THE 30 SIDED CHARACTER

After your initial rolls are done in whichever game

system you are using, break out your 30 sided dice. If you are
a player, the unusual player character enhancements provided
in this chapter will add spice to your game. Use the rollups
as if they were a natural part of your character. If he walks
with a limp, play him that way, if he has a goblin
grandmother, lay a huge guilt trip on him whenever he kills
goblins. For every disadvantage that might be a result of
being psychotic, there are positive aspects, use them and your
imagination. Remember, the characters are only as real as you
make them.
Gamemasters, roll character enhancements to give the
player some additional Gepth to what can often be a one
dimensional character. The charts in this chapter can be used
by you to help the player discover his character. He may not
LIKE what he discovers, but then who likes everything. Mainly
included in this chapter are bits and pieces about the
individual. Used with cunning, these scraps of a character's
past and present can be employed to create an awesome game.

~~ 30 SIDED NON-PLA VER CHARACTER

Your 30 sided dice can create an entire world and it's a

two way street, you can roll non-player characters as a player
or as a Gamemaster.
As a GM, you can sprinkle your entire scenerio with
random non-player characters. A road can have gypsies or
beggers or slavers or camel trains, a bazzar is filled with
merry or not so merry characters floating about, just waiting
to interact with your players. Taverns, angry wizards, each
pagP is 30 unique scenerios designed to add color and
excitement to your game.
As a player, wouldn't it be fun to put the Gamemaster on
the defensive? With these non-player character tables you can
request to roll the NPCs yourself, putting GM and player on
exactly equal footing in the interactive scenerio. Thus, if
the GM says, 11 You see someone, 11 ask for a 30 sided dice
roll. Then open this chapter and watch the fur fly.

THE 30 SIDED LAND

Ah, the countryside, the mountains, the swamp, the worlds

of angry wizards. This chapter fills in the cracks between

major parts of a scenerio. If a game starts to lag a little or
it's a pick-up and YOU got elected gamemaster, your trusty 30
sided dice can help get/keep things going.
If your next wandering monster happens to be a 25th level
Wizard, you can roll an encounter. If your players stumble
into a jungle, you're prepared. There are places to go, things
to see, treasure and weapons to pick up, signs to read and
analyze, and trouble galore to get into and out of.
When a Gamemaster hands a player a table and a 30 sided
dice, odds are long that things are going to get interesting
in a big hurry.
