11 - Herbalist

You meet a wandering herbalist who is in the forest to pick rare plants. She carries d6 bunches of wolvesbane and she can sell them to you for 5 gp per bunch. The woman also warns you that there are hungry wolves in the forest. These are not normal wolves: the orcs of this area have a special affinity with them and breed them to wreak havoc in the woods. Occasionally, the larger wolves are taken as pets or mounts for smaller orcs or orclings. Write the WOLVES keyword on your party sheet. This encounter is unique. Cross it off the list once you have played it. If you roll this again, treat as an encounter with d6+2 wolves. Wolves, level 3 minions; reactions: 1 flee, 2-3 bribe with food (only if you have dried meat found in this adventure), 4-6 fight. Wolves are afraid of fire and must make a morale roll if at least two wolves are killed with a Fireball spell. If the same Fireball also causes the wolves to fall under 50% of their number, they will have to pass TWO morale rolls. There are a total of 30 wolves in the forest. Keep a tally of how many you kill. Once 30 wolves have been slain in total, ignore this encounter.
