The Reptile Pit
Eons ago, the ancient Order of High-Knights devised a testing area for the bravest of their ranks and sited it in the lowest level of the Oakvael dungeon. The Reptile Pit is the result of their efforts. The ancient Knights created perhaps the greatest test of bravery and fighting ability and filled it with some of the most formidable opponents one could hope to meet. Two Knights administer the pit, Clwyd, who guards the entrance barring admission to all but Knights and Gorfwylltra who stands in the innermost point of the pit. Between these, two lie numerous obstacles and powerful creatures. The obstacles include walls of magical concussion, which confuse adventurers by convincing them that they are under attack by their fellows.
Having survived the concussion spells, would-be heroes will encounter a series of nasty creatures. The most famous of which is, Wendy, the red Whirlwind Dragon. Apart from the Dragon there are also several Minotaur, Stalkers, large Serpents, Concussion Spectres and perhaps worst of all, up to four Wyrms each considered to be as dangerous as a small Dragon. Any Knight who can complete this journey and present Gorfwylltra with further evidence of courage (in the form of a Golden Knight’s Halberd) will be rewarded with extra health.
