Tomb of Ulam-khala

The tomb of an ancient king, who was known as a master with a sword. He was buried together with his collection of swords that were given to him by the demigod Jafar, as well as a mighty wealth. The tomb was discovered by a member of the Twelve swords of Jafar, who barely managed to successfully raid the tomb. With their success, they gained both their name, and their greatest asset: the swords of Jafar.   The tomb has three entrances.

Main

The problem with taking the main entrance is just as expected, it is like rushing headfirst into a brick wall, but if one believes they can take most of the Twelve swords of Jafar, they have little to worry about. The advantage of taking the main entrance is that it has been cleared, meaning it is unlikely to be much resistance after the first hurdle.

Hidden

This path has the advantage of giving less notice to the enemy, but it is not without danger. Although it might be hidden, it has been discovered, and traps are a common theme. There might be a lookout, but it will not be as obviously dangerous as rushing through the front, and will probably give you the surprise.

A rectangular chamber (40x20) that is oddly decorated. The first two-thirds of the room is like a torture chamber with saws and other tools for inflicting pain, as well as manacles and rope to keep something restrained. The rest of the chamber resembles more of a study. A desk stands in front of two shelves of books, and on the opposing side sits a small couch. At the end of the chamber is a metallic door set into the wall, and flanking it on each side are three cube-shaped openings in the walls, in the center is a small dais. Above the door is a bronze plaque inscribed with text.

"Before the end, you face the judge."
"After the second is a secret."
"Misfortune is the first to come."
"At last, one will reach freedom."
"The fourth is suffering."

Steel Crow

From the darkness, a creature is seen. Atop a 3 foot tall pedestal of sandstone, stands a dark bird made of metal, its ruby eyes glistening in the light. On the pedestal you notice writing, it reads: Through the power of others, I shall prevail. I suffer not the biting colds, pulsing venoms, or stinging acids. Neither do I fear the physical realm. I shall remain.

Mine

The mine is an unlikely entrance, having only been discovered recently to lead to the tomb. However, the undead that used to work the mine, now roams it aimlessly, attacking anything that shows its face. This entrance will have less powerful resistance, and fewer traps, but the hordes of undead will prove a challenge as well.
