Random Encounters¶

Things that happen as you move through the world
Random Encounters

As you move between locations, you may stumble into
random events — a drunk patron in a tavern, a trap
in a dungeon, bandits on a forest road, or a hidden
cache of coins behind loose stones.

Encounter frequency varies by area:
  Dungeons & wilderness   More frequent, more dangerous
  Towns & temples         Less frequent, mostly flavor

Some encounters involve skill checks:
  Perception   Spot hidden things, detect pickpockets
  Agility      Dodge traps, avoid hazards
  Strength     Feats of brute force
  Intelligence Decipher inscriptions, identify things

There is a cooldown between encounters at the same
location, so you won't be overwhelmed. Encounters
don't trigger during combat or the dream tutorial.
