"Give me a boost, and we'll split it," NAME suggested. His/Her adventuring sister nodded, knitted her fingers, and lifted NAME high enough to pry out the gems. NAME handed over his/her partner's fair share and went on her/his way. 73 XP 24-35 gold	NAME approached, and asked "Hey, shorty. Want some help?"

Immediately complimenting the soldiers on a job well done, NAME introduced himself/herself as a security consultant hired to test the alertness and efficacy of the local constabulary. With hearty handshakes all 'round, NAME returned the "stolen loot" -- minus his/her commission, of course. 88 XP 1-2 gold Amulet of Health +1 /Flaming Halberd	NAME's stammering attempt at an excuse was so lame, the soldiers laughed and ridiculed her/him while they confiscated most of the stolen goods and half-heartedly thumped her/him with their clubs. 7-10 damage 28 XP 7-9 gold

He/She used the portable pulley to lift the slab enough to get at the valuables stashed below. 88 XP 5 gold Stoneskin Potion/Acrobat Boots	NAME figured the only way to get the loot was with some help, so he/she flagged down a passing caravan and enlisted the aid of some burly guards, splitting the take with them. 28 XP ? gold

Success Results	Failure Results
NAME discovered a small tomb carved into the rock face of a barren hill, the entrance to which was secured by a rusted, but still sturdy iron gate. Strength check with a difficulty of 12 (found in Tomb of the Lizard King, encounter #4)
Using his/her WEAPON, NAME broke the gate loose of its frozen hinges and plundered a few coin-filled urns he/she found tucked inside the tomb. 73 XP 24 gold	NAME was unable to break through the gate, but she/he did manage to puncture her/his hand with a particularly pointy bit of it. She/he eventually gave up and went looking for an easier, less tetanus-ridden challenge. 6-12 damage 34 XP
In the pale glow of the moonlight, NAME saw the festering form of a zombie as it slowly shambled toward him/her. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Tomb of the Lizard King, encounter #5) (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #2)
Not wanting to touch the disgusting wretch directly, NAME wiggled the nearest gravestone loose and bashed the zombie with it repeatedly, until it was naught but shattered bones. Just before pressing on, your adventurer noticed something sticking out from the tangle that used to be the zombie's ribcage. 76 XP Elven Cloak +1/Gravespawn Potion/Cloak of Resistance +1	Not wanting to touch the disgusting wretch directly, NAME began running perpendicular to the creature's approach. Not looking where he/she was going, he/she tripped over a gravestone and landed in the mossy ground face first. NAME did not fail to notice the gold piece lying mere inches from his/her nose, and pocketed it before finishing his/her escape. 7 damage 20 XP 1 gold
After burning off thick layers of cobwebs and brushing away a number of moldering bones, NAME uncovered an ornate stone sarcophagus. Surely it must have been holding treasure and other secrets. Strength check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Tomb of the Lizard King, encounter #5)
With a great heave, NAME shoved the heavy lid off the encasement to reveal a desiccated corpse and a few interesting baubles. She/he left the stiff and took the shiny. 99 XP 4-5 gold Alchemist's Fire/Rod of Vulnerability	Despite his/her many valiant attempts, NAME was barely able to budge the lid at all. He/she mustered all his/her strength for one last desperate push, shifting the stone slab just enough to release a horrible stench -- and hundreds of tiny spiders. After squashing the entire swarm, NAME squeezed his/her spider-bitten arm into the sarcophagus and pulled out a few shiny gems. 6 damage 33 XP 9 gold
Rounding a turn in the dungeon, NAME was confronted by a large locked door. Strength check with a difficulty of 11 (found in Tomb of the Lizard King, encounter #6)

Suspicious of the recently used digging tool, NAME examined the nearby grave sites. He/She soon discovered a hastily camouflaged hole in the ground that held a stash of assorted valuables. 82 XP 5 gold Rod of Cursefinding	NAME wandered around the area, looking for recent activity, but didn't notice anything until the smugglers showed up. After a hard-fought battle, NAME killed the smugglers and took the goods they'd stashed in a well-camouflaged hole. 6-12 damage 34 XP 12-17 gold
NAME was carefully making his/her way through the graveyard when he/she came upon a pedestal with a large sapphire resting on top of it. A strange glowing moss covered much of the ground around the pedestal. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 12 (found in Tomb of the Lizard King, encounter #4,5) (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #3)
Recognizing it as a magical moss with deadly spores, NAME used his/her ten foot pole to vault over it to the sapphire. 68 XP 16-22 gold	NAME moved in to investigate, and started choking on the moss's poisonous spores. S/He grabbed the sapphire and ran out of the toxic cloud, but almost too late. His/her lungs were burning, and his/her mind was clouded by the poison. S/He continued on his/her quest, hoping the ill effects would pass with time. 5-6 damage -5 Wisdom for 3 encounters 22 XP 6-8 gold
Exploring an ancient dragonborn catacomb, NAME was surprised by the lack of loot. Usually it would be interred with the skeletal remains lining every nook and cranny of the place. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 13 (found in Tomb of the Lizard King, encounter #4)
NAME noticed a tiefling skull nestled amongst dozens of dragonborn skulls tucked in a niche along one corridor. Shifting the out-of-place cranium, he/she discovered a hidden recess that held the catacomb's treasures. 94 XP 12-13 gold Angelsteel Shield/Leather Armor +1	Not wanting to leave empty handed, NAME loaded her/his pack with a half dozen of the most-intact skulls, figuring she/he could sell them to a college, a collector, or someone with morbid taste in home decor. 28 XP 11-14 gold

