Random events whilst traveling on Paths occur on 1–in–6 per hour, or at the referees discretion. Frequency of random events in Locations can be rolled at the referee's discretion, such as if the party revisits a location, spends too much time searching an area, or you'd prefer the dice to determine what happens next.
