Fantasy NPCs in Chaos Solo Engine
Quests is a wide term for hooks, adventures, missions and anything else with a purpose the Player Characters want to get up to. Find the jade ring for the ritual, drive off the monster harassing the village, hunt down the assassin of the Duke, avenge your mentor, clear out the Ruins of Deathfang Fane or deliver a bag from the bard you met in a tavern.
Chaos Solo Engine aims to act as a companion to the player(s) when playing solo. Answering questions, helping with ideas, structuring scenes, and guiding ongoing play.
The upcoming Chaos Solo Engine -Complete has an array of tables for various fantasy themes, including settings of City, Dungeon, Hinterlands, Otherworld, Sea and Wilderness.
There is also a pay-what-you-want pdf of core tables in on Drive Thru RPG as Chaos Solo Engine - Fantasy Basic.
