Fargodeep Mine

INTRODUCTION
Miners in the Fargodeep Goldmine have broken through into another, deeper tunnel. A group of miners who went into the tunnel have not returned. The party is sent in to explore the mine. They have Ez-dynamite to reseal the tunnel.

The mine connects with a kobold tunnel. The Defias have allied with the kobolds to use their tunnels to connect the Deadmines to Stormwind. The plan is to dig into the Stockades and invade the city from the inside.

The party has to face and possibly sneak past kobolds.

FARGODEEP MINE OVERVIEW
The Fargodeep mine is a two story wooden structure at the base of a hill. There is an entrance to the mine at the top and bottom. The mine is a hundred feet deep with many twisting passages that follow gold veins. The mine is dry in the upper levels, it does not reach the water level until the bottom (which is why they have not mined lower before).

PASSING THROUGH FARGODEEP
The PC's are given directions to follow through the mine. With directions finding their way is a DC15 Dungeoneering test, without directions it is DC25. It takes 8 successes to reach the bottom of the mine and the hole into the new tunnel. Two failures triggers the Scouting Party encounter, four failures triggers the Surveying Party encounter, six failures results in the PC's reaching the other entrance to the mine and being essentially back where they started.

The scouting parties are being somewhat quiet. DC 23 to hear them ahead of time, DC 18 to hear them right at contact.

The LOWER TUNNEL
The bottom of the Fargodeep Mine is a wet cave. A tunnel in the side opened into another tunnel - the kobolds. The kobolds have a camp set up in the cave and are preparing to explore. If the kobolds are defeated or think they are facing large numbers they retreat into their own tunnel and blow up the connecting passage causing a cave in.
