The ferocious arboreans offer blood sAC；rifices to their strange idols, lush plants that they believe sustain the spirits of their ancestors. Arboreans are humanoids with tough, brown skin similar in texture to tree bark. They are violent, stalking and killing all who enter their lands. Arboreans hang intruders above their sAC；red gardens to allow their blood to nourish the plants below.

阿伯瑞恩战术

　　阿伯瑞恩收割者齐射出带毒的针叶缓慢他们的猎物，这让它们可以在敌人逃跑之前用他们残酷的长柄镰刀干掉他们。
　　守卫们负责监视通向阿伯瑞恩领地的道路，哨兵从埋伏处攻击。它们尽量使用折磨之藤让凶恶的植物从地面喷出并长时间的困住它们的牺牲者们，这让它们从远处变为隐形，然后在近战中疾走进出。一旦隐形，哨兵用冲锋攻击敌人。
　　议长是阿伯瑞恩的牧师，负责与它们的植物神祇共鸣并揭示神祇的要求。在战斗中，议长仅会潜伏在它们的随从之后，在使用鼓舞孢子支援盟友之前利用阻塞孢子分裂敌人。
　　植物恐怖是努力将敌人敲碎成血淋淋碎肉的简单蛮战。它前进到任意近战前面，努力用它的威胁触及尽可能的约束对手。在战斗中无畏的活化生物植物恐怖一点也不关心会寡不敌众。它面对越多的敌人，它就能更好的利用它的攻击。

Arborean TAC；tics

Arborean reapers fire volleys of poisoned needles that slow their quarry, allowing them to finish off enemies with their cruel scythes before they can escape.
  Sentinels charged with watching the paths to arborean lands, watchers attAC；k from ambush. They attempt to use vine plague to cause long, tough plants to erupt from the ground and trap their victims, allowing them to turn invisible from a distance and dart in and out of the melee.
Once invisible, watchers use a charge to attAC；k a foe.
  Speakers are the priests of the arboreans, charged with communing with their plant gods and revealing the desires of those gods. In battle, speakers lurk just behind their followers, using choking spores to disrupt enemies before turning to invigorating spores to support allies.
  The plant terror is a simple brute that attempts to batter foes into bloody pulps. It strides to the front of any melee, attempting to engage as many opponents with its threatening reAC；h ability as possible. Fearless in battle, an animated plant terror cares little for being outnumbered. The more foes it fAC；es, the better it can utilize its attAC；ks.

阿伯瑞恩知识

　　通过一个成功的自然鉴定角色知道以下情报：
　　DC 15：阿伯瑞恩是居住在深渊和原始森林最偏远地区的奇异的类人植物。它们俘获并杀死那些侵犯它们领土的生物，并用新鲜的血液喂食它们崇敬的植物。
　　DC 20：阿伯瑞恩讨厌火焰。它们会受到额外的火焰伤害并不自觉的远离伤害它们的火焰。

Arborean Lore

A charAC；ter knows the following information with a successful Nature check:
  DC 15: Arboreans are strange plant humanoids that dwell in the deepest, most isolated regions of primeval forests. They capture and kill those who trespass on their territories to feed fresh blood to the plants they worship.
  DC 20: Arboreans hate fire. They take additional damage from flames and involuntarily move away from fires that hurt them.

阿伯瑞恩文化

　　阿伯瑞恩是恶毒的讨厌教化的部落生物种族。每一个部落都围绕着一个它们死后被埋葬的神圣树林。阿伯瑞恩在这个树林中栽种树木、灌木和其他的植物。它们相信它们祖先的精魂会进入这些植物并通过森林传播开去。任何进入阿伯瑞文领土侵犯了神圣土地的人将会招致残忍的攻击。
　　阿伯瑞恩习惯索取，那些被杀死的入侵者将为了平息它们的祖先而被作为供养。杀死的仇敌和俘获的敌人被悬挂在部落最神圣的植物之上，让他们滴下的血液滋养他们下面的植物。一个生擒的俘虏可能被高高的挂起，切开几个地方，给他留下缓慢而痛苦的死亡过程。一旦牺牲者流尽了血液，他的头颅和骨骼将被悬挂在阿伯瑞恩领土的边缘以警告将来的入侵者。
　　阿伯瑞恩们被议长支配，主教与部落祖先的精魂共鸣并就它们的利益演讲。在一个部落中每十个阿伯瑞恩通常会存在一个议长，而议长们作为一个整体在会议中决定重要问题。
　　大多数阿伯瑞恩居住在地面上，但是一些部落住进被植物和蕈类充斥的幽暗地穴的洞窟之中。这些韦伯瑞恩和它们的地表表亲一样，只是它们的神圣树林由巨大的蘑菇和丛生的蕈类而不是树木和其他植物组成。
　　当一个阿伯瑞恩部落面对一个可怕的威胁，它的成员们恳求它们的祖先保护它们远离危害。部落神圣树林的地面搅动喷发着释放植物恐怖，山般巨大体型的生物由染血的土壤、根须和植物混合而成。
　　阿伯瑞恩很少以其他的类人生物一起工作，它们喜欢独处。它们有时袭击附近的定居点，偶尔一个强大的德鲁伊可能与它们缔结联盟。
　　阿伯瑞恩有少许对奥术魔法的认知，它们泛灵论传统排斥几乎所有形式的神术魔法。
　　收割者组成部落猎人和战士的主体。它们以那些在它们手臂和躯干萌芽的带毒针叶而著名。在战斗中，它们对它们的敌人齐射出这些针叶。
　　哨兵是潜伏在部落领土边缘的侦查员和守卫。它们使用原力魔法融入背景之中并呼唤地面生长的藤蔓抓住它们的敌人。
　　作为阿伯瑞恩部落祭司和萨满的议长，与部落祖先的精魂共鸣。它们在处理部落每日事物上求助于这些精魂建议和指导。
　　奇异的植物可恐怖是活化生物，它们攻击那些过于接近阿伯瑞恩神圣花园的入侵者。议长们也能呼唤它们出来处理特别强大的敌人。

Arborean Culture

Arboreans are vicious, tribal creatures that hate civilized rAC；es. EAC；h tribe is centered around a sAC；red grove where its dead are buried. The arboreans plant trees, bushes, and other plants atop these graves. They believe that their ancestors’ spirits enter these plants and spread through the forest. Anyone who enters arborean territory violates this sAC；red ground and invites a brutal attAC；k.
  Arborean custom demands that intruders be killed and fed to the ancestors in order to appease their wrath. Slain enemies and captured foes are hung above the tribe’s most sAC；red plants, where their blood drips down to nourish the plants below. A living captive might be strung up, cut in several plAC；es, and left to die a slow, painful death. Once a victim has been drained of blood, his skull and bones are hung at the edge of the arborean territory as a warning to future invaders.
  Arboreans are ruled by speakers, high priests that commune with the tribe’s ancestor spirits and speak on their behalf. There is usually one speaker for every ten arboreans in a tribe, and the speakers meet as a group to decide important issues.
  Most arboreans dwell above ground, but some tribes occupy plant and fungus-choked caverns of the Underdark. These valloreans are identical to their surfAC；e cousins, except that their sAC；red groves consist of enormous mushrooms and fungus growths rather than trees and other plants.
  When an arborean tribe fAC；es a dire threat, its members call upon their ancestors to defend them from harm. The ground of the tribe’s sAC；red groves churns and erupts to unleash the plant terrors, hill giant-sized creatures that are an amalgam of blood-drenched soil, roots, and plants.
  Arboreans rarely work with other humanoids, preferring to keep to themselves. They sometimes raid nearby settlements, and occasionally a powerful druid can forge an alliance with them.
  Arboreans have little knowledge of arcane magic, and their animistic tradition precludes almost every form of divine magic.
  Reapers make up the main body of a tribe’s hunters and warriors. They are distinguished by poisonous needles that sprout from their arms and torsos. In battle, they fire volleys of these needles at their enemies.
  Watchers are scouts and sentinels who prowl the edge of a tribe’s territory. They use primal magic to fade into the bAC；kground and call vines to grow from the ground and grasp their foes.
  As the priests and shamans of the arborean tribes, the speakers commune with the tribe’s ancestral spirits. They turn to these spirits for advice and guidance in running the tribe’s daily affairs.
  The strange plant terrors animate and attAC；k intruders who draw too close to the arboreans’ sAC；red gardens. The speakers can also call them forth to deal with particularly powerful foes.

薇若莱丝之头

　　薇若莱丝之头是一个在这次冒险中扮演着重要角色的人工制品。冒险者们在进入金字塔的第一个房间就遇见头颅，如果他们允许，它会帮助并指引他们通过金字塔直到他们逃脱。然而，它有它自己的记录，这些记录可能完美的与冒险者们的目标一致，或者可能不一致。

Head of Vyrellis

The Head of Vyrellis is an artifAC；t that plays a central role in this adventure. The adventurers encounter the Head in the first chamber of the pyramid, and if they allow it to, it helps and guides them through the pyramid until they escape. It has its own agenda, however, which might or might not perfectly align with the goals of the adventurers.

薇若莱丝之头　英雄级

　　这是一个很容易握在你的手掌中的漆黑的黑曜岩法珠。当你凝视它的如墨的深处之时，它会浮出被切断的雅灵公主头颅的幻象并且你听见她那如歌唱的诉说："我是薇若莱丝，我会为任何持有这个法珠的人提供帮助。"薇若莱丝之头是一个有着下列特性和威能的奇物。

　　特性：你在神秘、历史和宗教检定上获得一个+2的加值，并且可以如同已经受训了这些技能一般的进行检定。
　　威能（遭遇）：移动动作。你可以传送最多7格。
　　威能（每日）：标准动作。你被一股寒风气旋围绕。在邻接你的位置开始其回合的生物受到1d6的寒冷伤害并被缓慢直到他们的下一个回合开始。

Head of Vyrellis Heroic Level

This orb of darkest obsidian easily fits in the palm of your hand. As you stare into its inky depths, the severed head of an eladrin princess floats into view and you hear her sing-song voice, “I am Vyrellis, and I offer my assistance to whoever carries this orb.” The Head of Vyrellis is a wondrous item with the following properties and powers.

