Dungeon Neighbors

How well do the monsters and NPCs of your dungeon get along with each other? Here is a pair of tables for use when randomly (or semi-randomly) stocking dungeons to establish the relationship of dungeon neighbors or at least spark a DM's imagination.

Check room/chamber or set of rooms/chambers as appropriate to the dungeon.

What do the monsters even know about each other?

 Neighborly Knowledge
-2...Unaware
3... Rumors, only has a bare notion of neighbors presence and activities based on what others have said.
4... Aware, knows a bit about neighbor but likely lacks some significant details
5+.. Contact, informed and moderately knowledgeable about neighbor

 Roll 1d6 for a wild an unorganized section of dungeon. roll 2d6 for an organized section of dungeon.

If monsters are aware or in contact with each other check for their relation, either roll once for a relationship or roll for each side of relationship, if players discover the goblins in room 47 actually dislike the Hobgoblins in room 49 they may be able to exploit that.

3-4…    Antipathy, likely to ignore combat small chance to join interlopers

apply modifiers if desired for alignment differences or obvious power dynamic issues. No more then -2 or +2 for each such issue is recommended.
