In my tour of RPG blogs I often come across nifty and unique charts, and figured we could use a thread to highlight some of them, for interest or inspiration.
To start off, here is Box Full of Boxes' Bounty Hunter Target Generators
To start off, here is Box Full of Boxes' Bounty Hunter Target Generators
d8 | How much is the bounty worth? |
1 | A pittance, barely worth getting on the trail for. |
2-3 | Enough to be worth one's time, but also enough to bring a rival onto the scene. |
4-5 | A tidy amount, enough to finance months of decent living. There are probably two or three other hunters looking to find them as well |
6-7 | A huge score. While not enough to retire, it would be a massive boon. There will be quite a lot of competitors, perhaps five or six. |
8 | A king's ransom, probably financed by an organization, rather than an individual. A dozen or more rivals will undoubtedly be after it as well. |
d8 | What did the fugitive do? |
1 | Murder. |
2 | Theft. |
3 | Heresy. |
4 | Oath-breaking. |
5 | Sedition. |
6 | Smuggling. |
7 | Kidnapping. |
8 | Roll twice, ignoring this result if it comes up again. The fugitive committed a combination of these crimes. |
d8 | Where are they hiding or running to? |
1 | They're desperate; choose a cardinal direction, that's the direction they're fleeing to. |
2 | A member of their family, or a close friend. |
3 | They are taking their chances with the wilderness, and are hiding in the woods, a cave, or another isolated location. |
4 | The house of a noble or other powerful person. |
5 | They've taken up with a group of criminals, whether that be an organized crime syndicate, or a group of bandits. |
6 | A religious organization, claiming sanctuary. |
7 | They have taken on another identity or are living in disguise. |
8 | They aren't fleeing; they intend to kill their pursuers. |
d8 | What's special about the fugitive? |
1 | They are an important member of their community. They may have many potential allies. |
2 | They are a spellcaster of some sort. |
3 | They're innocent of the crimes they have been accused of. |
4 | They are extremely wealthy. They have more than enough money for bribes. |
5 | They are an extremely skilled warrior. |
6 | They have the favor of an eldritch creature, a minor deity, or even an outsider or fiend. |
7 | They are a member of a rival government or community. Killing or capturing them may have far-reaching consequences. |
8 | They have either a magical or technological item or some other form of enhancement that gives them an unexpected advantage. |
