#DICEMBER 2021, Part I

 Trying my hand at some #Dicetember 2021 tables. d6 tables - easy peasy.

1: Ammo - What is up with this magical ammo?

  1. Glowing: these arrows glow like a magnesium flare when shot off and for another d6 turns after they hit.
  2. Chaotic: 50% chance it hits a random target within 20' of the original target, but damage is always maximum.
  3. Splintering: The arrow splinters - each point of damage hits a different random target within 10' of the original target (including the original target).
  4. Multiplying: Each morning there are 1d6 more arrows than the night before, up the maximum quiver size of 20. In BXDH/Sorrow terms, the die type will increase.
  5. Piercing: After hitting the first target, a second target behind the first is also hit (roll for it) and the damage is half of the first damage rolled.
  6. Screaming: These make a god-awful racket when fired - targets struck must make a Fear Save (or spells if that is your thing) or run off, also screaming, for 1d6 rounds.

2: Ice - How thick is this ice I'm standing on?

  1. Paper-thin: Dex Check/Save vs. Wands to jump out of the way or fall through!
  2. Window Pane: Move slowly and spread your weight ... or else ...
  3. Beefy: Thick enough for some ice fishing (if you have an auger)
  4. Solid: It is freakishly clear and as thick as the story of a building
  5. Glacial: It is a glacier ... likely has a lot of ice caves, caves of monsters.
  6. Planar: You stand upon the precipice of the elemental plane of ice, it isn't infinite, right?
3: Child - What are they hiding behind their back?

  1. A bunny: 1 in 4 it is dead, otherwise 50/50 it is a happy pet or feral beastie
  2. A knife: dripping with fresh blood!  what did they do ... or do they plan to do?
  3. A grubby doll: looks disturbingly like one of the PCs (of course)
  4. A bag of marbles: normal, unless they throw them on the ground then run away when their older angry sibling wanders in with a club
  5. A deck of cards: want to play a game? No? How about a trick then?
  6. A severed head: an old one, eyes and mouth sewn up, borrowed from their grandmama

4: Rage - how does it manifest itself?
  1. Screaming, yelling, and a general carrying on
  2. Silent seething and withering glares
  3. Passive aggressive action and microagressions
  4. Uncontrollable, destructive violence
  5. Complete and total vengeance, even if it takes years
  6. Double down and don't give up, even if you are obviously screwed/wrong
5: Blade - what is the freaky shape is this sword?
  1. Oversized crescent moon
  2. Grasping withered claw
  3. A circle within a circle
  4. Dozens of overlapping scales 
  5. Silhouette of a sexy warrior
  6. A twisted spiral with some very sharp dangly bits
6: Shame - what is the dark secret they are hiding
  1. Murdered someone close and feels terrible guilty about not being caught
  2. Lied about their prowess and skill, this caused their family to fall apart
  3. They grew up poor/rich and have been lying about too long to come clean
  4. Ate the last piece of cake at the wedding, making the groom cry
  5. Blamed their sibling for a vile act which they committed
  6. Worked for a foul organization for far too long, did terrible things
7: Deamon - what does it want from you
  1. Just little memory - one you won't miss. See? You don't even remember what is lost.
  2. One small cup, brimming with the tears of children 
  3. A saucer of milk from a goat belonging to a farmer that does NOT like you
  4. Three hairs from the braid of Princess Alora (whoever that is)
  5. A pickle. and make it a good one. nice and crunchy. better be plenty dill, too.
  6. Just stay inside your room tonight. No matter what you hear. Shhhh ... take a little nap
