Cowbells and Tent Pegs

The Tent Peg of Luxurious Glamping:

This is a single large steel tent peg that is richly decorated with runic symbols.  Pretty Fancy for a tent peg right?

It can be used as a weapon in a pinch.  Deals 1D4 damage and is otherwise considered to be a dagger. 

If it hammered into the ground (any form of the ground), a great tent bursts into being with the tent peg at the front right corner.  The Tent that appears is large enough to sleep a part of 6 quite comfortably and hold many more guests. and has a luxurious interior that is very welcoming to any tired traveler.    The Tent will also adapt itself to the climate it is in to ensure the right kind of insulation or ventilation as required. 

The interior of the tent is as follows: 

• Has a small cooking area.  This has a fire pit with a pile of firewood next to it to keep the fire burning for up to 8 hours.  This will need to be refilled manually. When this tent peg is removed the woodpile will remain within the tend.
• There are 6 beds that are partitioned off into separate sleeping areas.
• There is a seating area with beautifully crafted cushions upon which to rest.  Next to these are low-laying tables.
• There is also room for 20 inventory slots worth of storage.  When the tent peg is removed these remain inside the tent.  Anything not intended to be stored or is over this limit will be left on the ground.
• There is also room for 5 more pieces of "furniture".  This could include a recliner or even an alchemist's table.

When removed from the ground the tent is instantly un-summon disappearing into the ether.  Anyone inside the tent simply finds themselves in the space it once occupied.

The Root of All Evil:

The root of all evil is it is known by so many that have fallen foul to its trickery.  It is an oversized gold coin, it maintains an incredible luster and it is clear even to the most ignorant that this coin is worth LOADSAMONEY.

If the Root of All Evil is ever used as collateral in any wager or bet the losing party is ALWAYS convinced that they have been cheated or swindled somehow.  There is no level of reasoning or logic that will convince them otherwise.  This also applies to anyone who knows the properties of The Root of All Evil.  Even though they know the malign properties of the coin they will rationalise that how this time it would not have affected them and they actually have been cheated out of their prize.

People will react how you would expect if they were cheated out of money.

The Cowbell of The Milkmaid:

The Cowbell of The Milkmaid appears as an ornate cowbell upon which a beautiful red ribbon is tied in a bow.

Once per day the cowbell can be rung, this will summon the great Herd of Heffers.  The herd will appear somewhere in the vicinity making it through all obstacles seemingly unhindered in 1D6 turns.  As the Herd of Heffers approaches the ringer will hear the mooing of cows and the ringing of bells.

The Herd of Heffers comprises of 4 x 1D10 cows.  The herd is guarded by a single Minotaur who is unusually large and buff.  The minotaur will look on impassively and will not otherwise interact with anyone.

The party may milk the cows to produce magical milk.  This milk has healing properties.  They may not produce more than one pint of milk per cow.  The minotaur is cool with this.

If anyone harms the cows in any way the minotaur will fly into a berzerker rage and attack without mercy.  Remember this is a particularly large and buff minotaur so it could probably take the party.

After the cows have been milked the minotaur will huff gruffly and the herd will carry on its journey eventually dissapearing.  They cannot be tracked under any circumstances.

Alternative Rule:

Ringing the cowbell opens a portal to the Cow Level

M.E.G (Massive Event Generator)

THE M.E.G.

HERE WE GO!  As promised the M.E.G.  So just a brief description of what this all is and how to use it.  The M.E.G is a system designed to fill your game world with far-reaching events that should add some interesting narratives and potential hooks for plot and adventure.

 The events described here are considered to be Black Swans, which are events that occur by surprise and who have deep consequences for all.  These could be historical events or ones that are unfolding as your campaign progresses.

I would argue historically that Black Swans and other massive events have a habit of cascading from one to another.  The massive uncertainty from one event brings about others.  If you are using this to generate some history for a setting consider that and how these events could relate to each other.

I have also given it a bit of flavor to assume it is a fantasy setting that the M.E.G. will be aimed at, but with a few tweaks, you could apply it to others too.

