10. Main Temple

Home of the dragon, built into a cliff face. The ornately-decorated entrances are 30 feet high and the ceiling inside is 40 feet high. The main area (#10a) features a set of stairs on the west side which lead 15 feet up to the main platform where the main statue is featured (#10b) and where the dragon usually curls around its treasure. The GM might give the dragon fewer hit die and hit points (as provided in the Basic Fantasy RPG Core Rules) for a weaker and less clever party of adventurers, reducing the treasure as well. Mountain Dragon (Red Dragon): Age Cat: 4, AC 21, HD 10** (+9), #At 2 claws, 1 bite or breath, 1 tail, Dam 1d8 claw, 4d8 bite or Cone of Fire 90' x 45' 4d8 breath, 1d8 tail, Mv 30' Fly 80' (20'), Sv F10, ML 8, XP 1,480 Dragon's Treasure: 4,100 cp, 39,000 sp, 10,000 gp, 15 gems (10x100 gp, 3x500 gp, 2x1,000 gp), 2 pieces of jewelry (bracelet worth 1,900 gp and knife worth 1,800 gp), short bow +1, and dagger +1. A pair of gaudy silver-wrapped platinum bracers is also in the treasure (they will radiate magic if detect magic is used). If worn, they increase the wearer's Dexterity score by 1 point, unless the wearer has already reached their maximum (usually 18).
