A page with a D&D-style random encounter table sits on a wooden table, with a green d12 showing a "9" sitting on top of it. The table is labeled for Parking Lot encounters, and has 12 items on the list. The rolled 9 indicates a wyvern will be encountered in the parking lot. Other options include an abandoned shopping cart full of treasure, teenagers doing skateboard tricks, gremlins sabotaging cars, a seductive penanggalan, and 1d6 hobgoblin fighters.

Leslie Knope from "Parks and Recreation" sits in her office looking competent and upbeat. She is a blonde woman in a sharp grey suit and a red shirt, her hands folded in front of her on the desk.

A well-dressed man wearing brown shoes, khaki chinos, a blue buttoned up shirt, and a navy blazer. He stands outside on a sunny day. He looks good, but if he only owned several versions of this same outfit, he's probably be described as "boring."

An arm in a green rubber glove holds a bottle of cleaner with arcane runes for a label, in front of a puddle of tar-like black sludge on a stone floor. Hopefully it gets that mess out!

An evil looking castle of dark stone with many spires castle up on an impossibly steep spire of rock in the middle of the mountains. It's Maleficent's castle from Disney's "Sleeping Beauty." Truly an icon of castles which are dark, isolated and full of wicked magic.
