Example Scene

Based on the dice rolls,  a scene might look like this:

The party pushes through the door of **Raven's Eye Tavern** (roll 37). The place is dimly lit and smells of wood smoke. At the bar, **a grizzled old ranger** sits hunched over a mug, his eyes scanning the room for danger (roll 10). In the corner, **a cloaked figure murmurs incantations into a crystal ball**, casting strange shadows (roll 72). The barkeep slides over mugs of **Dragon's Breath Draught** (roll 12), warning them "it's got a kick." Between sips, they overhear a miner at the next table: **"A fearsome dragon has taken up residence in the mountains to the west—they say its hoard is worth a king's ransom"** (roll 39). Before they can ask more, **a haggard traveler limps through the door**, leaning on a worn staff, clothes torn and dirty (roll 19). He collapses into a chair, gasping: "It's real. I saw it. The dragon." The cloaked figure looks up from his crystal ball and meets the party's eyes. "I was wondering when you'd arrive."
