| A 5-mile hex can be intentionally searched for lairs. Of course, not all hexes will have lairs, and it is impossible to know how many a hex contains at a given time without the use of magic. Because [[treasure types]] are used for outdoor lairs, it’s possible for a lair to be very profitable or to return nothing at all. | A 5-mile hex can be intentionally searched for lairs.

| + | - Lair check: The DM rolls a d20, with a 1-7 indicating a lair is found (if one exists, see DM's note at bottom of page). | ||
| + | - If flying, two checks are made instead of one. (The DM will resolve one roll and then the other. If the party decides to stop lair hunting after the first roll is resolved, then the second roll is discarded.) | ||

| + | - Random encounter check: A random encounter check is made for the hex. Random encounter checks are made every time the party spends the MP to lair hunt, rather than at the normal times defined by DMG 47. These too can result in a lair via the monster’s % In Lair chance. | ||
