D1 Random Crypt Encounters
- At the crypt’s deepest end, an ultimate convergence of arcane ley lines forms a nexus of pure magical energy. Here, the players meet an ancient arcane warden who challenges them with riddles embodying the essence of magic itself. Passing this test grants attunement to ley-line magic, while failing disrupts the balance expelling uncontrollable arcane anomalies.
- A feeble candlelight illuminates the corridor ahead, revealing an exhausted adventurer who offers a cryptic warning before collapsing.
- A petrified noblewoman, eternally youthful due to a dark pact, is found entwined with a stone at the crypt’s heart. This pact involved 2d6 earthly bindings to political and demonic realms, where her condition serves as a magical linchpin. Freeing her could unravel several curses affecting powerful families, while maintaining the status quo reinforces the injustices silently.
- An old wine bottle, still sealed, lies next to a skeletal hand. Drinking it restores health but brings vivid nightmares.
- They discover a secret crypt of a dwarven king whose undead legion rises when his tomb is disturbed. The spirit of the king challenges the party’s might in a glorious battle for honor.
- In a chamber pulsating with dark energy, a necromantic tome seeks to possess the most magically attuned adventurer. With each second, its malevolent will grows stronger.
- The crypt’s corridors open into a sunken temple room filled with fetid water. A brood of 2d6 crypt ghouls lie submerged, waiting to drown unsuspecting travelers. Traversing using the ancient, raised pathways inscribed with prayers can offer a safer route.
- The players enter a strange chamber filled with magical lights that swirl around in patterns. Anyone who touches the lights will be trapped in an alternate dimension, unable to find their way back to the chamber again.
- An eerie, green flame flickers indefinitely in a torch bracket. The twist: Taking the flame grants immunity to undead attacks but amplifies the user's deepest fear, making it nearly tangible.
- A slight breeze carries the scent of decay. Investigate the source or cover your nose, bracing for the worst.
