Comment on “DM Workshop, Week 2”

I second Danielle Osterman's "statues of Bashag's followers". It expands on the statue and orcish themes, and has a lot of features for the player to ponder: should we smash more of them? do the statues contain anything? were they made by the same sculptor(s) that made the larger statue? will they come to life or otherwise present unusual features if triggered? is one of them special with the rest inert? is there any linkage between the statues and the doors (whether mechanical, magical, or just conceptual)?
