Description -
- Stone steps lead from the watch post to a 30cm thick platform of zurkhwood (see "Fungi of the Underdark" earlier in chapter 2) extending between two of the hanging towers and into three adjoining caverns.
- The two southernmost caves serve as barracks for the rank-and-file Drow warriors of the outpost. Six warriors dwell in each barracks, each set up with a pallet, a small zurkhwood chest for holding personal possessions and equipment, and a side table. Spider silk rope webbing on the cavern walls is set with hooks for hanging lanterns and other items, but the barracks are rarely lit.
Enemies -
One Drow is present in each of the barracks caves at any time, resting in a meditative trance. A resting Drow rises at any significant light or noise, ready to attack.

Treasure -
The equipment of the resting Drow is stored under his pallet: a Shortsword, a Hand Crossbow with a Case of 20 Hand Crossbow Bolts, a Chain shirt, and a 20m coil of Silk Rope with a small Grappling Hook at the end.
Each of the six Chests in each barracks contains a Flask of Drow Poison used to treat Crossbow Bolts. One Flask has enough poison to treat 20 Bolts. Each Chest also contains two sets of Clothing and 1d4 items from the Trinkets table in chapter 5 of the Player's Handbook.
