| 2 | A tree with a mummified corpse peaking from it's core, a tree branch grown from the man's chest |
| 3 | A shallow grave & pinewood coffin. The coffin is empty, a burrow receeding into the depths of the earth beyond sight |
| 4 | A massive brass urn containing pile of bones and armor that must once have been a corpse. The brass armor is long degraded, what little remnants tarnished into uselessness |

Occult Occurrence
d100 |
Occult Occurrence |
|---|---|
| 1-2 | A can on a length of string trailing off into the mists. Speaking into it causes a distorted, indecipherable young girl's voice to be heard on the other end, though no one can be found at the other end |
| 3-4 | Your footsteeps make reverberating noise in the ground, as if the land were hollow |
| 5-6 | A wild-eyed stag fighting the decapitated head of another. It's screams are terrifying the deer |
| 7-8 | The player with the highest Passive Perception notices ragged sack dolls with stone eyes sitting in the trees. They won't move, and are easily destroyed. Further down the trail, they reappear, slightly more realistic, becoming duplicates of the players with leathered skin and crude replicas of their major items. Then, when seen again, major clothing replicas, hair, proper stature, etc. Eventually, when fully realistic, the first person to discover them sees one of the dolls push their replica - wearing a noose - off the treebranch, where it swings. The dolls fail to reappear again. |
| 9-10 | You come across a straw-man like creation, stuffed with human feces instead of straw, with teeth, hair, and appropriate details taken from a real person |
| 11-12 | Thick mist covers the ground, cutting off into a mirror-like swirling surface. Putting your head inside allows you to hear screams & pleas for mercy |
| 13-14 | Someone has sharpened the branches around the trail in the forest, so that the trail is surrounded by sharp points. |
| 15-16 | The shadows of the trees are humanoids writhing in silent agony |
| 17-18 | As you go to step on a puddle, a hand reaches up from it's black depths to support your weight. You reel back, and find it's gone. The hand will not reappear |
d100 |
Occult Occurrence |
|---|---|
| 19-20 | A dog with a fancy collar appears to lead the party to an area of disturbed dirt and begins to dig it up. Upon closer inspection the party finds the body of a small girl holding a leash that looks quiet similar to the dogs collar. When they turn to examine the dog, he is nowhere to be found |
| 21-22 | A hooded figure sits on stump, completely unresponsive to attempts to communicate with it. If touched or attacked, it explodes into a swarm of spiders clambering over ruined spidersilk |
| 23-24 | A Raven sits in the trees, repeating the words, "Gods, what is that?!" |
| 25-26 | A large head-sized knot in a tree resembles a human face. Wait! The eyes are real: wide, staring, terrified eyes! They look at you as you approach, flicking to each person that talks. But they cannot blink (so cannot communicate in that way), but constantly weep a watery sap |
| 27-28 | The group encounters a 50 ft. diameter Sphere of Magical Darkness, with no logical reason as to it's existence. Persons unable to see while inside the Darkness hear whispers & chattering, and receive 1d6 Slashing damage at the end of each Round. Persons able to see inside the darkness don't suffer these effects, but note nothing is attacking the others, instead the wounds manifesting onto them with no apparent source |
| 29-30 | This stretch of woods is petrified in place and time, completely silent and perfectly still. Anyone touching anything but firt or stone find it hard as steel and completely unmovable. Grass or leaves, for example, might damage them, transmuted into razor-sharp blades. There are birds and other animals in the forest, but they too are as still as statues |
| 31-32 | At the end of a Long Rest, the group find themselves floating 10 ft. in the air. Getting down is difficult, but ends the hovering effect |
| 33-34 | The next person to open their pack or other openable finds a bloody, severed head inside. Once held, it screams, and bursts into moths |
| 35-36 | The group suddenly find themselves surrounded by footprints, and notice small disturbances in their pack's organization, though nothing's been stolen. This occurs thrice more |
| 37-38 | Someone notices eyes glittering in the dark at them. Anyone with Darkvision can make out an indescerable shape. Whne light is shone towards the watcher, nothing is there |
| 39-40 | The group suddenly realizes all the background noise is gone, not even the crunch of gravel underfoot or rustle of trees remains. They can still vocalize as normal. After a moment, the area is filled with forest howls, screeches and buzzing so loud it deafens them. When able to hear again, the forest is back to normal |
| 41-42 | The forest path becomes even more narrow and overgrown. Looking down the tunnel-like trail gives the group vertigo and puts them off balance. Shadows appear to move and they begin to feel like they're just going in circles |