Necromancy is bad enough in general, but it takes a special kind of evil to reanimate dogs! NAME corrected the injustice -- with a vengeance.

When the robbers nervously turned to look, NAME took them both down WEAPON TYPE in hand. 90 XP 39-48 gold	NAME tried to look innocent and told the robbers he/she didn't have any coins. The bluff might have worked if he/she hadn't bumped his/her money pouch while gesturing to further suggest his/her poverty. The crossbow bolts slammed into NAME's chest.

As NAME explored a gloomy catacomb, he/she noticed a number of shiny objects reflecting his/her torchlight from behind a dried-up corpse.

Constitution check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #4,6,8,9)
NAME yelped and snatched back his/her hand. Before he/she could use his/her WEAPON for a little payback, the spider scuttled away.

Brandishing his/her WEAPON to ward off further attacks, NAME stumbled backward out of the catacombs and into the fresh air. 6-9 damage -5 Strength for 3 encounters 30 XP

Constitution (Traps) check with a difficulty of 15 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #4,6,7)
NAME squeezed his/her eyes shut, covered his/her mouth, and stumbled out of the noxious cloud. He/She held his/her breath until he/she reached the mist-filled-but-clean air of the surface. 6 damage 90 XP	NAME gasped in surprise and tried to find her way out of the poison mist before running out of breath and being overcome by the fumes. Failing that, NAME collapsed to the floor, giving herself a good bonk on the head in the process. When she woke up, she woozily staggered out of the crypt. 8-11 damage -5 Intelligence for 2 encounters 35 XP

NAME came across an interesting monument with a statue of a tiefling wielding a bow and golden arrow that seemed like someone or something she should remember. Intelligence check with a difficulty of 15 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #4,5,7)
Recalling a little tidbit about how a tiefling ranger roamed the area leaving caches of supplies wherever she went, NAME noticed the statue was taking aim at a large tree at the edge of the graveyard. Poking around the tree, NAME found a moldy leather pouch.' 104 XP 11-13 gold Catstep Boots/Elven Cloak +1/Gauntlets of Ogre Power/Darkleaf Shield	Figuring that whatever it was he/she was trying to remember might have been treasure-related, NAME started digging around the base of the monument. After a few hours of discovering nothing but small rocks and earthworms, he/she pried the gold arrow lose, and continued on his way. 35 XP 14-22 gold

