The D10 Wizard Tower encounter table
d100 = 1
D10=1:Several books have been torn to shreds. There is blood on the floor.
D10=2:In a moonlit room, players encounter a sleeping phoenix whose heartbeats respond to shared tender moments, opening an exit.
D10=3:Amidst the iron-bound tomes and crackling spell books of the Wizard Tower’s arcane library, an ancient bronze manacle whispers of secret pacts and broken promises. The manacles seem to wriggle with life, animated by whispers that offer power at a steep moral cost. The deeper you delve into the library, the louder the whispers of treachery and grandeur become. Signing the pact grants access to powerful spells but also inscribes your name into the eternal hex that haunts the wizard's heraldic line, a betrayal to come festers with every hour.
D10=4:A bronze dragon head decorates a fountain in the hallway.
D10=5:An old rotary telephone seems to ring, though it is not connected to anything.
D10=6:The tower's basement is filled with bubbling cauldrons and strange concoctions. Suddenly, one of the cauldrons explodes, releasing a toxic gas that causes the party to hallucinate and have vivid nightmares. They must navigate through their fears and escape the basement before the gas overwhelms them.
D10=7:A room with a giant hourglass that controls time itself. The players can manipulate time to aid in their battles or solve puzzles. But be careful, as changing time can have unexpected consequences.
D10=8:Players find an ornate locket that projects the image of a lost lover when opened. They must perform an act of kindness to make it glow and reveal a hidden passage.
D10=9:A lonely gramophone spins an endless tune, its needle ghostly as it floats above the record.
D10=10:A levitating quill writes notes in mid-air.
d100 = 2
D10=1:A velvet cloak hovers around the room, draping itself on anyone entering.
D10=2:A room gleams with enchanted gold and relics radiating magical auras. Ten treasure hunters, greedy eyes alight, confront you, seeking to claim these riches. Negotiating with or outsmarting them impacts tower alliances and future encounters, while deception runs rampant.
D10=3:Fireflies creating patterns intercept the path. Arranging them into symbols of love illuminates the next passage.
D10=4:The apex chamber harbors a living, sentient vortex of elemental magic. Mastering its volatile power might grant arcane supremacy, but losing control results in catastrophic elemental surges throughout the tower.
D10=5:A caged sprite offering cryptic messages.
D10=6:A group of 1d4+4 thieves are in the area to steal something from the wizard. If they see the players, they will try to get them to help them. If the players help, they will get some magical items from the wizard as a reward, but the thieves will try to steal them from them later.
D10=7:A magical raven speaks in rhymes.
D10=8:A group of 1d4 hobbits are celebrating their latest harvest by drinking and singing. They are not happy to see you.
D10=9:Rounding corners dappled in winter’s silent predation, you find embattled spirits pacing in restive silence. They are phantoms tethered by remorse, unable to cross into peace. A council across ages gathers, looping betrayals and fractured alliances hanging spectral nooses above their necks. They give counsel for a price or drain the life-strained wisdom through touch. Navigating their hints leads into the tower’s deeper layers, but everything bargained enriches them with a shard of your strength, a bargaining chip against the next consultation’s query.
D10=10:A soft whispering can be heard from a closed book.
d100 = 3

D10=3:The remnants of a war-torn room reveal an old promise kept. Relaying a similar oath brings peace to the spirits there, unlocking a hidden path.
D10=4:A self-stirring cauldron.
D10=5:Through a flickering portal golden in hue, you find a summer garden wrapped in eternal twilight. Fireflies carrying errant sparks of wild magic flit through the blossoming boughs. But the magic here is treacherous, twisting the plants' beauty into a predatory hunger. An intricate lattice of golden leaves and ensnaring vines serves both as a maze of physical traps and as barriers. Whispered wishes tempt power-seekers to take treacherous chances. Outwit the slow-closing labyrinth or become consumed by the malignancy of its intoxicating fragrance.
D10=6:Plunged into an endless twilight grove within the tower, nine shadow druids seek to harness its unnerving darkness for their own.

D10=2:An enchanted mop is cleaning the floor on its own.
D10=3:A desk piled with papers that continually organize and disorganize themselves.

D10=6:A small waterfall trickles down a wall.
D10=7:In a room echoing with primal roars, you find seven druids who can shape-shift into powerful beasts, clashing over territory. Assisting or defeating them bestows control over this floor, but choosing sides can engender deep bonds or bitter enmities, reflecting in broader faction dynamics.

A caged raven speaks prophecies in a hoarse, ancient tongue, promising either salvation or doom. Its words are riddled with double meanings and veiled threats. Solving the raven's riddle grants temporary sanctuary in the treacherous tower, but mistaken words leave you exposed to the biting cold outside, where ghostly wyverns soar with death's silence.

