[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 7653275, member: 4936"] The generator is weirdly entertaining to use. Also, in defense of the system, it's pretty explicit about encouraging folks to use or ignore whatever randomly rolled events they want. It's meant to be a jumping off point, not a hard coded road. I suspect that the tables represent past failures and conflicts because it's harder to come up with those for one's self. Coming up with a past incident where our valiant character saves the day is pretty easy. But thinking of a dark time when his faith guttered low and he stared his own shadow in the face is harder. So there's tables to help get us thinking about that. Don't want to? That's cool too, just ignore that part. Not to say it's perfect or anything. It would have been cool to have a bit more variety in those life events...and maybe the option to have more than just those few major touchstones. Just in case we weren't done rolling dice yet. :) [/QUOTE]
