THE TOMB OF KING STROHM III

On Level 2 of the Windspear Hills Dungeon you will meet Samia at 9. She claims to be part of a scientific expedition looking for the tomb of King Strohm III. Do offer to help locating the tomb! Samia gives you Samia's Key which allows you to open the door to the north and enter the labyrinth.

  1. Open the door to the north and enter the labyrinth. From here on, beware of false doors. Any door without "Fog of War" behind it is a trap!

  2. Go to 10 and kill the Ghast there. Search the boxes for the Book of King Strohm III, a Scroll of Wizard Eye, and a Stone to Flesh Scroll.

    The book tells you that in order to locate the tomb, you will have to assemble the Death Mask of King Strohm. The mask has been split into six parts, each of which is guarded by a Guardian.

  3. The first Guardian – a Genie – is in the room at 11. Enter, kill him, and loot the body for the first part of King Strohm's death mask.

    Each Guardian Genie goes momentarily invisible and releases a Sunfire spell if given the chance, so protection from fire or keeping weaker party members at a distance may be a good idea.

  4. If you feel like it, you can enter the room at 12 and kill The Director, a Beholder-like creature, for 10,000 XP.

  5. The next four Guardians are at 13, 14, 15, and 16. Kill each of them for their pieces of the death mask.

  6. The last Guardian is at 17. Kill him. When you grab the last piece of the mask, the Death Mask of King Strohm III automatically assembles. The party receives 24,550 XP.

  7. Before going to 18, one of your party members must wear the Death Mask of King Strohm as a helmet. This will allow you to see the final Guardian of the tomb; a Fire Elemental. Kill it for 10,000 XP.

  8. Now go to 19 where you will find the tomb of King Strohm III. Loot it for the Dragon Scale Shield +2 and the Long Sword Dragonslayer +2.

  9. Now prepare for battle in close quarters...

  10. Go back to 18 where you will find Samia and the rest of her "scientific expedition". Surprise, surprise ... their intentions are not very scientific, or very peaceful. So kill them all. Make sure to loot the bodies for 5 Potions of Extra Healing, Studded Leather Armor +2, Medium Shield +1, Plate Mail +1, a Wand of Fear, and an Oil of Speed, plus various minor treasure.

Which concludes this little side quest in the Windspear Hills dungeon.
