Descriptor and Focus for Compact Chaos
First up, a d66 is rolling a d6 once for "tens" and once for "digits". A "3" and a "5" would be 35. By default going along the row then down the column.
Descriptor and Focus are used as spark tables to give ideas in solo games, for the details of a Yes/No question, the specifics of a quest or rumour or anything else that wants a more concrete idea.
Compact Chaos is a 1-page (currently) light system for playing solo rpgs on the go or with minimal reference. I'm planning on adding some d66 tables to it (which these are the prototype for!).
