D1 Random Crypt Encounters
- You sense undead activity; a deceptive calm or the ambiance of growing undead menace.
- Bats flutter from the rafters as the ceiling crumbles slightly. Move carefully or risk unsettling more than just bats.
- An ancient candle sconce holds a half-melted candle still burning. Use its light or extinguish it, suspecting magical involvement.
- Players hear the sound of water dripping. If they follow the sound, they will find a large amount of water dripping from the ceiling of the crypt. The water falling from the ceiling is not natural. The source is within the walls. It is a water elemental.
- As you descend deeper into the crypt, the walls narrow, forcing you into single file. Every step seems to echo endlessly, a reminder of the oppressive darkness around you. You suddenly find yourself in a chamber with four death knights clad in tattered armor, wielding glowing swords. Their leader speaks of a prophecy involving your bloodline, offering a dark bargain. Do you seek the power they offer, knowing the price, or defy them, risking an eternity of their wrath?
- Stacks of disordered scrolls within an underground study offer lore about distant lands and undue discussions of esoteric magic. However, perusing them too keenly attracts the attentions of a jealous ghostly librarian.
- A gruesome altar stands at the back of an otherwise empty chamber. It appears centuries old and is covered in dried blood. The twist: Offer an item or your blood on the altar, and it will grant a vision. However, the altar’s deity takes a keen interest in the offerer and may bring them back to this altar in their dreams.
- Alchemical residue stains the floor, offering hints to a wizard’s failed experiments.
- Within a misty grotto, a siren's spectral song beckons the adventurers. They must resist her lullaby or they will become one of her many drowned thralls.
- You see an old man who is sitting on a nearby chair while holding an old book in his hand while he is reading it. He looks up and says, 'Greetings travelers! Have you heard about my adventure with Gorgar the Great? It was years ago, but I will tell you about it if you want me to.'
