So officially when you cast a conjure x spell the DM is supposed to pick the creatures summoned as you can see here (https://media.wizards.com/2015/downloads/dnd/SA_Compendium_1.03.pdf).
"Specific Spells
When you cast a spell like conjure woodland beings, does the spellcaster or the DM choose the creatures that are conjured? A number of spells in the game let you sum- mon creatures. Conjure animals, conjure celestial, conjure minor elementals, and conjure woodland beings are just a few examples.
Some spells of this sort specify that the spellcaster chooses the creature conjured. For example, nd familiar gives the caster a list of animals to choose from.
Other spells of this sort let the spellcaster choose from among several broad options. For example, conjure minor elementals o ers four options. Here are the rst two:
• One elemental of challenge rating 2 or lower
• Two elementals of challenge rating 1 or lower
The design intent for options like these is that the spell- caster chooses one of them, and then the DM decides what creatures appear that t the chosen option. For example,
if you pick the second option, the DM chooses the two ele- mentals that have a challenge rating of 1 or lower.
A spellcaster can certainly express a preference for what creatures shows up, but it’s up to the DM to determine if they do. The DM will often choose creatures that are ap- propriate for the campaign and that will be fun to introduce in a scene."
So my question is: are there some tables somewhere that can help me do this by rolling a d100 or something similar?
