So I'm homebrewing a short adventure for my players for in between modules, and I'm setting it in Osirion. They'll be going on a pyramid-exploring adventure. When I was reading the Osirion book, it says at one point that there are a bunch of androsphinxes in a mountain range that may know a lot of information about the treasure sites along the coast, which would be where the party is headed.
I thought it might make a neat encounter for them to negotiate with the sphinx to get knowledge of how to get into the site they're trying to investigate. In the same little blurb, it mentions that the sphinxes are pretty haughty and don't hand their knowledge out to just anybody, but there's a particular bit of knowledge they'd love to have and might be willing to trade for.
I'm trying to make up something that the sphinxes might want to know, but so far I'm drawing a blank on good ideas. So: what kinds of things do you think a sphinx might want to know about?