At the mirror's base, a sorrowful empress made tangible by ethereal energy beseeches them, "Find the locus of power, lest all turn to ruin." The room suddenly glows brightly with spectral light as 2d6 mirror-born ethereal warriors step forth, echoing phrases about impending catastrophes and the need to reshape destiny.

D10=2:A flock of enchanted birds flies around the room in formation.

D10=5:A group of wizards are fighting with each other with swords, bows and arrows, maces, mauls, warhammers, flails, lances, pole arms, staffs, shields, and sling shots.

D10=7:The air sizzles with dangerous magic in an autumn-hued laboratory cluttered with alchemical components and forgotten potions. Shelves creak under the weight of ancient tomes, each whispering forbidden knowledge if opened. A mad alchemist's burned skeleton still clutches a flask of unstable liquid gold. Extracting such treasures promises power but risks sudden, catastrophic decay. Experimentation comes with the risk of awakening twisted homunculi that are fiercely protective and destructively intelligent. Failure means becoming part of this decaying room, a failed experiment whispering of what could have been.
D10=8:A clumsy alchemical setup bubbles away.
D10=9:The tower is magically shielded and players cannot teleport there or transport themselves through the use of magic. They must rely on magic items that allow them to teleport or teleport them from somewhere else.

D10=7:A thick, musty smell of old books fills the room.
D10=8:A group of 1d4+4 thieves are in the area to steal something from the wizard. If they see the players, they will try to get them to help them. If the players help, they will get some magical items from the wizard as a reward, but the thieves will try to steal them from them later.
D10=9:A thick haze of incense lingers in the air, making you slightly drowsy.
D10=10:An hourglass counting stars.

The decision to engage or resist shapes your destiny, with resistance triggering relentless pursuit.
D10=2:A hidden observatory reveals a cult of eight acolytes worshiping the stars, each one imbued with celestial power. Their leader, a star-touched prophet, offers glimpses of future events at the price of a piece of your soul. Engaging with the cult presents the twin dangers of gaining forbidden knowledge and losing a part of yourself.
D10=3:Mists swirl around the gatehouse at the front of the tower. The mists suddenly dissipate to reveal a small group of men in gray robes, who say, 'We're here to talk to the wizard. Have you seen him?'
D10=4:A magical mirror in the tower shows a glimpse into different planes of existence. The players may come across creatures from these other planes and have to figure out how to communicate and interact with them.
D10=5:A granite sundial that works both indoors and at night.
D10=6:At the tower’s core lies a solarium perpetually ruled by summer’s scorching heat. Shade is both refuge and danger: strange humanoid figures called Shade Stalkers haunt the darkest corners. Their predatory souls are animated by memories of ultimate betrayals. They trade protection for secrets, revealing twisted half-truths of those in your company. Can you afford their protection with treacherous salt-crusted scars upon your conscience, or dare you navigate the King's Fire on your own, risking direct conflict with the Shade Stalker's primal hunger?
D10=7:A man is selling a book of poetry. The man will complain about how nobody will buy his book of poetry and how nobody appreciates his art.
D10=8:An ancient map rearranges itself, showing different paths and landmarks each time you glance.
D10=9:A half-finished magical circle is drawn on the floor with chalk.
D10=10:A citadel of festering knowledge bears hallways resonating with perpetual mental cacophony. The tower’s own voice murmurs flirtatious suggestions, feeding paranoia and tempting despair. Artifacts of dead kings and lost queens both hold power and potential incestuous horrors magnified within these precariously intwined halls. Choices made always echo a prior ruler’s path— whether to uphold shattered oaths, summons dread spirits into quasi-lit flames, or embrace cursed authority with all its treacherous entrapments. Each item handled is another piece of lore picked up or twisted.
d100 = 26
D10=1:The wizard has taken on an apprentice as his personal servant, but he treats him no better than a slave. The apprentice will not help the adventurers.
D10=2:The air sizzles with dangerous magic in an autumn-hued laboratory cluttered with alchemical components and forgotten potions.

Extracting such treasures promises power but risks sudden, catastrophic decay. Experimentation comes with the risk of awakening twisted homunculi that are fiercely protective and destructively intelligent.

He will also say that he has been coming to this tower for years to study magic and worship Andoran.
D10=3:A golden key engraved with runes.
D10=4:A man dressed as a wizard approaches the players. He wants them to fight in an arena for him. He wants them to kill each other in a battle to the death so he can win a prize. He promises to resurrect the party afterwards. He's lying, but he's very persuasive.
D10=5:A portal appears in the center of the tower's library, leading to a different time period in history. The party must be careful not to disrupt the past or risk altering the course of history.

D10=2:Mismatched chairs that rearrange themselves periodically.
D10=3:You stumble upon a room full of strange and exotic creatures, including a dragon, a unicorn, and a phoenix.

D10=4:The players encounter a group of enchanted suits of armor, controlled by a powerful magical force. The only way to defeat them is to find and destroy the source of the magic.

