The Brigands of Wrong

t was a spontaneous decision of the three pirates to pay the dungeon Wrong a visit. On their search for gold and adventure many dungeons still were unexplored. They anchored in the bay east of Minoc and when they entered the dark cave they noticed that they had forgotten nightsight potions. Hook and Hawkeye had one potion each, but that was it. The area around the entrance was guarded by some lizardmen, whose bodies were soon piling up in the cave. The three pirates continued to protrude deeper into the dungeon. In the left and right wings they found the prison cells, which seemed to be inhabited by numerous evil brigands, who attacked the adventurers on sight. Thanks to a good parrying skill they were also quickly defeated.

A teleporter lead them down to the lower chambers, where death awaited them: Amongst the brigands evil mages cast dangerous spells at them, and it took some time and many bandages to clear the area around the entrance teleporter. When they headed north, they met other warriors and already saw some human corpses lying on the ground. They found out the reason for that faster than they wanted: A brigand with a big axe was heading towards them, and he walked with very quick steps, so it was almost impossible to escape. With one blow of the brigand's axe the new sailor who had accompanied Hook and Pike collapsed on the ground. Hawkeye was severely wounded, and Hook was hardly able to apply the bandages fast enough to keep him alive. It was a tough combat and the brigand carried around 700 gold pieces with him.
Traveller, take one good advise: Never go there alone, and always take enough people with you who are able to resurrect! These dangerous brigands sometimes team up with mages, and even if you are a company of two this would mean a quick death!

After slaying a few of these axe fighters the pirates entered the teleporter which once lead down to a hidden labyrinth. But, the labyrinth had vanished. Nobody was able to pick locks, and so they left the big treasure room without touching one of the chests.
They had spent quite some time in the dungeon, and their eyes hurt due to a lack of nightsight potions. Fortunately they had found a torch, or they would have been completely blind down there. Their bags were full of gold coins, and exhausted but satisfied they left the dungeon to accustom their eyes to the daylight.
