This publication contains two of the 21 system-free encounter tables for general and specific areas, 14 nation-based and seven terrain-based, that appear in the popular and Platinum-bestselling Swords of Kos Fantasy Campaign Setting. All of these tables can be used either individually or in conjunction with each another, and within the context of the Kos campaign setting or as part of any other appropriate milieu. 

This setting is a universal swords-and-sorcery milieu that has deliberately been designed to be system-free and compatible with any set of role-playing game rules suitable for ancient, medieval, or fantasy venues. It is especially suitable for games using the 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons, OGL/d20, Pathfinder, “Basic” Dungeons & Dragons and Labyrinth Lord retroclone, and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons rules. The Swords of Kos Fantasy Campaign Setting is also fully supported by the d-Infinity Online game magazine, which contains free bonus content, crunch material for a number of game systems, fiction, and other resources associated with it.

We produced this premium free extract of Encounters to give people a sense for what it contains and help introduce the Kos campaign setting to those as-yet unfamiliar with it. This publication contains:
