"i have bob, sue, and bill"
"i loooove sue. we can write her with my character ann!"
"okay, what should we have them do?"
"hmm..."
hello, i made this for myself as a fun way of shaking things up for those times when you know you want to write, know who you want to write with, or even know what characters you want to write, but you aren't really sure what they should be doing. others are welcome to use it if u want/add ur own stuff/just choose stuff from it even lol. also if u see this write with me pls i love u
but yeah basically:
- roll for the area (or choose one)
- roll 1dwhatever-number-of-entries-is-in-that-place (like 9 for the capitol)
- see if u have characters that could fill those roles/if u could adjust it slightly to make it work
- if not reroll, if so, wahoo
