Read tactical narrative encounters for the common action-and-situation model.

Are there more than 280 fixed events?

The Steam store page says the game uses over 280 unique dynamic narrative encounters. This is a published count, but it does not mean every player sees the same list or that every encounter has one fixed solution. The encounter bags and actions page records the variables that can change an outcome.

How should an encounter be classified?

Use the game’s displayed encounter title or the clearest situation description, then add secondary tags only when the source supports them. Avoid guessing a category from an isolated action. Attach the quest, underworld, party leader, visible situations, and result to every record.

The underworld system and encounter consequences pages provide the surrounding context.
