Overworld spawns

What walks the islands, and why it is there

Islands do not use the dungeon spawn pool. An island plans its own encounters: it takes a weight table from its biome, adds the bodies that turn up anywhere, adds the night table after dark, then lets any authored override replace the lot. It spends a power budget over that table across anchor points on the walkable surface — camps, really — so bodies arrive in groups rather than scattered evenly.

An island fields at most 12 bodies at once. Camps sit at least 80 m apart and gather within 24 m. The budget itself scales with island area, the run's difficulty and the island's own encounter density, and a zone with a danger multiplier pushes it higher still.

Everywhere

Three bodies ignore biome entirely and sit under every island's table, so no island feels like a single fixed encounter.

Body	Weight
Bat	0.42
Pirate	0.75
Slime	0.55

By biome

Laid over the everywhere table. A biome that names a body more heavily gets more of it.

After dark

Added to whatever the island already had once night falls — and added all day on a dead-biome island, or any island authored as haunted by day. Skeletons ride this table with the spirits: they claw out of the ground around whoever is ashore.

Body	Weight
Ghost	0.95
Skeleton	0.85
Wisp	0.78

Night runs from 0.88 to 0.18 on the day clock. Day-haunted biomes: dead. Burrowers: Crawling Hand, Centipede, Skeleton.

Islands that override the table

Island	Biome	Island-wide override	Zones with their own table
SCHOLOMANCE	dead	Bat 0.5, Ghost 0.25, Skeleton 0.1, Wisp 0.15	1
VICTORIA	temperate	—	1
WOLFWOOD	forest	—	2

Golem islands

An island flagged as a golem island throws the whole table away and fields nothing but golems: moon_island, star_island, plus any authored island with the flag set.

Pirates

Pirates arrive as a crew around a camp anchor, armed and dressed from rank tables. A crew can also be led by a captain — one of the game's bosses, arriving on their own vessel — at the island's own captain chance.

Rank	Weapons drawn from
Rank 1	Wooden Dagger, Wooden Sword, Wooden Longsword
Rank 2	Dagger, Sword, Mace, Rapier, Bow
Rank 3	Longsword, Greatsword, Cursed Dagger, Twisted Decree, Energy Longsword

Cosmetics rolled per body: rabbit_mask, sorrow_mask, prosperity_mask, valkyrie_helm. Techniques rolled per body: guard, counter, dash, tracker, feint, riposte.

Zones

An authored island can carve zones into itself. A zone with its own encounter weights replaces the island table entirely while you are inside it, and its danger multiplier raises the island's whole budget.
