About this model
A dark carved lion head with a heavy mane, mounted on a small stone base. The surface looks like aged bronze or blackened stone. It stands about 1.5 ft tall and about 1 ft wide, a small ornament on the grid.
Set it on a pedestal in a palace hall, a temple entrance, a guild headquarters or a noble's gallery. It is an obvious candidate for a hidden mechanism, a magical guardian or a carved clue, and players will often check its mouth for something. As loot it is heavy and valuable, which makes carrying it out a problem in itself.
Ideas for the table
- Putting a coin in the lion head's mouth opens the vault door behind it.
- The eyes of the carved lion follow whoever holds the stolen gem.
- The lion head is one of four, and the party must find the other three to unlock the shrine.
