OSE Encounter Activities - Rat

Rats are a staple set dressing. I’ll place the odd scurrying rodent as a bit of Dungeon flavor every few turns sometimes just to keep everyone on their toes (gives me something to do when the Wandering Monster dice are being frustratingly fickle), and who can forget the hackneyed hook of “The Tavern Keeper saw some Big Rats in the cellar” for a newly assembled party to investigate?

Here are three d30 tables, one that applies agnostically to All Rats, and one each for the two specific types.

I’d like to do a table of Deadly Disease to conjugate with these, even if that’s usually the fault of their hitchhiking Fleas 😊.
