I'm about take my first turn GMing for our group and had spent more than a few hours bookmarking resources for use. One of the resources I had open, but not yet bookmarked, I lost on a reboot and have spent WEEKS looking for it again and can't find it.
It was a simple, but oh so perfect, random encounter generator that used two rolls.
The first roll was the creature the party would encounter but, what I LOVED about it was, there was a second table that gave the REASON the party had encountered the group - i.e. roll one might determine the party had run into a group of goblins, and roll 2 might say that they were themselves being chased by some large creature (re-roll to determine the large creature chasing them), or that they were a hunting party or a scout party for a (roll some die for size) larger war party behind them.
I simply can't find the table again (I've even, I believe, re-read every Santicore page to check there) and, while I know I _could_ recreate it, the table was just oh-so-perfect.
Anyone have links to such a table as, alas, I've lost my treasure.
