D&D Missions System

Want a system for getting magic items over a time skip? This provides a great system where players can use a time skip or week off-screen to try for a magic item via "missions".

Not particularly optimized for high-level play, but it worked well for my party of level 8-10, but feel free to adjust values as needed!

Basic use:

1) The top row of tables is for calculating the DC check.

2) The table on the second row is for mission type (what kind of check). Combo checks just mean you roll two different checks and average the result. Players can also opt to choose an Alternative (roll a d4 on the Optional table and reference the Alternate missions)

3) The pink/purple table provides extra effects on certain rolls, if multiple players work together on a mission, etc.

4) The bottom boxes display how you interpret the results of a roll. Even if a player failed the check, they may still get the item, just with some detrimental properties. I recommend referencing the official DM's Guide for the best balance with those.