Property: You gain a +2 bonus to Arcana, History, and Religion checks and can make checks as if trained in those skills.
Power (Encounter): Move AC；tion. You can teleport up to 7 squares.
Power (Daily): Standard AC；tion. You are surrounded by a cyclone of biting cold wind. Creatures that begin their turn adjAC；ent to you take 1d6 cold damage and are slowed until the start of their next turn.

薇若莱丝之头的目标

　　✦　将薇若莱丝生命活力的三个碎片再次结合并带着它们逃出暗影金字塔。
　　✦　摧毁克兰沃克斯或者确定他被困在暗影金字塔之中。
　　头颅的附加目标由你决定，这取决于你想在这个冒险之外如何使用（或是否使用）这件物品。

Goals of the Head of Vyrellis

✦ Reunite the three splinters of Vyrellis’s life force and escape with them from the Pyramid of Shadows.
✦ Destroy Karavakos or make sure he remains imprisoned in the Pyramid of Shadows.
The Head’s additional goals are up to you, depending on how (or whether) you want to use the item beyond the scope of this adventure.

扮演薇若莱丝之头

　　薇若莱丝之头是傲慢，文艺而又富有口才的--非常像一个活生生的雅灵贵族。
　　当冒险者们第一次遇见头颅时，它会对克兰沃克斯的故事进行基本的解释（参看第16页）。它为冒险者们摧毁克兰沃克斯并逃离暗影金字塔提供帮助。它保留寻找它自己生命活力碎片的秘密，直到它的同步值最少达到12。它催促角色带着它去获得所有这些被发现的物品，暗示它们的意义而不提供解释。

劇透 -   :

Roleplaying the Head of Vyrellis

The Head of Vyrellis is haughty, cultured, and eloquent-very much like a living eladrin noble.
  When the adventurers first encounter the Head, it explains the basics of Karavakos’s story (see page 16). It offers to help the adventurers destroy Karavakos and escape from the Pyramid of Shadows. It keeps its search for the splinters of its own life force secret until its concordance is at least 12. It does urge the charAC；ter carrying it to take possession of those items if found, hinting at their significance without providing all the details.

愉悦（16-20）

　　“诚然，在你内心有伟大的一面，英雄。”
　　薇若莱丝之头很高兴并被他的所有者感动，它有非常高的期望来完成它的目标。它真诚的帮助并同所有者分享它的知识。
　　特性：你获得10点光耀抗性。
　　威能（每日？幻术）：标准动作。你隐身直到你的一次攻击失手或者受到伤害。

劇透 -   :

Pleased (16–20)

“Truly, you have greatness in you, hero.”
  The Head of Vyrellis is pleased and impressed with its owner, and has high hopes of AC；hieving its goals. It’s genuinely helpful in sharing its knowledge with the charAC；ter.
Property: You gain resist 10 radiance.
Power (Daily ✦ Illusion): Standard AC；tion. You become invisible until you miss with an attAC；k or take damage.

满足（12-15）

　　“你做的很好。如果你不是阻碍了事情的继续，我们刚才就可以离开这里了。”
　　如同它原本一样骄傲，薇若莱丝之头不会对一个普通的凡人抱有更多的期待。它尝试给予更多有效地关于它所有者能够期待发现任何金字塔内的地区的介绍，但是它的知识很有限。它能描述在位置6-10的阿伯瑞恩，它知道位置26的龙是白色的，它知道最后到达金字塔并忽视了它求救的生物定居在位置11和13。
　　头颅也解释薇若莱丝生命活力被分割城散落在金字塔内部的三块宝石。当宝石再次结合，薇若莱丝能够得到最后的休息--甚或恢复生命。
　　特性：你在意志防御上获得一个+1的加值。
　　威能（每日？心灵）：标准动作。近程爆发3；+13vs.意志；2d3+3点心灵伤害，并且目标眩晕（豁免结束）。

劇透 -   :

Satisfied (12–15)

“You are doing well. If you don’t foul things up, we might just get out of here.”
  Proud as it is, the Head of Vyrellis couldn’t reasonably expect more from an ordinary mortal. It tries to give helpful information about what its possessor can expect to find in any region of the pyramid, but its knowledge is limited. It can describe the arboreans in Locations 6–10, it knows that the dragon in Location 26 is white, and it knows about recent arrivals to the pyramid that ignored its pleas for help and took up residence in Locations 11 and 13.
  The Head also explains that Vyrellis’s life force is splintered and contained within three gemstones scattered through the pyramid. With the stones reunited, Vyrellis can pass to her final rest-or perhaps even return to life.
Property: You gain a +1 bonus to Will defense.
Power (Daily ✦ Psychic): Standard AC；tion. Close burst 3; +13 vs. Will; 2d6 + 3 psychic damage, and the target is dazed (save ends).

正常（5-11）

　　“不错，你已经比挂在墙上的钓钩强多了。”
　　薇若莱丝之头对它新的"所有者"有一点信心，但它只能被折服。如果被询问，它给出有关金字塔内各部分的基本介绍，但是只在角色们靠近时这么做。它谈论在位置6-10的"那些植物怪物"、位置14和15的"图书馆"、位置20-24的"怪异的恐怖东西"、位置26的"龙"和位置27-29的"亡者"。它断言不知道任何细节。

劇透 -   :

Normal (5–11)

“Well, you’re better than hanging from a hook on the wall.”
  The Head of Vyrellis has little confidence in its new “owner,” but is willing to be convinced. If asked, it gives basic information about what’s in eAC；h section of the pyramid, but only as charAC；ters get close. It speaks of “those plant monsters” in Locations 6–10, “the library” (14 and 15), “aberrations, horrible things” in Locations 20–24, “a dragon” around Location 26, and “the walking dead” in Locations 27–29. It claims ignorance of any details.

不满（1-4）

　　“这样永远不行。”
　　所有者打乱了她的计划，而薇若莱丝只有微弱的希望能够逃出金字塔了。她最害怕落入克兰沃克斯的碎片的手中。它不为它的所有人提供任何情报。
　　特殊：你立刻失去一个复原力并且每天都会比前一天少一个复原力。

劇透 -   :

Unsatisfied (1–4)

“This will never do.”
  The owner is making a mess of her plans, and Vyrellis has little hope of escaping the pyramid. Its greatest fear is falling into the hands of one of the splinters of Karavakos. It doesn’t share any information with its possessor.
  Special: You immediately lose one healing surge and start eAC；h new day with one less surge than the day before.

愤怒（0或以下）

　　“蠢材！我要求你将我交给能够胜任的人手中！”
　　头颅积极的寻找一个它感觉有机会击败克兰沃克斯并胜利逃出金字塔的角色。
　　特殊：你在意志防御上获得一个-2的惩罚。

Angered (0 or Lower)

“Imbecile! I insist you put me in the care of someone competent!”
  The Head AC；tively seeks a charAC；ter it feels has a chance to defeat Karavakos and win escape from the pyramid.
  Special: You take a –2 penalty to Will defense.

Setup
2 carrion crawlers (C)
Gurrak, ettin headtaker (G)

　　位置1：每个被吸进暗影金字塔的生物都会到达入口之坑。当冒险者们完成遭遇A1（参看冒险书一第6页）之时会到达这里。坑中充满了那些在克兰沃克斯征服的奴隶以及奠定他的王国失败期间--特别是因为他--死亡的尸体。作为他的持续惩罚和监禁的一部分，这个坑包含了冲突两边的护卫，无害的战争伤员、克兰沃克斯压迫统治的受害者和一些克兰沃克斯渐渐因不信任而放逐、关押或因冒犯他而被杀死的朋友和顾问。
　　当冒险者们到达时介绍，现在它们全都在这，在坑的内部，旋转着流入或者流出以保持尸体深度的精确性。偶而，一个或多个尸体活化为僵尸持续的战斗下去，它死了但却以它的方法前往光之避难所提醒克兰沃克斯他过去的诸多罪恶。
　　一个被偶尔出现在凡界的金字塔困住的生物是哥伦克，一个将入口之坑当做他自己的个人猎场的双头巨人。他从填满了坑的军队中收集头颅，但是由于这个地方的魔法它们总会消失并回到坑中。所以，哥伦克更喜欢猎取新到的生物的头颅，他是如此自豪的爱好炫耀。
　　当冒险者们出现在坑中时，想玩家们战士在冒险书一第23页的“入口之坑的地图”，并读道：
　　当你突然出现在大量尸体之上时，死亡和鲜血的恶臭向你袭来。人类、矮人、精灵、半身人和所有其他的生物表面上都是最近被杀的却穿着旧时代的盔甲。那对尸体看起来在挪移，好像某些东西正在它之下移动。在你上面，坑的最高处，你看见一个丑恶的、两个脑袋的巨人--他正在擦拭两把刀刃伴随着从他两个脑袋上的眼睛发出的渴望的光芒。

劇透 -   :

Location 1: Every creature drawn into the Pyramid of Shadows arrives in the Entrance Pit. The adventurers arrive here when they complete Encounter A1 (see Adventure Book One, page 6). The pit is full of the bodies of those who died during-and specifically, because of-Karavakos's failed attempt to conquer and settle his kingdom. As part of his ongoing punishment and imprisonment, this pit contains the fallen soldiers from both sides of the conflict, the innocent casualties of war, the victims of the oppressive reign of Karavakos, and the series of friends and advisers that Karavakos grew to increasingly distrust until he had them banished, imprisoned, or put to death for displeasing him.
  Now they are all here, within the pit, rotating into and out of existence to maintain the exact depth of bodies that are present when the adventurers arrive. Occasionally, one or more of these bodies animates as a zombie to continue the fight in which it died or to work its way toward the Sanctuary of Light to remind Karavakos of the many sins of his past.
  One creature that was trapped during the pyramid's occasional appearance in the natural world is Gurrak, an ettin who has claimed the entrance pit as his own personal hunting ground. He collects heads from the corpses that fill the pit, but they disappear and eventually return to the pit thanks to the magic of the place. So, Gurrak much prefers to hunt new arrivals for the heads he so proudly likes to display.
  When the adventurers appear in the pit, show the players "View of the Entrance Pit" on page 23 of Adventure Book One, and read:
A stench of death and blood assails you as you appear suddenly atop a pile of bodies. Humans, dwarves, elves, halflings, and others, all apparently recently killed but all wearing clothing and armor of an earlier age. The pile of bodies seems to shift, as though something might be moving beneath it. Above you, at the top of the pit, you see a hideous, two-headed giant-he's rubbing two blades together with an eager gleam in the eyes of both its horrifying heads.

