D1 Random Crypt Encounters
- They find a dollhouse replica of the entire crypt. The twist: Moving pieces in the dollhouse reconfigures the actual crypt around them, providing strange advantages or dangerous disadvantages based on their whims.
- Distant chanting in a language you don’t understand floats through the air. It's a harmless echo of a long-forgotten ritual, but players might still find it disconcerting.
- You encounter a lone figure writing on scrolls amidst broken niches. Engage diplomatically for guidance; forceful interruption brings furious banshee retaliation.
- G.O.U.L.L.E.T.T.E.S (Giant Old Undead Living Lifeless Thing Entering the Tomb) - A giant, animated mummy, shambling forward on withered, rotting limbs, will attack anyone in the crypt. The mummy has been animated by a powerful evil wizard who is attempting to create an army of the undead.
- Glowing runes light up the walls, showing scenes of ancient rituals. Touching the runes summons a ghostly scribe who mistakes the players for his long-dead students and insists on imparting forbidden knowledge—offering benefits but also severe curses if misused.
- An ancient glyph on the floor requires a DC15 Intelligence check to decipher. Failure triggers a fire trap.
- A group of 2d6 tiny, playful spirits guide the party to a hidden treasure trove. The twist: The spirits’ definition of treasure is warped, leading the party to odd, sometimes useful, often bizarre items instead of traditional riches.
- In a room filled with shelves of rotting tomes, the players find a book bound in crimson leather. It reacts to their presence by flipping open to a random page, revealing a summoning spell for a demon bound to protect a hidden treasure. Activating the spell unleashes the demon, who will only surrender the treasure if the players answer its riddle—or defeat it in combat.
- The adventures witness spectral armies locked in eternal combat. By intervening and defeating the spectral general, the party can lay the restless soldiers to peace and gain their treasures.
- The floor becomes slippery with a mysterious, green slime that oozes from the walls, making every step treacherous.
