D1 Random Cave Encounters
- A group of 2d10 dwarves are carrying a statue of their god, which is made out of gold and is worth 1,000 GP each. They will attack the players if they try to steal it.
- A creaky sound alert puts you on edge, as 3d2 ancient guardians roll into action. Adroit negotiation could lead to secrets, or they’ll not hesitate to smite you.
- A ghostly knight named Sir Jingles guards a forgotten treasure chest. Impressing him with tales of valor might prompt him to join the party temporarily, aiding with his spectral sword.
- 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.
- A group of 2d6 goblins are sitting around a campfire cooking their dinner. If players approach, the goblins will attack!
- You find a clump of animal fur caught on a jagged rock edge.
- Lurking among the rocks lies a small group of 1d8 armadillo-like creatures, their spikes gleaming. If players can befriend them, they gain a valuable ally for future encounters.
- Stalactites and stalagmites almost form natural pillars around you.
- A network of small spider webs covers the corner of the cave.
- The ceiling of the cave is unexpectedly high, creating a vast open space.
