Room 16 — Makeshift Kitchen (Ogre Cook)

This is a makeshift kitchen, with stockpiles of food provisions. An impressively fat ogre, apparently the corsairs’ cook, is stirring a large cauldron over a fireplace. He keeps a large cleaver and a rolling-pin handy.

Ogre cook, level 5 boss, 6 life points. Each hit from the ogre chef inflicts 2 life points of damage. If a fight occurs, at the start of the battle, the ogre cook will attempt to throw the contents of the cauldron. All characters must save versus level 3 scalding hot soup or lose 1 life point. Barbarians save at +1.

Reactions: 1 bribe (50 gp), 2-3 fight, 4-6 fight to the death.

Treasure: The ogre cook carries 3d6 gold pieces. In the food storage area you find one potion of healing.

Upon defeating the ogre cook, the party gains one xp roll.
