Here are the files that I've tweaked to get a bit more variation and
Forgotten Realms references. To use them, you will need TableSmith installed on
your computer. These files either replace the existing files or simply need to
be dropped into the file folders within the TableSmith program. At this time,
since this is a work in progress, I do not have neat zipped packages of files
that can just be dropped into the program. What I'm doing is offering you the
files I've worked on and giving you a description of what I've done- take it or
leave it. An understanding of *simple* programming is needed to make use of
these files. The folders are in your Tables folder in your TableSmith folder,
wherever that may be on your system.
Files from my Reference folder to add FR flavor-
| Deities.tab: Bruce uses
Religion.tab to reference gods on most of his tables that need the
reference. I created a separate table for the FR deities. Then I rooted
through the files that reference deity names and changed their references
from Religion.tab to Deities.tab. A simple Find & Replace will do the trick
once you add Deities.tab to the Tables/Reference folder. A simple Find &
Replace on the files that reference Deities.tab back to Religion.tab will
also work for those that don't want FR gods. |
| Places.tab: There are a few
files that give geographical references, they include a small list of
Mythosian place names. FR's place names are more numerous and complicated.
I created this file with lists of FR Regions, political regions, major city
names (with Region name in parenthesis), ancient cultures, and foreign
regions. Foreign regions is a list that's particularly weak, any updates
back would be appreciated. Any files that I use have replaced the Mythosian
list with a reference to this file. Another file for the Tables/Reference
folder. |
| Planes.tab:
I think only the Book Descriptions set uses this file, but I can see other
uses. The standard planes are given and the FR god home planes are also on
the list. I created the list in such a way that if you don't ever need the
FR-only planes, you can simply truncate the list by deleting the unnecessary
entries. Another file for the Tables/Reference folder. |
| Races.tab: I wanted a races
table for quick additions across the board to any list that might need it.
Mostly a treasure thing. Can't hurt to throw in into the Tables/Reference
folder in case it's needed for Book Descriptions. |
| Creatures.tab: This file
is referenced a lot from all sorts of tables in TableSmith. I wanted some
more depth to Dragons and Giants as no types were given. I added other
typical monsters from D&D to the list of fantastic creatures as well as some
more mundane birds and beasts to expand the possibilities. You can easily
use the original file with the same name or replace it with this one. This
is a replacement file that works well with the existing sets for
those that use the Monster Manual in their game. Drop this into the
Tables/Reference folder and accept the replacement. |
Files from my Names folder to add FR flavor-
| Formal Names.tab:
I added a possibility for simple personal titles to be generated as they are
not uncommon for those in the Realms that have time to write a book or
otherwise be of renown. The Mythosian places list remains, but is not
referenced, instead you'll need Places.tab. Finally, there's a small
possibility that a formal name might include a "servant of"
descriptor that references Deities.tab. This file replaces the original
Formal Names.tab in the Names folder. |
| Fantasy Names.tab:
This is not a necessary file to replace. The original works very,
very, well. But I like a variety of names, so I downloaded a pile supplemental
of name files from the Mythosa site. There wasn't a file that
automatically used them, so I adjusted my Fantasy Names file to reference
and therefore include these files. With this file, you've got a 50%
chance of getting the true fantasy name and 50% chance of getting a random
name off one of the other 19 files. |