战术

　　哥伦克在坑的顶部战斗，利用他的推动威能尽可能保证角色们位于坑内。他的触及让他很容易接触到PC们。如果他能杀死一个冒险者，他立即尝试将这个角色带到陈列墙一边他可以陈列切掉角色的头颅。
　　食腐虫呆在坑内并将它们的攻击集中在超出双头巨人触及的角色上。如果角色们爬出坑，食腐虫会追过去。如果他们重伤，他们会逃入坑内。
　　在战斗的第二个轮，三个坑内的尸体被活化并攻击冒险者们。他们曾是为了克兰沃克斯英勇战斗过的模范战士。现在，作为僵尸，它们堕落的复苏再次战斗并且他们将冒险者们当做敌人。将是不要标记在地图之上；它们按照先攻顺序在它们的回合从坑内的尸体中复活。

Tactics

Gurrak fights from the top of the pit, using his push powers to keep characters in the pit for as long as possible. His reach allows him to easily reach the PCs. If he can manage to kill one of the adventurers, he immediately tries to carry that character over to the display wall so that he can begin preparing the character's head for display.
  The carrion crawlers stay in the pit and focus their attacks on characters that to move out of the ettin's reach. If the characters climb out of the pit, the carrion crawlers follow. They flee into the pit if they are bloodied.
  In the second round of combat, three of the bodies in the pit animate and attack the adventurers. These are former soldiers that once fought so bravely for Karavakos. Now, as zombies, they rise to resume the battle in which they fell-and they see the adventurers as the enemy. The zombies are not marked on the map; they rise from among the bodies in the pit on their turn in the initiative order.

扮演哥伦克

　　哥伦克将所有新到达的生物作为他收集的对象。特别的，他将冒险者们作为带来他渴望删除并在他的收藏中展现的头颅的带来者。同样的，他将每个角色用“东西”或“它”不停地重复“它的头颅正好是我之前丢掉的。”、“我需要那个。”和“那个正好是我需要完成我收藏的东西。”

劇透 -   :

Roleplaying Gurrak

Gurrak treats all new arrivals as objects to add to his collection. Specifically, he treats the adventurers as carriers for the heads he longs to remove and display in his collection. As such, he refers to each character as "thing" or "it," constantly repeating "its head is just what I've been missing," and "I need that," and "that's just what I need to complete my collection."

区域特征

　　照明：微暗光线。
　　坑：坑从尸堆顶部有10尺深，到隐藏在尸体之下的底部有20尺深。坑内部的格子是困难地形。攀爬坑壁要求通过一个DC20的运动检定。
　　一个DC22的历史检定显示出装饰在坑内大部分尸体上的护甲、武器和衣物可以追溯到耐若斯时代，大约300年之前。
　　任何护甲或武器一旦从这个区域带走，就会在离开坑时消失。它们最后由于金字塔的魔法回到坑内。
　　凹室：四个被截断的头颅（H）悬挂在东北方的凹室上木钉上。这些头颅包括一个男性影灵、一个男性兽人、一个女性人类和一个男性人类。每个头颅看起来好像都是仅仅在之前一段时间内摘掉的。
　　一个袋子悬挂在第五个木钉上。他看起来和头颅一样大小而且是有着球状的某种物体。袋子内的物体是薇若莱丝之头的人工制品，一个保存着雅灵公主薇若莱丝一丝精神的法珠。

Features of the Area

  Illumination: Dimly lit.
  Pit: The pit is 10 feet deep to the top of the pile of bodies, and another 20 feet deep to the bottom, which is hidden beneath the bodies. Squares inside the pit are difficult terrain. Climbing the wall of the pit requires a DC 20 Athletics check.
  A DC 22 History check reveals that the armor, weapons, and clothing that adorns most of the bodies in the pit dates back to the late Nerath era, circa 300 years ago.
  Any armor or weapons taken from the pit disappear once they are carried beyond this area. They eventually return to the pit thanks to the magic of the pyramid.
  Alcove: Four severed heads (H) hang on pegs in the northeastern alcove. These heads include a male shadarkai, a male orc, a female human, and a male human. Each head looks as though it was freshly removed from its corpse only moments ago.
  A sack hangs from the fifth peg. It's about the same size as the heads, and seems to hold some kind of sphereshaped object. The object inside the sack is the Head of Vyrellis artifact, an orb that holds the lingering spirit of the eladrin princess Vyrellis.

结束

　　当冒险者们击败了双头巨人，在凹室的头颅召唤着他们。读：
　　“你们离开那！我们能互相帮助彼此，我刚知道它。”一个女性的声音从凹室的左侧传来。
　　薇若莱丝的声音持续呼唤冒险者们，知道他们中的一个摘下袋子将黑曜石法珠展示给大家看。如果在队伍中存在一个雅灵或精灵，薇若莱丝会直接向那个角色解释并寻求帮助，直到至少一个冒险者占有法珠并变成它的所有者。
　　“你们已经被这个监狱中最强大的居民，克兰沃克斯--国王和征服者--的意志拉了进来。”薇若莱丝解释道：“逃出这里的唯一途径就是摧毁最讨厌的那个法师。但是完成这样的人物，向你们这样的生物会需要我的帮助的。”
　　薇若莱丝解释克兰沃克斯最基本的历史。薇若莱丝仍然不会表露这里有许多绕着金字塔到处转的克兰沃克斯的版本，也不会完全解释她在此时此刻的地位。但是她会尽她全力去说服冒险者们帮助她，这样她就可以帮助他们。
　　一旦头颅的同步值达到12，它将要求冒险者们调查收集薇若莱丝生命活力的碎片。这是一个在完成时奖励2,000XP的主要任务。
　　参看薇若莱丝之头（冒险书一第22页）的描述作为情报。

Conclusion

When the adventurers defeat the ettin, the Head calls out to them from the alcove. Read:
  "You out there! We can help each other, I just know it," calls a female voice from the alcove to the left.
  The voice of Vyrellis continues to call to the adventurers until one of them takes down the sack and reveals the obsidian orb for all to see. If there is an eladrin or elf in the party, Vyrellis directs her comments and pleas to that character, at least until one of the adventurers takes possession of the orb and becomes its owner.
  "You have been drawn into this prison by its most celebrated inmate, Karavakos the would-be king and conqueror," Vyrellis explains. "The only way to escape is to destroy that most-hated wizard. But to accomplish such a task, creatures the likes of you will need my help."
  Vyrellis explains the basics of the history of Karavakos. Vyrellis will not yet reveal that there are multiple versions of Karavakos running around the pyramid, nor will she fully explain her own situation just yet. But she will do everything else in her power to convince the adventurers to help her so that she can help them.
  Once the Head's concordance reaches 12, it offers the adventurers the quest to collect Vyrellis' splinters of life force. This is a major quest that awards 2,000 XP upon completion.
  See the description of the Head of Vyrellis (page 22 of Adventure Book One) for information.

ENCOUNTER P2: CHAMBER OF RATS

Encounter Level 7 ( 1,500 XP )

Setup
  16 charnel rats (R)
  Boneslide hazard

Location 2: The Pyramid of Shadows is infested with charnel rats, vermin that serve the Charnel Lord (see Encounter P4 on page 6). These rats crawl through the walls and floors of the pyramid, feeding on the flesh of whatever dies by accident or violence, and on the necromantic energy that infuses the pyramid, particularly Locations 27–29. This chamber serves as their nest.

When the adventurers open the door, read:
Cold air brushes past as the door opens, carrying the smell of dust and freshly turned dirt. A fine white powder dusts the floor, except in the far corner, where bones form an enormous mound.

Perception Check
DC 20: Within the scattered dust you see the clear print of a small claw or a line made by a tail dragging along the floor.
DC 25: A large crack runs along the frame of the door in the north wall-large enough for a small animal to squeeze through. Similar cracks are evident in the walls in both chambers.

Sixteen charnel rats lurk in this room, staying out of sight in the bone piles until prey is in reach. They begin to spill out when the adventurers have all entered the room and moved past the doors leading to the refuse chamber.

Tactics

Charnel rats attack by surrounding their foes. Their only tactic is to put as many rats adjacent to each enemy as possible. They enter combat gradually-four rats emerge in the first round, then eight more, and finally the last four in the third round. This prevents all sixteen rats from being caught in a single area effect power.[/size]

ENCOUNTER P4: THE BEAST IN THE PIT

Encounter Level 8 ( 1,750 XP )

Setup
Charnel lord (C)
6 charnel rats
Pivoting floor and wall trap (T)

Location 4: When the adventurers enter this area, it appears as a plain hallway or chamber, 20-feet wide and 20-feet tall, with a door and a statue at either end and a staircase leading from the northeast. Don’t draw or place D&D Dungeon Tiles for the slope down to the pit until the trap is triggered.

When the adventurers enter the hallway, read:
A statue of a robed figure stares down the length of this wide hallway toward an exact duplicate on the other end.

When the adventurers trigger the trap, read:
The floor you’re standing on suddenly tilts wildly as the wall to the south falls away. Both pivot in such a way as to hurl you down a chute to the south. The stench of rot and decay emerges from the chute as you go hurtling down it.

