The large double door to the the next room is triple locks (needing three separate rolls to open) and each lock is trapped with a fatal poison. Getting past these will take an expert thief.
This large circular room is the goal of your quest. This is the crypt of Darlessa, the Vampire Queen.
Her sarcophagus is located in the middle of this room. A combined strength of 35 is needed to lift of the stone lid. Once open the PCs will have one round to attack her before she is revived. They have +2 on their initiative rolls.
The Vampire Queen is dead but far from helpless. She is shocked you made it this far, but she is prepared all the same.
