Davids, M: Book of Random Tables

Play Dungeons and Dragons or Pathfinder RPG? Cut down DM prep time with D100 and D20 random tables.

The Books of Random Tables continue to grow with “Festivals & Fairs” to enhance fantasy role-playing game campaigns. Dungeon masters seeking to add uniqueness and creativity to their sessions can find it here.

As always DMs and GMs can use these random tables in a number of ways. They can be used in preparation for sessions. They can be used during sessions with the game master or the players rolling on them.

The first section of the tables is Items for Sale. In that section are Drinks, Foods, Herbs, Leather Goods, Medicines and Remedies, Miscellaneous Goods, Odd Items, Pottery and Ceramics, Textiles and Fabrics, Toys, and Woven Goods.

The following section is called People. This includes detailed descriptions of Fortune-tellers, Minstrels, Street Performers, and Workers.

Festival Names comes next and is simply a list of names for festivals and fairs.

Conspiracies & Encounters is the section of tables meant to add conflict and entanglements to the sessions. Use these tables to give players something to sink their teeth into.

The last section is Games, Prizes, & Attractions. Gathered here is a collection of tables consisting of Eating Contests, Games, Magical Carousel Mounts, Prizes, Theatrical Performances, Tournaments, and Unique Attractions.

With these tables, dungeon masters have options to give their campaigns lively festivals and fairs. Grab some parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, and have a great day at the fair.
