1d12 Random Warriors,Wanderers, Wastelanders, & Cavemen Encounter Table For Your OId School Campaigns




They come from across the wastelands, the forgotten places, & the darkest corners of the planes. Warriors,wanderers, wastelanders, & supposedly primitive warriors are often far more then they appear. These beings are not to be trifled with for they have the power that boils in their genes and from their gods.


None of these NPC's will be surprised by technology nor awed by space craft. They've been across the wastelands & have become wise to the ways of the 'civilized'. They are beings of folly & have faults as others but they are very crafty as well as quick to learn.
'What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie?
I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky.
The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing;
Rush in and die, dogs—I was a man before I was a king.'
Robert Howard 'The Phoenix on the Sword'  1932
