them against the PCs, waiting for the most
dramatic moment to reveal that they have
apparently gone over to Vestra’s side.
The DM should also remember that the opponents
with purple eyes have been charmed
by Vestra, and are not really responsible for
their actions. PCs of good alignment should
probably be warned of this before they go
hacking away at anyone who attacks.
1. Foyer
This is just a square room with four doors.
Small heaps of rubbish lie in the southeast
and northeast corners, looking like they were
hastily and halfheartedly swept into piles. The
orcs assume their chief knows what he is doing
by letting this human woman and her followers
into their warren, but are not pleased
by her orders to tidy the place up.
The west door is standing open, and leads to
the secret door used for the ambush.
2. Ogre Barracks
Animal furs and carcasses are scattered
throughout this room, and several stone
spears are propped against the walls. ?tyo
ogres are asleep when the PCs enter, but the
slightest noise will awaken them instantly. If
there was no ambush in the entryway, there
will be four ogres here.

Examination of the carcasses will show that
they are the remains of cattle, probably some
of those reported missing in the recent raids.
3. Frozen Storage
This room is Vestra’s idea of a combination
meat locker and home-away-from-home. The
walls, floor, and ceiling are covered with a
thick layer of ice and frost, although it is difficult
to see the walls because of all of the slabs
of meat hanging from hooks. The source of the
cold is a vicious winter wolf that Vestra keeps
as a pet. One of the first things that Vestra
does when she recruits someone is bring them
to this room so that the wolf can learn their
scent. Anyone who enters the room that the
wolf does not recognize will be attacked immediately.

4. Orc Barracks
This room contains twelve crude wooden
cots, a crooked table and several mismatched
chairs, and a few odd bits of broken furniture
that might once have been recognizable. The
walls are decorated with obscene paintings
and obnoxious slogans (which must have been
written for the orcs by the humans).
Scattered about the room are items that obviously
were stolen from caravans: large bolts
of ornate fabrics (now stained and torn), assorted
copper and silver pieces, and fur pelts.
The DM may add specific items if he wishes,
but there should be nothing of true value in
the orcs’ quarters.
There are twelve orcs in the barracks, gambling,
drinking and carrying on. At first, they
will ignore the PCs, assuming that they work
for Vestra (otherwise, what would they be doing
there?). If the PCs act casually, they might
even get the orcs to tell them a bit about Vestra’s
organization and plans. As soon as the
PCs slip up or start acting suspicious, however,
the orcs realize that they are being had
and attack.
Frustrated by having to get along with the
humans in Vestra’s troop, the orcs relish the
opportunity to finally kill someone other than
helpless women and oldsters. During the ensuing
melee, they try to smashchairs over the
PCs heads, hurl ill-shaped crockery at them,
and generally fight in a barroom-brawl-like
fashion.
Most likely, fighting the orcs will alert the
rest of the complex to the PCs’ presence (if it is
not already known). A fight will certainly
bring the orc chieftain running from his private
quarters (see below). After this fight, it
will be a matter of minutes before Joran shows
up with his men.

5. Orc Chieftain
Unbelievable, but the decorations in the
chiefs quarters are even more disgusting than
those in the orc barracks. A rickety wooden
