Encounter for Glóin at 3107
It was during the afternoon that he first noticed the small passage leading into the mountain. It was
partially hidden behind some boulders and it was only blind luck that he stumbled onto it. Wondering where
it led, Glóin stepped into the opening and followed the twisting passageway deeper and deeper into the
mountain vastness. Finally, a small light seemed to shine ahead and he slowed his pace. Looking through a
hole in the wall ahead, he held his breath as the chamber beyond held hundreds of pieces of gold and a
further chamber promised untold riches. Creeping forward to the edge of a gigantic stone chamber, he could
see what looked like glowing objects and jewels of all types heaped in glorious piles reaching to the top of
the cave. Worriedly, he stopped to listen, but all he could hear was the sound of a small wind echoing
through the caverns. Nothing was moving but Glóin was undecided on what to do. Should he…
EXPLORE the caverns using whatever stealth he has
GATHER the coins in the outer cavern and leave hurriedly
STEAL as much treasure as he can carry and lug it back up the tunnel
CALL out to see if anyone is present in the cavern
SEEK out any occupants of the cavern and immediately attack
SEARCH the glowing objects in the next room to see if they are ancient artifacts
FLEE
That’s Smaug’s lair.
I don’t know of any good response.
I’ve got a .pdf showing a challenge rank 219 Hoarmurath getting knocked down to 1 health after attempting to SEARCH.
I’ve seen Elrond kill Smaug in a challenge at around challenge rank 310-315, but that wasn’t in the context of this encounter.
Only been here once… Maben was given quite a roasting… <sigh>
Intend on attempting to kill Smaug in my next 2950 game though…
