INTRODUCTION
This is the 24th in an ongoing series aimed to
provide the overworked DM with ready-to run
encounters. The PCs face off against the divided
corpses of the dividuicorporis.
It includes a history/background for the
encounter, a map, and monster stats.
The companion ZIP file contains JPEG versions of
the maps (with and without grid), a Hero Lab file, the
Word file of the encounter, and a PDF with character
sheets for all the monsters.
HISTORY/BACKGROUND
The Ironpick clan of dwarves rose to fortune and
prominence by following the dogma and dictates of
their deity, Therl. While almost as greedy as
Abbathor, Therl takes a much more organized
approach to his evil. He commands that his
worshippers live within a strict hierarchy built upon
economic class. This is known as the Doctrine of
Wealth. Because the lower classes are so much
worse off and the upper classes so well off,
worshipers are obsessed with increasing their
wealth and are willing to do almost anything to this
end.
Knowing that utter selfishness would destroy any
society, Therl also imposes upon his followers the
Doctrine of Social Debt: his followers are forbidden
from acting in ways that would destroy their society
and each member must have at least some chance of
accumulating wealth. Therl also forbids theft,
narrowly defined, between his worshippers.
For centuries the Ironpick clan balanced these two
requirements: their elites acted to concentrate
wealth in their hands but were careful to allow the
underclasses enough opportunity to keep them from
rebelling. The clan thus rose to prominence and
eventually used their wealth to create their own city,
Theroria, within the stone of Mount Gelida. While
cold and harsh, Gelida contained great mineral and
metal wealth, including diamonds.
For decades the lower classes of the Ironpick clan
toiled away within the mountain, mining gold and
diamonds for the upper classes and society stayed
stable. The status quo endured until the arrival of an
MFE#24 2
agent of Durakor, a demon lord of the undead, posing
as the dwarf Hubren.
At first, Hubren offered the Ironpick elites his
knowledge of improved mining and smelting
techniques. Once he had gained their trust and
determined their weaknesses, he offered them a
replacement for their labor force: zombie miners.
The elites had considered using zombies as miners,
but they did not have enough priests and clerics to
animate and control a viable undead labor force.
Hubren solved their problem by providing task
masters who could control large numbers of zombies.
While a few of the mining elites opposed the idea,
they soon met with unfortunate (but plausible)
accidents and the zombies were deployed.
Realizing they no longer needed to pay the
underclasses to mine, the elites stopped doing so.
The miners then appealed to Lady Morellena, the
leader of the clan. Unfortunately for them, she was
profiting handsomely from the zombie labor force.
When the miners tried to start mining on their own,
warriors were sent to stop them, and dwarven blood
was shed.
Realizing that the social order was being
threatened, the High Priest Herrel took up the cause
of the miners and beseeched the Lady Morellena to
send the zombies and Hubren away. The Lady
Morellena wavered, for she respected the wisdom of
her husband Herrel. Seeing this, Hubren persuaded
another priest, Relleg, to arrange a fatal mining
accident for Herrel.
Upon learning of the death of Herrel, the miners
rose up and civil war erupted within the city. Since
the underclasses had the greater number, the matter
would have been settled quickly but for the
intervention of Hubren—he brought powerful
undead into the fight on the side of the elite.
Therl sent warnings in the form of visions to Relleg,
but Relleg had been seduced by the wealth and
power offered by Durakor and ignored these
warnings. So the war raged on.
When the undead and elites eventually won the
civil war, they set about converting their prisoners
into undead miners and Relleg turned the temples of
Therl into temples of Durakor.