As he/she passed near a forlorn cemetery, an exhausted old man waved NAME over to ask for help covering several newly planted coffins. As NAME grabbed a shovel, the gravedigger explained that they had to get the bodies buried before nightfall -- or the "creatures" would come for them. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 12 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #1,3,6,7,9) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #4,5)
As NAME tamped down the last shovelful of soil, the sun was just dropping behind the horizon. Much relieved, the old gravedigger paid NAME for his/her help, and hurried him/her on his/her way. 88 XP 29-45 gold	NAME worked as hard as he/she could but, by nightfall, there remained a few uncovered graves. When darkness fell, NAME could hear the hungry snarls of unnatural creatures. The old gravedigger dropped his shovel and ran. NAME fought off the ghouls, successfully defending the coffins and the bodies they held. 7-10 damage 28 XP Birchwood Wand/Burglar's Gloves/Dragondaunt Shield/Potion of Fortitude/Potion of Heroism/Potion of Reflexes
NAME discovered a small tomb carved into the rock face of a barren hill, the entrance to which was secured by a rusted, but still sturdy iron gate. Strength check with a difficulty of 12 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #1,2,3,5,6,8,9) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #5)
Using his/her WEAPON, NAME broke the gate loose of its frozen hinges and plundered a few coin-filled urns s/he found tucked inside the tomb. 73 XP 23-34 gold	NAME was unable to break through the gate, but he/she did manage to puncture his/her hand with a particularly pointy bit of it. He/She eventually gave up and went looking for an easier, less tetanus-ridden challenge. 6-11 damage 34 XP
NAME came across a dais bedecked with immense flagstones so perfectly fitted that they offered no way to lift or pry them up to gain access to the burial chamber below. Strength check with a difficulty of 13 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #1,3,4,6,7,8,9) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #5x2)
NAME uprooted a small statue and used it like a pile driver to smash his/her way through the flagstones and into the musty room below. There, he/she found some glittering rewards for her efforts. 76 XP 3-6 gold Acrobat Boots/Black Feather of the Raven Queen/Boots of Sure Footing/Darkleaf Armor/Darkleaf Shield/Elven Cloak +1/Gauntlets of Ogre Power/Leather Armor +1/Spider Potion/Stoneskin Potion	NAME dragged a small masonry stone up onto the dais and tried to bash his/her way through the flagstones. Tired out after just a few attempts, the only thing NAME managed to smash was his/her fingers. 2-5 damage 34 XP
In the pale glow of the moonlight, NAME saw the festering form of a zombie as it slowly shambled toward him/her. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #1,2,3,6) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #4)
Not wanting to touch the disgusting wretch directly, NAME wiggled the nearest gravestone loose and bashed the zombie with it repeatedly, until it was naught but shattered bones. Just before pressing on, your adventurer noticed something sticking out from the tangle that used to be the zombie's ribcage. 76 XP Catstep Boots/Cloak of Resistance +1/Leather Armor +1	Not wanting to touch the disgusting wretch directly, NAME began running perpendicular to the creature's approach. Not looking where he/she was going, he/she tripped over a gravestone and landed in the mossy ground face first. NAME did not fail to notice the gold piece lying mere inches from his/her nose, and pocketed it before finishing his/her escape. 5-11 damage 20 XP 1 gold
After burning off thick layers of cobwebs and brushing away a number of moldering bones, NAME uncovered an ornate stone sarcophagus. Surely it must have been holding treasure and other secrets. Strength check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #2,3,6,8) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #5)
With a great heave, NAME shoved the heavy lid off the encasement to reveal a desiccated corpse and a few interesting baubles. He/she left the stiff and took the shiny. 99 XP 3-6 gold Addergrease Leather/Angelsteel Shield/Belt of Vigor/Bracers of Rejuvenation/Elven Cloak +1/Leather Armor +1/Scale Armor	Despite his/her many valiant attempts, NAME was barely able to budge the lid at all. He/She mustered all his/her strength for one last desperate push, shifting the stone slab just enough to release a horrible stench -- and hundreds of tiny spiders. After squashing the entire swarm, NAME squeezed his/her spider-bitten arm into the sarcophagus and pulled out a few shiny gems. 6-12 Damage 33 XP 9-14 gold
Already a little spooked by his/her surroundings, NAME nearly jumped out of his/her skin when a feral-looking hound padded in front of him/her and howled. When s/he noticed the pack of wild-eyed mongrels charging toward him/her, NAME knew it was time to leave. Strength check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #5,9)
Running blindly through the graveyard, NAME barely saw the wide trench of a mass grave yawning before him/her in time. Without breaking stride, s/he leaped over the obstacle, leaving the pack of dogs behind to sniff at the contents of the pit. 90 XP	Dodging around headstones, NAME headed straight for an open mass grave, making a stunning leap halfway across, and a spectacular plummet into it. The stench was terrible, but the corpse-laden pit distracted the wild dogs long enough for NAME to hobble away, only a little worse for wear. 8-11 damage 30 XP
NAME was inside an old crematory sifting through knee-deep ash and bone when some of the skeletons arose and clawed him/her. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #7,8,9)
NAME shoved the skeletons aside and tossed a few partially melted trinkets in his/her pack. He/She then searched around the bottom edge of the chimney for a handhold. Just as the skeletons caught up to him/her, NAME hauled him/herself up and began the long climb to safety. 3-6 damage 90 XP 8-12 gold Acrobat Boots/Black Feather of the Raven Queen/Cloak of Survival +1/Darkleaf Shield/Eladrin Chain/Flaming Halberd/Stoneskin Potion/Feywild Crown	NAME was able to take refuge in the furnace's soot-filled chimney, but didn't have the muscle to climb out. So he/she waited until the skeletons settled back into their dusty hiding places before dropping down and quickly getting out of there. 7-11 damage 28 XP
While collecting bits of loot from inside a small tomb, NAME became distracted by the unnerving moaning and shuffling sounds of zombies outside the entrance. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #5,7)
NAME quickly slammed the tomb's sturdy door and braced himself/herself against it, summoning all his/her might to hold it shut. When the relentless pounding of the undead finally stopped, NAME grabbed his/her treasure, flung open the door, and sprinted out into the sunrise. 90 XP 5-7 gold Black Feather of the Raven Queen/Force Staff	With great effort, NAME pushed the tomb's door back into place and leaned against it until his/her strength gave out. As the undead battered down the door, NAME crawled through the opening and scrambled out of the graveyard, suffering some nasty claw wounds along the way. 8-11 damage 32 XP
NAME discovered a secret panel in a stone plinth that revealed a deep chamber below. It appeared to hold a few shiny baubles worth collecting. He tied off a rope and shimmied into the dank chamber. Strength check with a difficulty of 13 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #9)
After finding enough treasure to make the dangerous decent worthwhile -- but not so much he/she couldn't climb out again -- NAME hauled himself/herself up the rope.* 90 XP 39 gold Iron Staff	On NAME's way back up the rope snapped under the weight of the newly acquired loot. The force of the ground hitting NAME's back knocked the wind out of him/her. Once he/she regained his/her breath he/she began calling for help. After several several hours, two helpful bandits dragged NAME back to the surface -- in exchange for some his/her new-found treasure. 7-13 damage 40 XP 25 Gold

