The Necro Cave on the outskirts of Goldvale is two things, 1) the lair home of Phil the necromancer and 2) (an) entry to the underdark. It starts off parodying some Monty Python by having a large bridge anyone must cross to get into the proper caves, with long falls unto the unknown below lining the bridge. A charismatic undead named Kim asks anyone wanting to cross improvised questions whenever they arrive in an obnoxious manner, and then gets out of their way if they answer truthfully1). To leave the place, the same questions are asked by Kim again2).
The main zone in the Necro Cave, located just past the bridge scenario, is a series of interconnected tunnels3). It contains a randomly selected, ever changing probably, collection of Phil's undead minions patrolling. One tunnel terminates at a large rock, and getting past the rock would get someone to the underdark4). A carved stone area on the map presents as the entry way to Phil's front door which has a “Home Sweet Home” sign above it. This is a locked metal door for game purposes. There is also a side tunnel nearby that leads to a storage closet sized room that it technically “Kim's Room”, where Kim has whatever valuables he's collected at the time & can set up magical traps. Any side tunnels depicted on maps can be penned in with dry erase ink to connect them and close up this area, excluding whatever is behind the rock to the underdark zone of course.
At a game session on 2026-01-13 the first encounter included the contents listed below. As minifigures, maps, notes and whatever else tend to get lost, shuffled or confused between game sessions this is just a friendly reminder of what was for an evening.
