[QUOTE="JMISBEST, post: 8978273, member: 7036159"] Out of boredom I've amused used A Mates Family Generation Tables to create a background for A Dnd Character and I'm puzzled. Why would someone that's the heir of both A Very Minor Duke and A Minor Baroness become A Adventurer? Before anyone asks yet again this kind of thing is possible because the mate that made them had the attitude that he would never have to worry about this kind od thing because this kind of thing would happen Anyway here's the full info Rolling for his Family A 96 on 1D100 followed by A 49 on 1D100 means that his fathers A Very Minor Duke and his mothers A Fairly Senior Baroness In case anyone’s wondering The 49 on The 2nd 1D100 would normally mean that my characters mothers A Wealthy Commoner but because my characters fathers A Very Minor Duke my characters mothers gets boosted to A Fairly Senior Baroness A roll of A 74 means that his fathers very small Dukedom consists of 5 fairly large Earldoms each of which consists of 7 fairly large Baronies A 58 on 1D100 followed by A 29 on 1D100 means that he’s the youngest of 5 children A 4 on 2D10 means that even though he’s the youngest of 5 children all 4 of his older siblings are female That means that he’s the 2nd in line to inherit both his fathers title of Very Minor Duke and his mothers title of Minor Baroness, which when he takes the title the title will change to minor Baron Rolling for motivation A 1D10 roll of A 4 for motivation means that whilst waiting to inherit both of his parents lands my character has gotten bored and decided that to get a bit of excitement in his life he would become a adventurer Naturally theirs no way that someone that’s the heir of both A Very Minor Duke and A Fairly Senior Baroness would go anywhere without bodyguards, naturally my characters bodyguards are paid by his father Saying that though because this person that’s their of both A Very Minor Duke and A Fairly Senior Baroness is bored and want some fun, excitement and danger normally they will let him get the fun, excitement and danger he wants and they will only intervene is his life is in mortal danger And So great is The Very Minor Dukes concern for his heir/my character, that he has assigned A Guard Force that consists of 1 31 Strong Platoon, 1 7 Strong Squad and 1 5 Strong Squad to protect his heir/my character Rolling for what his family gave him A 79 on 1D100 for regular stuff means that he starts with up to 40,000 Gold Coins worth of regular stuff A 11 on 1D100 for magical stuff would normally get him almost nothing but because he’s the spare heir of both A Very Minor Duke and A fairly Senior Baroness he gets 1 +1 Mace, 1 suit of +1 Chainmail, 3 1-dose bottles of Potion of Healing and A Flask of Endless Water As well as which my character has A 4-in-10 chance of having enough Type III Bags of Holding to allow him to carry with him all of the regular stuff, all of the cash and all of the magic stuff that he starts with When rolling for cash A 35 on 1D100 nets him cash equal to 2D3+1x1,000+15,000 Gold Coins or 21,000 Gold Coins A 19 on 1D100 for Valuables wouldn’t normally get him almost nothing but because he’s the spare heir of both A Very Minor Duke and A fairly Senior Baroness he gets 1D8x1,100 Gold Coins worth of valuables or 5,500 Gold Coins worth of valuables A 99 on 1D100 for bodyguards nets my character bodyguards whose wages are paid for by his father that have a combined total of 1D10x10+120 levels or 200 levels A 1D10 roll of A 5 means that I get to choose what the force consists of and in the end I go for 18 4th level Fighters, 11 4th level Clerics, 6 5th level Rangers, 4 3rd level Thieves, 1 9th level Druid, 1 9th level Cleric, 1 12th level Magic User and 1 12th level Fighter A 7 on 1D10 means that I can choose The 9th level Druids 18HD worth of Animal Companions and I go for 1 5HD Owlbear, 1 5HD Large Crocodile, 1 3HD Dire Wolf, 1 2HD Wolf, 1 1HD Weasel, 1 1HD Bloodhawk and 1 1HD Huge Spider A 98 on 2D10 means that The 12th level Magic User has 9 Spellbooks and 3 Spellscrolls that between them hold a total of all 32 1st level, all 2nd level, 2D2+12 3rd level, 1D3+9 4th level, 1D3+5 7 5th level, 1D2+3 6th level and 1D2 7th level Magic

level and 1 7th level Magic User Spells Also My characters motivation for become a adventurer is that whilst waiting to inherit both of his parents lands my character has gotten bored and decided that to get a bit of excitement in his life he would become a adventurer Naturally theirs no way that someone that’s the heir of both A Very Minor Duke and A Fairly Senior Baroness would go anywhere without bodyguards, naturally my characters bodyguards are paid by his father Saying that though because this person that’s their of both A Very Minor Duke and A Fairly Senior Baroness is bored and want some fun, excitement and danger normally they will let him get the fun, excitement and danger he wants and they will only intervene is his life is in mortal danger And So great is The Very Minor Dukes concern for his heir/my character, that he has assigned A Guard Force that consists of 1 31 Strong Platoon, 1 7 Strong Squad and 1 5 Strong Squad to protect his heir/my character [/QUOTE]
