d12 Random Huge Overland Encounters

12 random encounters that will shake the land. The GM may wish ti fill in some of the blanks.

These Huge monsters are intended for a High Fantasy game.

These encounters could also be adapted to a science fiction setting with a little effort. [Content Warning: Sharks, Spiders, Snakes] Roll 1d12 and…

1d12 Tables of the Day.

A small prelude to what I'm working on for my next release. This actually has nothing to do with that Deck of Many Somethings for that one game. This is for ShadowdarkRPG.

1d12 Random Events for characters carrying “that Deck of Many” cards. Let’s face it. Decks of cards with massive effects attached might attract some planar weirdness. It might be better to draw a card and send the deck onto the next poor fool, er…  recipient.
