Chicken Level

The Chicken Level is a secret area in the Utraean Peninsula, the multiplayer world in .
==Overview==
The Chicken Level is an easter egg to reward your completion of the Utraean Peninsula Campaign and to give determined players something further to go for. The area's lore-friendly name is the "Trial of Gallus." A multiplayer session aimed at clearing the dungeon is often called a chicken run.
While the dungeon can be conquered alone, bringing help is advised. The inhabitants are exceedingly durable and dangerous. The Gallus trial is a fantastically rich source of rares, uniques, and multiplayer-only sets.
Three items are required to enter the level:
*Knife
*Fury's Eye
*Trial of Gallus
== Enemies ==
*The Chickens have very high health, armor, and attack power, and a brisk movement speed.
*The unique red chicken, Chris Taylor, uses an unblockable, long-ranged lightning blast. The expansion's combat engine revisions unintentionally nerfed certain monster attacks such as this one, which is especially dangerous in pre-LoA . 
*Colonel Norick is an extremely slow-moving mountain of health. He uses his fists. Do not attempt to engage him in melee without backup.
Most of the foes are grouped in threes and fours. Players will generally want to peel away and engage as few chickens at a time as they can manage. Thanks to the absurd health ratings in this dungeon the battles can last a long time, so be patient.
The health-balancing spells prevent any one party member from taking massive, hard-to-manage damage spikes in this area.
The Invisibility and Respite spells introduced in Legends of Aranna (and therefore after this area was designed) open up new possibilities for mages to herd the chickens together and blow them all up at once. Many spells do not break invisibility if targeted at the floor.
== Loot ==
This area is known, if not for having the very highest treasure content in the game, being at least close to it and tons of rares and uniques. The differences in scale and difficulty between the Normal, Veteran, and Elite versions of this dungeon are small.
=== White Chickens: ===
* Potions of varying health and mana regens. (There is a small chance of rejuvenation potions)
* High level unique (yellow) and rare (purple) gear
* High level blue rank gear
* Players running the expansion may also find set items in place of the yellow gear.
=== Red Chicken (Chris Taylor): ===
* Potions of varying health and mana regens. (There is a small chance of rejuvenation potions)
* High level unique (yellow) and rare (purple) gear

== Trivia ==
* The Chicken Level is based on Diablo II's Cow Level.
* Colonel Norick is named in reference to the character Norick from the Kingdom of Ehb campaign. It is likely that he was named in irony, as Norick is a weak old man who is the first recorded death in the campaign while Colonel Norick is considered the strongest enemy ever in the entire game. The name is also likely a reference to the Colonel Sanders of KFC fame, another colonel known for his association with chickens. 
* The name of each chicken is a significant person at Gas Powered Games who worked on the game ; the stronger Brown Chicken, Chris Taylor, was the game's head designer.