区域特征

　　照明：微暗光线。
　　陡坡：墙壁变成了一个光滑而短小的地板，陡坡通往拥有同样特征的坑。角色可以通过一个DC23的运动检定以半速攀登陡坡。靠近墙的角色可以依靠墙攀爬，这会在检定上获得一个+2的加值。
　　坑：在陡坡的底部是一个10尺深充满污秽的坑，是葬尸领主完美的家。掉落坑中的角色受到1d10点伤害。坑底部的格子是困难地形。爬出坑需要通过一个DC28的运动检定。
　　陷阱：陷阱不仅仅只是将角色们丢进葬尸领主所在的坑，它将他们限制在陡坡之中。每次它被触发，地板和墙都会转动，将冒险者们丢入滑到，并将葬尸鼠释放进入门厅。陷阱每轮只能被激活一次。所以，如果它被一个角色激活，直到这个角色下一轮开始它不能再次被激活。
　　当陷阱被触发时，如果任何角色站在陷阱区域最北边一排的四格中的任何一格中。他们会在地板转动时掉入地板之下的隔间之中。这会对每个角色造成1d10点伤害。另外，每一轮角色都处在地板下的漆黑的黑暗之中，在角色的回合开始时骰1d6。结果表明有多少葬尸鼠在这个角色回合开始时接近了他或她（参看在葬尸鼠部分的"腐烂灵气"）。
　　如果陷阱第三次转动，在地板下隔间的角色们被推入更深的黑暗之中。另一个转轴使他们沉积在门厅的地板上。所以，如果陷阱每轮都被触发，在地板下的角色们必须花费两轮呆在老鼠中间，受到围绕着的每个老鼠的灵气伤害。

劇透 -   :

Features of the Area

Illumination: Dimly lit.
Steep Slope: The wall that becomes a floor is smooth and slick, and the short, steep slope leading to the pit has the same characteristics. A character can ascend the slope at half speed with a DC 23 Athletics check. A character adjacent to a wall can use the wall to help climb, gaining a +2 bonus to the check.
Pit: The pit at the bottom of the slope is 10 feet deep and full of filth, making it a perfect home for the Charnel Lord. Characters who fall into the pit take 1d10 damage. The squares at the bottom of the pit are difficult terrain. Climbing out of the pit requires a DC 28 Athletics check.
The Trap: The trap not only hurls characters into the Charnel Lord’s pit, it also confines them within the sloped chute. Each time it is triggered, the floor and wall pivots, hurling adventurers into the chute and depositing charnel rats into the hallway. The trap can only be activated once per turn. So, if it is activated by a character, it can’t be activated again until after the start of that character’s next turn.
  If any characters are standing on any of the squares in the four northernmost rows of squares in the chute area when the trap is triggered, they are dumped into the space beneath the floor when the floor pivots. This deals 1d10 points of damage to each character. In addition, for each round that a character remains in the pitch-black darkness beneath the floor, roll 1d6 at the start of a character’s turn. The result indicates how many charnel rats are adjacent to the character at the start of his or her turn (see “aura of rot” in the charnel rat stat block).
  If the trap pivots a third time, characters in the space beneath the floor are pushed deeper into the darkness. Another pivot deposits them on the floor of the hallway. So, if the trap is activated each turn, characters must spend two turns amid the rats beneath the floor, taking damage from the aura that surrounds each rat.

战术

　　葬尸领主击中攻击和它同在坑内的角色。如果没有角色陷入坑中，它会用它的长触及攻击任何在靠近坑内两格的人。
　　葬尸鼠设法让尽可能多同类围绕在角色周围。在这个位置的老鼠因为陷阱和突变而惊恐，它们会将它们的恐惧和愤怒向最近的冒险者发泄。它们会战斗到死。（注意，在地板下隔间的葬尸鼠不会攻击PC们，但是PC们依然会受它们腐烂灵气的影响，如下所述。）

劇透 -   :

Tactics

The Charnel Lord focuses attacks on characters who are in the pit with it. If no characters land in the pit, it attacks characters within its reach, anyone within the two rows of squares closest to the pit.
  The charnel rats try to crowd as many of their number as possible around the characters. The rats, startled by the trap and the sudden change in location, take their fear and anger out on the nearest adventurers. They fight to the death. (Note that charnel rats in the space beneath the floor don’t attack the PCs, but the PCs still suffer from their auras of rot, as described below.)

旋转地板和旋转墙（T）　等级7　障碍
陷阱　XP300
陷阱：当相邻的墙壁向上倾斜时，地板向下倾斜将角色们从门厅滑落到葬尸坑中。墙壁变为滑坡的一部分，而地板则变为阻碍逃跑的墙壁。本质上，这个旋转结构是自旋的，以便地板变成墙壁而一个新地板来替换它，如此这样它就能每次都被一个新角色触发效果（见下文）。
侦查
？DC 25：橘色注意到前面的地板和南边墙上的缝隙，而且在北边墙下的刮痕暗示着陷阱的运行。
？DC 28：角色也认出在南墙内部陷阱区域的一个陌生特征：它非常顺畅光滑。
触发
当一个角色穿过陷阱格并到达他或她进入区域的对面至少一排格子时，陷阱被激活。整个建筑自旋90度，这让墙壁变成滑道，地板变为墙壁，而一个新的地板突然从下方升上来。陷阱每轮只能被触发一次。
攻击
直觉打断　近程冲击4；
目标∶在冲击范围内的生物（在地图上标记的陷阱区域）
效果∶墙壁和地板以一个惊人的速度转动，将生物从地板上丢到光滑的墙上并滑下滑道，造成1d10点伤害。一个DC25的运动检定可以在进入坑之前停止滑动到至少靠近坑的第二排的格子上，否则角色掉进10尺深的坑中并受到另外1d10点伤害。
当新地板升起，六只葬尸鼠散落在上面，它们是从地板下的隔间--老鼠集群和陷阱转轴所在的位置--被拉上来的。
特殊：这个陷阱每次在一个角色通过陷阱格时被激活。

劇透 -   :

Pivoting Floor and Wall (T) Level 7 Obstacle
Trap XP 300
Trap: The floor tilts up as the adjacent wall tilts down, sliding characters from the hallway down a sloped chute toward a charnal pit. The wall becomes part of the sloped chute, and the floor becomes a wall that cuts off escape. In essence, this pivoting construction spins so that the floor becomes the wall and a new floor replaces it, so that it can activate each time a new character triggers the effect (see below).
Perception
✦ DC 25: The character notices seams along the floor and south wall, as well as scrapes at the bottom of the north wall that hints at the trap’s function.
✦ DC 28: The character also spots a strange characteristic of the southern wall within the trapped area: it is unusually smooth and slick.
Trigger
When a character crosses the trapped squares and reaches the last row of squares on the opposite side of where he or she entered the area, the trap activates. The whole construction spins 90 degrees, so that the wall becomes the chute, the floor becomes the wall, and a new floor snaps into place from below. This trap can only be triggered once per turn
Attack
Immediate Interrupt Close blast 4
Targets: Creatures in blast (trapped area marked on map)
effect: The wall and floor pivot at an amazing rate of speed, hurling creatures from the floor onto the slick wall and down the chute, dealing 1d10 damage. A DC 25 Athletics check halts a slide in one of the last two rows of squares before the pit, otherwise the character falls into the 10-foot-deep pit and takes another 1d10 damage.
When the new floor snaps into place, six charnel rats are scattered atop it, drawn up from the space beneath the floor where the rats swarm and the trap pivots.
Special: This trap activates as described above each time a character crosses the trapped squares.

陷阱之后的弹簧

　　取决于冒险者们怎么靠近这间房间，他们中的一些将会进入或靠近坑，而另一些将会呆在门厅中。
　　任何呆在门厅中的角色必须处理葬尸鼠；在陷阱区域的任何位置放置六只老鼠。如果更多葬尸鼠进入战斗，调整XP。
　　任何在滑道和坑内的角色必须处理葬尸领主。
　　为怪物投先攻，然后让战斗开始吧！

After the Trap is Sprung

Depending on how the adventurers approach this chamber, some number of them will be in or near the pit, and some will be in the hallway.
  Any characters in the hallway must deal with the charnel rats; place the six rats anywhere within the trapped area. If more charnel rats enter the battle, adjust the XP.
  Any characters in the chute and pit area must deal with the Charnel Lord.

逃出陷阱：

　　如果任何角色呆在门厅之中，他们可能远离激活陷阱的危险区域所在的触发格。这可能用于最后让被困住的冒险者们退入门厅，尽管他们需要进行一次黑暗的遍布葬尸鼠的旅程。
　　然而，如果所有的角色停在滑道上，想要逃出这个陷阱还是有点难的。没有办法反向推动转轴（逆时针方向），而唯一的从滑道内部激活陷阱的方法就是穿过光滑的地板站在在最后触发陷阱的那排格子相反的那格。
　　停在地板之下的隔间里是最坏的位置。不仅需要角色们在漆黑的区域处理由所有葬尸鼠产生的腐烂灵气，还需要他们必须找出怎样激活转动地板以离开这个奇怪的角度。当处在隔间之下，角色需要通过一个DC24的侦查检定来发现触发装置，而一个DC21的贼活检定可以触发他。如果角色拥有光源，这个检定获得一个+2的加值。转动的墙壁和转动的地板基本形态是两个在黑暗的地板下的两间房间，所以检定必须在每个隔间中各做一次。

Escaping the Trap

If any characters remain in the hallway, they can avoid the triggering squares and activate the trap from outside the dangerous area. This can be used to eventually deposit trapped adventurers back into the hallway, though not before a trip through darkness and a mass of charnel rats.
  If all of the characters wind up in the chute, however, figuring out how to escape from this trap is a bit harder. There’s no way to push against the direction of the pivot (counter clockwise), and the only way to activate the trap from inside the chute is to cross the smooth floor to stand in an end square opposite from the row of squares which last triggered the trap.
  Winding up in the space beneath the floor is the worst possible situation. Not only must the characters in this pitch-black area deal with the auras of rot generated by all of the charnel rats, they must figure out how to activate the pivoting floor from this strange angle. While in the space below, a character needs to make a DC 24 Perception check to find a triggering mechanism, and a DC 21 Thievery check to activate it. If the character’s have a light source, these checks receive a +2 bonus. The pivoting walls and floor basically form two chambers in the darkness beneath the floor, so the checks must be made in each compartment.

ENCOUNTER P5: FLOODED CHAMBER

Encounter Level 8 ( 1,750 XP )

Setup
2 blackscale bruiser lizardfolk (b)
1 greenscale marsh mystic lizardfolk (M)
2 greenscale elite hunter lizardfolk (H)
Water pipe trap (T)

Location 5: Water fills this room to a depth of 4 feet.