A Worked Example

Type: 1D2 (result 1)

Alien: The event that happened had never happened before in history.  This is a new challenge that is un-yet explored by human experience.  In the real world, this could be something like the Aztec's meeting gun powder units or it could be the invention of the internet.

Source: 1D3 and 1D4 (result 2 and 1)

Source (Exogenesis - Geological):  The event that happened was caused by something not magical or by humans.  It is a result of the natural world.  In this case, geological sources, which have in the past caused all kinds of calamity.

Scope and Magnitude: 2D4 (result 2 and 4)

National and Total Collapse:  This is telling us that the damage caused by our geological event occurred at a national level (so a country or kingdom) and the fallout from it was so bad that the nation collapsed. 

Exogenesis Event Detail -Geological: 1D12 (result 12)

A living Mountain:  The event that caused this is the sudden awakening of a living mountain that would clearly crush anything in its path.  No city walls or armies can stop that bad boy.  

Filling in the Gaps:

• This is an alien event.  Therefore no one was aware of this mountain being a living thing. It has likely lain there for most of human history if not longer.
• Maybe it was always strangely placed and had some cultural or religious significance.
• The entire nation collapsed.  Therefore it is likely that the capital and other major cities have been crushed by its movement.  All infrastructure has been destroyed.
• If this one has awoken are there others?  Is this the start of more?  Did the sudden awakening of this mountain trigger a worldwide event?  Is it even possible to have settled cities now with the risk of wandering mountains?

So I hope that all makes sense.  Have a go yourself!

