Planning for the Maritime Campaign. It won't start for a while, if ever. But one thing I realize I need are less historical pastiche nations/islands, and more weird crazy shit. So to help me along during game times, when I'm sure the players are bound to decide to explore islands I haven't filled out or decided to be the home of a module, I've got this random table cooked up.
Of course, this is only a first draft.
Mysterious Island Random contents:
Roll 2d6
2 Important Clue
3 Powerful Monster Lair
4 Witch
5 Ruins/Dungeon
6 Common Monster Lair
7 Settled
8 Empty

10 Cursed
11 Unusual Environment
12 Roll 2 times
Important Clue: Someone or something here will point the PCs toward the goal of their quest.
