and cool noteworthy features.

Chests, or more accurately their contents, are most adventurers’
favourite dungeon feature. Chests represent their hard earned
reward after days in the dark, exploring new terrain and
overcoming challenging foes. Therein new and shiny discoveries
await, equipping the heroes for even greater challenges.
The popularity of chests’ contents doesn’t mean a GM should
overlook the chest itself. The right chest can add a great element
of continuity or surprise to an adventure.
