The characters come across an oasis inhabited by a Lamia and Roll 2d4 Jackalweres in human form. The Lamia invites the characters to relax at the oasis while her servants provide food and drink. If the characters agree to stay at the oasis, the Jackalweres use their Sleep Gaze action to attempt to knock the characters unconscious; characters who partake in the food and drink have disadvantage on their saving throws. If all the characters fall unconscious, they awake to find the oasis, the Lamia, and all the Jackalweres are gone, and each character has lost Roll 1d10*10 gp (if a character is not carrying sufficient gp, the remainder is taken from the party fund). The Jackalweres attempt to kill any characters who succeed on their saving throw before stealing from the unconscious characters. If combat breaks out, the lamia only joins if she is attacked or if all the Jackalweres are slain. If the Lamia is slain, the illusion of the oasis dissipates, revealing a hidden hoard of treasure containing the following:

-Roll 1d6*500 cp, Roll 2d6*100 sp, and Roll 4d6*10 gp
