A Baboon Den (#7/30, #311/365)
"You have strayed into enemy territory. This canyon of jagged crags and spires is home to a troop of vicious baboons, who are angered by your presence! They begin hurling rocks and stones in your direction, hooting with anger and defiance."
Contents: The Baboons will attack any Heroes venturing into the canyon, hurling rocks mainly, but also defending themselves if attacked. They will flee screaming if over half their number are slain.
At the end of the canyon is a small fresh-water spring, and a large thicket of Firebush (see The Titan Herbal, p. 32). Behind the thicket is a shallow cave containing the Baboon Chief's treasure: a leather sack with 2-12SP, a Diamond (worth 50GP), and half a bottle of Red Wine (rough but ready flavour, restores 1-3 STAMINA points, drinking the bottle in one sitting causes the reduction of -1 to Attack Strength for an hour).
At the back of the cave is a tunnel leading further into Mount Gulugu.
Stats:
3-18 BABOONS, SKILL 6 STAMINA 6, Rock or Large Bite