| 43-44 | The group hear footsteps echoing theirs, slightly behind, but the path is empty. Anything they call out is repeated back with missing syllables, as if the voice is in pain |
| 45-46 | During the party's next Long Rest, each person awakes to find a large meat hook placed carefully to dangle over their stomachs |
| 47-48 | Each time a party member attempts to light a fire on the forest floor, there is a sudden hissing and smoking from the ground immediately around them. Little red lines appear like veins in the earth before fading to blackness |
| 49-50 | The hedges and grass to the side of the trail has strange burn marks on it, almost exactly in the shape of men |
| 51-52 | Someone has sharpened the branches in this part of the forest, liable to tear and skewer unwary travellers |
| 53-54 | The trees around the group begin to whip and lash as if buffeted by strong winds, though the wind is only a faint breeze. Upon closer inspection, the shadows cast by the trees show humans writhing in silent agony |
| 55-56 | The group watches as a toad begins to tear itself apart, bodily inverting itself, expelling it's bone, before ribbiting away |
| 57-58 | The group encounters a mud idol with shrimp-like features |
| 59-60 | The trees are coated in snot-like slime |
| 61-62 | Water trickles from the heart of a rotting tree, it's contents putrid but potable if anyone drinks from it |
| 63-64 | All color is leeched from the world in this area, and staying for too long causes it to rub off on members of the group. Sunlight or the Spell Remove Curse removes this effect |
| 65-66 | The air becomes cold and humid. Touching any resulting condensation causes the skin to become numb |
| 67-68 | A random member of the group suddenly begins to sweat blood until they finish a Long Rest. Each hour of labor they undertake causes them to receive one level of Exhaustion from bloodloss |
| 69-70 | The group comes across a cottage in the woods belonging to a friendly woodsman and his wife. They provide food and shelter for the night. When the group awakes they are in the burned down ruins of the cottage with the skeletal remains of the farmer and his wife reaching desperately for them |
| 71-72 | By some trick of the eye, the forest floor seems to twist 180 degrees as it extends toward the horizon. The group has Disadvantage on Survival Checks for the next hour |
d100 |
Occult Occurrence |
|---|---|
| 73-74 | Ants begin to crawl from a nearby tree as if it's sweating blood, and they disappear into the seam at the bas eof the tree between the bark and the forest floor |
| 75-76 | A stone is thrown at the group, though it's source isn't apparent. Stones will continue to be thrown at them until they decide to ignore it |
| 77-78 | Mist forms across the forest canopy and begins to drip like wax |
| 79-80 | The group spots a fox, which glances at them. They see dozens of fat, wriggling leeches writing out from underneath it's eye lids as the fox begins to escape |
| 81-82 | "Is no fun, is no Blinsky!" tags litter the forest floor, leading toward their destination. Tags continue to appear seemingly at random as the group explore their own individual inventory |
| 83-84 | A pumpkin rolls into the group, carved with "It's in the MIST" |
| 85-86 | The group's packs begin to smoke. Opening them to find the source reveals any holy symbols they're carrying to be the cause, or if none are present, the sudden appearance of them |
| 87-88 | Dust begins to pour out of the group's shoes, endless and without cease |
| 89-90 | Fruit growing on a nearby tree begins to explode loudly, like gunshots |
| 91-92 | A random Wildlife animal appears, jumping from tree branch to treebranch. It's been skinned alive, but doesn't seem to care |
| 93-94 | The forest floor begins to bulge, as if something were burrowing under the turf like a blanket. It follows the group, but leaves off after awhile |
| 95-96 | Crows swoop overhead, dropping Turtles on them. This kills the turtles instantly |
| 97-98 | Stepping into a small stream, the individual finds it's far, far deeper than it appears, sinking fully to their pelvis in rushing water |
| 99-100 | The moon blinks at the group |

Landmarks
- The skull of a giant
- Heartfelt Disagreement
- Dolly
- Top hat petrified man
- Skeleton made of glass
- A abnormally large and oddly pale brown tree where the branches are twisted, and the leaves are a sickly saturated green color. At the base of the tree lies a blood stained alter that the roots of the tree have grown around it and now hold it in place. The base of the tree as well as the ground around the alter are permanently stained a deep red. If the tree is cut, a thick blood sap seeps out of wound. If a creature is sacrificed on the alter, the blood pools near where the roots touch the alter and are absorbed while what appear to be veins appear on the tree that go up into the branches.
