As you enter the cave some figures begin to lurch toward you from the shadows. Readying your weapon, you wait for them to enter your lantern light. As shamble in closer you catch sight of two gaunt and rotted faces. Their teeth are yellowed with age and the clothes they
wear are ill fitting and torn, hanging off them like the loose flesh on their bones. You must fight them.
2 Zombies: MR 18 each
2 / Zombie Plague: Make a L1SR on CON or you become infected. You lose 1 CON with each new paragraph you enter whilst infected (or each combat round fought) until magically cured. If you die of the plague you become a zombie with a MR equal to your STR.
Make a note on an index card of this creature and the paragraph you were defeated at. The next player to enter that paragraph will encounter this zombie.
If you defeat the zombies you may leave the cavern either through the exit in the north, go to 21 or, you may leave through the southern corridor, go to 10.
