What Am I Doing Wrong 4

  It's treating 0004 as a number, so it just becomes 4. Add a letter if you want to treat it as a string (e.g. T0004). Or change the DieRoll table to be a lookup instead of a dictionary table.

  You also don't have any value to look up on table 0004. That would be fine with a weighted table like this:

  Table: 0004
  30: {5d6} cp
  30: {4d6} sp
  10: {3d6} ep
  15: {3d6} gp
  15: {1d6} pp
  

  But a lookup table is looking up a value so you need to add a roll like "Roll: 1d100". Lookups are better if you are thinking you will eventually add some modifiers to that roll. Otherwise, I think weighted tables are easier, because you don't have to worry about what all the options add up to.

  This works:

  Header: Individual Treasure by Challenge
  Prompt: Challenge Rate {0004|0510|1115|17+} 0004
  
  Table: Main
  [#{$prompt1} DieRoll]
  
  Table: DieRoll
  Type: lookup
  0004: [@0004]
  
  Table: 0004
  Type: lookup
  Roll: 1d100
  1-30: {5d6} cp
  31-60: {4d6} sp
  611-70: {3d6} ep
  71-95: {3d6} gp
  96-100: {1d6} pp
