D1 Random Beach Encounters

1. The sound of crashing waves can be heard ahead. If players investigate, they will find that the waves are crashing against a small cave opening in the rocks to the right of the path. The waves are high enough that the players will likely get wet if they try to enter the cave. The waves crashing against the rock make it impossible to enter the cave even if they wanted to.
   
   
2. A group of mermen are fighting with a group of mermaids. The mermaids think one merman is ugly.
   
   
3. You see a man standing on the beach, with his back to you. He is holding a large stone over his head, preparing to throw it into the sea. If the party asks, he will tell them that he is trying to make the sea angry, so that it will return his lost love to him.
