Red Event

Red - Combat Events:

These events are combat scenarios. Because you deliberately placed a combat event, these can be story-relevant combat encounters that happen while travelling, which systems that rely on random tables don’t account for. Combat events can be an opportunity to showcase the monstrous flora and fauna of your world or a great way to pick up the pace after a long section of roleplaying.

Examples:

• The party has finally caught the attention of the main antagonist, and they’ve come to meet them in the field themselves to ascertain how much of a threat the party would be by challenging them to a “friendly” duel.
• The party meets with their rivals after the party swindles them out of their money a couple of sessions back, and a fight breaks out.
• A spy for the main villain has located the party’s whereabouts. If the party doesn’t want this information to go directly to the person they are fighting against, the spy must be dispatched by any means necessary.
• The party has been noticing what looks like intricate markings on the trees. Little do they know these are the tell-tale signs of a monster that marks their territory with these signs to warn trespassers, and the party did not listen to these warnings.