When the adventurers enter the room, read:
The stairs disappear into murky water that covers the floor of this odd-shaped chamber. Three other stairways lead out of the chamber, and a platform floats atop the water on the eastern side of the chamber. A heavy door stands in the wall beside the platform. Two hulking, reptilian creatures rise from the water near the middle of the room, and three smaller figures swim around them.

Perception Check:
DC 23: The water isn't stagnant. It ripples and froths at the base of the stairs.

战术

　　黑鳞蜥蜴人将他们的攻击集中在一个防护者角色身上。他们呆在中心管道口附近，使用他们的巨木棒攻击以将除了他们关注的对象以外的敌人推到管道中，然后退开并让其他的蜥蜴人可以对付他们。
　　湿地秘术师选择一个能将它的湿地庇佑灵气使尽可能多的盟友受益的位置。一旦黒鳞暴徒与角色们进入近战，它就使用沼泽束缚控制角色们和暴徒战斗的区域，在必要时还会将它的盟友包括在爆发内。然后它会在它能将尽可能多的敌人笼罩在爆发内一边伤害并眩晕他们时使用沼云术，然而它也愿意只影响一个目标，如果这样做意味着减少一个PC打击者或控制者一轮的威胁。如果它被真正的威胁到，它游进水管逃走，利用运动检定尽量避免陷阱的负面效果并进行一次隐秘检定以躲藏在靠近管道另一端的水下。它会保持躲藏直到冒险者们发现它或离开房间。
　　猎手喜欢攻击那些离开他们盟友的角色，利用侧跃突袭快步到他们敌人身边攻击然后快步离开。

Tactics

The blackscale lizardfolk focus their attacks on a single defender character. They stay near the center pipe mouth and use their greatclub attacks to push foes other than the object of their attention into the pipe and away to where the other lizardfolk can deal with them.
  The marsh mystic chooses a position such that the greatest possible number of its allies benefit from its marsh blessing aura. As soon as the blackscale bruisers engage characters in melee, it uses swamp's grasp in the area where the characters and bruisers are fighting, including its allies in the burst if necessary. It then uses bog cloud as often as it can to hurt and daze as many enemies as it can catch in the burst, though it's content to affect just a single target if doing so means reducing the threat of a PC striker or controller for a round. If it is seriously threatened, it swims into a water pipe to escape, using Athletics to try to avoid the negative effects of the trap, and makes a Stealth check to hide underwater near the other end of the pipe. It stays hidden until the adventurers find it or leave the room.
  The hunters prefer to attack characters who are separated from their allies, using sidestep attack to shift near their foes and then shift away.

区域特征

　　照明：微暗光线。
　　水：水深4尺。中体型角色们可以费力的跋涉过水，将它视为困难地形。小体型角色们必须使用运动检定来游泳。蜥蜴人的沼泽行者能力让他们可以用正常速度移动（和快步）通过水。
　　在水中游泳的生物对攻击有遮蔽。实际上，这意味着绿鳞蜥蜴人、小体型角色们或者哪些选择游泳而不是跋涉过水的中体型角色们在移动时有遮蔽，或者帮助他们避免借机攻击。生物们也可以用水的遮蔽隐藏。
　　管道陷阱：在地图上标记的四个位置是将水（和生物）吸入然后吐出的管道，随机的将水送到房间周围。蜥蜴人知道管道的位置，这让它们可以避开或者为它们的利益而使用它们。

水管（T）　等级7　障碍
陷阱　XP300
一股突然从水下面传来的吸力将你拉了下去。然后，又突然的将你和浑浊的水一起喷发出去。
陷阱：在水下地板之间的管道通过吸入水并排出水这种处理，使遍及房间的水不断的循环。
侦查
✦DC 23：角色注意到水不是流动的。在各个楼梯底部的水中泛起了涟漪和泡沫。
触发
当一个角色进入地图上的陷阱所在的格，或者在邻接这些格开始他或她的回合时，陷阱被激活。
攻击
直觉打断　近战
目标∶进入陷阱格或者在邻接陷阱格开始其回合的生物。
攻击∶+9vs.强韧
命中∶1d10+4点伤害，并且目标被晕眩（豁免结束）。目标被吸入管道并被在瞬间之后于房间内的任意管道排出（投1d4）。目标可以选择他们浮现时的占据格。
对策
✦生物可以有意的游向管道。进行一个DC17的运动检定来避免攻击。一个失败的检定表明上述攻击依然发生。
✦角色可以通过一个DC23的侦查检定发现在房间东面平台上的机械装置。这个机械装置综合了魔法和齿轮控制着管道吸入/排出的周期。一个成功的DC25的神秘或贼活检定能使一个管道作废（随机决定）。一个失败的检定导致所有的管道对在陷阱格中或邻接陷阱格的任何生物进行一次立即的攻击。三次成功的检定之后，所有的管道都会关闭。

　　平台：平台上布满的水和藻类让它变得光滑，穿过它是一个挑战。一个DC18的杂技检定允许一个角色以半速穿过平台。检定失败的角色倒地。
　　重木柱将平台抬高到略高于水面的位置。操作水管的机械装置在平台之下（参看上述的陷阱对策）。在平台之下的空间十分紧密有限，所以一个中体型角色必须挤入（并屏住他或她的呼吸）到达机械装置的位置。挤入的角色们在攻击骰上承受一个-5的惩罚并为所有敌人提供战斗优势。
　　门：在平台上的门被锁住了（一个DC24的贼活检定能够打开）。
　　房间：在门后是一个小房间，干燥而温暖。当冒险者们进入房间时，读：
　　在房间遥远角落的位置屹立着一个雕刻成游雅的持矛雅灵骑士的雕像。纯石大招的雕像的前额装饰着一颗明亮的月长石。"你必须为我保护那块月长石。"薇若莱丝之头对角色说道并占有它。
　　月长石是薇若莱丝生命活力的一个碎片。一个DC19的贼活检定能将石头从它的放置处拿出来。如果角色将月长石交给薇若莱丝之头，头颅的同步值增加3点。

Features of the Area

  Illumination: Dimly lit.
  Water: The water is about 4 feet deep. Medium characters can wade through the water, treating it as difficult terrain. Small characters must use Athletics checks to swim. The lizardfolks' swamp walk ability allows them to move at normal speed (and shift) through the water.
  A creature swimming in the water has concealment against attacks. In practice, this means that the greenscale lizardfolk, Small characters, or Medium characters who choose to swim rather than wade have concealment while moving, possibly helping them avoid opportunity attacks. Creatures can also use the water's concealment to hide.
  Trapped Pipes: The four locations marked on the map are pipes that suck water (and creatures) in and spit it back out, randomly moving the water around the room. The lizardfolk know the locations of the pipes and either avoid them or use them to their advantage.

Water Pipe (T) Level 7 Obstacle
Trap XP 300
A sudden suction from beneath the water pulls you under. Then, just as suddenly, you explode back out in a gush of roiling water.
Trap: Pipes in the floor beneath the water constantly cycle through a process of sucking in water and expelling it to circulate the liquid throughout the chamber.
Perception
✦ DC 23: A character notices that the water isn't stagnant. It ripples and froths at the base of each staircase.
Trigger
When a character enters one of the trap spaces on the map, or starts his or her turn adjacent to these spaces, the trap activates.
Attack
Immediate Interrupt Melee
Targets: Creatures entering a trap space or starting their turn adjacent to a trap space.
Attack: +9 vs. Fortitude
Hit: 1d10 + 4 damage, and the target is dazed (save ends). The target is sucked into the pipe and expelled an instant later from a random pipe in the chamber (roll 1d4). The target can choose which square within the trap to occupy upon emerging.
Countermeasures
✦ A creature can intentionally swim into a pipe. Make a DC 17 Athletics check to avoid the attack. A failed check indicates that the attack occurs as described above.
✦ A character can fi nd a mechanism beneath the platform on the east side of the chamber with a DC 23 Perception check. The mechanism, a combination of magic and gearworks, controls the intake/outtake cycle of the pipes. A successful DC 25 Arcana or Thievery check disables one of the pipes (determined randomly). A failed check causes all of the pipes to make an immediate attack on any creatures within or adjacent to the trapped spaces. With the third successful check, all of the pipes shut down.

  Platform: The platform is slick with water and algae, making it challenging to walk across. A DC 18 Acrobatics check allows a character to move at half speed across the platform. A character who fails the check falls prone.
  Heavy wooden posts lift the platform so that it is just above the surface of the water. The mechanism that operates the water pipes is located beneath the platform (see the trap's Countermeasures, above). The space beneath the platform is tightly confined, so a Medium character must squeeze (and hold his or her breath) to access the mechanism. Squeezing characters take a –5 penalty to attack rolls and grant combat advantage to all enemies.
  Door: The door leading off the platform is locked (DC 24 Thievery check to open).
  Room: Beyond the door is a small room, dry and warm. When the adventurers enter the room, read:
A statue in the far corner of the room depicts a graceful eladrin knight with a spear. The plain stone is adorned with a bright moonstone set into the statue's forehead. "You must secure that moonstone for me," the Head of Vyrellis says to the character that possesses it.
The moonstone is one of the splinters of Vyrellis's life force. A DC 19 Thievery check removes the stone from its housing. If the character carrying the Head of Vyrellis takes possession of the moonstone, the Head's concordance increases by 3.

　　一些阿伯瑞恩、他们的尖叫鬼婆盟友和一只凶暴野猪一直作为警戒兽巡逻迷宫。
　　当冒险者进入这个房间，向玩家们战士冒险书一第24页的"树篱迷宫的地图"并读下列文字：
　　当进入这个房间时，你们注意到地板、天花板和墙上覆盖着厚厚的肥沃的泥土。你么看到从地板到天花板的密集灌木，形成一堵迫使你向左或向右转的墙。昏黄的光芒充斥着房间。相当密集的灌木阻挡了视线，它们的蔓藤还被细长尖锐的荆棘所覆盖。

ENCOUNTER C1: HEDGE MAZE

Encounter Level 7 ( 1,450 XP )

Setup
2 arborean reapers (R)
Arborean watcher (W)
Howling hag (H)
Dire boar (

Location 6: This chamber is filled with a lush, carefully tended hedge maze. Unlike the rest of this level of the pyramid, the floor here is covered in rich, thick sod. The ceiling above is also covered with thick dirt, and here and there roots grow downward from it. A small colony of arboreans, trapped in the pyramid several years ago, dwells in this area along with their fey allies. They use this area, along with similar defensive plants grown in Location 10, to defend their lair.
  Several arboreans, their howling hag ally, and a dire boar they keep as a watch beast patrol the maze.
When the adventurers enter this chamber, show the players “View of the Hedge Maze” on page 24 of Adventure Book One and read the following:
As you enter this chamber, you notice that the floor, ceiling, and walls are covered with thick, rich earth. You see a dense thicket that reaches from floor to ceiling, forming a wall that forces you to turn to the right or left. A dim yellow glow fills the chamber. The thickets are dense enough to block vision, and their vines are covered with long, sharp thorns.

