6. Chief's Room

The strong, shrewd leader of the orcs resides here, sitting on a large, heavily-built throne when judging court. The sub-room to the south contains a bed and other personal furniture. His pets are also here: a mountain lion and two wolves. The tawny cat wears a collar with gems (100 gp value for the gems) that is connected to a strong steel chain. The chain is usually attached to a steel hoop on the base of the throne; the chain can be released quickly. The wolves wear ordinary heavy leather collars, and are usually chained to the wall beside the door. Usually there are four orcs: two are here on permanent duty and two more to serve as messengers and go-fers. The chief has the key to the west temple door (see room #9).

A stoppered flask in a padded jar contains a Potion of Passwall – which replicates the effect of the 5th-level Magic-User spell of that name when poured onto an appropriate surface.
