D1 Random Castle Encounters
- The castle's chief miner claims to have struck a vein of precious ore but is nervous about 2d8 giant insects swarming the mine. Guards need help clearing them out.
- You hear a loud argument coming from a nearby room. A group of nobles are debating the best way to raise taxes.
- The gatehouse’s rusted portcullis sways in a ghostly breeze, held by 1d6 sentries reciting oaths to an absent lord. Aiding them in ceremonial duties brings understanding of ancient allegiances; dismiss their honor and evoke spectral retribution.
- An ancient tapestry starts glowing when touched. 2d4 castle scholars reveal it's a map to a forgotten part of the castle, hinting at a long-lost relic.
- A treasure room guarded by elemental orbs that players must move in harmony to deactivate powerful wards protecting valuables.
- A group of 2d6+2 guards are walking down the hall. They are on their way to relieve the guards at the front gate.
- Deep within the catacombs, a vast mausoleum where winter's chill reaches deepest holds 2d4 frozen undead knights of an ancient order. Their leader's spectral presence, wrapped in icy chains, cries for release or redemption. Respectful dialogue honors ancient rites, yielding unique frost-bound relics and secrets of frozen realms abroad. Violent misjudgment prenatalizes into a freezing oblivion nearly inescapable.
- This is the room of the castle's chief scribe. He is working on a large book detailing the history of the lord of the castle, or he is working on a book detailing a history of an area of the world that was not covered in any other source. He is surprised by the players but he will talk to them and answer any questions they might have.
- There is an eerie silence in the castle. When the players investigate, they find that the castle is cursed and nobody is allowed to speak.
- 1d4 Ogres are chasing a naked man down the hall.
