Temple of Bane |

Area Note
At random locations in this area you’ll encounter “four orcs whose shields bear a black hand on a red field.” If you kill the orcs, they’ll drop six leather holy symbols. You might need the symbols to enter the temple (#1).
After you’ve defeated Mace in the temple, you’ll be able to rest in this area without being interrupted.
1 - Temple Entrance
You’ll meet an old blind orc with eight orc guards outside the temple. Supposedly, if you’ve picked up leather holy symbols, then the blind orc will sense them and allow you to enter the temple. But we never found that. The orcs always let us through, whether we had the symbols or not. Perhaps all you need to do is have the leather holy symbols in your possession at some point, and not necessarily when you approach the temple.
Once inside the temple, you’ll run into Mace and his followers. Mace is a cleric (and can cast “hold person” on your characters), so try to kill him first and then worry about all the orcs and orc leaders he’s with. Fireballs and sleep spells work wonders here. Once the battle is over, you’ll find journal entry 25 plus Mace’s mace +1. If Dirten is with you and if he’s still alive, he’ll leave you at this point.
Note: The battle with Mace can happen in a few places: at the altar (#5) if you destroy it, at the third trap door (#2-4) you loot, or at the entrance if you try to leave after entering the temple.
2 - Trap Door
Inside the trap door you’ll find two clerical scrolls and a magic user scroll.
3 - Trap Door
Inside the trap door you’ll find a potion of giant strength, a potion of healing, a potion of speed, a wand of magic missiles, and dust of disappearance.
4 - Trap Door
Inside the trap door you’ll find a hand axe +1, a dagger +1, a hammer +1, a mace +1, a morning star +1, a scimitar +1, a spear +1, and a short sword +1.
5 - Altar
You should destroy the altar since it is part of cleansing the temple of Bane’s presence. “The uneasy feeling leaves you.”