Therl responded with the Frostcurse. This curse
plunged the mountain into perpetual winter,
transformed the diamonds the undead mined into ice,
and turned the dwarves into frozen corpses. Durakor
intervened on behalf of his followers, transforming
them into frozen undead. Whatever his other flaws,
Durakor’s devotion to his faithful is a thing of legend.
The few living dwarves who escaped the civil war
brought word of these events to other dwarves. When
they learned that the city was now haunted with
undead, several dwarven clans contributed funds to
build guard posts to watch the mountain. Fortunately,
the frozen undead could not endure long outside of
the freezing cold and proved vulnerable to fire. They
also proved little inclined to leave their cursed city—
the elite continued to direct their undead miners to
add to their ever-increasing but utterly useless
wealth.
While the curse transformed the mined diamonds
into ice, the vast wealth of a dwarven city remains
within the mountain, tempting adventurers and the
Ironpick survivors.
After fleeing their fallen city, the living Ironpicks
started preparing their return. They toiled in the
mines of other dwarves, fought as mercenaries and
adventured to accrue the wealth needed to train and
equip a force suitable to retake the city. One fateful
day, the Ironpick leaders believed they had
assembled such a force and set out to reclaim their
city. It turned out that they had miscalculated—the
undead proved far stronger than they imagined, and
the attacking force was defeated, though not without
great cost to the Frostcursed.
As would be expected, later intrusions into the
cursed city were not limited to dwarves. Adventures
occasionally tried their luck in the frozen corridors
and various monstrous invaders entered the city
intentionally or by accident. While some adventurers
escaped with modest wealth and dark tales, most
intruders fell to the guardians of the city.
Neither dwarves nor followers of Durakor tend to
be wasteful, so the Frostcursed made evil use of
those that fell into their cold hands. Durakor
encourages his followers to emulate his creation of
undead and one way to win favor in his eyes is to
create a new type of undead. The Frostcursed
MFE#24 3
Necrocrafters are renowned for their devotion and
they have spent their undeaths attempting to create
new horrors to honor their master. One such
creation is the dividuicorporis.
Having learned of undead capable of splitting their
bodies, such as the Penanggalan, the Necrocrafters
set out to do one (or three) better: they
developed the means to split a living
creature into three undead horrors. The
oozing flesh is made of the creatures’
muscles, organs and entrails. The waling
bones are made, obviously enough, from the
bones of the creature. The skin is made into
a wriggling skin. Durakor was pleased with
the creation, praising his Necrocrafters for
creating three undead from the body of one
living creature. As such, the Necrocrafters
of the Frostcursed are eager to create
more of them while continuing to research
new types of undead.
GETTING THE PCS
INVOLVED
There are a variety of ways to get the
PCs involved in the encounter. One option
is to have the PCs wander into the
cursed city, the classic random
encounter.
Another option is for the PCs to be in the area for
a reason. This could be because they were hired by
dwarves to scout the city or because they are
investigating the tales of the lost wealth of this
cursed city. This encounter can easily be tied in with
the other Mike’s Free Encounters involving the
Frostcursed (see Free Stuff!, below).
MAP KEY
The encounter takes place within a Necrocrafter
workshop in the fallen city of the Frostcursed.
The encounter area is illuminated with
strategically placed continual flame items. The
vaulted ceilings are 20 feet above the stone floors.
The stone doors (each door is AC 17 HP 18) are

locked (DC 15 Dexterity (Thieves’ Tools)). Like other
areas of the city, the workshop area is cold, and the
surfaces coated with frost.
1. Corridor: The corridor to workshop.
2. Main Workshop: The workshop of the
Necrocrafters. The chamber contains seven wooden
tables holding corpses and other items used in
experiments. There is a normal well in the chamber;
it is a leftover from when the city was alive. The two
green areas are pools of necrotic ooze.
Significant contact with the ooze inflicts 1d6
necrotic damage each round. If removed
from the pool, it degrades into foul sludge
in a matter of hours unless properly
preserved in a suitable container. Set in the
floor of the chamber are three empty pools;
they are used in the creation of undead.
There is also a statue of Durakor in the
chamber; each eye is a 100 gp emerald with
continual flame (a green flame) cast on it.
Durakor is carved as an undead dragon-like
humanoid. One hand reaches out in an offer of
friendship, the other is ready to tear apart those
who dare refuse this offer.
3. Workroom: This
room contains six
tables loaded with
equipment suitable for necromantic research and
experimentation. There are 13 necrotic ooze urns in
the workshop. The room is stocked with various raw
materials for research and experimentation; these
would be worth about 1,500 gp to a necromancer.
4. Corridor: A corridor.
5. Servants’ Quarters: The quarters for the servants
of the Necrocrafters. There are six rough cots and six
footlockers. Each locker holds 1d100 cp, 1d20 sp
and 1d6 gp.
6. Assistants’ Quarters: The quarters for the
Necrocrafter assistants. There are three beds, a
bookshelf with tomes on necromancy, a table and

bathroom contains a tub of ice and a toilet.
ENCOUNTER
The encounter will begin when the PCs enter the
workshop or do something to get the attention of the
inhabitants.
The standard encounter consists of:
• 3 sets of the dividuicorporis (in area #2).
• 3 Necrocrafter Assistants (ln areas #2 and
#3).
• 6 Servants (located in areas #2, #3, and #7).
• 1 Necrocrafter (located in area #8).
The encounter can be adjusted by adding more
monsters or decreasing their number.

Description: Created from the organs, muscles and entrails
of a corpse, the oozing flesh is often mistaken as some sort
of mundane ooze monster—at least until a DC 10 Wisdom
(Medicine) check reveals its true composition. The oozing
flesh retains the basic senses of the original creature, the eyes
flopping about at the end of the optic nerves. The oozing
flesh drips with digestive acid and is infused with necrotic
energy, contacting the creature rather painful. An oozing flesh
retains the languages it knew in life as well as some of its
memories and personality traits. It also retains a connection
to its bones and skin.

The Necrocrafter prefers to let its minions bear the brunt of
melee combat but will engage in combat using its spells. It is
willing to take prisoners for experimentation; but is also fine
with getting new corpses to work with. It does try to minimize
the structural damage done to intruders, wanting to have
intact subjects to work with.
