D1 Random Elemental Plane of Air Encounters

1. A group of 2d6 merchants meet the party. They are escorting a wagon full of goods. The goods are worth 1d20x10 gp. They want the party to take the goods to another town for them. They will pay the party 1d6x10 gp to do it.
   
   
2. A sudden gust of wind blows through the area, revealing a hidden treasure chest buried in the clouds. However, it's guarded by a powerful air djinn who will not give up the treasure without a challenge.
   
   
3. Enrooted within the deep void, a thief contacts the players, warning of a mercenary band—seven aarakocra assassins—thieving the Sky Oracle’s Eye to halt divine visions. It’s up to the players to stealth into their cliffside redoubt and secure the Eye or face dire prophecies within an escalating conspiracy beyond mortal control.
   
   
4. The players come across a small island floating in the air, held up by a powerful air elemental. On the island, they find a group of curious air elementals who want to learn more about the world below. They may offer to trade knowledge or items with the players.
   
   
5. A group of 6d6+6 elemental birds attack the airship, trying to bring it down so they can eat the wreckage.
   
   
6. A group of 1d4+4 dwarves are searching for treasure. They are drunk, and if the party approaches, they will demand to know what the party is doing in their territory. If the party does not have a good excuse, they will attack.
   
   
7. The party is approached by a group of dragonborn, led by a bronze dragon, who are searching for a way to return to their home on the Elemental Plane of Air. They can offer the players rewards if they assist them in finding a powerful artifact that can reopen the portal to their home.
   
   
8. The ghostly remains of an ancient aviator, hauntingly preoccupied with completing an endless flight, appear alongside 2d4 spectral air steeds. Assisting the ghost may end the haunting, with spectral guides offering their services as repayment.
   
   
9. A celebration of 3d1 air golem crafters commemorating their constructs floats by. Engaging in their tradition could bestow temporary guardianship over an exquisitely crafted air golem.
   
   
10. An ethereal market floats before you, where merchants peddle gravity-defying wares. Browsing too long may invite the unwelcome attention of elemental thieves who blend seamlessly with the background.
