Star Wars Generators

Star Wars Religion Generator

This should get you a religion name and a few details that seem appropriate for a Star Wars game. Note that most of the things I used for this came from existing cults and faiths in Star Wars media, so you might get something that already exists.

The tables in this one are mostly modified from the ones in the Doctor Who RPG by Cubicle 7.

 

If you have any suggestions for additions or modification, feel free to comment.

Tinkers

A table and some rules I use for my 5e setting, inspired largely by the tinkers in the Kingkiller Chronicles, as well as something I saw on the excellent Signs in the Wilderness blog.

Tinkers

“A gold piece, a silver piece, and a copper piece”

“A tinker’s advice pays kindness twice”

A Tinker’s Debt Is Always Paid

Once for any simple trade. A character who trades with a tinker will generally find some use for the items they received, often more than they expected. (Tinkers have a knack for offering things PCs will need for some upcoming challenge in the adventure).

Twice for freely given aid. Aid in return, such as tips or directions; additionally, all rolls against the character have disadvantage for a while (DM’s judgement).

Thrice for any insult made. All rolls against the character have advantage for a while (DM’s judgement, dependent on the severity of such insult; generally, I wouldn’t recommend more than one encounter.).

Also, if a tinker offers a bargain that the character doesn’t accept, always find a reason for them to need the thing they could have gotten.
