Review & Commentary On 100 Signs of Prior Dungeon Explorers (C&C) By Adrian Kennelly For Castles & Crusades rpg

 "Characters are not necessarily the only people to ever visit a dungeon and they may not be the first. Others could have passed through before them, though they may not have ever returned. This supplement has 100 different signs that others have been through an area first, from possibly looted treasure to signs of battle, that can be used to decorate a dungeon."

Here are some sample results:

• Books have been pulled from shelves and torn apart, as if someone was looking for something hidden in one (a CL 8 Intelligence check will find a book that appears to have something hidden in its spine).
• Bricks have been removed from the walls in what look like (CL 2 Intelligence check) random places. Nothing special is behind any of the holes.
• Chainmail armour lies in a discarded pile. If examined, the armour proves to have been melted in spots, possibly by a very strong acid. Damage to the fastenings suggest the owner removed it in a hurry (a CL 1 Intelligence check confirms the chainmail is beyond repair).
• Chalk markings are on a number of walls, near to doors and junctions. The markings presumably mean something, but it cannot be discerned what.
• Chalk tally marks have been drawn on one wall. The marks are in groups of five, and the total is 47."
