PASSAGEWAY

A straight passage corridor 5-8 squares in length. If it is a new passage leading from a room or stairs there is a 25% ( 1 in 4 ) chance it is only one square wide otherwise it is two squares wide or the same as the preceding corridor.

PASSAGE DOES NOT FIT

A passage rolled may be impossible because you have reached the edge of your map or because it meets an existing feature already on the map. In such a case roll 1d6 to see what occurs:
    1: A dead end with a TRAP

    2: Stairwell. ( 1-2 ladder to secret exit on the surface, 3-6 stairs down to next level )
    3: A narrow passage to a secret door into the nearest possibly reached other passage or room on the map.
    4: A dead end
    5: Dead end with a door if there is room for a chamber on any side otherwise it is a trapdoor into a room on the next level down.

    6: A dead end with a ONE WAY teleport to a new level ( roll a Passage to arrive into )

SEARCHING AREAS FOR SECRET DOORS

Searching a passage or hall will reveal a secret door on roll of 10 on d10. If the same roll brings a 1 then there is a wandering monster - roll an Encounter ( but half the numbers ). Each zone can only be searched once. Choose the most sensible side to find the secret door. Passages behind secret doors are narrow - a single squares width. Roll on passages as normal but if the narrow passage meets another room or passage there should be another secret door which you find automatically - leading into the previously discovered area. Any door result will also be a secret door into a new room. 

Wandering Monsters.

( on a roll of 1 on d10 when searching for secret doors, treasure or having a rest etc - any action which takes a turn or more ). Also roll for wandering monsters if you return to a previously explored room or junction. When encountered as wandering monsters there will be half the numbers listed and they come from a random direction. 

Initiative. Each side rolls d6 (roll 2d6 one colour for party one for monsters)  The difference between numbers indicates amount of surprise. ie. a roll 6/1 is total surprise ambush but 3/3 is simultaneous. Monsters who gain significant initiative will come from behind.

If only one individual is encountered they should make a morale check to see if they fight or run rather than being outnumbered. The exception is for undead or if they are cornered in a room or passage with no exit. NPC reactions can be rolled when encountering adventurers who are not chaotic ( see adventurers listing in monster manual below ).
