Random Wasteland Encounters + Generator (DND 5e)

D4 Random Wasteland Encounters

1. A band of mysterious metal men are traveling down the road, looking for a town. They will attack the party if they aren't cautious, as they walk down the road, looking for a town. They appear to be humanoid and will attack the party with spells and attacks if they are provided with no food or treasure and/or attacked.
   
   
2. A large group of 2d6+2 men dressed in robes with hoods and holding lanterns are walking down the road in opposite direction of you.
   
   
3. A river of quicksilver flows through the Wasteland, teeming with aquatic creatures of pure mercury that shimmer in the starlight. Crossing the river requires the assistance of 3d6 river guides, shape-shifters betting their transformation abilities on the party's success. Assisting the guides with their plight against an oppressive alchemical cult reveals an ancient pact and grants access to a hidden repository of powerful alchemical secrets.
   
   
4. A petrified forest lies eerily silent, its stone trees covered in strange runes. These runes speak of betrayal within an ancient royal family. Disturbing one tree releases 1d4 petrified nobles, cursed to attack any who learn their secret.