Political Roll 2D8
Roll	Description
2	The assassination of a Popular Figure: A public figure is assassinated leading to outrage and political complications.
3	Assassination of a Tyrant: An oppressive ruler is assassinated. The people rejoice but the future remains uncertain.
4	Democide of an Ethnic/Racial Group: An attempted genocide of a targeted group is committed by a political eternity or state. Leaving a long and ugly legacy.
5	Democide of ideological Opponents: A systematic purge of undesirables has taken place. The state/political entity committing this crime either denies it or rationalises it. Regardless the political landscape has been changed forever.
6	Democide through incompetence: Through poor leadership, bad policy making or pervasive corruption the people of the land have suffered. This has lead to a humanitarian crisis (plagues, famine, floods etc.).
7	War [Invasion]: An outside force has invaded with the intent to either conquer, exterminate or enslave. The invaders are: Undead Extra-planar/dimensional Extra-terrestial Rival empire/Raiders/Hordes
8	War [Innovation]: The rules of war are turned on its head through the development of new weapons/strategies/tactics. Soldiers and civilians alike face the new horrors wrought bit this change. The battlefield will never be the same again.
9	War [Atrocities]: This conflict has been punctuated by particularly horrific war crimes enacted upon the civilian and soldiering populations alike. This has left a traumatised population with deeply rooted cultural scars and hatreds.
10	Unrest [Revolution]: The great masses of the population rose up and deposed the ruling class. In the aftermath a new political system is created. Deeply rooted animosities still exists within, and powers from without eye them with greed and caution alike.
11	Unrest [Anarchy]: The state has failed and the rule of law is all but lost. It is unclear when or even if a new political power is able to re-emerge.
12	Unrest [Non-violent]: A non-violent movement demanding change has emerged. Any attempts by the state to crack down on them has only strengthened their resolve.
13	Succession Crisis [No Apparent successor]: When previous ruler ends their term there is no clear successor. Be this from a confused line of succession in a republic or a dead king with no living heirs. The state enters into a a period is extreme uncertainty.
14	Secession Crisis [Refusal to Relinquish Power]: When the current ruling power's term comes to an end they attempt to retain power. This becomes a race between the vying powers to shore up political support.
15	Succession Crisis [Multiple Successors]: When the previous ruling power comes to an end multiple successors emerge. Each determined to come out on top. It is likely to end in extreme violence.
16	Succession Crisis [Coup]: Through naked force an illegitimate power takes control of the apparatus of the state.
Economic 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Trade Route Collapse: A trade route vital for so many collapses. This prevents the transfer of vital goods and wealth between any number of nations. This has been caused by: Raiders/Piracy/War Climate change Re-routing of trade elsewhere Arcane disturbances
2	Trade Route Creation: The creation of a new trade route transforms the lives of many. It requires the guarantee of safety by at least one major power. The goods permanently change the wealth of nations. The new trade goods moved maybe a fundamental good or an ill.
3	Economic Innovation: Through the implementation of a new economic policy or developments in the world of finance (such as insurance or fractional banking) the way wealth is generated is permanently changed. Remember. A bank is more powerful than a standing army.
4	Workers Rights Movement: Demands for changes in the rights of workers have spread like wildfire. The state feels pressure to change but other stakeholders seek to desperately maintain existing powers and privileges.
5	Hyperinflation: The cost of goods increases by eye-watering rates. The wages of the average person can barely afford a meal let alone to be able to support a family. There is an explosion of poverty and desperation everywhere.
6	Bankruptcy of an Institution: It could be a financial institution or even an entire empire. The coffers run dry and the institution becomes bankrupt. This was a result of imprudent policy, economic illiteracy or even recklessness. The entire edifice is on a knife edge.
7	Establishment of Slavery: With the establishment of such a degrading practice society is changed. A life has a value, the cost of physical labour is redefined as well as the value of free will.
8	Abolition of Slavery: The emancipation of slaves fundamentality changed the relationship between various stakeholders in society. New economic paradigms are created. The ex-slaves must now find a new place in society.
9	Crushing Inequality: The gap between the haves and have nots within society yawns like an endless gulf.  The current state of things as they stand are unsustainable and if the direction of things cannot be changed unrest is sure to follow.
10	Out of Control Shadow Economy: The shadow economy that deals with illicit goods have grown to such proportions that criminal stakeholders wield the same kind of economic might as small nations.  It is likely that such a proliferation of criminal enterprises will lead to endemic violence.
11	General Strike: In response to working conditions and workers rights, workers from every avenue of life go on strike in general solidarity.  This puts significant strain on states and powerful stakeholders alike.
