233. SIDE CHAMBER

The leader of the bugbears and his lieutenant occupy this room with 3 females
(who are comely, as bugbears go— though
they do not go far in that direction). All are
clad in black. The leader and lieutenant are
unusually strong, gaining damage bonuses
of + 2 and + 1 (respectively) with any held <note that all male bugbears have 17 STR>
or hurled weapon; each carries a spear in
battle, to be hurled before engaging with
other weapons. The females are aggressive,
and FIGHT with the males.

The largest male wears a gold chain from
which depends a golden skull emblem (jewelry value 175 gp),
and carries a pouch containing 23 gp, 15 pp, and 6 bits of turquoise (each worth 10 gp). <large pouch>
<turquoise bits: 10 gp, 10 gp, 5 gp, 4 gp + 1 ep, 10 gp, 9 gp>

This 20' square room shows signs of
having been the sleeping chamber of
some personage of importance. The
walls are plastered and bear murals,
albeit the plaster is now broken and
stained and most of the painting is
ruined. Rugs are still on the floor, and a
huge bed stands in the southwest corner.
Another heap of bedding and pillows
occupies the northwest corner. A cabinet
stands beside the bed, along with a small
table, a large wardrobe, and a brazier.
2 lamps hang from ceiling chains, and
4 sconces adorn the walls.

<rugs, 9 square yards each, 45# each: 117 gp, 109 gp, 95 gp, 80 gp>

The wardrobe is stuffed with old clothing, some tapestries (one of which is worth 350 gp), a sack of food, <small sack>
5 bottles of wine, and miscellaneous junk.
