Encounters on The Island (d100 or 10d10 encounters)

FODOR'S GOT NOTHIN ON ME

I did not make this image

	This chart assumes an encounter has been rolled. It can be used as a d10 chart for a specific region or a d100 chart for the entire island.
	In my game encounters are probably more rare than usual in the South and North areas.
South
1	Roll Twice, both results are here and probably fighting; if you get this result again roll three times
2	1d8 Large Crabs (~4 ft tall)
3	8d8 Large Crabs migrating to the ocean to breed; will attack anything preventing them from getting to the waterline or interfering with mating or egg laying
4	8d8 Juvenile Crabs (~1-2 ft) Migrating from the ocean to the tree line; will attack anything blocking them
5	1d4 Flying Land Manta; can camouflage as sand or tree bark but only does this to avoid or escape from fights; can call others subsonically
6	[1] Living Sand [2 - 3] Sand Elemental [4] Dust Devil (as the spell but under it's own control)
7	1d6 Shipwrecked humanoids; 50% chance they are pirates
8	4d4 Skeletons (undead, animated, probably former shipwrecked pirates)
9	2d4 Ghouls (or equivalent medium-difficulty undead; probably former shipwrecked pirates; might take prisoners)
10	Roll a d4 and consult this chart [1=7, 2-3=8, 4=9] plus a Wight (or equivalent mid-higher level intelligent undead {think miniboss not boss}; former shipwrecked humanoid)
South East
11	Vampire Necromancer and former pirate, plus some of his crew [roll 1d4 twice and see South: 1=8, 2-3=9, 4=10]; Likely to fight but might hear out attempts to parlay; track as important NPC
12	Spirit of the River that bifurcates the Southern half of the island; Demigod level; consult Quelong or roll yr own; Hates Undead
13	1d6 ragged sailors nearly mad with hunger and malnutrition; if convinced to submit to physical examination, marks of undead feeding are present
14	1d4+1 intelligent Gibbons clumsily fishing from a raft made exertly with forest materials
15	2d4 Gibbon Hunters; their goal is not agression but to bring food back to the village - if that involves agression, however…
16	Treetop village of intelligent Gibbons, don't care about money for it's own sake but are willing to trade and/or provide temporary shelter; clever with building things but only use forest materials
17	1d4 Snakes; [1] normal, but 1d4 more of them [2-3] Giant River Snake [4] Emmisary of the River Spirit on a mission
18	1d4 River Crocodiles; one on the first round, then the seond (If any) makes it's presence known, etc

20	Lizardfolk river trader/hunters; easily offended and aggressive; 50% chance followed by Elven or Lizardfolk bandits
East
21	The trees are too thick to pass the way the PCs want to go. Roll for how time consuming it is to hack through. Chopping trees sure is loud. If rolled again, the PCs see a Treant move. It will bargain for their silence.
22	a bear.
23	2d6 hungry carniverous fish migrating over land
24	Lizardfolk hunting party; they are preoccupied with the hunt and will be abrupt and dismissive.

28	Lizardfolk town around the base of a waterfall/start of the river. They may take outsiders prisoner for a few days of questioning. They are xenophobic, rude, aggressive, but not stupid.
29	The Questing Beast!

33	10d4 Migration of carnivorous, amphibious fish with jaws like steel traps and a low, cunning intelligence. Good thing they're only 3d4 inches tall. Those familiar can manipulate their instincts.
34	3d4 Seahuagin - near-bestial fish people who are only on land to hunt and will try to eat anything they think they can take. Communication with land-dwellers takes painful concentration for them.
35	1d6 Elves in forest-dweller garb studying the opened corpses of a Seahuagin and Carnivorous amphibious fish. They have biomechanical devices (not seen on the island unless specifically mentioned)

60	2d4 starving Once-Elves
West
61	Roll on W,NW,SW, results are here and probably fighting; if you get this result again roll three times
62	Biomech defenses as 36-37 but covered in inky oil bubble preventing them from working (unless a result of 61, then functional)

Center of Island
	A mad place of the Fey where mortals are overwhelmed with nonsensical hallucinations while trying to navigate intricate magical deals, comforts, persuasions, affairs;
	or perhaps a strangely empty and peaceful land that is too quiet where items mysteriously disappear;
	or perhaps a portal to another land;
	perhaps a great black mountain where no life dwells that greedily draws metal to it with violent force;
	perhaps a great golden throne, larger than any human would need, crusted with jewels and luminous; anyone sitting on it (or touching it at all?)will vanish, only to appear somewhere else in the world with no memory;
	some have said it is a great pit to The Underworld; a way to bypass Charons Toll (and any other usual requirement for entering the Land of the Dead)
	Was the whole island a drunken dream? Here we are in a familiar tavern…but friend, you appear older. And where is yon gear we used in the dream? Have we been robbed while in drunken slumber?
	Another pit, another Underworld; Demons and Fires and great mountains of freezing obsidian lined with cave-prisons inhabited by moaning, tortured souls. Is there one waiting for you?
	The Dwelling of the River Spirit, a place of pure energy that only reptilian kind are meant to be
	Your heart's desire is here, But It Will Not Come Easy…