- Moon's Egg - It’s a massive dome-like stone formation that shines pearlescent in the moonlight. It lays in a bare outcropping of rock and is warm to the touch.
- Carrot Forest
The Hanged Man
A crude wooden post has been hammered into= the ground by the side of the road. A skeleton has been nailed to it by the hands, and hangs down, feet barely scraping the floor. Ravens pack at the bones, perhaps hoping to uncover some remaining morsel of flesh from the remains.
This poor soul was nailed to the post after being falsely accused of witchcraft by neighbors. The Specter still lingers around the body, but cannot be roused unless someone tries to disturb the remains, at which point it reacts with unreasoning violence.
Something in the Water
A lilting refrain meets your ears, carried across the waves. Walking on the surface of the water, a dirty figure in grey rags is singing at the sky. The words are guttural and harsh.
The druid is singing a song in abyssal. Those who understand the language can decipher phrases of it, revealing it to be a distorted incantation of summoning. If allowed to finish his working, whatever he is attempting to summon does not appear. Then, he is dragged below the surface of the waves with a shriek by something unseen. He does not resurface.
MAGIC
There is a rumble, and then an eruption. Through the earth, a crazed old man in a battered wizard hat bursts with giant mole hands. “MAGIC!!” he cries, before turning into a centipede and scuttling off northwards.
The Mad Mage of Mount Baratok can turn into any animal he desires, but prefers ones that cause an impact, so he can shout MAGIC and then leave to cause trouble elsewhere.
Recognition
There is a pale, translucent hand on your shoulder. A rotting, flickering face is peering intently into yours. “Don’t I know you?” it says, with a hopeful tone.
This ghost is lost, and hoping someone can tell it who or what it is. The ghost is very gullible and believes whatever it is told. Each morning, it has to be re-informed of its ‘identity’. Failing to give it an identity causes it to become angry.
Heartfelt Disagreement
Two ghostly warriors are standing two feet apart, bickering. Moldering skeletons lie at their feet. “You go,” barks one. “No, YOU go,” responds the other wearily. It seems they may have been stuck in this rut for some time.
These two phantom warriors have been arguing for centuries about who should be the first to leave their bodies behind and pass onto the afterlife. Eventually this argument became rote, then habit, then the only thing they remembered. Neither can recall the reason for their row, just that it’s the only thing they have left.
Dolly
A ragdoll has been discarded in the mud. It looks like it’s been trodden into the dirt and forgotten.
This tiny servant (see the spell) was created by Morgantha in a moment of idleness, and given to a family who failed to pay their bills. The doll, a poorly woven burlap poppet, was built to lure the children of the family away from their parents towards the windmill. The doll, once it has been picked up, tugs and pulls (weakly) any humanoid it meets in the direction of the Old Bonegrinder.
Are You My Mummy?
Something is shuffling towards you on the trail. It’s small, no larger than a baby, with a bleached bone skull sporting a large single large eye socket. It reaches up hands plaintively, and rasps “Mama?”
This Tiny skeleton is all that remains of a deformed child left to the wolves by a heartless mother unwilling to care for it. The skeleton has wandered the outskirts of Barovia ever since, and wants only to be cared for.
Bat Man
There is a flutter of a cloak, and something emerges from the shadow of a tree. He is ragged and wearing only a thick black cape. He is also hanging upside down from a branch with a wild-eyed expression.
This druid lives in the tree with a swarm of bats he likes to think of as family. Alas, he is quite mad, and believes his true form to be that of a bat (he just hasn’t quite figured out how to transform into one yet). He mostly asks for berries or other fruit from passers-by.
Devil on a Stake
The players encounter Strahd having impaled himself on a massive tree, which he whittled himself with his claws. Though he initially plays dead, he soon scrabbles up unnaturally as he reaches behind him to push up & over the stake.
Dusk Elf
Rahadin shaves the hair off a dusk elf in the middle of the crossroads before Castle Ravenloft. At one point he knicks him, causing blood to spill through his hair, soaking the roots & streaming across the grey skin like blood on a butcher's block. Rahadin throws the hair onto the crossroads with a splat, citing it as an example to all Barovians not to betray Strahd.
