100 Encounters for Fantasy Rivers (Barbaric!)

This supplement has 100 different encounters that can be used to enliven a river journey, or for characters to experience when they are near a river. Some are best suited for those on boats, whilst others work for any form of travel, including travelling beside or across the river. They may be used as a source of background events, danger or potential adventure hooks.

Here are some sample results:

On a rock next to the river is a large bear (Bear, of the normal brown variety) that is fishing in the water. It will ignore anyone unless approached or attacked.

On top of a cliff overlooking the river is a wooden lift, with a basket on a rope dangling below it (the lift is functional, but can only be operated from the top).

Perched on top of a small bluff overlooking a bend in the river is a watchtower. It appears (throw Lore 6+) to be currently occupied and in good condition and soldiers can be seen on the battlements.

Pieces of wood float down the river on the surface. Examining them (throw Lore 6+) shows that they seem to be from the shattered hull of a boat.

Reeds fill a small area that has been scooped out of one of the river's banks. By the looks of it (throw Lore 6+), the reeds have been recently harvested.

The supplement is for use with Barbaric! and has 9 pages with being the front cover, one the front matter, half is ads and one the Open Game License.
