A GM’s work is never done, so to make things easier on you, we’re providing a series of tables to help you flesh out your encounters, adventures—your world. First up is everyone’s favorite: loot! Gold is good, but it gets boring after a while. Need to add some interesting items to a bag of holding? Have a bunch of bandits that require killing? Did your adventurers find a corpse and pilfer its pockets? (Of course, they did.) This Trinkets and Treasures table features fifty unique items of varying value and with two ways to roll: either use a d10 for a specific value bracket or roll percentile dice and leave things up to the Spinner of Fate! Whether you want to add a dash of flavor to a treasure chest or provide a hook for another adventure, our Trinkets and Treasures will provide with but a roll of the dice.
