The Black Citadel

You evoke your Spell of Phantom and you notice your skin takes on a ghostly sheen. You stretch out your right hand and it passes right through the stone. You step into the door and you see nothing for a moment as you take a step forward. On the other side of the door your eyes focus again as you enter the lair of the wilderbeast.

You grab your sword hilt and look around. It seems like you're in a natural cave; there is a natural light coming in from some fifteen feet above you through the roof of the cave. The cave smells foul, there is something definitely residing here. On the floor of the cave there are about half a dozen skeletons wearing identical rusty iron helms and body armour. Perhaps there was a great battle here long ago and the wilderbeast slayed all six of these unfortunate souls. You shudder to think how strong this beast is.

As you walk further into the lair you begin to hear a low growl. From behind a boulder in front of you the wilderbeast first sniffs the air and then turns around to look at you. It looks like a hairy mountain troll, except that its teeth have sharpened ends and its skin looks as hard as stone. It's holding a massive weapon, a stone hammer, which could crush all the bones in you body with one blow. You feel dwarven in comparison to this thing. The wilderbeast lets out a roar, which makes the cave tremble, and it begins walking quickly towards you. Get ready for battle; you'll be needing some powerful magic right about now.
