Random Wasteland Encounters + Generator (DND 5e)

D4 Random Wasteland Encounters

1. The air crackles with static as three vengeful storm elementals besiege the players, seeking revenge for their captured kin. Players must retrieve their kin for a thunderous respite.
   
   
2. As you wander through the wasteland, you notice a small figure crouched behind a rock. It turns out to be a goblin scavenger who is trying to hide from a group of larger goblins who have taken over his territory. He asks for your help in reclaiming his home and offers to share his hidden stash of treasures with you as a reward.
   
   
3. Upon a wind-swept rise, the players come upon a rift that leads to a spectral realm, merging wraith-like beings with the mortal world. There they meet Eilanna, a seer trapped between realities, bearing messages of hope and warning. She reveals the rift is a tear caused by a dark experiment and can only be closed by uniting three enchanted relics scattered far across the wasteland. Should they succeed, sealing the rift will protect both realms from imminent calamity. Eilanna, now free to wander the realms, leaves them with 'The Veil of Visions,' a mystical item granting precognitive insights at pivotal moments.
   
   
4. Faint cries of pain draw players to a pit filled with writhing roots. Five vengeful dryads are trapped and demand the party punish the loggers who cut down their sacred grove. Players must decide whether to seek out the culprits or deal with the dryads' wrath.
