D1 Random Cave Encounters

  1. A group of dwarves are mining in the cave. They have been sent by the king to mine for gold. They are not friendly to strangers and will attack them if they are not able to talk their way out of it.

  2. Players come across a strange creature with four arms, two heads and glowing red eyes. It is holding a magical staff and is able to cast powerful spells.

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

  4. Hanging luminous crystals prove a sanctuary for 2d6 empathetic nymphs aiding a young dwarven couple. The nymphs warn of a manticore's impending raid driven by covetous desires, requiring relentless combat or strategic deterrence.

  5. A tiny stream passes across the tunnel floor, trickling into the darkness.

  6. Players encounter an old wizard. The wizard will offer to teach the players some magic in exchange for something valuable.

  7. At an abrupt, jagged drop, a twisted rope bridge leads into the darkness. 1d8 mimics masquerade as part of the bridge structure, springing to life if players attempt to cross. Success translates to discovering an ancient network of passageways; failure could mean a deadly plummet or being devoured by the shapeshifting creatures.

  8. Up ahead, you see a room full of gold coins. However, they are enchanted coins. Any player that touches them will become very greedy. They will not attack their party members, but they will try to steal as much treasure as they can.

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

  10. The air thickens with energy, revealing a series of ceaseless lightning arcs across the chamber. 2d4 storm elementals are drawn to the charged energy. Trying to harness this stormy realm is Farodo, an electrician-devotee seeking a sacred thunderstone. Assisting Farodo involves negotiating volatile elemental confrontations, crafting artifacts, or choosing to navigate through the storm’s wrath endanger in battle tactics.
