28. Staircase and Guardpost
 
A natural grotto lit by an oil lamp wedged into a crack in the wall
gives access to a tightly spiraling staircase that leads up.

The stairs lead up about 25 feet to area 7 on the main level.

2 goblins and a worg stand guard here, keeping an eye on the
stairs and defending areas 29–32 <29, 30, 31, 32> against intruders. In a fight, the
goblins try to pin down foes while the worg uses its speed to attack
from the flank or rear. It circles through area 29 if necessary
to gain an advantage.

Goblins (2): AC 6; MV 6”; HD 1–1; hp 3 each <2 each>; #AT 1; D 1–6
(spear), 1–6 (short sword), or 1–4 (sling).
<gladius, cinquedea>
<-1 damage>
<THACO 20>
<Total XP 24>





Worg: AC 6; MV 18”; HD 3+3; hp 15 <18>; #AT 1; D 2–8 <+1>.
<THACO 20> 
<XP 180>



Any combat here alerts the goblins in areas 30 and 31 and the
worgs in area 32.
