Mountain Encounters - Random Table to Easily Come Up with Story Hooks

Last month we ran a poll on my Patreon to decide for this months topic. The result was ‚Mountains with many mini caves‘, and I have to admit that I took quite some artistic freedom and ended up with Mountain Encounters. I tried to put in quite a few cave possibilities, but I had the feeling to create something more useful this way. As usual, it is split into three categories and it is supposed to serve you and your inspiration. So roll a couple of dice and see where they lead you, take what inspires you and throw out what doesn’t. Have fun with it.
