2. The Ogre

The first thing you see when you enter this large room is a kind of chair or throne made of stones that have fallen from the walls of this very keep. It's a big chair, and it needs to be, as it's occupied by an ogre. Check for surprise. If the ogre is surprised, tell the players that he seems to be asleep (he is). If he is not surprised: He seems to be asleep, but then his eyes open. "Rah, visitors!" he exclaims, standing up and grabbing a huge club. "Give me treasure or I take your lives!" This ogre, Gorfang, is motivated by greed; he'll accept any treasure that "looks good" meaning that he might choose a prize of 1,000 cp over 200 sp, but he will always choose gold over anything else. He claims to know "all about" the dungeon inhabitants, but in fact he really knows just three things: 1. His neighbors are goblins (as found in areas 8 through 12).