战术

　　阿伯瑞恩使用打带跑战术对抗冒险者们，作为凶暴野猪铁砧的锤子。
　　仅仅是呗阿伯瑞恩控制的凶暴野猪暴躁的穿过树篱迷宫。它在任何可能的情况下冲锋，如果它将一个生物推进灌木丛中，那个生物将受到1d10点伤害并且受迫运动立即终止。野猪在任何可能的情况下尝试将冒险者们击倒在迷宫中心的灌木丛或小水坑中。在冲锋之后，它尝试远离目标以便布置另一次冲锋攻击。
　　两个阿伯瑞恩收割者在房间东面的密室中开始遭遇。他们企图在隐藏处悄悄的滑出并在冒险者们的背后攻击，从两个方向分开攻击。他们乐于远离混战几轮，以绕着房间移动到可以从后面攻击。他们喜欢在野猪吸引了任何战士和圣武士的注意时，集中力量攻击法师、邪术师和牧师。
　　阿伯瑞恩哨兵在每轮开始使用它的树木面纱保持隐形，以让它可以轻松的悄悄靠近冒险者们。一旦野猪攻击，哨兵尝试移动到被野猪吸引的角色们和其他群体之间，以让它既可以夹击前排的战斗者们也可以借助阿伯瑞恩收割者的援助扑向队伍的轻甲成员。
　　尖叫鬼婆用它的嚎叫将冒险者们推向夹击位或其他不利的位置。在遭遇开始时，它用变形来以一个年轻的精灵女性的样貌出现。如果冒险者们在遇到这间房间的其他守卫之前就遇到了她，她会尝试当业主和阿伯瑞恩埋伏好时转移冒险者们的注意力。尽管鬼婆已经与阿伯瑞恩结盟，她也会在她能击中两个或更多冒险者们时将阿伯瑞恩纳入攻击范围之内。
　　这间房间的生物会战斗至死。他们绝对盲信他们所效忠的部落和阿伯瑞恩议长，卡莫诺（参看位置9和遭遇C4）。

Tactics

The arboreans use hit and run tactics against the adventurers, serving as a hammer to the dire boar’s anvil.
  The dire boar, barely controlled by the arboreans, rampages through the hedge maze. It charges whenever possible, and if it pushes a creature into the thickets the creature takes 1d10 damage and its forced movement immediately ends. The boar tries to knock adventurers into the thickets or into the pool of water in the center of the maze whenever possible. After charging, it tries to move away from the party to set up a second charge attack.
  The two arborean reapers start the encounter in secret chambers in the eastern side of the room. They attempt to slip out of hiding and attack the adventurers from the rear, splitting up to strike from two directions. They are willing to hang away from the melee for a few rounds to make a circuit of the room and attack from behind. They prefer to focus on wizards, warlocks, and clerics while the boar keeps any fighters and paladins occupied.
  The arborean watcher uses its arboreal veil each round to remain invisible, allowing it to sneak up on the adventurers with ease. Once the boar attacks, the watcher tries to slip between the characters engaged by the boar and the rest of the group, allowing it to either move to flank front-line combatants or pounce upon the party’s lightly armored members with the aid of the arborean reapers.
  The howling hag uses its howl to push adventurers into flanks and other disadvantageous situations. It begins the encounter using change shape to take on the appearance of a young elf woman. If the adventurers come across her before the rest of this chamber’s guardians, she tries to distract them while the boar and the arboreans ready an ambush. Although the hag has allied with the arboreans, she is willing to include them in her attacks if she can also hit two or more adventurers.
  The creatures in this room fight to the death. They are utterly fanatical in their loyalty to their tribe and the arborean speaker, Camnor (see Location 9 and Encounter C4).

区域特征

　　这个地方已经明确的作为一个防止入侵者的防卫点而被改造。这样，地形就特别有利于阿伯瑞恩和他们的凶暴野猪宠物。
　　照明：微暗光线。
　　灌木丛：灌木丛是形成树篱迷宫的植物，当这个区域守卫尝试迂回攻击入侵者时这将迫使入侵者犯下错误。如果一个角色移动进入灌木丛，他的移动立即终止并受到1d10点伤害。灌木丛阻碍视线。单格灌木丛有30点生命值和10点火焰易伤。如果一格被摧毁，它变为空地。
　　池塘：在房间中心的池塘提供新鲜的饮水。它有10尺深，任何跌进其中的角色必须游泳。
困难地形：在房间部分地区的厚厚根须和荒草地是困难地形。这间房间的阿伯瑞恩和凶暴野猪忽略这些困难地形。他们十分熟悉房间并知道如何以全速穿过厚厚的根须和荒草地。
　　暗门：这间房间内的暗门由木制嵌板和部分降低的灌木丛组成。他们是阿伯瑞恩收割者等待入侵者的伏击点。认出一扇暗门需要通过一个DC28的侦查检定。一旦认出暗门，就可以很轻松的以一个移动动作开启门板。隐藏在暗门内的生物可以通过暗门看见外面，但是外面的生物无法看见隐藏的空间。

Features of the Area

This place has been specifically created to serve as a defensive point against intruders. Thus, the terrain heavily favors the arboreans and their dire boar pet.
Illumination: Dimly lit.
Thickets: The thickets were planted here to form a hedge maze, forcing intruders to blunder about while the guardians of this area attempt to outflank and attack them. If a character moves into a thicket, his movement immediately ends and he takes 1d10 damage. The thickets block line of sight. A single square of thickets has 30 hit points and vulnerable 10 fire. If a square is destroyed, it becomes clear terrain.
Pool: The pool in the center of this chamber provides fresh, drinkable water. It is 10 feet deep, and any character knocked into it must swim.
Difficult Terrain: Thick roots and uneven ground in some parts of the chamber form difficult terrain. The arboreans and the dire boar in this chamber ignore all difficult terrain here. They are familiar with the room and know how to move across the thick roots and uneven ground at full speed.
Secret Doors: The secret doors in this chamber consist of wooden panels woven with branches taken from the thickets. They hide ambush points where the arborean reapers wait for intruders. Spotting a secret door requires a DC 28 Perception check. Once spotted, the panels can be easily opened with a move action. A creature inside one of the hidden areas can see out through the secret door, but a creature outside cannot see into the hidden space.

遭遇C2：井坑

遭遇等级7　（1,850XP）

设置
　　阿伯瑞恩收割者（R）
　　3只蔓生怪（M）
　　半羊人风笛手（S）

　　位置7：阿伯瑞恩憧憬它们先祖的精魂。它们相信当阿伯瑞恩死亡时，它们的灵魂会栖息在由部落照料的神圣花园之中。在需要的时候，例如在面对攻击的敌人时，阿伯瑞恩呼唤先祖的精魂活化神圣的花园并催生出一个阿伯瑞恩植物恐怖，一个活化的大量根须、蔓藤、泥巴和岩石的集合体。被困在暗影金字塔内部的阿伯瑞恩部落试图创造一个小型的花园（参看位置8遭遇C3），一边呼唤一个植物恐怖帮助保护它们。埋伏在这里的三只被催生的蔓生怪守卫着花园。
　　这间房的深井地貌是由于阿伯瑞恩钻开地面以逃离金字塔的无用尝试的后果。蔓生怪潜伏在坑中。一个由阿伯瑞恩收割者和半羊人风笛手组成的警卫队警戒着蔓生怪并帮助他们击退任何攻击者。

　　当冒险者进入这个区域，读并解释下列文字：
　　一些人或一些东西在这个房间中挖了一个深井。地板上铺满了丰厚的沃土，一个宽阔的有着明显陡峭侧壁的坑穴占据着房间的中心。在坑的各个侧壁和底部看起像是一些蔓藤、石头和土壤，所有这些都被挤压成10尺宽的一丛。在坑的对面是一个有着山羊角，拿着风笛的生物。一把长弓斜挎在他的肩上。

ENCOUNTER C2: THE WELL

Encounter Level 7 ( 1,850 XP )

Setup
Arborean reaper (R)
3 shambling mounds (M)
Satyr piper (S)

Location 7: The arboreans worship the spirits of their ancestors. They believe that when an arborean dies, its soul inhabits the sacred gardens that the tribe tends. During times of need, such as in the face of an attacking enemy, the arboreans call upon these ancestral spirits to animate the gardens and produce an arborean plant terror, an animated mass of roots, vines, dirt, and rock. The arborean tribe locked within the Pyramid of Shadows managed to create a small garden (see Location 8, Encounter C3) and can call upon a plant terror to help protect them. Three shambling mounds, spawned to guard that garden, lurk here.
  This chamber features a deep hole dug into the ground by the arboreans in a futile effort to escape the pyramid. The shambling mounds lurk in the pit. An honor guard of an arborean reaper and a satyr piper stand watch over the shambling mounds and help them repel any attackers.

When the adventurers enter this area, read or paraphrase the following:
Someone or something has dug a deep hole in this chamber. The floor is thick, loamy soil, and a wide pit with sharply sloped sides dominates the center of the chamber. On the sides and at the bottom of the pit are what looks like several masses of vines, rocks, and soil, all pressed into 10-foot wide clumps. Across the pit stands a creature with goatlike horns, holding a set of reed pipes. A longbow is slung over its shoulder.