NAME was carefully making his/her way through the graveyard when he/she came upon a pedestal with a large sapphire resting on top of it. A strange glowing moss covered much of the ground around the pedestal. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 12 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #1,2,4) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #4)
Recognizing it as a magical moss with deadly spores, NAME used his/her ten foot pole to vault over it to the sapphire. 68 XP 17-24 gold	NAME moved in to investigate, and started choking on the moss's poisonous spores. He/She grabbed the sapphire and ran out of the toxic cloud, but almost too late. His/Her lungs were burning, and his/her mind was clouded by the poison. He/She continued on his quest, hoping the ill effects would pass with time. 5-10 damage -5 Wisdom for 3 encounters 22 XP 5-8 gold
Wandering past a long-undisturbed graveyard, overgrown with weeds and choked with sticks, leaves, and other wind-blown debris, NAME noticed a shovel caked with fresh dirt. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 12 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #1,2,3,8) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #4,5)
Suspicious of the recently used digging tool, NAME examined the nearby grave sites. He soon discovered a hastily camouflaged hole in the ground that held a stash of assorted valuables. 82 XP 5-8 gold Acrobat Boots/Addergrease Leather/Dwarven Chain/Elven Cloak +1/Flaming Halberd/Stoneskin Potion/Sun Disk of Pelor/Darkleaf Shield/Wand of Drakes	NAME wandered around the area, looking for recent activity, but didn't notice anything until the smugglers showed up. After a hard-fought battle, NAME killed the smugglers and took the goods they'd stashed in a well-camouflaged hole. 6-11 damage 34 XP 13-18 gold
Exploring an ancient dragonborn catacomb, NAME was surprised by the lack of loot. Usually it would be interred with the skeletal remains lining every nook and cranny of the place. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 13 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #1,3,7,8,9) (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #4,5)
NAME noticed a tiefling skull nestled amongst dozens of dragonborn skulls tucked in a niche along one corridor. Shifting the out-of-place cranium, he/she discovered a hidden recess that held the catacomb's treasures. 94 XP 11-18 gold Addergrease Leather/Alchemist's Fire/Catstep Boots/Darkleaf Shield/Dragondaunt Shield/Dwarven Scale/Elven Cloak +1/Flaming Halberd/Gauntlets of Ogre Power/Scale Armor/Stoneskin Potion/Watchful Spirit Totem	Not wanting to leave empty handed, NAME loaded her/his pack with a half dozen of the most-intact skulls, figuring she/he could sell them to a college, a collector, or someone with morbid taste in home decor. 28 XP 9-15 gold
NAME came across a couple sets of fresh footprints heading down into a recently disturbed crypt. Getting a good grip on his/her WEAPON TYPE, NAME cautiously entered the crypt, following the tracks. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 15 (found in The Haunted Streets of Agamentar, encounter #4,7)
The footprints were harder to follow around the crypt's twists and turns, but NAME stayed on the trail. When the tracks ended in a room featuring a pair of orcs that seemed to have been mostly eaten by a pack of ghouls, NAME decided he'd/she'd followed them far enough. Grabbing a few small pouches of coins from the orcs' corpses, NAME got out of there before the ghouls smelled him/her. 93 XP 6-7 gold Black Iron Scale/Cloak of Survival +1/Flaming Rapier/Periapt of Wisdom +1/Potion of Burnshield	The crypt was dark, and the footprints left in dust on the floor seemed to have been disturbed recently. When NAME lost the trail at an intersection, he thought about trying to pick it up again, but reconsidered when the stench of ghoul wafted by. 31 XP
(rare) The translucent figure of a child wandered the graveyard in silence. It fixed its unearthly gaze upon NAME and slowly floated toward him/her.
Wisdom (Undead) check with a difficulty of 13 (found in Tomb of Terror, encounter #4)
NAME followed the ghostly figure to a crypt which had obviously been disturbed. NAME took the time to return the scattered bones to their tomb, and the ghost disappeared. As it did so, it indicated a small box of valuables that it wanted NAME to have . . . probably wanted NAME to have, anyway. 72 XP 21-23 gold Acrobat Boots/Staff of the Iron Tower'/Magic Whetstone'	NAME waved his WEAPONTYPE frantically at the ghost, but it had no effect. The ghost, clearly angered, touched NAME once, chilling him to the bone, and then disappeared. 6 damage 30 XP 20 Gold

The wererat snarled through yellowed teeth and stabbed at NAME with its notched short sword. NAME avoided the vicious attack and ATTACKED the vile creature, staggering it. Pressing the attack, NAME made quick work of the lycanthrope. 104 XP 48 gold	Backing away from NAME, the wererat dodged around headstones and inflicted several small cuts and gashes on NAME, who failed to connect with his/her WEAPON TYPE.

