What it is about

I plan to add more of these every now and then, so be sure to follow me here on Itch for updates. A whole bunch of completely unconnected but hopefully useful tables that you can roll dice against to "generate" content for RPGs. Comes in "sets", where a single document covers 1 "thing", and has 6 tables, each of 6 items. The idea being you roll a die once for each table, 6 rolls in total, giving you 6 sentences/ideas/concepts that come together to form one cohesive whole for given subject matter. Don't like a specific bit of a thing you've rolled up? Don't use it! The tables are designed to inspire and spark ideas (hence the name) as much as actually provide concrete content. "Features" (if you can call them that): No "stats" or numbers of any kind. The "output" of any set of 6 tables is effectively a single paragraph of English text. Cohesive/tight enough to be useful, loose/generic enough to apply to lots of different settings and universes. Each of the 6 tables for any given set is deliberately designed to be "optional". That is, none of the tables for any subject depend on any of the other tables. You don't need a specific bit for the subject you're rolling up? No sweat, don't use it. Each set of tables is available as either a PDF, or just save the image directly from the Itch screenshots.
