Questions about this table
How can I use trade goods in a dungeon-focused campaign?
Even dungeon-heavy campaigns benefit from trade goods. Ancient storerooms might contain preserved goods that hint at what a ruined civilization valued. Smuggler tunnels could be stocked with contraband. Underground settlements need supplies, and controlling trade routes into the underdark creates political tension that drives adventures.