Immediately complimenting the soldiers on a job well done, NAME introduced himself as a security consultant hired to test the alertness and efficacy of the local constabulary.

NAME strode up to the filthy vultures, WEAPON in hand, and explained that they could cut him/her in on a share of the take or join the people in the hole, forfeiting it all. The graverobbers nervously agreed and NAME got out of there before they realized they had numbers on their side. 74 XP 6-8 gold Darkleaf Armor/Eladrin Chain/Force Staff/Spider Potion	NAME stomped up to the graverobbers and tried to look menacing as he demanded they hand over the loot -- or else. The dirty men took one look at her/him and decided "or else," shoving NAME into the deep foul-smelling pit. 9-13 damage 28 XP

Charisma check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4,5) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #5,7,8)
Remarking on the noble bearing of the good lady knight, NAME remarked that the fallen paladin must have bravely met her/his end, valiantly serving the cause of her/his order. The noblewoman looked up at NAME, smiled, and got up to leave. As she did, she pressed a small pouch into NAME's hand, whispering that her daughter/son would've wanted her to give this to her/him. 90 XP Ring of Freedom of Movement	"So, how?d [sic] he/she die?" NAME bluntly asked the noblewoman, who looked up, blinking away her tears in bewilderment. She looked back at the monument and broke down again, sobbing loudly enough to draw the attention of her bodyguard who encouraged NAME to move along . . . with his fists. 8-10 damage 30 XP
While passing through the graveyard, NAME was surprised by a pair of thugs who'd been hiding behind a couple large monuments. The robbers aimed crossbows at NAME and told him/her to hand over his/her gold. Charisma check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4,5) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #7,8)
NAME nodded in agreement, reaching for his/her money pouch. Then, with jaw dropped, he/she stared wide-eyed past the thieves and shouted in his/her most terrified-sounding voice, "The Ghost!" When the robbers nervously turned to look, NAME took them both down WEAPONTYPE in hand. 90 XP 34-47 gold	NAME tried to look innocent and told the robbers he/she didn't have any coins. The bluff might have worked if he/she hadn't bumped his/her money pouch while gesturing to further suggest his/her poverty. The crossbow bolts slammed into NAME's chest. He/She survived and took down both robbers as they struggled to reload. 10-11 damage 28 XP 16-22 gold
Drawn by clanging and thumping coming from the graveyard, NAME approached cautiously and spotted a half-dozen young elves defacing several buildings and monuments.

NAME strode up and sternly advised the hooligans to stop what they were doing and go home. They seemed ready to test NAME's resolve, until he/she rested his hand comfortably on his/her WEAPON TYPE. As the miscreants tromped back into the forest, the graveyard's caretaker emerged from hiding and thanked NAME, insisting he/she take a small pouch of valuables. 93 XP 9-10 gold Eladrin Chain/Periapt of Wisdom +1/Flaming Rapier/Winter's Grasp Totem	NAME shouted at the vandals, drawing their attention away from the monuments and toward him/herself. NAME's attempt to bully the hooligans only made them more aggressive. Amid a hail of rocks, NAME left the graveyard before things got ugly. 12 damage 31 XP
Fervent cries of "Die, vampire spawn!" drew NAME over to a mass grave, where he/she discovered a wild-eyed man plunging a sharpened shovel handle into the lifeless, lime-covered bodies. NAME approached with caution. Charisma check with a difficulty of 15 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #8)
Waving his/her WEAPON around and in a suitably arcane fashion and intoning assorted anti-vampire phrases, NAME convinced the unstable gravedigger that the undead threat had been put to rest. Satisfied, the much-calmed man set about filling in the grave, leaving NAME to continue on his/her way. 95 XP 43-66 gold	NAME hopped down and attempted to calm the clearly unstable gravedigger, who immediately jabbed her/him in the chest, shouting "Take that, bloodsucker!" Not wanting to slay an innocent, but also disliking being struck with a gardening tool, NAME clambered out of the grave and bolted. 12 damage 33 XP

As NAME explored a gloomy catacomb, he/she noticed a number of shiny objects reflecting his/her torchlight from behind a dried-up corpse.

Constitution check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #5) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #5,7,8)
NAME yelped and snatched back his/her hand. Before he/she could use his/her WEAPON for a little payback, the spider scuttled away. While the bite on NAME's hand was a little red, it wasn't bad enough to keep him/her from collecting a few loose coins from the spider's nest. 4-6 damage 90 XP 43-61 gold	Almost immediately, NAME's hand went numb and his/her vision became blurry.

