d100 Cryptic Magical Artifact or Intelligent Weapon Namer or Starship Namer

 Roll a d100 for each column to get a name, or a prompt. If you can't make it make sense, choose a name, or re-roll for a column that frustrates you.

This was inspired by the names of Forerunner AI in Halo, so it could also be used to name beings (angels, devils, warforged, etc.). The Culture series ship names were also an influence. 

For those looking at the meaning of certain pattern names in column two, this link might be helpful: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/82/90/75/829075336edff1ec2a43dd1feaa0dc5d.jpg

Spell Research: A Hexflower

 As part of an RPG Discord group's writing prompt, I wrote a hexflower for spell research.  It's a draft, but if there's any interest, I'll turn it into something a little more formal and post it on Itch.io or DrivethruRPG. Here's the link to the Google Doc, for now: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m-EiGPc3etQd7-xIu7qCll10Fd9pJx-6juqWyyLLGOM/edit?usp=sharing Here's the raw images, as a teaser: Spell Research Hexflower OSR Spell Research Navigation Hex d20 Spell Research Navigation Hex

d100 Ways to End a Curse

Goal : Make curses more interesting, especially if one of these death curses applies. Rational : Casters of curses now have to decide between making the curse harder to remove with remove curse and making it harder to remove by allowing fewer end conditions for the curse, which I feel gives an interesting choice. The caster casting remove curse has an interesting choice in determining whether to try to force the removal of the curse, or try to fulfill one of the curse removal conditions. Why use this list? Because remove curse on it's own is boring. My untested take on this: Someone casting a curse has an ending condition applied at random. They can choose to have more than one ending condition. When any ending condition of a curse is satisfied, the curse is lifted. More conditions makes it harder to remove the curse with a remove curse spell. Curses that have at least one of these end conditions should not be automatically cured by simply casting remove curse . Instead, h

Empedocles' Feast Framework

Link to Google Doc version to this draft: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dNOAFp1uXey31at2_Br0OKOQd3UmUA3jdXEEA6GM5z8/edit?usp=sharing This was prompted as part of the March 2024 Blog Carnival, with a topic of " Feasts, Foods, & Fancy Drink, oh my! " Edit: Here's the month end round up of this prompt . Tables to generate feasts in my Tressagros setting, which is vaguely reminiscent of the Mediterranean coast in the late Roman Empire.  Gods honored are noted in parentheses. The tables are broken into four sections:  who and what the feast is for, what happens, intentionally or not, what’s served (meager hosts might not have all courses, wealthier hosts provide more options), and what does one’s behavior earn them. The Event Who Throws the Feast?  1d6L (1d6L: roll two dice, usee the lower) A freehold farmer who has benefited from the PC’s actions. A merchant the PCs frequently supply or purchase from. A local priest or lay religious officer A local mayor or council