If they do not answer him immediately, he will refuse to speak to them again. He will ask them if they are looking for employment. If they answer yes, he will ask them if they can carry a heavy load. If they answer yes, then he wants to give them a small box. The box is very heavy. He will ask them to deliver it and offer to pay them 1 gold coin per turn. He says that he will be waiting for them back outside the Tower in 3 turns. He will walk off whistling. If they refuse to do what he asks, he will never speak to them again and will not hire them as employees.

D10=7:Descend crumbling steps lined with scattered blossom remnants to stand beneath a moon threaded with artificial stars. A glade hosts dappled whispers, reflecting transactions of power long past. Silver-etched harpies flutter between eager terms of alliance to ivied screams of betrayal, anxious remnants of former rulers and new tyrants. Extract promising alliances from the harpies; determining their nature by discerning veiled loyalty within their musical cacophony taking life-risk. Indulge their whims for strategic advantage, balancing trust against inevitable repercussions within the tower’s confounding ethos.
D10=8:A wizard is walking down the hall with a large book under his arm. He looks very tired and confused. If players talk to him, they will learn that he has been working on a spell to conjure up a demon. He doesn't think it's working and he's frustrated.

D10=10:A broom closet exuding an earthy smell.
d100 = 30

D10=7:The adventurers stumble upon a parabolic chamber, its walls covered in cryptic symbols that pulse with rhythmic energies. As they step inside, a central plinth emanates a dark, swirling mist that coalesces into an ancient soothsayer, her voice laced with tremors of both dread and excitement. "Doom walks beside you, as does a forgotten hero," she murmurs, unveiling prophetic visions of entwined fates—a vision of three undead kings in conclave, and another showing a mage manipulating the threads of magic to rend the world asunder. These visions wax and wane, casting the room into alternating light and shadow. Before they can fully comprehend the implications, the adventurers are besieged by 2d8 shadowy wraiths, each one muttering half-crazed proclamations of doom. Should they survive, the soothsayer reveals an ancient prophecy involving a long-forgotten artifact linked to their quest, providing both hope and a grim warning about its true cost.
D10=8:The next chamber is an endless maze of illusions, walls shifting with every step. Eight illusionary guardians, crafted to deceive, drive infiltrators to madness. Dispelling these illusions unveils secrets of your surroundings, but succumbing means getting trapped in a looping nightmare.

At the center of the room, a spectral astrologer peers through a celestial scrying pool, conjuring visions of cosmic events cascading into their world— stars collapsing, realms disintegrating under sorcerous storms, and sinister figures rising to power. "The heavens tell of doom yet avertible," the astrologer intones as the visions focus on a blood-red comet approaching the moon, indicating a rare magical convergence that could empower the players or their enemies alike. With little warning, the hall is overrun by 3d4 celestial spirits, each striking with the force of a falling star and speaking in riddled prophecies.

The wizards don't know that both of their spells are actually working, but they're causing a lot of weird things to happen in their tower.
D10=5:The adventurers travel through a chamber alight with volatile arcs of electric-blue energy snaking between unstable arcane crystals. As they move cautiously, the very air shimmers and distorts, revealing flickering images of their possible futures. Each player experiences their own personal vision— a fierce battle at the gates of a besieged city, a heart-wrenching betrayal by a trusted ally, or a victorious crowning celebration. Suddenly, the visions solidify, and four shadowy figures clad in dark robes materialize, each representing a different possible future. They demand a sacrifice to avert a cataclysmic event, offering knowledge of an ancient artifact's location as the price for compliance or defiance. The adventurers must decipher if these phantom guides are genuine prophets or deceitful apparitions lying to steer their fate.

Hovering near the hourglass is a timeworn automaton, eyes glowing with the reflected visions. "Tamper not with the threads of fate," it warns, as the very floor beneath them shifts to alternate temporal states. Suddenly, fragments of cracked timelines collide, and 1d6 temporal anomalies materialize, each attacking with chaotic, unpredictable force while uttering dire auguries of impending doom.

They can rush in and kill him or try to distract him in another way.
D10=8:A man is sitting on the steps leading up to the main entrance to the tower. He is looking for work. He is willing to do any kind of work - even menial tasks.

His name is Billy Bob Joe, and he has a tattoo that says 'property of' on his right shoulder with an arrow pointing down.

Thunderstorms howl, with quicksilver strikes splitting darkened floorboards. Latent golems of storm-scarred marble sluggishly stir, animated by the same crackling fury.

At the mirror's base, a sorrowful empress made tangible by ethereal energy beseeches them, "Find the locus of power, lest all turn to ruin." The room suddenly glows brightly with spectral light as 2d6 mirror-born ethereal warriors step forth, echoing phrases about impending catastrophes and the need to reshape destiny.
