1d10 Random Wasteland Elder Advisers and Deep Post Apocalyptic Wasteland Guides Table For Your Old School Campaigns


The deep wastelands offer strange turns of time and space, places where the threads of fate intersect and weave themselves around the what once and the will be's of the world. Past,present, and future move along the bends and breaks of time.
These conditions make it very easy for agents of fate,neutrality, and beings of power to send their movers, elders, and guides to heroes who need their insights and services. These beings can be party patrons, pivots, and beings whose advise, council and wisdom changes the course of history. 
The deep wastelands where mutation,villainy, and horror lurk are where you will find these agents watching over the destinies of worlds. Here then is a list of patrons and guides for your old school campaigns.

  1. A former hero and barbarian chieftain this agent of a god moves along the threads of fate and watches as he grows old in age.He is armed with enchanted weapons and the wisdom of ages.

  2. This druid and gardener tends the forests of his world,and moves among the woodlands as sainted keeper of the ancient wisdom of a vanished race. His face has been tattooed with the lost prophecies of fate and his hair is knotted with the coiled twine of fate. He bares the magick of his years and looks to be a part of at least a few more quests before the cycle of fate takes him back to his ancient teachers. 
  3. This enchanted elder guide has crossed the bounds of life and death many times.He carries the burden of immortality and the ancient curse of having once been a hero.

He carries a staff of the ages and the robes of his office. 
  4. This ancient sainted crone is a witch of the highest order but retains the old ways of the fairy mothers.She watches the threads of fate with a keen eye and the intelligence of a burdened queen.She seeks out great heroes and adventurers testing them,advising them, and sometimes killing them should they not meet her and ancient mistress's standards. She cares the scissors of fate and a dagger of judgement. Many seek her out but few meet her gaze of doomed wisdom and the hint of insanity in her eyes. 
  5. This ancient knight once served Chaos with abandoned but age has tempered blood thirst with wisdom of slaughter. Neutrality and ancient Order offered this murderer a reprieve from death itself as he must now advise the heroes and survivors of his former kind's deeds over and over.

His armor is old, battered but still offers protection of the highest order.

  7. Fate moves this card player where and when he is needed. His cards are like his skin, old and battered but they retain the colour and cold wisdom that life has taught him.
