Random Encounter Tables


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


So I've been running an old school dungeon crawl for my kids' group and was wondering if anyone's made an expanded encounters table for critters and such? I've used the one at d20 Pathfinder SRD which is the same in the books, but was hoping for some tables that included B2 content.


So I'm guessing not ... Maybe that'll be my next project then :)


Dark Quest Games makes a handful of random encounter tables for $1 or so each.

This is just one example: 100 Dark Street And Alley Encounters

They are just 100 possible ideas for encounters, mostly normal things. But you do have to have the NPCs or monsters at hand. But what do you expect for $1? MY GM thought they where interesting. Hope this is helpful at all.


Just a couple of suggestions for you. The old Campaign Setting book had a section of random encounter tables in it. I don't have my Inner Sea World Guide handy, but off the top of my head I don't think those tables got printed in the new version.

There is also a book by Necromancer Games that was designed for 3.5 called The Mother of all Encounter Tables. I never used that book myself, but I've heard from others in the hobby that it can be very useful for creating "random" encounters.
