Level 11
A seething knot of filth and vermin bound by a sacred link to Kabriri. The decay roils to life when the living draw near, swarming over them in a frenzy of biting jaws.

Trigger A creature moves into the room beyond the northern stairs
Effect A combination of biting flies and ravenous creepy-crawlies swarm the triggering creature. The creature takes 6d6 piercing damage (DC 30 basic Reflex save). If the creature took any damage, it's automatically exposed to ghast fever, but the save DC against this strain of the disease is DC 30. The hazard then rolls initiative.
Reset The hazard settles back down 1 round after all creatures leave the room and can trigger again at the start of the next round.
