Folding Tables

And in that Dungeon
There was a monster 

Wait, what Dungeon?

So, I had to come up with a good name for the table style I have been writing about lately. I started with Kitchen Table ... Dropleaf was a possibility , but I have settled on Folding Tables for now.

There are several parts to a Folding Table.

1.
The number of items is larger than the dice or die used on the table.

2.
Items on the table are eliminated or scratched off as they are encountered or used.

3.
Modifiers are applied to the roll to reflect the game state, the narrative position, where the characters are etc. 

Examples are in previous posts. The table is not a static thing, the table is not an artifact, the table is not sacrosanct. The table is mutable, the table is not the answer, the table is part of the process.
