RANDOM TABLE: BOOKS

Yes, 100 random books, notes and diaries for your fantasy library, office or otherwise. Maybe your players find them in the burned out husk of a home, or maybe they’re hidden away in a dark tomb somewhere? Some of these are not exactly as they seem, so beware! 

Many thanks to @thetitanalone,@marimolejo,@dykes-and-dragonss, @fallingintomagmell and @ramenmom for coming up with ideas so quickly I could hardly keep up.

Sylvan Mind Flayer

Commissioned by @detective-rowan! Thank you! The race combination, for those unaware of my naming conventions, is elf x mind flayer. It was actually really interesting to learn how mind flayers canonically reproduce!

SIMPLE BACKGROUNDS

Not everyone is born a hero. Not everyone is special. Whether for an NPC or for a player character, these backgrounds are for those among us who live or have lived a life far away from the limelight. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t rise to the occasion. In fact, far from it.

This was made for 5e. Open images in new tab for better quality. Have fun playing, and feedback is much appreciated! If you like what I do, consider buying me a coffee!

Tectonic Platelet – Tiny elemental, chaotic neutral

Known as Project Living Assault Vanguard Armor, or LAVA for short, this tiny elemental is another invention by the Institute of Microzoological Alchemy. Legend has it that only the highest ranking members of the institute’s military order received a tectonic platelet as an award for their services. While this gesture was considered a great achievement already, the true power of this elemental lies in its ability to evolve into an astonishingly magical armor. Whether this effect is triggered by exposing the tectonic platelet to a certain magical substance or some other kind of energy remains one of the many unresolved mysteries surrounding the institute.

Mininimbus – Small elemental, neutral

Like dust in the wind, this little elemental drifts wherever the current takes it. Although not dangerous or aggressive per se, caution is still advised: A mininimbus is highly charged and can potentially cause severe damage – especially when moved by strong winds. Rumor has it that this peculiar trait led to the invention of a wonderous device, enabling its wielder to turn the mininimbus into a staticky projectile and yeet it at unlucky enemies.

Prancing Patty Crab – Tiny fey, neutral

Despite its fey origin, the prancing patty crab is often mistaken for a common crustacean and widely appreciated as savory delicacy. One of the main reasons for this misconception might be its exceptional way of communicating. Instead of speaking, the prancing patty crab draws upon a vast repertoire of complex dancing routines. Looking like display behaviour to fend of predators to the untrained eye, only highly attentive experts are able to read the subtle messages conveyed through the feisty movements of this peculiar fey.

Vinefang Faerie – Tiny fey, neutral evil

Known as an eccentric collector of rare plants, the vinefang faerie is typically encountered in luxuriously equipped glasshouses or well maintained groves. As friendly and charming this curious fey may seem, there is no denying that it is still surrounded by an aura of wickedness. This is not surprising considering the large numbers of carnivorous plants the vinefang faerie lovingly cares for. After all, they need to be fed regularly…

Findal – Tiny fey, unaligned

Possessing features of an animal and a plant alike, the findal is in fact a thoroughly curious critter. As tiny and harmless as it may seem, its leaflike tail is coated with a highly poisonous substance. The most peculiar trait, however, is the findal’s ability to make a creature literally shine in accordance to its life force. Legend has it that some wood-dwelling elves found ways to channel this magical energy either by taming or capturing this quirky, froglike fey.
