d20 Reasons a Door Can't Be Opened

This is a system-agnostic d20 table that will work in any TTRPG. It is useful when players encounter a door and you want to come up with an interesting reason why they can't open it. Maybe it's made of magma, maybe it moves whenever someone tries to open it, maybe it's locked, or maybe it isn't even a door in the first place.

You're welcome to use and adapt this table in any project of your own, even commercial ones. If you do, please provide attribution to Hugh Lashbrooke and a link back to this page with the following text:

This table was made as a bit of fun for The DD&D Door Jamb Jam. It is available to download as a PDF in A4 and US letter sizes, as well as plain text.
