The iron-bound doors open into barracks. Suits of banded armor stand in the corners of the room; shields, scimitars, and curved glaives hang from racks on the walls. Sleeping mats are arrayed throughout.
This chamber is home to the Mánistales, the sacred eunuchs that ward over the temple. There are twenty mats crammed into the quarters, nearly covering the floor.
There are fifteen scimitars, ten glaives, fifteen shields, nine steel helms, and four suits of banded mail in the chamber, though the banded mail is sized for the enormous eunuchs and only fits the largest of PCs.
The eunuchs have foresworn all material wealth, but Potiphar, captain of the Mánistales, keeps a hoop of pearl prayer beads in a simple wooden case hidden in his sleeping mat. The pearl beads are worn smooth with use, and imbued with the wickedness of seventeen generations of devotees. The prayer beads are worth 250 gp and bestow a bonus to spell checks when carried by a chaotic cleric or wizard. If sacrificed by a lawful or neutral cleric, the beads offset 500 gp worth of penalties.