12	Union Formation: In response to working conductions and workers rights, workers begin to unionise.  This is redrawing the balance of power between various stakeholders in society.
Societal 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Demographic Shift: The nature of the demographics of the population fundamentally shift. This will have a significant impact on how society will change in the coming years. For example a massive decline in the male population due to incessant wars will lead to a society where females increasingly take on non traditional roles.
2	Fertility Rates Plummet: The amount of children being born has reduced dramatically, maybe leading to stagnant population growth. In time there will be less young to maintain the engines of the economy and care for the ageing population.
3	Population Explosion: Factors lead to a baby boom. This will in time create a demographic dividend where there will be a vast working age population in years to come.
4	Large Scale Immigration or Emigration: Immigration on a massive scale increases the population size. It brings new culture and ideas, and innovations but conversely beings societal tensions between native and immigrant populations. Conversely a large swath of the population emigrates for better opportunities elsewhere. Typically the most vulnerable remain. Society suffers for it. This may also lead to shifts in cultural and political values.
5	Cultural Value Shift: The flux of society and popular opinion shifts over time. When new cultural values emerge this can fundamentally shift the nature of society. For example the desire for universal suffrage or to abolish capital punishment.
6	Lawlessness: The apparatus of the state do not function anymore. Life here is without codified laws makes it ripe for predatory behaviours but also for a few to excel in a place without limits.
7	Moral Panic: A moral panic grips the population. This rarely reflects the reality of the situation or the risks that the perceived threat presents. Non the less moral panics can motivate the population to acts of violence and persecution.
8	Cultural Division: A fault-line in society has become increasingly entrenched. Creating two opposing groups that are fundamentally at odds, in some cases this can break out into endemic violence. These cultural fault-lines may go across religious, ethnic or even political lines. It is also not unheard of for cultural divisions to emerge from competitive sports.
9	Cultural Renaissance: The emergence of new philosophical thought (or re-emergence of old ideas) grips society. This pushes them on a path of enlightenment in science, philosophy and artistic expression. However where great strides in society are made evils also emerge.
10	New Religion: A new confident region is growing fast. The fervour of its believers is palpable. Its preachers argue powerfully to the populace in an effort to find new converts. This new religion is changing society at its very core. New values are being adopted wholesale by the population.
11	Defilement of a Religious site of significant Value: A holy site for a given religion is desecrated or otherwise destroyed. This act has outraged the believers and the prospect of religious violence, or even a holy war looms.
12	Religious Schism: Disagreements in the interpretation of holy texts or the leadership of the religion has lead to a schism. The religion divides upon theological or idealogical lines. You are to be reminded no conflicts are more bitterly contested than those fought by brothers.
Technological 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Transportation and Logistics Innovation: The development of new technology transforms the way that people are goods are transported over long distances. Or the expansion of transportation infrastructure makes travelling more affordable, faster and more comfortable.
2	Food Production Innovation: New developments in farming techniques, food processing or preservation means that excess food supply in the population expands considerably. Generally excess food allows for workers in agriculture and food production to move into different industries.
3	Military Innovations: A new military technology is developed. This is having major impacts on battlefields as commanders struggle to develop new tactics to counter the new technology efficiently. This technology will most likely find its way into civilian hands at some point having an impact in day to day life to some degree.
4	Medical Innovation: Through the treatment of body or mind new technologies or protocols have been developed. This has transformed the treatment of some (or all) patients. This is usually for the better. However medicine sometimes travels down dark paths to achieve its results.
5	Scientific Innovation: Through the efforts and curiosity of various nerds radical ideas about the nature of reality have transformed our understanding of the world. Biology Chemistry Physics Psychology Geology Sociology
6	Obsolescence: A long standing technology or industry for which many rely on for wealth is facing obsolescence due to new technological innovations.
7	Industrial Innovation: The development of new machines or processes dramatically increases the efficiency of a given industry.
12	Resource Extraction Innovation: The development of new technology or processes has increased the yield of a significantly important resource. This new technology may be environmentally harmful or even dangerous but the rewards for employing it are undeniable.

