A great black pit in
Wizard City Hexcrawl. Nothing grows around it. Buildings sink into the muck, never to be seen again. Anything that falls into the void does not return.
The Bottomless Pit whispers prophecies to those that listen that are always exactly 2/3rds true. Of all the details involved in the fortune, two things will be true and one will be false.
(Which one is false will be up to you.)
Prophecies come once per person per week, and no more than two per Campaign Turn.
There’s this rather social hermit who frequents the Pit. They call him Pit Man. He makes it his business to hear every single prophecy and inform people of the Pit’s 2/3rds accuracy with a cackle and a toothy grin.
Roll 3d12.
Once for each column.

Caveat
|
1
|
On the day when the moon cries high...
|
There shall be a reckoning...
|
And refreshments shall be provided...
|
2
|
When hands on high come together...
|
A savior will emerge...
|
And it will be mildly inconvenient...
|
3
|
When winds sigh in soft notes...
|
Terrible destruction shall be nigh...
|
And you’ll look really dumb...
|
4
|
When many voices gather at the square...
|
A destiny shall be realized...
|
And nothing will come of it...
|
5
|
Surrounded by many suits...
|
A traitor shall be revealed...
|
And you won’t even notice...
|
6
|
When everything seems most dire...
|
A herald of change shall become known...
|
And the restroom will be out of order...
|
7
|
When great opposites come together...
|
A tyrant will fall...
|
But at least there’s an upside...
|
8
|
When the stars begin their dance...
|
A mighty blow shall be struck...
|
And all shall forget it in time...
|
9
|
When the thief and the jester have made themselves known...
|
A secret shall be uncovered...
|
And there will be chances for scattered showers...
|
10
|
When the bard sings a final note...
|
A weapon of great potency shall be found...
|
And your lucky numbers are 2, 7, 29, and 106...
|
11
|
When the crow caws three times...
|
A disaster shall be narrowly averted...
|
And the afterparty will be lit...
|
12
|
When the ass brays resoundingly...
|
There shall be a terrible calamity...
|
...Followed by the same thing, but worse.
