Because I can't stop tinkering with AI, I asked it to "Write a random OSR RPG table in the style of the d4 Caltrops blog". Oh boy!
d20: Dungeon Hazards
- A pit filled with venomous snakes
- A room full of acidic fog
- A room with a magical trap that teleports the party to another plane
- A hidden door that leads to a room full of giant spiders
- A false floor that drops the party into a lake of lava
- A room with a magical force field that drains the life force of anyone who passes through it
- A room full of bone-chilling cold that damages anyone who stays in it for too long
- A room that is full of illusions that can only be dispelled with a magical word
- A room full of magical illusions that can fool the party into taking the wrong path
- A room with a magical portal that transports the party to a random location
- A room with an ancient magical construct that can animate to attack the party
- A room with a powerful magical artifact that can turn the party into statues
- A room with a powerful magical creature that can cast a powerful spell to trap the party
- An area with a powerful magical force that can warp time and space
- A room full of undead creatures that can drain life force from the living
- A room with a magical fountain that can grant wishes, but has a price
- A powerful magical item that can grant wishes, but has a powerful curse attached to it
- An area with powerful magical beasts that can turn the party into animals
- A room with a magical pool that can grant visions of the future
- A powerful magical artifact that can grant any wish, but at a cost
Hah! Generic dross, admittedly, and I think d4 Caltrops is safe for a good while yet, but it's pretty amazing that, from such a basic prompt, the AI completely "understands" what it's being asked to do.
Let's try just again:
d20 Things Found in a Strange Ancient Temple
- Strange symbols carved into the walls
- A massive statue depicting an unknown god
- An altar dedicated to a forgotten deity
- A hidden chamber beneath the floor
- A pool of bubbling acid
- Piles of yellowed bones
- An ancient tome filled with secrets
- A secret door leading to another area
- A giant stone golem
- A strange device of unknown origin
- An ornate chest filled with treasure
- A magical fountain that can grant wishes
- A cursed relic that brings misfortune
- A magical weapon of great power
- A powerful magical artifact
- A strange creature lurking in the shadows
- An altar of sacrifice
- An arcane circle of power
- A powerful magical trap
- A strange creature imprisoned in an enchanted cage
Once more for luck?
