It is not illegal to worship Naveh in the Thardic Republic, but it is publicly frowned upon. The cult of Navehian worshipers meets every 10th day beneath the Bath House for services and animal sacrifices. It has five devout followers and one priest who are all hidden in and amounts the township of Fobin.

The town does not fully know of this small sect's presence, but the local legionnaires are begining to suspect that either a chapter of the Lia-K'avir or a Navehian temple must be in the area. The Navehians do not directly associate with the Black Market operations in town, but they know of their activities.

  1. The Entry

    2. These rickety wooden circular stairs lead down from the north-western corner of the Bath House (area 6). The floor is a dark stone, and somewhat uneven. Opposite the stairwell is a stove that is always lit to help keep the cellar dry. The small area holds a few nick nacks, empty boxes and a little dust. The wall to the north of the stairwell is made of rough stone.

    To open the secret door one has to push on the two stones that are in the direct middle of the wall. If only one of the two is pushed a trap from the south wall slides open and a poison dart (10points 75ML to hit) fires. There are 10 darts stored here, so the trap will respring with each failed attempt to open the door.

  2. The Temple

    3. The walls and floor here are adorned with mysterious symbols and sygils that denote Navehian worship. The walls are painted a blood red, and the ceiling is black from candle smoke. The shelves are covered with a rich velvet tapestry that depicts the Navehian destruction story. Additional candles, knives and sharpening stones each have their own shelf and corner in the shelves either side of the room. The shelves are divided into three columns where robes, knives and other personal oddities of the religion are stored.

    In the center of the room is a six foot long table with an indentation into the wood six inches deep. The indentation resembles the outline of a full grown man. At waist level there is a small drain that allows liquids to flow down into the alter. Inside the alter, below the drain, is a large black bowl. At either end of the alter is a solid oak cutting block. Many knives have left their mark here. Hair and skin can be found embedded in the blocks.

    To go back to the stairs, the same two blocks must be pushed. If they are not pushed simultaneously another trap opens and a crossbow bolt is fired across the room into the back of the person pushing the stones (10points, 85ML to hit.)

    To get into the office there is a circle with three triangles painted on it. The triangles must be pushed in one at a time, in a certain order. If the PCs look around they will see the order is mapped out on the pentagram on the floor. The topmost triangle is number 1. The left and the rightmost are number 2 and the bottom two are numbered 3. The numbers are depicted by vertical bars (I for 1, II for 2, III for 3.) If the PCs fail to notice this, and try just pushing any combination, a small clay vial of liquid will fall from above and quickly fill the room with a sleeping gas. If inhaled it will put everyone in the room for 5d6-END turns to sleep. (Resist = 4d6 vs END, -1 end / round).

  3. The Office

    4. This area is divided into a desk, with three stools, and bed and chest. The desk has no drawers, and atop it sits an ink pot, a few pens and a black-leather bound book. The book is locked (lockcraft:78%). If opened it is written backwards (right to left instead of left to right) in lakeese and denotes the true story of the BarrowWright and their intentions to raid Sharley's general store. The book also speaks of killing Lothar (a Legionair), but gives no motive.