战术

　　当收割者和半羊人通过将冒险者们驱赶进深坑并防止他们从房间中逃走来支援蔓生怪时，蔓生怪尝试将入侵者拖入它们所在的深坑。
　　蔓生怪冲向最近的入侵者，疯狂的尝试吃掉他们。他们尝试呆在坑中，利用它们的触及将冒险者拉入泥土斜坡并困住他们（参看"区域特征"的细节）。
　　阿伯瑞恩收割者在东边的空房间开始遭遇。在战斗信号发出时，它奔跑过来援助蔓生怪。它用针叶齐发来减速坑内的角色，这是一个独特的破坏试图爬上斜坡的冒险者的战术然后它进入近身战，攻击近身战斗最好的目标并标记他们，让他们很少能与蔓生怪战斗。

Tactics

The shambling mounds attempt to drag intruders down into their pit, while the reaper and the satyr support the shambling mounds by driving adventurers into the pit and preventing them from escaping the chamber.
  The shambling mounds lunge at the nearest intruders in frenzied attempts to feast upon them. They try to remain in the pit, using their reach to pull adventurers into the dirt slopes and trap them (see "Features of the Area" for details).
  The arborean reaper starts the encounter in an empty chamber to the east. At the first sign of combat, it rushes out to aid the shambling mounds. It uses needle volley to slow down characters in the pit, a particularly devastating tactic against adventurers trying to clamber up the slope. It then wades into melee, attacking the party's best melee fighters to mark them and leave them less capable of fighting the shambling mounds.
  The satyr piper allied with the arboreans out of a sense of self-preservation. His name is Andaran, and he was drawn into the Pyramid of Shadows through a stroke of terrible luck. Amoral and supremely self-centered, he uses his longbow and his wooden pipes to hamper the adventurers. He dazes characters in the pit to hamper their efforts to escape and fires arrows at the party's ranged combatants. See the sidebar on this page for additional information about Andaran.

区域特征

　　照明：微暗光线。
　　坑：在这间房间中间的坑是这个区域唯一的显著特征。坑的侧壁急剧倾斜，到底面落差15尺，坑的底部有10尺长宽。滑下坑不像笔直坠落15尺一样致命。滑到坑底部的生物受到一半伤害（投1d10并取结果的一半的伤害，最少为1点伤害）。
　　沿坑侧壁向上移动，每一格花费三格移动力。向下移动则较为简单。在坑侧壁开始其回合的生物向坑底部滑动1格。
　　在坑斜壁移动的生物很难抵挡借机攻击。借机攻击在攻击骰上获得一格+2的加值，因为危险地形导致生物失去平衡而且很难保持本身的步调。
　　蔓生怪和所有大型或更大型的生物忽视倾斜地形的效果，但是半羊人和阿伯瑞恩收割者依然遭受上述效果。因此，阿伯瑞恩和半羊人会尽可能避免滑入坑中。

Features of the Area

Illumination: Dimly lit.
Pit: The pit in the middle of the room is this area's only notable feature. The pit has sharply sloped sides that drop 15 feet down to a flat, 10-foot by 10-foot space at the bottom. Sliding down into the pit isn't as deadly as making a straight 15-foot drop. Creatures that slide to the bottom of the pit take half damage from the fall (roll 1d10 and divide the result in half, minimum of 1 point of damage).
  Moving up the pit's sides costs 3 squares of movement per square. Moving down is easier. A creature that begins its turn on the pit's sides slides 1 square toward the bottom.
  A creature moving on the pit's slopes has trouble defending against opportunity attacks. Such attacks gain a +2 bonus to hit, since the treacherous terrain causes a creature to lose its balance and have trouble gaining proper footing.
  The shambling mounds and all Large or bigger creatures ignore the effects of the slope terrain, but the satyr and the arborean reaper suffer its effects as described above. For this reason, the arborean and the satyr do everything they can to avoid sliding into the pit.

一个半羊人的故事

　　如果两个蔓生怪被杀死，安多恩逃向西方（位置8，遭遇C3）。在这间房间中，他向最具有能力的保护者求助，他仍然会尽可能保持伊特怪和阿伯瑞恩在他和入侵的冒险者们之间。
　　如果安多恩被阿伯瑞恩强迫留下，他将投向并为冒险者们提供帮助。如果冒险者们接受半羊人的帮助，他将用他的音乐在战斗中帮助他们，但会不惜任何代价的避免卷入到近身战中。冒险者们第一次休息时，安多恩会尝试偷窃他能偷窃到的任何金币或药剂，然后逃亡之前被清理出的金字塔区域。他可能会与金字塔内的另一组怪物结成新联盟。
　　安多恩是一个爱吹牛并且夸夸其谈，他谈论一场盛大的竞技但很少有实际行动支持它。他有某种意义的胆小和自卫本能驱使，喜欢和为他提供安全的派系组队并尽可能要求以少量劳动获取报酬。如果冒险者们在之后的金字塔你的旅程中再次遭遇到他，他会战斗到死。

A SATYR'S TALE

If two of the shambling mounds are slain, Andaran flees to the west (Location 8, Encounter C3). In that chamber, he aids the defenders to the best of his abilities, yet takes care to keep the ettercaps and arboreans there between himself and the invading adventurers.
  If Andaran is the last of the arborean forces left standing, he surrenders and offers to aid the adventurers. Should the party accept the satyr's offer, he uses his music to help them in combat but avoids engaging in melee at all costs. The first time the party rests, Andaran tries to steal any gold or potions he can and flees to a previously cleared area of the pyramid. He might strike up a new alliance with another group of monsters in the pyramid.
  Andaran is a braggart and a loud mouth who talks a big game but rarely backs it up with action. He is driven by a sense of cowardice mixed with self-preservation, and prefers to team with a faction that offers him safety and requires as little work as possible in return. If the adventurers encounter him again later in their travels through the pyramid, he fights to the death.

ENCOUNTER C3: THE BLACK MEADOW

Encounter Level 5 ( 975 XP )

Setup
2 arborean watchers (W)
Ettercap fang guard (F)
Ettercap webspinner (E)

Location 8: This chamber has been converted to a dark meadow, a place where the arboreans tend to plants that hold the spirits of their departed elders. The arboreans have been trapped within the pyramid long enough to recreate their culture (such as it is) to the best of their ability.
  This is sacred ground, and the arboreans rely on the defenders in other parts of their controlled area to keep intruders away. As noted in Location 9 (Encounter C4), the arboreans make a last stand here only if they are sorely pressed. If the adventurers enter into this chamber before visiting Location 9, they likely face a relatively easy fight.
  The arboreans have woven illusions to make this room appear outdoors, but it is located within the pyramid.

When the adventurers enter, read the following:
The door to this chamber opens to the outdoors. A fresh breeze greets you as you take in the sight of a ring of lush, green trees. In the distance, you can see that a forest stretches off to the horizon. You are atop a towering hill, which offers a wondrous view of the forest all around you. As your eyes adjust to the bright glare of the noonday sun, you notice several stone plinths and a runic circle in the middle of the ring of trees.

战术

　　这个房间中的生物在隐藏中开始遭遇。它们利用树林提供的遮蔽躲藏在视线之外，直到他们跳出来攻击。怪物喜欢在目标已经进入树环之内时攻击，以便哨兵们可以在多个方向发动攻击。
　　这个房间内的伊特怪尽力控制入侵者，好让阿伯瑞恩哨兵利用他们的战斗优势的伤害加值摧残蹂躏冒险者们。和在位置7的半羊人（遭遇C2）相似，伊特怪也是出于自卫本能而与阿伯瑞恩结盟的。
　　织网者尝试将尽可能多的角色困在它的蛛网地形中。然后它移动到近身战的边缘，设法用它的织网延长冒险者们被保持5格远的距离。它只会在被迫至一隅或冒险者们全被定身时进入近身战。
　　利齿守卫利用它的纠缠蛛网定身角色，然后在近身战中攻击他们一边获得伤害加值。作为族群中的护卫，它试图阻拦角色们。它的工作就是用它的蛛网威能控制敌人，组织阿伯瑞恩哨兵造成大量伤害。因此，它喜欢定身更甚于进行近战攻击，除非一个角色已经被定身了。
　　阿伯瑞恩哨兵由于他们的树木面纱能力以隐身开始遭遇。他们依靠伊特怪减速和定身入侵者。一个定身的角色将变成他们攻击的目标，它们在隐形效果下冲入，进行一次攻击，然后使用一个移动动作逃回树林中。如果冒险者追赶哨兵，哨兵会带着他们穿过房间，跳到伊特怪可以减速追赶者并让它们回到隐藏的地方。

Tactics

The creatures in this chamber begin the encounter in hiding. They use the concealment offered by the trees to remain out of sight until they spring their attack. The monsters prefer to strike once the party has entered the ring of trees, so that the watchers can better attack from multiple directions.
  The ettercaps in this room attempt to contain the intruders, allowing the arborean watchers to wreck havoc on the adventurers with their bonus combat advantage damage. Like the satyr in Location 7 (Encounter C2), the ettercaps have allied with the arboreans out of a sense of self-preservation.
  The web spinner tries to catch as many characters in its webbed terrain as possible. It then moves to the edge of the melee, trying to keep 5 squares away from the adventurers as it continues to snipe at them with its web net. It resorts to melee only if it is cornered or if the adventurers are all immobilized.
  The fang guard uses its web tangle to immobilize characters, and then attacks them in melee to gain its bonus damage. As the lone soldier in the group, it tries to hold back characters. Its job is to contain enemies with its web powers, setting up the arborean watchers to do the bulk of the damage. Thus, it prefers to immobilize rather than make melee attacks unless a character is already immobilized.
  The arborean watchers start the encounter invisible, thanks to their arboreal veil ability. They rely on the ettercaps to slow down and immobilize the intruders. An immobilized character becomes the target of their attacks, as they charge in under the effects of invisibility, make an attack, then use a move action to escape back into the trees. If the adventurers pursue the watchers, the watchers lead them on a chase through the chamber, hoping that the ettercaps can slow down the pursuers and allow them a moment to go back into hiding.

