The 2 ghasts dwelling herein are the leaders of
this complex and the one to the southeast (areas 113-114-115-116-117).
They are large and lazy, and bully the weaker
ghasts and
ghouls, getting the best of the food
and loot.
The larger of this pair gains a + 1 bonus to all
"to hit" and damage rolls; <figured in, below>
it wears a gold chain. Neither ghast retreats
as do the others. Unless forced away by a cleric
or magic,
both stay and fight to the death; they
love
their life of ease and know that it is lost if
they show weakness.

| This AREA is plastered and wainscoated in
some (now ruined) wood. It was evidently some form of trophy or museum room, and several broken cases are shoved against the walls. A serviceable but moldy shield hangs on the west wall. 2 great heaps of old cloth and pillows and like materials are formed to serve as beds. |
The larger ghast wears a gold chain worth
7, 000 gp, set with 3 small
rubies worth
1, 000 gp each. The smaller
has a ruby ring
(worth 4, 000 gp) so encrusted with dirt and
filth that it goes unnoticed unless the monster's left hand is carefully
and specifically
examined.
(Total XP: 14,000)
The shield on the west wall is a shield + 1, <(Large shield, XP:
250)>
long forgotten by the remaining Temple
authorities. The only other treasure is worn
by the room's inhabitants.
