d20 x d6 Traits of Local Noble Houses Table

Like I said in the first post on this blog - I'm looking to add content to help hex crawl through settled areas as well as the more traditional wilderness content. While Nobles do their thing in wilderness and borderlands no doubt, there are more of them in settled lands I think.So this is a step towards that goal.

In my head, this table is for families who are pre-eminent in a 6-mile hex, but really there's nothing that stops anyone from applying it to more powerful families (or, indeed, to non-ruling families). It's probably skewed a bit towards a Warrior-Aristocrat baseline, but not so much that it can't be used for Imperial Bureaucracy Officials or Mage-Aristocrats or whatever other arrangements fit your setting.

Here's the table. Roll a d20 to find the trait, then a d6 to get the specific variation. If you want to go wild, you could even roll two or three times for the same family.


A sweet image from the BECMI companion set (of domain management fame), probably of a noble of some sort leading his troops into battle.
(Pretty sure this is an Elmore piece)