Atop a many-stepped dais, NAME discovered an ancient altar, its pictogram-carved surface stained with ancient sacrifice and age. Wondering if the thick slab still held any secrets or power, he/she wracked his brain for any hint of how to find it. Intelligence check with a difficulty of 15 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #6)
NAME recalled a strange cult from ages ago that required high priests to sacrifice their left thumb to their god to symbolize their reliance on the god's hand in their lives. Looking over the pictograms, NAME notice one that resembled a four-fingered hand. Pressing in the rune popped open a secret panel underneath, revealing a few valuable donations to the NAME fund. 95 XP 6-7 gold Elixir of Will/Eye of Ioun	While NAME squeezed his/her brain as hard as he/she could, not a single pictogram made any sense to him/her whatsoever. Trying to salvage what he/she could, he/she made a rubbing of the strange drawings, hoping they might be translatable -- or sellable. 33 XP 25 gold
NAME came across an interesting monument with a statue tiefling wielding a bow and golden arrow that seemed like someone or something he should remember. Intelligence check with a difficulty of 15 (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #5,8)
Recalling a little tidbit about how a tiefling ranger roamed the area leaving caches of supplies wherever she went, NAME noticed the statue was taking aim at a large tree at the edge of the graveyard. Poking around the tree, NAME found a moldy leather pouch. 104 XP 11-18 gold Cloak of Resistance +1/Scale Armor/Wavestrider Boots	Figuring that whatever it was he/she was trying to remember might have been treasure-related, NAME started digging around the base of the monument. After a few hours of discovering nothing but small rocks and earthworms, he/she pried the gold arrow lose, and continued on his/her way. 35 XP 15-18 gold

As he passed near a forlorn cemetery, an exhausted old man waved NAME over to ask for help covering several newly planted coffins. As NAME grabbed a shovel, the gravedigger explained that they had to get the bodies buried before nightfall -- or the "creatures" would come for them. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 12 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #5) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #5,6,8)
As NAME tamped down the last shovelful of soil, the sun was just dropping behind the horizon. Much relieved, the old gravedigger paid NAME for his/her help, and hurried him/her on his/her way. 88 XP 33-43 gold	NAME worked as hard as he could but, by nightfall, there remained a few uncovered graves. When darkness fell, NAME could hear the hungry snarls of unnatural creatures. The old gravedigger dropped his shovel and ran. NAME fought off the ghouls, successfully defending the coffins and the bodies they held. 6 damage 28 XP Battleaxe/Potion of Glibness
NAME discovered a small tomb carved into the rock face of a barren hill, the entrance to which was secured by a rusted, but still sturdy iron gate. Strength check with a difficulty of 12 (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #5)
Using her WEAPON, NAME broke the gate loose of its frozen hinges and plundered a few coin-filled urns she/he found tucked inside the tomb. 73 XP 25 gold	NAME was unable to break through the gate, but he/she did manage to puncture his/her hand with a particularly pointy bit of it. He/she eventually gave up and went looking for an easier, less tetanus-ridden challenge. 7 damage 34 XP
NAME came across a dais bedecked with immense flagstones so perfectly fitted that they offered no way to lift or pry them up to gain access to the burial chamber below. Strength check with a difficulty of 13 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4,5) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #6)
NAME uprooted a small statue and used it like a pile driver to smash her/his way through the flagstones and into the musty room below. There, she/he found some glittering rewards for her/his efforts. 76 XP 4-6 gold Black Feather of the Raven Queen/Darkleaf Shield/Periapt of Wisdom +1/Wavestrider Boots/Hypnotic Bracers	FAIL TEXT
In the pale glow of the moonlight, NAME saw the festering form of a zombie as it slowly shambled toward him/her. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #5)
Not wanting to touch the disgusting wretch directly, NAME wiggled the nearest gravestone loose and bashed the zombie with it repeatedly, until it was naught but shattered bones. Just before pressing on, your adventurer noticed something sticking out from the tangle that used to be the zombie's ribcage. 76 XP Gravespawn Potion	Not wanting to touch the disgusting wretch directly, NAME began running perpendicular to the creature's approach. Not looking where he/she was going, he/she tripped over a gravestone and landed in the mossy ground face first. NAME did not fail to notice the gold piece lying mere inches from his/her nose, and pocketed it before finishing his/her escape. ? damage 20 XP ? gold

