Fenthaza's Quarters
Two type 2 yuan-ti malisons stand guard in the corridor outside this room. Combat in the hallway alerts the yuan-ti broodguards in the Sacrificial Chamber, which arrive in 1 round. The room can be described as follows:
The stone urn stands 4 feet tall and weighs 250 pounds. Its stone lid weighs 25 pounds. Trapped within the urn is an air elemental that obeys Fenthaza. If the urn’s lid is removed by someone other than Fenthaza, the elemental flies out and attacks. Fenthazauses the elemental to hunt down and slay escaped prisoners. Once it has completed its task, the elemental always returns to its mistress. Treasure
Fenthazacarries a ring of keys that unlock the manacles and shackles worn by the prisoners in the Prisoner Pits. She wears a holy symbol of Dendar the Night Serpent (25 gp) around her neck. The chest is unlocked and contains 200 gp, a black leather quiver embroidered with a quartz-studded star map (75 gp), and a ceremonial dagger in a gold scabbard embossed with a scene of stampeding jungle animals (25 gp). Navigation
The Hallway to the South of Fenthaza's Qaurters leads to the Main Gate to the west, and the Sacrificial Chamber to the East.
A haze of incense lingers inside the chamber. Faded murals decorate the walls, and throw rugs and cushions lie scattered on the floor. An engraved chest rests in one corner next to a stone urn covered with snake carvings. A creature with the head and upper body of a dark-skinned woman and the lower body of a serpent coils in the middle of the room.
Fenthaza, a yuan-ti nightmare speaker, lairs here. If an alarm is raised, Fenthaza relies on her guards to protect her while she releases the creature trapped in the stone urn. Fenthaza tries to incapacitate interlopers and confine them to the Prisoner Pits. A particularly irksome foe might be shackled to the altar in the Sacrificial Chamber where she can torture it at her leisure.
One of the more powerful figures in the temple, Fenthaza ruled the yuan-ti after their abomination leader died, and she performed the ritual that transformed Ras Nsi into a malison. Recently, her visions have led her to doubt Ras Nsi’s capabilities. In turn, Ras Nsi has started to cede power to his champion, Sekelok.
