2d10

2d10

Ten seconds to react to the ghoul attack
Nine inch dagger drawn in her right hand
Eight second fuse on the smoke bomb in her left
Seven seconds of especially dense smoke
Six stabs to the first feral foe
Five stabs to the smaller second screamer
Four seconds used to kill the first
Three seconds for the second; smoke dissipates
Two enemies left
One goal on what's left of their minds

One new world through the wide-opened
Two eyes in awe of the wonder before him
Three light pieces of luggage leave the boat with him
Four volumes of advanced restorative magic spells
Five pouches of powdered herbs for healing without magic
Six yards of bandage wrap
Seven scrolls for warding spells
Eight-sided mace for more aggressive actions

His story continues...

One battle left behind
Two weeks time until another must be found
Three meals a day can be afforded for fourteen days
Four fewer days can be afforded should he choose to sleep indoors
Five pounds of gold coins can only take him so far
Six platinum coins thus far saved for a home of his own
Seven years he's taken jobs wherever he can find them
Eight times out of ten he doesn't have to kill anyone

One man speaks for the rest
Two options he gives to her
Three of them ready to escort her right back out of town
Four move into position; surrounding her
Five carry crossbows; ready to unleash the second option
Six windows can be seen open with onlookers transfixed
Seven swift words spoken strictly with necessary volume
Eight swords made of diamond-dense and diamond-sharp ice
     float around her with lethal intent

Her story continues...

2d8

One battle finished without a single wound
Two arrows in condition for recovery and reuse
Three hours pass without further conflict
Four ghouls now approach; surrounding her for the feast
Five sets of teeth between them
Six eyes staring at their next meal
Seven years ago, the first ghouls appeared
Eight dozen decades they hid away
     in the ruins of a once benevolent kingdom

Her story continues...

5d6

One giant body of water
Two captains, a brother and sister
Three masts thrice as tall than his childhood home
Four sides to the impressive vessel
Five days straight of sea sickness
Six days remaining until the dock;
     onward to the continent across the sea

His story continues...

4d6

One army won the battle
Two armies of soldiers lost the war
Three giant piles of burning bodies
Four dozen yards away from the breech in the West Wall
Five miles high, the smoke and smell rise
Six times now he sold his blade to the winning side
