    A lot, actually! I am making some tables and I was doing it d100 style, which was annoying me. I like your way better. Easy to add a small sub-table, like if "4" is humanoids, I can make a 1d6 chart with possible encounters.

    This is great. I love "2 is always a dragon." I posted a while back about how I'd never been in a Dungeons & Dragons game that actually had a dragon in it.

Found frozen to death in the 1930s by Kettle Falls pioneer Oliver Knox; Upton was perched lifeless in the snow just a half-mile from his home. Shunning civilization, Upton defined the word hermit. First spotted rowing his crude log raft on Namakan, no one knows how he got there. Upton’s accent implied an English heritage but any personal inquiries brought a stony silence. Some suspected him a man fleeing the law; others saw a bizarre outcast; everyone knew he was peculiar.

Winter demanded shoes but no socks, a cast-off Mackinaw, and a trailing cap made from the leg of old underwear. He was oddly religious, and suspicious of being poisoned.