Exogensis Event Detail
Geology 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Earthquake: The ground shakes, buildings fall and lives are lost.
2	Volcano: Volcanic activity and the hazards associated with them are vast. Direct hazards such as pyroclastic flows, Lahars and lava destroy lives and property with ease. More insidious hazards like fluorine poisoning and ashfall can kill crops and cause buildings to collapse under the weight of the powdered rock. Extreme levels of volcanicity can pump so many particulates into the atmosphere the suns rays are reduced to the point that summers fail to appear.
3	Lava Fissure: Just a great big hole in the ground out of which lava pours out of. These lack the explosive fury of a volcano but historically some lava fields have persisted for millions of years and expand across continents.
4	Mass Movement: Refers to the movement of rocks and other sediment down slopes. Usually in the form of rock slides and avalanches.
5	Meteorite Impact: A meteorite makes it into the atmosphere and crashes into the earth. The shock waves will be devastating as well as the earthquakes that follow.. Meteorites that strike at particularly low angles do not make the typical crater shape. Instead, they create a cone of devastation in front of them like a giant intergalactic shotgun blast. Such events throw up a lot of particulates into the atmosphere. Meteorites that land intact were traditionally a source of iron, this was otherwise known as star metal.
6	Exotic Mineralisation: Strange and arcane forces act upon the geology of the world forming veins of minerals and metals that display unique and highly prized properties. Discovering such veins could transform the wealth of a nation.
7	Formation of Extensive Cave Systems: A large underground cave system has been built from erosion and natural fault lines. In some cases strange lifeforms and other dangerous civilisations may flourish here.
8	Moon Capture: A rogue celestial body has been caught up in the gravity well of planet. The gravity of this new orbiting body will affect the tides and potentially tectonic instability in places.
9	Establishment of Planetary Rings: The destruction of a moon or capture of numerous asteroids creates a series of rings that encompasses the planet. This makes the view nothing short of spectacular. Culture and art changes is heavily influenced by this change.
10	Establishment of a Geothermal System: Volcanicity in the area has caused extensive geothermal activity. Hot-springs and geysers are abundant here. This means the area is full of deadly hazards but also plenty of rare resources.
11	Strange Fossils: Fossils in exposed rock beds have been discovered. They are of strange creatures not found in the current era and they are found in abundances in sediment 10s of meters thick. They: Infect people around them with an unknown disease Unleash a terrible curse Animate as a legion of undead monstrosities Try to escape their prison of stone by attempting to possess people in the population
12	Living Mountain: A mountain moves and lives! It shuffles across the world, slowly but surely and wherever it goes earthquakes follow in its wake.
Climate 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Hurricane: The amount of energy in storm systems are ridiculous, therefore the damage hurricanes inflicts are often catastrophic. They are often accompanied with flooding.
2	Heavy Rain: Rain, lots and lots of rain. It causes catastrophic flooding, which will in the worst cases will start to strip top soil from the land. It is also worth noting that more than once in geological history it is rained non stop for millions of years at a time.
3	Temperature Shift: Extreme shifts in temperatures can put extreme stress on the body. These are often caused by non typical weather systems. Heat waves and unexpected frosts have been big killers historically. The great frost of 1709 is thought to have killed 1000s of people in England alone.
4	Drought: Sustained dry weather leads to a lack of available water. The outcome of this is crop failure and famine, war or even worse.
5	Climate Change: Long term and sustained change in climate conditions will change regional environments. These environmental shifts will nearly always be difficult for the local population to adapt to since populations tend to specialise their housing and economy for a given environment. Extreme climate change can have catastrophic effects.
6	Smog: Particulate rich air is held in place due to local weather conditions. This reduces visibility and often leads of severe lung disease. Mortality rates spike during acute smog outbreaks.
7	Establishment of Tornado Alley: The environmental conditions change here so that tornadoes have reached an endemic level. This is a dangerous place to live and adaptations to builds and infrastructure are necessary for safety.
8	Sandstorm: Sandstorms advance like a wall across the landscape. In the worst cases they can abrade the skin from your bones. Sometimes things lurk within the rushing winds and blasting sands.
9	Establishment of Mislands: Mists persist here. At all times it rolls above the landscape. The land below is thick with moisture and the limited sunlight ensures that it is boggy and only filled with the hardiest plant life. It is also likely that things that are shunned by civilisation find hidden places in which to lurk and hunt from.
10	Exotic Weather: Strange weather has afflicted the area. Driven by arcane or other strange forces. While it may be spectacular it may also be terribly dangerous. It could include: Rain of shards of Diamonds tearing at your skin7 Storms of screaming skulls Its raining men, literally Snow storms of snow flakes made of blood
