Job Location: Tolgalen
Job Description: You discovered a cave opening besides Usawoti Lake which indicated evidence that salt workers having gone missing were dragged within. After returning to the client, the businessmen employing the salt workers, and letting them know what was going on, the businessmen implore you to investigate further and rescue the workers. Inside of this underground cave appears to be a refuge for members of a tribe which worships the Matapo. You see wall paintings, pottery and articles of clothing representing the Matapo monsters in the lake. Tribe members which see you will fight you, but you can defeat them without killing if you choose. You discover the salt workers tied up deep inside of the cave where a pool of water appears to show an underwater entrance to the cave. It is here where the workers inform you that one of their own was walked out by the tribe to be made the first human sacrifice. If you free the workers, or if you don't, when you walk back out of the cave you will be met with strong Matapo tribe warriors and their chief. They will negotiate the release of the workers if you can best their 'god', the Matapo, in combat. Agreeing to this ends this job.

Enemies:
Weak: Natural Dangers (Any number): From wild fanged weasels, blood sucking mosquitos the size of mice, and poisonous snakes hiding in small nooks and crannies, this cave is filled with a variety of natural dangers. There are slippery rocks, sharp sheaths of stone, pointed stalagmites, and mysterious large pools of lake water. Being harmed can deal D-C rank damage, while removing these dangers only takes 1-2 hits of D rank damage to defeat or the dangers can be avoided through rp.

Normal: Matapo Tribe Youth (5+) : Oftentimes, the teenagers and young adults of the tribe are used as sentries and guards for the cave. Typically an easy and boring job, the promise of a fight when intruders enter the cave exhilarates them. They have impressive, though homemade, weapons (spears, bolas, knives, staves, etc.) and do not use magic. What is hardest to work with them is their speed, stealth, and strength. They spend nearly every day living on this lake and training for survival and are extremely fit. They deal C-B rank damage when they strike, but need only 2-3 B rank hits to be defeated.

Strong: Matapo Tribe Warriors (10+) : A mix of magic using and melee fighters, this group of warriors are strong and seasoned fighters. Nobody knows the cave in and out like they do and will find strategic advantages for fighting you. With magic, most of them have elemental water or stone abilities, a few have a strange ability to cause temporary sickness or disease. Their attacks are smart and well planned, and deal B rank damage when they hit. A few of them wear magical totems collected from dead Matapo or human bones that give them magical or physical healing once during a fight each. It takes 4 B rank hits to bring one warrior down, and that is not accounting for if he heals himself.
