Now it is well known that mages employ all sorts of creatures as guardians for their lairs or most treasured possessions and what more fitting to guard the Amber Eye than the Amber Guardian. Garthunk as a master craftsman in addition to being a powerful mage and so it should be no surprise that his guardian be something else he created.
So let’s sit down, grab a coffee and roll into tonight’s encounter!

Now tonight’s encounter night will be free from the main stat-blocks but I will mention a few others that can take place earlier. Below we have the, pretty cool looking Amber Guardian – a creature that defends the lake and vault – but they also hold a key as the eye of the creature is the key for the lock to open the gate. Only those worthy of the eye were thought to be able to defeat this almighty construct.
The other creatures that we may encounter range from woodland beasts, giant-boars, brown bears and the like to other more maliciously inclined creatures.
The more malicious ones come from my normal stat blocks – but my recommendation is to mix it up with shifting the intent of the creature a bit or simply adding an ability that the creature normally wouldn’t have.
The humanoid combatants would be there to try and take the key and research from Borfook. This isn’t a huge issue as our party will be strong enough for these ‘seemingly random encounters’ but its something to consider when balancing out the encounter.
A quick one tonight but not the least in the slightest! Don’t forget to come back over the weekend for additional content and lastly, as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
