D1 Random Mountain Encounters

1. The trail has been covered by a landslide. The players will have to find another route around it or dig through it (which will take 1-2 days to complete).
   
   
2. The party sees three men arguing over who has the biggest nose. One of them says that the other two have smaller noses than his nose and that they are just jealous of him. If players approach them, they will stop arguing and one of them will act as if they are talking to invisible people instead of the players.
   
   
3. Lava flow has covered a large area of the mountain pass. The lava is moving slowly and is only about a foot deep. A group of 3d4+4 humans are trying to cross the lava to get to the other side. They are not sure if there is another pass. The party will have to convince them that there is another pass and that it is safe to cross the lava.
   
   
4. A patch of ground nearby is covered in footprints, leading to a nearby cave entrance. The players can see that these are goblin footprints.
   
   
5. Players come across a group of elderly men and women who are sitting around a table. They are playing a game of cards. The elderly men and women are arguing about whether or not they should bet their life savings on the next game.
   
   
6. A group of goliaths challenge the players to a wrestling match to determine who is the strongest. If the players win, the goliaths may reveal some valuable information about the mountain and its inhabitants.
   
   
7. The players find themselves in the middle of a clash between a gold dragon and a group of fire giants. Will they aid the dragon or make a deal with the giants for riches?
   
   
8. A pack of werewolves have taken up residence in a cave, and they are preying on travelers passing through the mountains. Will the players try to reason with them or take them out?
   
   
9. A group of ogres have taken over a small village at the base of the mountain, terrorizing the villagers and demanding tribute. The players must strategize and find a way to defeat the ogres and liberate the village.
   
   
10. The party finds a group of 2d4+1 giant spiders who have spun a large web across a narrow path. If the players can navigate through the web without getting stuck, they will reach a hidden cave where a group of halfling thieves are hiding their loot. The halflings will offer to share their loot with the players if they can help them sneak past the spiders and escape from the mountains.