Shouting through the loose seal of the giant boulder covering the entrance, NAME worked to cooperate with the adventurer trapped on the other side. Strength check with a difficulty of 14 (found in ADVENTURE, encounter #XX)
NAME heaved against the boulder with all his/her might. The immense stone shifted just enough for the trapped adventurer to squeeze through. Holding on just a little longer, NAME enabled the adventurer to retrieve her sack of treasure, half of which she gratefully offered NAME. 80 XP 6 gold Berserker Greataxe	Straining every muscle in her/his body, NAME pushed and pushed against the boulder with no effect (other than wrenching her/his shoulder). NAME apologized to the still-trapped adventurer, wishing him/her luck in finding another way out. 10 damage 27 XP
Already a little spooked by his/her surroundings, NAME nearly jumped out of his/her skin when a feral-looking hound padded in front of him/her and howled. When he/she noticed the pack of wild-eyed mongrels charging toward him/her, NAME knew it was time to leave. Strength check with a difficulty of 14 (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #6,7,8)
Running blindly through the graveyard, NAME barely saw the wide trench of a mass grave yawning before him/her in time. Without breaking stride, he/she leaped over the obstacle, leaving the pack of dogs behind to sniff at the contents of the pit. 90 XP	Dodging around headstones, NAME headed straight for an open mass grave, making a stunning leap halfway across, and a spectacular plummet into it. The stench was terrible, but the corpse-laden pit distracted the wild dogs long enough for NAME to hobble away, only a little worse for wear. 9 Damage 30 XP
NAME was inside an old crematory sifting through knee-deep ash and bone when some of the skeletons arose and clawed him/her. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #5,6,7)
NAME shoved the skeletons aside and tossed a few partially melted trinkets in his/her pack. He/She then searched around the bottom edge of the chimney for a handhold. Just as the skeletons caught up to him/her, NAME hauled him/herself up and began the long climb to safety. 3-5 damage 90 XP 7-11 gold Darkleaf Armor/Darkleaf Shield/Orb of Far Seeing/Rod of Vulnerability	NAME was able to take refuge in the furnace's soot-filled chimney, but didn't have the muscle to climb out. So he/she waited until the skeletons settled back into their dusty hiding places before dropping down and quickly getting out of there. 7-13 damage 28 XP
While collecting bits of loot from inside a small tomb, NAME became distracted by the unnerving moaning and shuffling sounds of zombies outside the entrance. Strength (Undead) check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #5) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #6,7)
NAME quickly slammed the tomb's sturdy door and braced him/herself against it, summoning all his/her might to hold it shut. When the relentless pounding of the undead finally stopped, NAME grabbed his/her treasure, flung open the door, and sprinted out into the sunrise. 90 XP 5-8 gold Force Staff/Hypnotic Bracers/Orb of Far Seeing/Periapt of Wisdom +1/Spider Potion	With great effort, NAME pushed the tomb's door back into place and leaned against it until his/her strength gave out. As the undead battered down the door, NAME crawled through the opening and scrambled out of the graveyard, suffering some nasty claw wounds along the way. 10 damage 32 XP
After burning off thick layers of cobwebs and brushing away a number of moldering bones, NAME uncovered an ornate stone sarcophagus. Surely it must have been holding treasure and other secrets. Strength check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #6,8)
With a great heave, NAME shoved the heavy lid off the encasement to reveal a desiccated corpse and a few interesting baubles. He/She left the stiff and took the shiny. 99 XP 4-5 gold Flaming Rapier/Stoneskin Potion/Wand of Magic Missile	Despite his/her many valiant attempts, NAME was barely able to budge the lid at all. He/she mustered all his/her strength for one last desperate push, shifting the stone slab just enough to release a horrible stench -- and hundreds of tiny spiders. After squashing the entire swarm, NAME squeezed his/her spider-bitten arm into the sarcophagus and pulled out a few shiny gems. 7 damage 33 XP 11 gold
(Rare) NAME discovered a secret panel in a stone plinth that revealed a deep chamber below. It appeared to hold a few shiny baubles worth collecting. He/she tied off a rope and shimmied into the dank chamber.

After finding enough treasure to make the dangerous decent worthwhile -- but not so much he/she couldn't climb out again -- NAME hauled himself/herself up the rope. 90 XP 30 gold Periapt of Wisdom +1	On NAME's way back up the rope snapped under the weight of the newly acquired loot. The force of the ground hitting NAME's back knocked the wind out of him/her. Once he/she regained his/her breath he/she began calling for help. After several several hours, two helpful bandits dragged NAME back to the surface -- in exchange for some his/her new-found treasure. 11 damage 40 XP 20 gold

Wisdom check with a difficulty of 12 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #5) (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #6)
Suspicious of the recently used digging tool, 'NAME examined the nearby grave sites. S/He soon discovered a hastily camouflaged hole in the ground that held a stash of assorted valuables. 82 XP 8 gold Darkleaf Shield	NAME wandered around the area, looking for recent activity, but didn't notice anything until the smugglers showed up. After a hard-fought battle, NAME killed the smugglers and took the goods they'd stashed in a well-camouflaged hole. 7-11 damage 34 XP 13-15 gold
Exploring an ancient dragonborn catacomb, NAME was surprised by the lack of loot. Usually it would be interred with the skeletal remains lining every nook and cranny of the place. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 13 (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #4)

Shifting the out-of-place cranium, he/she discovered a hidden recess that held the catacomb's treasures. 94 XP 12-16 gold Acrobat Boots /Plate Armor	Not wanting to leave empty handed, NAME loaded his/her pack with a half dozen of the most-intact skulls, figuring he/she could sell them to a college, a collector, or someone with morbid taste in home decor. 28 XP 9 gold
NAME came across a couple sets of fresh footprints heading down into a recently disturbed crypt. Getting a good grip on his/her WEAPONTYPE, NAME cautiously entered the crypt, following the tracks. Wisdom check with a difficulty of 15 (found in The Vampire of Fallcrest, encounter #7) (found in Mystery of the Moaning Mine, encounter #5)
The footprints were harder to follow around the crypt's twists and turns, but NAME stayed on the trail. When the tracks ended in a room featuring a pair of orcs that seemed to have been mostly eaten by a pack of ghouls, NAME decided he/she'd followed them far enough. Grabbing a few small pouches of coins from the orcs' corpses, NAME got out of there before the ghouls smelled him/her. 93 XP 5-6 gold Berserker Greataxe/Defender Longsword/Force Staff/Spider Potion	The crypt was dark, and the footprints left in dust on the floor seemed to have been disturbed recently.

