Literally me

I've done rolling for random encounters every 10 IRL minutes previously to good success. A timer with a ticking count down at the end would be fun. I'm running a timey-wimey/clock themed one shot soon and that could make for a good gimmick.

Absolutely, do it. Side based initiative is quick - pacey and efficient.

Deeply useful post. I feel Hissy/Whispery is my go-to voice.

They'd know something different was hunting them, mixing a little curiousity with fear. It would clearly demarcate a beast's territory and would really freak the players out when they see two or more Hunting Dice being rolled at the same time! 2/2

Hey thanks. Cool idea of the Hunting Die being used for individual beasts stalking their territory on a hex map. You could use coloured hunting dice for each cryptid (brown for Bigfoot, red-white swirled for the skull-golem, etc). That would help players on a meta level in lots of different ways 1/2

Will do, but beware, I'm very slow.

I really like this, it might even have solved my religion generation struggles. I feel inspired to write something 🤔

Congratulations, I'm in a similar position, though my trajectory is more likely 100,000 in the next week or so.
