Looking to add to my random encounter list with the Darkmoon Vale and the fey mischievous acts and mythic nature of the woods.
1. Twelve hours suddenly pass in the blink of an eye.
2. A malevolent tree stands ahead, surrounded by tangled nightshade. A flock of undead birds rests in silence upon its branches.
3. A headless female corpse lies on the ground surrounded by stone statues.
4. A translucent leprechaun with an over-sized pouch ducks behind a rock. Searching the area finds a shallow grave, covered in stones, of a dead leprechaun and his empty pot of gold.
5. A small human hand with gold rings on each finger is found in the center of a fairy ring. If someone attempts to move it, the hand grips the would-be mover and that person is cursed with voices for 1d4 days then the hand vanishes.
6. A horde of savage bugbear marauders. They have recently slaughtered a rival gang of ogres, and are celebrating their victory.
7. A heavy grey fog suddenly rises from the ground after a few minutes the sound of flutes from start playing.
8. A corrupted ash tree stands within a shadowed vale. Many withered corpses hang from its branches.
9. The party must resist the charms of a mystic song that is luring them to danger (a cliff, etc.)
10. An ancient tree is dying, and asks the party to tell it a story before it goes.
11. Tea Party: A devious fey has arranged a table with chairs under a large tree. There are a dozen chairs and half the occupants are dead. Their faces have been painted to appear smiling.
12. A Druid has died. His animal companion was a wolf. A lone howl in the night always comes from the east. Every night the group hears the howls. If they follow the sounds it leads to a Druid Cave and his grim remains.
13. An Insane Dwarf has started construction on a staircase to the Sun. He tries to enlist the Player Characters to help him finish his project. He claims that the Sun is a perfect mining opportunity.
14. A pair of petrified humanoids. Closer inspection you notice they were bitten. Every 100ft or so you find another petrified body. A Flock of Cockatrice has made a lair in a nearby cave.
15. The players stumble into a ball or party of some sort, and have to dance their way out.
16. A skeleton is pinned to the tree by a long spear, it has obviously been here for some time and is falling apart. The skeleton is a little tall and thin to be human, the spear is long and elegant, apparently made of silver it stubbornly refuses to be removed.
17. Two great bears battle each other for dominance.
18. The weather changes wildly, some where in the distance a fey is toying with the party.
19. An unearthly tree stands ahead, adorned with pink flowers. Time seems to pass more slowly here.
20. A group of mourning creatures, burying a corpse within a circle of stones.
