201 D&D Random Air Encounters

D1 Random Elemental Plane of Air Encounters

1. A cyclone appears! It's extremely dangerous!
   
   
2. Sudden bursts of spring air cause ephemeral flower petals to burst forth only to disappear seconds later.
   
   
3. Players come across an airship with a crew of strange creatures from the Plane of Air.
   
   
4. A turbulent formation of 2d8 air warriors dueling with swords of wind and shadow.
   
   
5. The party comes across a group of air genasi who have built a city in the clouds. They invite the players to stay and feast, but they soon realize that the genasi are keeping a dark secret - they have been stealing powerful magic from the planes below to fuel their city.
   
   
6. The party stumbles upon a mountain of clouds, revealing the presence of an exalted temple held by zephyr monks. These warrior-priests hold vital texts on the everlasting ethers, with 3d4 zealot monks misguidedly prepared to repel any “defiler”. Diplomacy or combat against them reveals deeper tenets about air magic and ancient hierarchies.
   
   
7. A group of marids are battling each other over territory. The players can choose to help one side or stay out of it. If they help one side, they can get a reward from that race or any other race that is associated with that race.
   
   
8. A region of rarefied air reveals a network of invisible wind tunnels populated by flickering wisps and ephemeral sprites. These entities are guardians of ancient wind paths kept secret for millennia. Navigating these tunnels requires deciphering the fluctuating currents’ song, a task demanding profound attunement to the plane’s essence. Missteps attract a flock of hungry air rocs, bred to eradicate intruders. Successfully navigating earns access to a trance-like state where untold knowledge of ancient events and potential conspiracies can be revealed through communing with the sprites.
   
   
9. A mischievous djinn offers the party wishes but each wish has a humorous twist. “Wish you could have seen that coming, did you?”
   
   
10. Players see a strange creature of pure air, surrounded by rapidly moving winds. It has no physical form, but voices can be heard in the wind. The creature will grant the players a wish if they help free him from captivity.
