Continuing the Adventure
If the party does not manage to defeat the wolves, they will all be slaughtered and devoured by morning, like most of
Timothy's previous passengers. However, given the poor health of most of the pack, the wolves will flee after half their
number have been slain. The pack leader will also retreat after being wounded for more than 15 hit points of damage. Once
his primary allies have fled, Timothy will make an assessment of the heroes' current ability to withstand his attacks. If the
party spellcasters are still active, he will flee with the rest of the pack - not because he fears for his life (because of his
regeneration) - but because he does not want to endanger his disguise. He will return to where he was supposedly sleeping,
assume human form, and will, still naked, climb the nearest tree, and quickly heal any battle wounds using his regeneration.
After the sounds of battle have died down, he will call out for aide. He thanks the heroes for "saving" him, and apologizes
for the danger - in all his years, he claims he has never been attacked by a pack of wolves. Of course, he adds
conspiratorially, this is the first time he has traveled with a Vistana. Timothy will insist on sleeping in his cabin for the rest
of the night, which passes uneventfully. In the morning, the Virago will pull away from the Purse and sail to Karina before
noon.
The Dungeon Master should keep careful note of any heroes who were bitten by Timothy during the battle. For each point of
damage Timothy inflicts on a hero, there is a 2% chance the character will contract lycanthropy.