11	Malevolent Auroa Borealis: It is spectacular and beautiful to behold but the lights themselves are serving a dark purpose those who spend time viewing it are mentally reprogrammed for some dreadful reason.
12	Intelligent Storm: It thinks it lives and if angered can bring untold destruction.
Marine 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Sea Level Change: Melting ice caps, thermal expansion of water or excessive underwater volcanicity can cause sea level s to change over time. Coastal cities or other low lying lands can become permanently flooded.
2	Tsunami: Tsunamis are usually caused by earthquakes or submarine mass movement. They devastate coastal areas and will sweep the population out to sea where they will drown.
3	Toxic Tide: This could be toxic algae, sludge or some other kind of floating horror. It is poisoning fish and other marine life, hampering fishing or even killing local populations who are exposed to it as it washes up on shore.
4	Treacherous Waters: Undersea topology can make certain water ways or bodies of water extraordinarily dangerous. These may become permanent barriers for travel due to the risk imposed.
5	The Kraken Stirs: A beast from the depths of the ocean stirs. It seeks to rid the surface of the trespassers of its domain. Sailors beware!
6	Ship Wreck: The seas claim a victim and a ship of significant importance (or ships) are taken to the depths of the ocean along with all hands. Due to the nature of the boat, its passengers and cargo this has major implications.
7	Establishment of a Mysterious Triangle: Ships here are disappearing with alarming frequency. There is never any sign of the ship, cargo or crew. The mystery of the triangle both intrigues and terrifies. It is possible that the answer to this mysterious phenomenon is better left unknown.
8	Inundation: Part of the landscape is eroded away by the erosive action of the sea. The area behind lies below sea level was below sea level and is now permanently flooded under an unstoppable inundation of floodwater. It is believed that some 40,000 years ago the Mediterranean flooded in this manner.
9	Massive Erosion Event: This occurs from a perfect storm of unusually strong wave action and particularly weak rock. The land is being perceptibly eroded day by day. Any major infrastructure or inhabitation here is certainly all but lost. Strong storms of flooding may increase the rate of erosion considerably.
10	Establishment of Pack Ice: Icebergs are being found here with alarming regularity. These are extreme hazards for all passing through.
11	Fathomless Depths: Through technological processes or arcane means it has been discovered that the waters here have no end to their depths. It has been hypothesised that if one travels deep enough one will end up in the deep ocean of a different world.
12	Discovery of an Intelligent Island: The island travels the oceans of the world. Perhaps on the back of a large beast. The land here is untouched and pristine and possibly home to a rare resource.
Natural Organisms 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Epidemic: An epidemic is a greater than expected rate of infection of a disease. Epidemics can be extremely disruptive to society, politics and the economies. Global pandemics can spread this disruption across the globe and will often re-draw the balance of power between nations.
2	Abernant Animal Behaviour: A group of animals display strange behaviours. This could be changes in migratory routes thus disrupting the lifestyles of hunter-gather tribes. Or this could be a switch in predation against humans and other sapient peoples.
3	Population Boom: A specie or species of animals sees a boom of their population. This has significant ecological consequences. Plagues of mice historically have devastated grain supplies.
4	Ultra Predator: A creature emerges that poses an imminent threat to the population. It may exude toxins, breed dangerous spawn at prolific rates. Or it could just be a damned Kiju!
5	Spores: Plant life unleashes masses of spore or pollen into the air. This has a significantly malign affect on the population. Its a bit like that M Night film but less shit.
6	Dark Forests: The forest turns in on itself and the trees themselves become hostile. All who enter into this green hell will be assaulted by the very landscape itself.
7	Animal Uprising: The creatures here attack humans and other sapient peoples without mercy. They will go out of their way and cooperate across species to ensure the death of such folk.
8	Plague of Locusts: Vast clouds of flying insects fill the skies darkening the sun beyond. They fall upon vegetation stripping it bare of all greenery. This destroys agriculture but the insects themselves are often prized for their nutritional value.
9	The emergence of a Toxic Landscape: Shifts in the ecology of the area means that plant or fungal life here begins to exude toxic chemicals into the environment. These areas are distinctly dangerous to travel into.
10	Rapid Uplift: A species of animal intelligence over a short period of time finds itself gifted with human level intelligence. The consequences of such changes in the status quo cannot be understated. This uplift could have come about due to arcane or even divine intervention. Equally this could just be the result of natural processes.
11	Fungal Expansion: A new aggressively expansionist form of fungal life has emerged. It colonises the area with ease, forcing other competing forms of life out of its ecological niche.
12	Eusocial Superstructure: A eusocial specie such as ants or termites are building on scales and to levels of complexity never seen before.

