The altar is warm to the touch."Having failed to give out any meaningful treasure this way, I agreed that the PCs could take some of the esoteric books they found and sell them for 50 gold pieces each."But you need to roll a d6 for each one." I gave no other information.They were so spooked that they returned to town with no treasure, not having encountered anything other than the confused ghost of a military wizard of some sort, and were convinced they had escaped getting sucked into Hellraiser. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤷‍♂️" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f937-2642.png" title="Man shrugging    :man_shrugging:" data-shortname=":man_shrugging:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" /></blockquote>
