129. GUARDROOM

5 guards are alert here at all times. 1 facing the door, and another posted ten feet up
the northeast corridor (position G on the
map), are armed with heavy crossbows and
longswords. Each of the others has a javelin,
to be hurled before closing to melee. Each
guard wears chain mail armor with a brown surcoat; each carries a shield covered in brown leather and bearing a black triangular boss.
This triangle device is also sewn to their surcoats.
In any disturbance, the guards alert area 130 (or 128, as appropriate).
Each guard carries 2-8 cp, 2-8 sp, and 2-8 ep.
(4, 5, 4, 6, 8, total cp: 27)
(4, 5, 5, 2, 3, total sp: 19)
(5, 3, 6, 4, 5, total ep: 23)
(Total treasure XP: 11)

This 20' square room was obviously a
guard room. Racks for weapons still
remain on the eastern wall. A table with
4 chairs takes up the northwest corner. A
water barrel, nearly full, stands beside
the west door, with a bundle of ten
torches beside it. A single torch burns on
the south wall. 2 candles light the
table. Some rectangular bone markers
are on the table, by a jug and several 
ceramic mugs. Several pegs and hooks
on the south wall hold old brown cloaks,
a leather bag, and a shortbow with a
quiver of 5 arrows.

<A lit brazier is in the center of the room.>

<long table>
<barrel: 26.25 gallons, 210#>
<tallow candles>
<quiver, 20 arrows cap.>

The bone markers are dominoes, worth 5 gp
for the set. The jug holds watered wine, and
the leather bag is filled with hard biscuits
and dried apples.
