Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Monster Clustering

A few years ago I looked at this, have found it again, so here’s a start.

Not, many mess categories as you know, but here’s a plot from 2 that will fit on a screen.

Vermin and plants, some animals and common humanoids and your garden variety monstrous humanoids when you lump it at this very joined together level.

Kmodes method, just have to find where I put that part.

Skeleagle

One of the strange monsters haunting the Mokuy skies. Likes the high places, but anywhere with bones to snack on.

Something like skeleton stats and eagle flight. Turn as skeletons.

AC,7,MV,12, Fl 30,HD,1-1,Thac0,20,3,NA,DM,1d4/1d4/1d4,SA,Special,SD,Special,SZ,M (4-6'),ML,,XP,100

1/2 damage from piercing weapons, etc.

The 1000 Dungeon Project

Thanks to the AD&D Random Dungeon Generator I wrote https://github.com/bluetyson/ADnD1e-Random-Dungeon-Generator, I can parallelise, so doing this only takes less than a minute.

The basic random walk theory these talk is ‘Ahead’ is the y positive direction and always follow exits – e.g. stairs down (and can go up sometimes too).

The first 1000 dungeons I have done with 10 Periodic Checks as the DMG table calls them. e.g. a roll on the main table.

Here’s a summary :-

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kpZhtAO4cLtyLnh6bCCRVdigOL8jbjAFJ6CFyEZ2cX8/edit?usp=sharing

Here you can have the situation if you find an empy room it can have secret doors – beyond which are more rooms, which can have secret doors if empty – I have it so it follows that stack down, then goes back – e.g. Rooms are the interesting thing.

So with 10 checks, a couple of rooms is likely.

In fact, here are the medians for this batch of 1000:

monster_xp                            0.0
wm_xp                                 0.0

z                                     1.0

Median room size is 13 by 16 – y dimensions are likely to be bigger.

So if we call a median room an exemplar, let’s have a look:

Selecting all the 13 by 16 the medians:

Periodic Checks                      10.0

So these are therefore likely to have an exit to level 2 – [z = 2]

AD&D 1e Random Dungeon Generator Binder

So you can run this in a browser:

https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/bluetyson/ADnD1e-Random-Dungeon-Generator/HEAD

click the above to fire up a web container environment that lets you run this in your browser
you get jupyterlab, just click on the terminal link at the lower left and then type ‘python dungeon.py 1’ [or however many rolls as you like] and the files created will also be in the main directory, one for each dungeon level.
