19. Secret Hallway

This flagstone-lined hallway can be accessed from rooms 17, 20 and 23, as well as from the stairs behind the secret door between rooms 8 and 9 on the first level. It is guarded by 4 giant bombardier beetles; 50% of the time they will be at the other end (opposite or away from the door the characters enter through); the remainder of the time, they will be 10-60 feet away (1d6 x 10). The passageway is thick with dust. A careful check will reveal that the dust has been disturbed recently by a large animal of some sort. There are many scrapes and scratches in the dust. 25 4 Giant Bombardier Beetles: AC 16, HD 2*, #At 1 bite, 1 spray, Dam 1d6 bite, 2d6 spray (cone 10' wide by 10' long from rear of monster, save vs. Death Ray for half damage), Mv 40', Sv F2, ML 8, XP 100 ea.
