Not every encounter begins with steel drawn. Some are strange or simply wrong.
For this challenge, create a Strange Encounter: a self-contained situation that a GM can drop directly into play. These encounters should be non-violent, driven by tension, mystery, social interaction, or difficult choices. Tone can be strange, curious, awkward, or even darkly humorous.
