Imprisoned in the chamber beyond this door are 3 ghouls. The ghouls
subsist on entrails and rotting scraps left over from feasts, so they’re
always hungry. They hear everything going on in the hallway and are
poised along the front wall of the room, ready to attack the first person
who enters or leans through the doorway after the door is opened — unless
that person is wearing a deathbearer mask. They won’t immediately attack
someone wearing a jackal mask because they expect such a person to
bring them food, however meager it might be. The moment they realize a
mask-wearer isn’t bringing a basket of maggot-ridden meat, they attack.
