Fixed monster encounters

• 00: 5 worms
• 01: 1 worms

Note that nearly all fixed monster encounters in the game are just a fixed number of worms, specifically an equal number of worms to the encounter ID number (given on the map in hexadecimal). The only exceptions are encounter zero (5 worms) and the last two encounters in the game. Dungeons of Avalon II has more varied encounters.

Encounters at non-numbered encounter squares are chosen at random.

Notes

• The entry to this level from the starting city is in the bottom-left of the map.
• Most of this level is inaccessible until you have been to the second level of the dungeon.
• This level has more treasure chests than any other level in the game.
• In the room with three chests, the one in the northeast contains the ruby dagger. The others are trapped and contain nothing. The message “The exit is in the northeast” is a clue to this.
• You don’t actually have to give Elistaire the ruby dagger to proceed. However, he guards a huge amount of treasure.
• The combat encounter directly north of the chest which gives a sword and 60g always contains 5 worms.
• This level has 4 stairways down.
• Scroll 2 reads “With the feather you can hover over the ice.”
