Tales from the Loop scenario generator

[froodle]

Hi fellow loopers! I thought I would share this scenario generator that I’ve been working on. It’s full of aspects pulled from various sources (Gravity Falls; Eerie, Indiana; The X-Files; The Twilight Zone; etc.) and is designed to help you come up with stories (either planned or on the fly). Roll 2d6 on each of the five main tables, using one number for the row and the other for the column, writing down the results for each. If you roll a result in all-caps, consult the appropriate table to fill in that blank. Once you have the five aspects, try to create a story with at least three of those elements.

Example:

Antagonist: Drifter (6-3)
Power: Paralysis (3-4)
Device: APPLIANCE (3,1) > Fridge (2)
Goal: Fame (5-2)
Intro: Hiding
The PCs find a car that’s crashed into a tree. The driver is nearby, hiding in a bush. He says that he’s hiding from a hitchhiker he picked up who did something to paralyze him (hence the crash). The hitchhiker told the driver his name and that he should spread the word about him.

I hope you find this helpful (or at least amusing). I’ve used it to create a scenario that I’ve just started running and it’s been going well so far! Let me know if you have any comments or questions!
