IotWW: 14. Private Room

Purpose / Function

  • This place houses a strange pair—a hulking fighter, Kobort by name, and his associate, a small and thin fellow called Turuko, a Bakluni from unknown parts.
  • Their plan is to waylay and rob adventurers returning from a successful expedition to the ruined moat house, for he knows that there are monsters and treasure there.
  • The pair will try to accompany a small party, hang back during fights, and then slay the characters when they are weakened.
  • Kobort was passing through when he fell in with the monk. Turuko convinced the huge fellow that he could make them wealthy and famous.
  • The monk believes himself to be highly clever. They will otherwise spy on a large group, and attack only if it is reduced by deaths and wounds.

Valuables

They currently have only 40 cp, 5 sp, and 12 gp between them. 'Something must be done soon!' says Turuko.

Defenses

  • Kobort carries a longsword and dagger, and keeps his lance, flail, and battle axe in the stables with his heavy warhorse.
  • Turuko keeps his two daggers and quarterstaff handy at all times.
