Something a little different. I have recently gotten my hands on Gentle’s Dungeon Guide 2 a nice little dungeon generator for Shadowdark. However, it really can be used for just about any fantasy RPG. Using it, I was able to generate a little dungeon adventure that I am going to share here.

Game masters looking for a quick adventure can use this as a base. Players wishing to play this should give this to their game masters and stop reading now! Lest they be spoiled.

In a recent session with my kingmaker group, we all got a chance to use the Pf2e Research subsystem. I thought it would not be a good experience but was happily surprised with how enjoyable it was.

Me being me, I started to get ideas of how to use a variant of this sub system to explore a dungeon in a mapless fashion! The subsystem is very simple at its core and turning it into a mapless dungeon procedure is something I am sure others have done before me. However, here is how I would go about making a Pathfinder 2e Dungeon Exploration Subsystem.

One of the most interesting ideas that I have come across in the ttrpg scene is the idea of the mapless dungeon. The first time I heard about this more narrative form of exploration was from this video by PaladinProse. The procedure itself comes from Runehammer’s Crown and Skull system, tho it does not depend on any of the systems mechanics. This makes it possible to lift this procedure and put it in any system without issue. I later saw another implementation of this idea from the book The Perilous Wilds.