区域特征

　　照明：幻术太阳将房间沐浴在强光之中。
　　底座：这个房间内的底座是纯粹的装饰，然而它们依然提供掩蔽和阻碍移动。它们被竖立在这是为了标记此地是神圣之地。它们没有特别的魔力。
　　树：粗壮、翠绿而茂盛的树木为任何站在由一棵树填满的格子的生物提供遮蔽。树干，如同地图标记的一样，做为困难地形并且也提供掩蔽。
　　符文：符文环被阿伯瑞恩灌输了用于耕种的原力魔法。任何亵渎神圣草地的人都将遭受沉重的后果。任何生物，包括阿伯瑞恩和其他怪物，踩在符文上会受到1d10点黯蚀伤害、被推离4格并倒地。阿伯瑞恩精魂树木猛烈的反击任何侵扰着它们神圣休息处的生物。
　　幻影森林：房间的真实尺寸如地图所示。日夜更迭、太阳升入天空或当黑暗归来之时沉落，在这里都是幻术持续的一部分。冒险者们如果发现金字塔的其他区域都是幽闭的，他们可以在这里露营。然而，如果冒险者们尝试探索森林，他或她将撞到墙壁的边缘。在战斗期间，不知情的角色试图穿过墙壁会立即结束他们的移动。这里的生物们可能尝试使用这个去诱骗冒险者们靠近墙壁来获取优势。

Features of the Area

Illumination: The illusory sun bathes the room in bright light.
Plinths: The plinths in this room are purely decorative, though they do provide cover and block movement. They are erected here to mark this place as sacred ground. They hold no special magical powers.
Trees: The trees have thick, lush overgrowth that provides concealment to anyone who stands in a square filled by a tree. The tree trunks, as marked on the map, count as difficult terrain and also provide cover.
Runes: The runic circle is infused with primal magic cultivated by the arboreans. Anyone who violates the sanctity of the meadow suffers grave consequences. Any creature, including arboreans and other monsters, that steps on the runes takes 1d10 necrotic damage, is pushed 4 squares, and is knocked prone. The spirits of the arborean grove react violently to any intrusions on their sacred resting place.
Illusory Forest: The room's true size is as shown on the map. Day and night passes here as part of the ongoing illusion, with the sun rising into the sky and setting as night returns. The adventurers can camp here if they find the other areas of the pyramid claustrophobic. If an adventurer tries to explore the forest, however, he or she bumps into the edge of the wall. During combat, characters who unwittingly try to walk through a wall immediately end their movement. The creatures here might try to use this to their advantage by luring the adventurers close to the walls.

ENCOUNTER C4: TEMPLE OF VERDANT RAGE

Encounter Level 9 ( 2,200 XP )

Setup
Arborean speaker (S)
Cave bear （B）
Arborean plant terror (T)

Location 9: A temple dedicated to the arboreans' strange cult has been erected here under the direction of their leader, a speaker named Camnor. Camnor is a ferocious warrior who fights alongside his pet cave bear and the arborean's living god, the plant terror.

When the adventurers enter this chamber, show the players "View of the Temple" on page 24 of Adventure Book One and read the following:
As you enter this chamber, you see a huge, well-lit room that is obviously a temple of some sort. The floor here is thick, soft loam. Large trees grow in the chamber. At the far end of the room stand a stone altar and several stone monoliths. A pool of water fills the chamber's southeast corner. Near the altar stand three creatures: a strange, plantlike beast, a towering bear, and another of the plant humanoids similar to the others you fought in this section of the pyramid.

战术

　　在这个房间的阿伯瑞恩进行凶猛的防御，因为它们不喜欢投降，它们将这看做是它们部落文化的关键。如果它们没有其他的选择，它们撤退到位置8（遭遇C3）。
　　在这间房间内的植物和宗教首领会奋起反抗入侵者。务必复查以下列出的"区域特征"的效果。
　　卡莫诺，阿伯瑞恩议长，有一些短射程能力，所以它尽力呆在近身战边缘。它用它的灵气伤害冒险者们，只有在它能命中超过一个以上的角色时才会使用阻塞孢子。另外，如果它被冒险者们隔离它也会使用这个攻击。在这种情况下，它尝试眩晕一个冒险者然后逃跑，最好能跑出冲锋攻击的范围之外。
　　除非卡莫诺能玩弄一个重伤的角色否则他避难近身战，如能它移动过去击杀他。否则它使用鼓舞孢子来在战斗中援助它的盟友们。议长的盟友们快步进入夹击形式而没有被借机攻击的危险。
　　卡莫诺与洞熊有紧密的联系。议长会对任何伤害洞熊的角色在攻击骰上获得一个+2的加值。如果洞熊被杀死，卡莫诺在所有攻击上获得这个加值。这个加值持续到遭遇结束。
　　在卡莫诺的命令下，凶暴熊尝试冲过冒险者们直到房间的边缘然后从后面攻击。它尝试和暴怒的植物恐怖夹击，但是它乐于追逐扑击那些缺乏装备易于掠食的冒险者们。它会为它服务的主人战斗至死。
　　植物恐怖使用简单的战术。它暴怒的前进，饥渴的攻击入侵者。它聪明到足够尝试诱惑角色们进入房间，准备一个动作冲锋更甚于将洞熊和卡莫诺甩在后面太远。更重要的是，植物恐怖可以抓住并拔起碑柱和在这里生长的树木。因此它对冒险者们侵入的巨大愤怒，会使它将整个教堂拆开以压碎冒险者们。

Tactics

The arboreans in this room put up a ferocious defense, since they are loath to surrender what they see as the key to their tribal culture. If they have no other choice, they retreat to Location 8 (Encounter C3).
  The plants and religious idols in this chamber rise up against intruders. Be sure to review the effects listed below under "Features of the Area."
  Camnor, the arborean speaker, has several short-range abilities, so he attempts to stay at the edge of the melee. He uses his aura to harm the adventurers, employing choking spores only if it can hit more than one character. Otherwise, he uses that attack if he is isolated by the party. In that case, he tries to daze an adventurer and then run away, preferably escaping beyond the range of a charge attack.
  Camnor avoids melee unless he can engage a bloodied character, at which point he moves in for the kill. Otherwise he uses invigorating spores to aid his allies in the battle. The speaker's allies shift to form flanks without risking opportunity attacks.
  Camnor has a close connection to the cave bear. The speaker gains a +2 bonus to attack rolls against any character who injures the bear. If the bear is slain, Camnor gains this bonus to all attacks. The bonus lasts until the end of the encounter.
  Under Camnor's command, the dire bear attempts to rush past the adventurers along one edge of the room and attack from behind. It tries to flank with the rampaging plant terror, but it gladly chases and pounces upon poorly equipped adventurers who might make easy prey. It fights to the death in the service of its master.
  The plant terror uses simple tactics. It rampages forward, eager to attack the intruders. It is smart enough to try to lure the characters into the room, readying an action to charge rather than rushing forward and leaving the bear and Camnor waiting too far behind. More importantly, the plant terror can grab and uproot the monoliths and trees that grow in this place. So great is its anger at the party's intrusion that it tears apart this temple to crush the adventurers.

区域特征

　　照明：明亮光线。
　　树：被树枝杈覆盖的面积提供遮蔽。树干阻碍移动并为任何站在邻接它位置的生物提供掩蔽。
　　这个房间的树木充斥着邪恶的神术魔法。任何在由树提供掩蔽的格内或邻接这些格的位置开始他或她的回合的角色，受到一次+14vs.AC的攻击。命中，这次攻击造成1d6+3点伤害。树木对入侵者又刺又敲。这个效果在卡莫诺的生命值减少到0或更低时结束。
　　祭坛和碑柱：这些天然的石质物品提供掩蔽并阻碍移动。另外，卡莫诺用堕落的神术魔法浸染了它们。在这里战斗期间，祭坛和碑柱发出一股绿色的灵气。当卡莫诺用一个近程爆发威能时，他可以选择选择效果的中心是它自己或者一个碑柱。另外，邻接祭坛开始其回合的冒险者们缓慢直到他们的回合结束，就好像祭坛周围的草抓住了角色的脚一般。
　　如果植物恐怖使用碑柱作为武器，碑柱被打碎并且绿色灵气立刻消失。卡莫诺不能再使用这个碑柱作为它近程爆发威能的起始格之一。
　　水：水坑的边缘3尺深，其他地方10尺深。无论什么理由进入池塘的角色必须游泳。另外，阿伯瑞恩污秽魔法让这池水讨厌它们的敌人。任何进入水中的PC承受一次+10vs.强韧的攻击。命中，橘色受到5点持续的毒素伤害（豁免结束）。
　　财富：如果冒险者们调查东北的小房间和这个小房间中的土窖、树梢和堆的高高的疏松岩石堆，他们可以发现一面守护者盾牌（英雄级）。这要求10分钟的搜索并通过一个DC21的侦查检定。参看玩家手册上的这个魔法物品的细节。

Features of the Area

Illumination: Brightly lit.
Trees: The area covered by the tree's branches provides concealment. The trunk blocks movement and provides cover to anyone standing adjacent to it.
  The trees in this chamber are infused with evil divine magic. Any character who begins his or her turn adjacent to or in a square covered by a tree is subject to a +14 attack vs. AC. On a hit, this attack deals 1d6 + 3 damage. The trees lunge and batter at intruders. This effect ends if Camnor drops to 0 or fewer hit points.
Altar and Monoliths: These crude stone objects provide cover and block movement. In addition, Camnor imbued them with fell, divine magic. During the battle here, the altar and monoliths glow with a green aura. When Camnor uses a close burst power, he can choose to center the effect on himself or one of the monoliths. In addition, adventurers who begin their turn adjacent to the altar are slowed until the end of their turn, as the grass around the altar grabs at the characters' feet.
  If the plant terror uses a monolith as a weapon, the monolith is smashed and the green aura immediately fades. Camnor can no longer use that monolith as the origin square for one of his close burst powers.
Water: The pool of water is 3 feet deep at its edge squares, 10 feet deep elsewhere. Characters who enter the pool for whatever reason must swim. In addition, the arboreans' foul magic has made the water poisonous to their enemies. Any PC who enters the water receives a +10 attack vs. Fortitude. On a hit, the character takes ongoing 5 poison damage (save ends).
Treasure: If the adventurers search the small room to the northeast, buried amid soil, tree clippings, and loose rocks piled high in this storage space, they can find a guardian shield (heroic tier).
