The Tentacled One
In the center of the room at the end of the corridor there is a round well in the floor with a chain dangling down into the darkness. In one corner is a sturdy iron grating, from which a hideous smell exudes. Opposite is a stone chest with wisps of green vapor curling from its lid. There are no exits from this chamber.
Arcttus says uneasily, "Careful. There have to be more of them somewhere..."

Orc stew? Let's check out the well and chain.

The Tentacled One
Hobgoblins are close relatives of the other green-skinned races, but are quite distinctive in appearance, being taller than goblins, yet not as burly as orcs. They are extremely cowardly and sneaky, much taken with ganging up on their victims in the dark. They are often found in the employ of Chaos dwarves.
Seven hobgoblins ambush you as you enter the room. Arcttus and Anton squeal in fright and manage to retreat into the corridor, where they cower at the edge of the lantern's glow. Throg is helpfully shielding Avorus.

Nothing Special
NO! Throg is supposed to be using him as a shield. Not shielding him. This is all wrong.
I suppose with a lantern in one hand and axe in the other, Throg can't properly use Avorus as a shield, so he'll just kill a bunch of hobgoblins.

Dorgath identifies a Blessed Sword. Only misses on a to-hit roll of 2 or lower. Worth 300 gold.
Dorgath checks the slain hobgoblins, but finds nothing of value.
Avorus: "Big brother, I think."
Arcttus: "We don't know if that was Skrunch!"
Avorus: "It was him. That was the name they called him."
Arcttus: "It was just some orc. They were talking a lot. We couldn't understand most of it."
Avorus: "No. I mean, I don't think so."
Avorus pauses and eventually turns to Dorgath, who is still rifling through bodies.
"Hey, you dwarves are always calling them 'greenskins.' Right? Well, this one wasn't green. The others couldn't get a look at him because it was always so dark after we were brought down here. But I saw him and he was black. He was bigger than the others. He looked different. I think he's their leader."
Arcttus: "Well, we don't know that. You're just guessing."