NAME strode up to the filthy vultures, WEAPON in hand, and explained that they could cut him/her in on a share of the take or join the people in the hole, forfeiting it all. The graverobbers nervously agreed and NAME got out of there before they realized they had numbers on their side. 74 XP 6-9 gold Darkleaf Shield/Flaming Halberd/Gauntlets of Ogre Power/Leather Armor +1/Orb of Far Seeing/Staff of the Iron Tower/	NAME stomped up to the graverobbers and tried to look menacing as he/she demanded they hand over the loot -- or else.

Drawn by clanging and thumping coming from the graveyard, NAME approached cautiously and spotted a half-dozen young elves defacing several buildings and monuments. Charisma check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Sleeper in the Tomb of Dreams, encounter #1,3)
NAME strode up and sternly advised the hooligans to stop what they were doing and go home. They seemed ready to test NAME's resolve, until s/he rested his/her hand comfortably on his/her WEAPON. As the miscreants tromped back into the forest, the graveyard's caretaker emerged from hiding and thanked NAME, insisting he/she take a small pouch of valuables. 93 XP 6-11 gold Darkleaf Armor/Defender Longsword /Heavy Shield +1/Hypnotic Bracers	NAME shouted at the vandals, drawing their attention away from the monuments and toward him/herself.

While passing through the graveyard, NAME was surprised by a pair of thugs who'd been hiding behind a couple large monuments. The robbers aimed crossbows at NAME and told her/him to hand over her/his gold. Charisma check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Sleeper in the Tomb of Dreams, encounter #1,2,3)
NAME nodded in agreement, reaching for his/her money pouch. Then, with jaw dropped, he/she stared wide-eyed past the thieves and shouted in his/her most terrified-sounding voice, "The Ghost!" When the robbers nervously turned to look, NAME took them both down WEAPON TYPE in hand. 90 XP 30-48 gold	NAME tried to look innocent and told the robbers he/she didn't have any coins. The bluff might have worked if he/she hadn't bumped his/her money pouch while gesturing to further suggest his/her poverty. The crossbow bolts slammed into NAME's chest. He/She survived and took down both robbers as they struggled to reload. 10-13 damage 28 XP 13-22 gold
NAME noticed a weeping noblewoman sitting on a bench across from a small tomb that featured a relief carving of a handsome paladin in repose.

As she did, she pressed a small pouch into NAME's hand, whispering that her son would've wanted her to give this to him/her. 90 XP Ring of Freedom of Movement	"So, how'd he die?" NAME bluntly asked the noblewoman, who looked up, blinking away her tears in bewilderment. She looked back at the monument and broke down again, sobbing loudly enough to draw the attention of her bodyguard who encouraged NAME to move along . . . with his fists. 7-12 damage 30 XP

Waving his/her WEAPON around and in a suitably arcane fashion and intoning assorted anti-vampire phrases, NAME convinced the unstable gravedigger that the undead threat had been put to rest. Satisfied, the much-calmed man set about filling in the grave, leaving NAME to continue on his/her way. 95 XP 50-68(max) gold	NAME hopped down and attempted to calm the clearly unstable gravedigger, who immediately jabbed him/her in the chest, shouting "Take that, bloodsucker!"

As NAME explored a gloomy catacomb, he/she noticed a number of shiny objects reflecting his/her torchlight from behind a dried-up corpse.

Constitution check with a difficulty of 14 (found in Sleeper in the Tomb of Dreams, encounter #1,2,3,4)
NAME yelped and snatched back his/her hand. Before he/she could use his/her WEAPON TYPE for a little payback, the spider scuttled away. While the bite on NAME's hand was a little red, it wasn't bad enough to keep him/her from collecting a few loose coins from the spider's nest. 2-6(max) damage 90 XP 38-62(max) gold	Almost immediately, NAME's hand went numb and her/his vision became blurry. Brandishing her/his WEAPON TYPE to ward off further attacks, NAME stumbled backward out of the catacombs and into the fresh air. 8-9 damage -5 Strength for 3 encounters 30 XP
Inside a dank crypt, NAME came across a curious-looking sarcophagus chiseled into the stone wall.

As NAME hiked over an unremarkable hillock on the border of the graveyard, he noticed a putrid odor. Pausing to get a sense of the cause of the stench, NAME realized it was coming from underfoot.