Acanogensis
Arcane 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Ritual Strike: A weapon of mass destruction in the form of ritual magic. Conducting such a ritual must require considerable resources that perhaps only a well funded state could muster. It is likely the use of such methods would be considered a war crime.
2	Ritual Blowback: A large and complex ritual backfires in the manner of nuclear meltdown. The effects of the ritual blow back will more than likely be a perversion of the ritual's aim. Alternatively: Causes and epidemic of insanity Pure destruction A great pulse of energy that dispels all spells and enchantments. Harms magical creatures. A curse
3	Necrophage: When the dead die, they rise again. A plague of necromantic power sweeps through the land. The graves are beginning to empty, the plague pits roil with animated corpses. If the living are not careful they will join these hordes soon enough.
4	Vivophage: A plague of mutation grips the population. Many lose their minds as their bodies twist. The land has become dangerous as wild mutants roam with hate and violence on their mind.
5	Arcane Exogensis: Through the work or influence of magic, deliberate or otherwise the natural world is changed. Re-roll the event detail under Exogensis, however the cause of this is magical.
6	Arcane Innovation: Advances in magic push forward the capabilities of nations. Re-roll the event detail under Endogensis [Technological], however this time the cause of this is magical
7	Agent Proliferation: Through summoning, production or incantation the population of magical beings proliferate. These could be golems, imps, owlbears or any other creature created via magical means. This could have major impacts on how society functions. Equally it could have far-reaching consequences for the natural world.
8	Zone of Spell Permanency: A spell cast either through deliberate action or by terrible accident that far exceeds its normal scope. The area is now permanently affected by a spell or ritual cast. This could include: Everyone being affected by flesh to stone Darkness A blink field where people blink at random times in random directions A giant wall of fire Cloud Kill Entanglement to all those touching the ground
9	Magical Pollution: The use of certain magical spells/schools harms the environment and the expansion of mages and their influence is creating increased harm.
10	The Emergence of a Dark Master: Sometimes powerful magic-users become evil, raise an unstoppable army of diabolical minions and seek to subjugate all.
11	The Creation of a Legendary Artefact: An item is made of such power that it has the capabilities to sway the history of the world. Such an item like the One Ring or Sword of 1000 Truths would require enormous resources to create. It is likely only an exceptionally powerful individual or state could create such an item.
12	Arcane Kiju: Through deliberate means or by accident, one or more Kiju sized monsters have been brought into the world. Shit is gonna get real yo.
Eldritch 1D12
Roll	Description
1	Establishment of Planar Bridge: A link between worlds is made by either natural alignment of planes or through construction of planar gateways (or similar structures). Populations from either world may pass from one plane to another through these bridging points between worlds.
2	Destruction of Planar Bridge: The link or links between worlds are broken. Maybe only a few remain or all contact has been severed. Intra-planar trade is immediately severed. Economies and peoples are thrown into chaos.
3	Weak Inter-planar Membrane: The walls between worlds has weakened precipitously. This means that things, inanimate or otherwise often pass from other worlds into this one. This may be a boon to people seeking power. Or a terrible, terrible hazard to all.
4	Proliferation of Eldritch Cults: People have begun to worship things, unknowable awful things from other worlds and hidden places. Sacrifices are made, crimes against all decency are commited in the name of these terrible beings.
5	Dissemination of Forbidden Knowledge: Some knowledge in some eldritch tomes are so corrupting that it erodes the sanity of all who behold it. States may try to suppress such knowledge but somehow this harmful knowledge is spreading through the population changing them as they learn its contents.
6	Planar Crossover: The area is merged with that of another plane or world. This has created an alien landscape with strange flora and fauna. This may well, create an area extremely hazardous to native lifeforms.
7	Outsider Establishment: A race or group from another world or plane settles in the area. This upsets the current balance of power as other political entities. The outsiders bring with them a new culture, technology and magic. However, they may also be too utterly alien to comprehend.
8	Reality Dysfunction: The powers of unknowable forces shift reality and change its rules. A familiar aspect of reality is changed forever. It could include the following: The nature of gravity changes The rate of decay of all things increases Non-eculidian geometries become possible Various inanimate objects gain sentience
9	Eldritch Being Establishes Domain: A being of unknowable power and motive becomes a grand patron to many. It establishes a realm where it rules in the mortal world.
10	Environmental Mutation: The area begins the change under strange forces. The landscapes shifts into something out of a fever dream nightmare.
11	Eldritch Countermeasures: An organisation has been formed to counteract the incursion and threats posed by outsiders and strange powers.  They act with a pragmatic ruthlessness and spare no quarter for any threat to the population as a whole.  They will purge when able.  They will secure, contain and protect when no other option is available.
12	The Stars are Right: Great portents change and creatures of immense power stir. Their motives are unknown but the population trembles in terror none the less.
Divine/Demonic
Roll	Description
1	The Birth of A God: Through celestial movements or through the actions of those in the mortal realms a new God is birthed. This may be a blessed event or a calamitous birth leading to the deaths of many. Regardless of the birth of this new being the power, The balance of the great beings is forever changed.
2	The Death of a God: Surely a god cannot be killed? It has happened regardless. The ramifications will be far reaching to the god's faithful and others. It is also possible that the death of a god will have a physical or metaphysical impact on the world.
