D1 Random Desert Encounters

1. The players find a gravely injured knight, devoutly clutching a holy symbol. He was tasked with guarding a sacred tomb but failed and now seeks forgiveness. Entering the tomb reveals 3d6 animated desert skeletons and the knight’s fallen comrades turned into wraiths. They must decide how to treat the knight’s tormented soul.
   
   
2. The adventurers come across an old shrine dedicated to an unknown god. The shrine is surrounded by strange symbols and runes.
   
   
3. As they crest a dune, the adventurers see a massive, heaving chest of sand sliding down the slope. At its base, a clutch of desert eagles fiercely defends their nest, mistaking the shifty sands for an approaching threat.
   
   
4. A band of vultures circles overhead, eyeing the party.
   
   
5. An angry dust devil whirls around, swatting away at some invasive tumbleweeds and creating tiny chaos.
   
   
6. The hypnotic dance of a thousand grains of sand carried by the sirocco winds brings you to a hidden alcove, where a single monument lingers—an undisturbed Nabatean tomb.
   
   
7. A group of men are praying to a strange idol. The men are cultists of an evil god and will attack anyone who enters the room.
   
   
8. The players come across a large creature in the desert, who is actually a powerful wizard in disguise. He will offer rewards in exchange for the players helping him with a task.
   
   
9. Abrupt noise disturbs their path—flitting wisps of crypt-sent rattles searching valuables. Unearthing cautionary caution origins summon tales long faded suggesting echoes haunted by earlier misgivances—tied deeply beneath history’s veil.
   
   
10. In the shimmer of a mirage, a caravanserai appears. Within its protective walls, carriers of water psychoanalyze the desert culture to strangers’ plights, exchanging tidbits about notorious criminal activities involving a noble house afar.
