a wooden plank stretching towards a heavily laden barge, [Map Room #6], Lich# 29393, go wooden plank

Unpredictable Outcomes, Barge

[Unpredictable Outcomes, Barge - 29409]
Small mountains of what can only be termed debris litter the surface of this barge, each collection more random than the last. Multicolored bits of fabric are interspersed with bits and baubles of every imaginable shape and size. At the center of the chaos, you can see a ramshackle shop, its somewhat symmetrical shape making it stand out against the chaos around it.

Unpredictable Outcomes, Shop

[Unpredictable Outcomes, Shop - 29410]
It's difficult to grasp the full size of this dilapidated shop from the inside. Towering stacks of ephemera create narrow passageways through this treasure trove of novelties. Dim lighting casts the dusty stacks in a macabre light, concealing more than it reveals. An inexplicable display is prominently featured in the cramped space, dominating one entire wall. The claustrophobic path winds its way towards a shadowy doorway.

In the wide-mouthed basket you see: a stuffed eyeball, a misshapen stuffed snake, an inverted stuffed baby doll, a grinning stuffed kitten, some macabre bone dice, a four-sided die, a six-sided die, a pair of ten-sided dice, a ten-sided die, a twelve-sided die and a twenty-sided die.

a stuffed eyeball Weight: <1 pound
examine
Examine:
This eyeball is roughly the size of a child's head and startling in its realism. The eyelids are barely visible, with thick cloth eyelashes that are splayed out like spider legs. The unblinking pupil stares out in permanent surprise... or perhaps judgement.

a misshapen stuffed snake Weight: <1 pound
examine
Examine:
The top half of this toy is clearly identifiable as a snake. However, about halfway down it becomes much harder to distinguish. The main body splits into various-sized swathes of fabric which bear more than a passing resemblance to tentacles, save for the brightly colored shoes at the end of each one.

an inverted stuffed baby doll Weight: <1 pound
examine
Examine:
While the general shape of this doll is clearly identifiable as a chubby infant, it quickly becomes apparent that a great deal of craftsmanship went into depicting the youngster as having been turned inside out. There's no particular seam or mark to indicate the point at which the represented inversion may have been affected, but the musculature and organs are on clear display, rendered in three fuzzy dimensions.

a grinning stuffed kitten Weight: <1 pound
examine
Examine:
This toy kitten would be perfectly adorable, save for its grin, which is actually wider than its tiny feline head, extending into the adjoining space. The grin itself sports oversized fangs and a plethora of sharklike teeth. The lips surrounding this display of deadly enamel are cracked and scarred as if they have seen a great deal of intense usage. Above the grin, disproportionally small, are an adorable pair of innocent kitten eyes.
10,000
some macabre bone dice Weight: <1 pound
examine
Examine:
These dice are formed of realistic-looking bone, down to the striations and yellowed edges that one would expect from a set of heavily used cubes of real bone. They have a variety of stains across them, each one a variation on a coppery hue.

a four-sided die Weight: <1 pound 15,000
a six-sided die Weight: <1 pound 15,000
a pair of ten-sided dice Weight: <1 pound 15,000
a ten-sided die Weight: <1 pound 15,000
a twelve-sided die Weight: <1 pound 15,000
a twenty-sided die Weight: <1 pound 15,000

Unpredictable Outcomes, Aviary

[Unpredictable Outcomes, Aviary - 29411]
A panoply of unusual and eclectic items are stacked high against the walls of this gloomy room. A wan light casts a feeble, flickering glow over dusty wares, leaving several heavy shadows mostly undisturbed. The center of the room is dominated by a hulking wrought iron birdcage that stands within a wide circle notably free of debris. An ornate sign at the base of the cage proudly proclaims, "The Aviary," elegantly etched in Common.
