Castle Oldskull: Chaotic Descriptor Table (d20)
 |
An infinite array of fantasy possibilities...
Endless monsters¸ treasures¸ and mysteries at your fingertips.
What will you dream¸ how creative can you be¸
When you're handed the keys to the Oldskull imagination engine?
Is it possible to distill the entire world design creative process into a single essential volume? Perhaps¸ and perhaps not. If it can be done¸ this is the book that is up to the task!
This is the D10000 Chaotic Descriptor Table¸ a deluxe version of one of my favorite and most popular idea generation systems. The "Chaotic" system has proven to be popular over the years with Game Masters¸ solo gamers¸ storytellers¸ and game designers alike. As featured in the Oldskull Adventure Generator and the Classic Dungeon Design Guide series¸ the Chaotic Descriptor Table offers an array of 1¸000 strange adjectives (Deathly¸ Bloodstone¸ Phantasmagorian¸ Shivering¸ etc.) that can be used to give unique life to generic ideas such as dungeon rooms¸ monsters¸ characters¸ treasures¸ and plot hooks. Whatever you can imagine¸ the Chaotic system can enhance. It does not replace your creativity¸ it magnifies it and sets an unexpected direction for your efforts.
But where the former system only had 1¸000 entries¸ this one has been expanded to a full 10¸000 entries that you can roll on 1D10000 to come up with even more random mayhem! Additional features include named gods and goddesses¸ character names¸ a massive NPC personality generation array¸ and of course thousands of new adjectives. This supplement also includes a detailed chapter of examples¸ the Chaotic table itself (data covering nearly 100 pages)¸ and a bonus Excel generator for rapid results. These tools are fully compatible with the Oldskull Dungeon Tools¸ the Dungeon Design Guides¸ the Game World Generator¸ and all of the other supplements offered by Kent David Kelly and Wonderland Imprints¸ Only the Finest Works of Fantasy.
Other supplements are recommended for maximum use¸ but none are necessary. Have fun!
