Urban Encounters
Urban encounters for creatures encountered within the bounds of a settlement — a town, city, or fortified outpost. Humanoids dominate the pool; wilderness intrusions are sparse because most don't survive long inside city walls.
Roll the Urban Type Table first, then the matching creature table below.
Some results on the Special creature table route to the matching subtable for the specific creature.
See Type Tables for the wilderness terrain and other distinct environments.
