*I was wondering, if I have a creature a size smaller than me grappled, can I use them as an improvised weapon that deals the damage to both on a hit?*
Also, I buy smiths tools, and look for a second adventuring party.

(RAW, no. But I'll allow that. It works a a normal improvised weapon (ie. 1d4 damage), plus is deal damage to the grappled creature equal to the damage you dealt.)
It's taken me far too long to make the tables at this point. But finally, I have something usable even if there's still room for improvement. So I have decided to put of the tables! But they aren't completely done, so just a disclaimer. So at this point you have a choice: wait a week or more for them to be finished, or play right now with usable but unfinished tables.
The main things are:
Unplaytested and unrefined. It may have typos, unbalanced encounters, or other such small mistakes.
Maps are not finished yet... So the adventure location is just something you'll have to imagine. Or you can reroll any that don't make sense without a map.
Only 19 locations, 17 encounters, 5 complications, and 20 rewards...
So if you're fine playing with those conditions, go right ahead! Otherwise feel free to wait. I'll continue to update it continuously, so I won't ever be "finished" but I'll notify you when it's more refined and then update from there.
How do we get specific magic items? For instance, Gordon wants a [Tooltip Not Found]. As this is not on the table, he has no way of getting it. Also, do we get xp for fighting the monsters, in addition to that from the rewards table?
Gordon will ask around the town to try to form a second adventuring group of at least a healer and a mage. "Anyone want to adventure in the forests? A compact group means more treasure for each of us."

(If you want specific items, you can make a request for me to add it to the table.... Otherwise I may eventually make a magic items shop that costs ore but you can request specific items. You get 1,000 xp as mentioned in the rewards section before the table. I may change it to 750 per threat or something like that... IDK)
Once again going to make a party request for a smaller group. Gordon is a grappling based tank. He needs a healer and a mage, and maybe another offense character.

During one of the times, that you (@Dragon_Heir) visit the tavern to promote your desire to join a group, a Loxodon brings you the food that you ordered. He listened in when you approached another adventurer, and while he is handing you your food, "Name is Riyphou [a conjunction of two nasal sounds that you probably can't reproduce], but my friends call me Rizo, well, most people really. Here's your order. I couldn't help to overhear that you are looking for fellow adventurers to join you exploring the surroundings. I'd let you know that I'm interested, if you have me. I can heal and stand my ground, don't let you fool that I work here, that's just a passion... and it simplifies lodging. What's your name if I may ask?"
(I'm presuming here that Rizo has been employed in the kitchen of the local tavern. He'd help cooking, cleaning, assisting whatever is needed. He knows his way with herbs, spices, some concoctions. The idea is that this employment covers meals and board and nothing else, also it's sort of a RP way to justify that next level he'd learn cooking and take the Chef feat.)

*Ok. Do you think we need one more?*
I will also go shopping for magic items. 76838. If I roll a +1 weapon, can I instead get the eldritch claw tattoo?

Hmm. I won't buy any of that. Is there a bank where I could store my gold? I don't want to lose it in the forest.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Oh, well, actually my shift just finished. If you want we can give it a try, just the three of us. It's just a forest, what could possibly go wrong?" Packing up his things, Rizo asks enthusiastically, "I really look forward to get a look at that forest. What's your names? I'm Rizo."
(For me we can give it a try with just three. I guess, if the whole thing starts going South, we can just turn tail and run for our money. How should we go about? Just roll here 1d20 for location, and 1d4 times a d20 for threats and, optionally, a d10 in case there is a complication? I'd say if we just go the three of us we skip the optional complication this time. How about this, I roll us the location and the d4 for the number of Threats and write a small flavour text how we get to the spot. Then one of you rolls one D20 for the first threat and, if you wish, you can flavour it a bit into the location. Then, after we resolve the threat, the other one of you continues with the roll for second threat, then, after that one is resolved it goes back to me and so on? Would that work for you?)
Shortly after they met at the tavern, Dorian Bellator, Gorden and Rizo have already finished their preparations for their very first expedition into the wondrous realm of the forest surrounding Dolsela. The way out of town into the forest is a road rarely traveled and many watch them leave, wondering with which stories they will return, or if they return at all. Not knowing what to expect, they keep on the main road after entering the forest as it appeared to be the safest option for their first ever journey into these woods. For all they can see, the forest appears quite normal, nothing out of the ordinary. There are trees, many of them, with birds chirping in them. Undergrowth rustles with little animals scurrying away from the disturbance caused by these three travellers. A good two hours into their journey, Rizo lifts his trunk and shouts anxiously, "I think I smell a fire!" Nervously, he looks around and points in a direction from where he thinks the smell originates. Just five minutes traversing the forest, the three find a camp site with a bonfire burning in its middle. There are tents spread across the area but they look like they have been abandoned. But why would there be a fire burning?
(Can one of you two continue with a single D20 rolled for a threat and write us a little something (no pressure, if you don't feel up to it, I volunteer, in that case just roll)? I guess at this point we can also react, discuss different approaches and, for example, if any one of you wishes to approach this situation stealthy, we can try to sort that out, too. I'd say, if no one insists on stealth, Rizo would just stumble directly into it.)
(True, but its kinda cool that you can do a lot of damage at higher levels.

I don’t mind which way we do it. Although I would like to see this fight finished so that others can go on. Or can I start another one while we wait?
Yeah, since he hasn't posted in like, 2 days, do I auto-win?
-Archie
I would say so, but I don’t know if everyone agrees
