(This table was originally made for https://dngngen.makedatanotlore.dev but has yet to be implemented)

2. roll a D6 to see which entry of the sub table you will be using.

  2. A wooden doll’s head without eyes, the hair is very realistic and soft

III.

  1. 7 black candles wrapped in a stained cloth that smells like lavender
