6. MANIFESTATIONS OF THE LABYRINTH
The Labyrinth manifests during Exploration or when the fiction demands it.
6.1 The Master Spawn Table
Roll 1D10 (Unmodified). The Master Table determines the category of the manifestation.
The Weighted Category Rule: The Labyrinth actively resists you. If your Discord Modifier is positive (+1 or +2), the ENEMY bracket expands:
- At +1 Discord: ENEMY becomes 1 – 5 (Overwrites a 5).
- At +2 Discord: ENEMY becomes 1 – 6 (Overwrites 5 and 6).
| Roll | Outcome | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – 4 | ENEMY | Hostile manifestation. (Expands at High Discord) |
| 5 – 6 | EVENT | Environmental shift. (See CONFLICT) |
| 7 – 8 | NPC | Neutral or social. (See SETTING) |
| 9 – 10 | DISCOVERY | Loot or resources. (See SURVIVAL) |
6.2 Result Definitions
- Enemy: Immediate Clash. Apply Discord Modifier to Sub-Table A (Rule 7).
- Event: A Hazard or Opportunity manifests. Apply Discord Modifier to Sub-Table B (Rule 7).
- NPC: Neutral or social encounter. Apply Discord Modifier to Sub-Table C (Rule 9).
- Discovery: Loot or resources. Apply Discord Modifier to Sub-Table D (Rule 8).
6.3 Timing and Frequency of Rolls
Do not roll unless mandated by Exploration or significant narrative failure. Over-rolling dilutes the tension of the Discord.
