I’m participating in the Wampus County summer contest; hurry it’s almost over. Here’s my entry.
An Arrival Entirely Unexpected
With the bridge washed out, Welliver Q. Rumpscullion and Miss Lulubelle Harch find themselves stranded in a wayside inn. An odd assortment of travelers slowly gather over the course of a three day deluge. Drying by the fireside, they each exchange tales. Mr. Rumpscullion excuses himself to the corner, tutting and muttering at each outlandish tale.

For each visitor that arrives, roll a d20 once for each column. Give them a name. And figure out what’s up.
