Dungeon 001: Goblin Cave

 Finding myself without the time or inclination to play through these dungeons, I'm just going to post them - maybe someone will get to use them! You're on your own for monster stats, though, as I wouldn't want to repost published content.

Wandering monsters

Odds are 9 or less on 3d. Note that combat with the goblins is pretty much all or nothing, so these represent local fauna popping into the cave after the battle to see what all the fuss is about, or otherwise vermin that could plausibly be living on the periphery of the goblins' encampment. The one exception is a goblin patrol - they've just come back!
