of small creatures moving, he hides behind the cave opening, ready to ambush anyone who steps through. The Games Master should use the weremammoth statistics given on page 122 for Grommen. He fights with an adamantine greataxe, an heirloom of his lycanthropic lineage. It is engraved with scenes of mammoths trampling hundreds of tiny humans underfoot. Grommen’s Hoard: Grommen’s only wealth is carried on his person. He wears a platinum torc (worth 4,500 gp) and carries a ceremonial shortspear, useless in combat, carved from a mammoth tusk (worth 500 gp). A skull like that of a wolf with little horns forms a clasp for his fur cape. It is made from a pearl-like substance; a Knowledge (the planes) check (DC 20) identifies it as extraplanar in origin. This is the mother-ofpearl skull of a skitterjinx (see Unusual Creatures of the Cold Waste, page 157), worth 1,300 gold pieces. Grommen carries a pouch in which are several tiny, dried fungi. A Knowledge (nature) check (DC 20) identifies these as a rare toadstool, the berserker fungus, used by the barbarian warriors of Boskenland. Consumption of one of the berserker fungi allows a barbarian to extend his rage period by five rounds. If a non-barbarian consumes one of the fungi, he temporarily enters rage as if he were a 1 st level barbarian; however, at the end of the rage, he must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 20) or be nauseated for 1d4 rounds. There are eight dried toadstools in the pouch. Non-Player Character Group: The Wreckers The wreckers of Ommersdale are a band of especially savage and degenerate frost giants led by a pair of weremammoths, who have moved south away from their original home because the land is being overrun by unfamiliar monsters. They are tired of being eaten by glacial oozes and soul-drained by whiteladies. The region around Ommersdale is not as cold as they would like but it will suffice for now. Grommen, the leader of the troupe, and his son Gurt are the weremammoths. The other frost giants are females, considered inferior and reduced to the status of cooks and concubines. Grommen wishes to extend the line of giant weremammoths, though none of his brood but Gurt has shown the signs of inherited lycanthropy yet, which is why Grommen killed his other children before they grew any older. The female giants have accepted their lives of servitude but would welcome freedom. If the Player Characters kill one or both of their overlords they beg to be spared, promising to help the Player Characters on their quest. They offer themselves, in all seriousness, as cooks and companions. They will accompany the party for as long as it suits them, offering to tend to animals and guard the camp. However, they will refuse to fight enemies and Ibon Presno Gonzalez (order #73006) 8 121
