D1 Random Cave Encounters

  1. A group of 1d10 bandits are hiding in the cave, planning to ambush anyone who enters. They're really good at hiding and will be difficult to spot even by those with good perception skills.

  2. Chilled droplets fall from above, dampening your hair and shoulders.

  3. Navigating through freezing corridors, wild draft reveals a cavern encased entirely in reflective ice. 2d4 ice revenants guard silently. At the center stands Helara, an ice shifter seeking to control the cave's temperatures for her spellcraft. Players aiding Helara learning unique frost-based enchantments while disturbing attempting to navigate through without intention risks battling tempered frost revenants.

  4. Iridescent butterflies wander filling caverns with soft light. Following their tail-ends sharpens mind and body coordination but tethers perception to their rhythm thereafter.

  5. A manic half-gnoll chef named Gruff is obsessed with finding the perfect spice for his bat stew. Offer your culinary expertise in exchange for a special, if strange, stew recipe.

  6. Bat droppings make the ground treacherous underfoot.

  7. A group of elven rogues are stealing from the people who pass through the area. The players catch them in the act and are challenged to a fight.

  8. A human is walking through the cave. He is looking for treasure. He is carrying a lantern and a dagger.

  9. The players come across a group of 1d4 hobgoblins. The hobgoblins are led by a hobgoblin cleric. The hobgoblins are hunting a pack of dire wolves.

  10. Players come across a group of 2d4 wyverns who are nesting in a nearby cave. They will attack if the players get too close.
