15. The Hive

As the adventurers approach the door to this room, read the following: From the door ahead comes a faint humming sound; it becomes more of a buzzing when you get closer. The door is distorted by age and humidity, and hangs partly open. If any character has the nerve to look into the room (opening the door or just peering around the door), read this: Giant bees! You've heard of them, but they are larger than you expected... and they are moving toward you menacingly... The room is lined with a huge lattice of hexagonal wax cells; a giant honeycomb, of course. Most of the cells (85%) contain giant bee honey, while the remainder contain giant bee larva. There is no "royal jelly" here. Upon noticing the adventurers the giant bees will become agitated, attacking on sight and pursuing enemies as far as 60' in any direction. 6 Giant Bees: AC 13, HD ½* (1d4 HP), #At 1 sting, Dam 1d4 + poison, Mv 10' Fly 50', Sv F1, ML 9, XP 13 ea.
