Rolled: 1, 1, 2
About a foot across, rather dirty water, is a portal.
Out behind the tavern this puddle forms just a few feet away from one of the back corners of the building. It appears even after moderate rain. The surface is often clouded with bits of fat that must leak or have leaked here somehow, connected to the food prepared here.
Reaching a hand or head through will have them poking up from a similar puddle in a fluorescent-colored world populated by talking prey animals.

Rolled 4, 3, 3. You describe it! very large, many things floating in water, Reflects events other than the present ones More of a pond than a puddle, it is about 25 feet in diameter and there are many things floating in the water, but never the same things from one time to another. It appears at random intervals ranging from 4-6 times in a day for an hour each time, to once sometime in a month for several hours at one time. The images you see in the water range from giant creatures that no one has ever seen with massive ferns reflected in the water to giant buildings, manicured lawns and people dressed strangely. Some people have entered the water and they appear in the shoreline reflection for a little while and then for one reason or another leave the shoreline, but none has ever returned. |

Now, that is a puddle! Nice. mao, PD just did what I was suggesting. You were away when I started working this way. Make a generator (a set of tables), roll, then riff on your results. So I did one, then rolled again and left it for someone else to do the riffing (PD just did it). Feel free to do that one on your own, or actually roll the dice and tell us what you come up with. |

You see a bright light shining in a heavily shadowed alley, As you get closer, the light gets very intense ,going directly up.. Closer it id a puddle about a foot and you see it is the sun. if you stick your head into the beam, you see a reflection of you and the alley as if it was not in shadow. It is ordinary water but it is very deep and is in fact a dungeon entrance. hengest |
