100 tables of pre-rolled semi-randomised content
Storytellers, creators of worlds, players. We all have those moments whilst we play or are writing a story when our imagination fails us, when we are caught off guard and need to think of something on the spot. It might be the name of our character's hometown, or a name for a famous battle in which the last big evil was defeated.
Over the last decade or so I have been making PDFs and generators to help with those sorts of moments. From the naming of planets to insults that could make the Bard of Avon himself proud!
But not everyone needs long multiple linked tables, sometimes you know what you need and just have a desire for something to fire off that spark of imagination. It could be in the middle of a s... |
 | Deities and Pantheons - Names and Domains Regular price: 0 Bundle price: 0 Format: Watermarked PDF | Deities and Pantheons - Names and Domains

What is the main characteristic of the person?
The Helpful List range from Ennead games is a series of lists in PDF format that give you ideas or pre-made results from other generators and tables.
This particular one covers epithets. An epithet is described as : “an adjective or phrase expressing a quality or attribute regarded as characteristic of the person or thing mentioned.”
Here they are divided into two groups/tables. One being, for the most part, positive and the other being , again for the most part, negative.
How and why the character earned the epithet is up to you, but whatever the reason it should be memorable and something worthy ofthe title!
Example Epithets:

1000 personality traits, moods and ways of acting for characters and NPCs.
Most of the time when playing RPGs, especially when playing as the GM, you don’t need to go into too much detail about your characters that you introduce, a quick description that covers their presenting gender (if any), ancestry, what they are doing , like their jobs/profession, and maybe a trait or two that helps them stand out from the crowd or helps with role-playing them.
This d1000 list give you a mixture of traits that some might consider good, others bad or even neutral, sometimes with only subtle variations to the point of being practically identical, others being wildly different!
These traits might be very noticeable, or so subtle as to be hardly visible unless you ... |

What is the bots model number + name?
When a robot, artificial beings or even tools are created, especially when part of a series, they are often given model numbers, such as B-234, or ZX995 and so on.
Sometimes it's deliberate, sometimes not, but these model numbers can resemble other words, such as QU4D looking like Quad and so on. This can lead to the robot, artificial lifeform etc being given a nickname based on its model number.
This Helpful List has two d100 tables of such concepts, giving you 200 ideas for model numbers + their equivalent in a more readable form. The lists are repeated and arranged alphabetically, once in a "Model to Name" format and the other in "Name to Model", with the contents the same for both.

400 “amusing” and punny names for your characters.
Anyone who has created a character for a game or story has (or will), at some point, written down a name and then only after it's said aloud noticed that it sounded amusing or punny. They look like regular, typical names at first glance, but the moment the name is spoken aloud you realise that your main antagonist has a name that sounds like something....lewd....or worse...
Of course, there are times when you WANT this to happen. Either your game/story is light-hearted and jovial, full of puns and jokes, or you want to throw people off guard, having the party laugh at the villains' name before they are crushed!

09. Hire a HERMETIC
“ Left mid-interview after “summoning office respect. ”
What happens when reality-warping geniuses are forced to justify themselves to a hiring committee?
Applying for a modern, professional position—complete with job description, résumé, interview transcript, HR observations, and a final verdict. Unfortunately for everyone involved, the candidates can literally rewrite the laws of reality but cannot agree on what “team player” means. Paradigms clash with corporate policy, metaphysical debates derail simple questions, and Paradox is always just one poorly phrased KPI away.
These interviews are ideal as:
-
Comedy interludes between serious sessions
-
In-universe documents or handouts
-
Quick NPC introductions with instant personality
-
A satire of both mysticism and modern workplace culture

- Earn Badges. Earn and share badges for your PocketQuest submission and for supporting other publishers in the community. More information about badges can be found in the PocketQuest Starter Kit.
What are the PocketQuest design jam’s rules?
- Rules Lite. PocketQuest submissions should be at most 25 pages (including covers) and act as standalone games. Ideal submissions are concise and easy to learn.
- No Community Content. Currently, we are only accepting submissions for PocketQuest for standalone games that are either a brand new system or under a third-party license (ex: Mork Borg, Mothership, Shadowdark, Lancer, etc.) property.
- Themed. Pocketquest 2026’s theme is Time Travel!
- Deadline. PocketQuest 2026 submissions must be sent through our Submission Form by April 27, 2026 at 11:59 PM Central. The submission form is linked in the Starter Kit.

- Your PocketQuest digital title must be exclusive to only DriveThruRPG and cannot be sold anywhere else. Your title will get exclusive benefits (including a 70% royalty rate), regardless of your non-exclusive or exclusive account status. You’re welcome to sell the print version wherever you’d like.
- #PocketQuest2026. Want us to see your ideas and discussions? Use hashtag #PocketQuest2025 during the challenge so we can boost your creativity!
How do I upload my completed PocketQuest submission?
- If you are new to DriveThruRPG, find detailed information about creating a publisher account and uploading your title to our marketplace in the PocketQuest Starter Kit.
- If you’re already a publisher, you will upload per usual, but keep it private. We will launch your title for you; please don’t make it public!
- After uploading your title, fill out our Submission Form (linked in the Starter Kit) so we can capture your submission.
I have another question!
Can I design an OSR adventure or content for a Community Content Program? What about my own system? PocketQuest submissions should be standalone games: no OSR adventures or CCP submissions. (An old-school feel is fine, but no rehashing rules!) If you have a rules-lite base system that can be included as part of the page limit, that is OK.
Can I use someone else’s rules-light system for my game (e.g. Powered by the Apocalypse)? This will vary by publisher, and it’s best to check with that system’s publisher and/or check if their website has details about permissions. If you have permission, go for it, as long as gamers need only your PocketQuest PDF to play (no outside books or PDFs).
Do my front and back cover count as part of the 25-page limit? Yes! When you upload your PDF, it must be 25 pages or less regardless of what is on those 25 pages.

DM Essentials 33: Ten Gate Sergeant Encounters
The Iron Grate and the Eyes of the Watch
System: 5E Compatible (Tier 1-2 Focus)
Theme: Authority, Profiling, Security Theater, and "The Filter"
Pages: 7
---
The Gate Sergeant: The Choke Point
The Sergeant is the City's Immune System.
In most games, the city gate is a loading screen. The guards are generic NPCs who say, "Welcome to the city." In a world that feels real, the Gate Sergeant is a professional paranoid. He stands at the choke point of civilization. He scans the crowd for spies, plagues, and weapons. He doesn't care if you are a hero; he cares if you are on "The List."
The Badge is a Shield.
The Gate Sergeant operates with absolute authority within his 50-foot radius. He can strip-search a Paladin, confiscate a Wizard's staff "for safety," or deny entry to a starving family because he doesn't like their accent. He is the master of the "Slow No"—using bureaucracy to frustrate people until they leave or pay up.
The Reality of the Watch: Boredom and Brutality
To a DM, the Gate Sergeant is a tool to set the tone of the city's law level. Through him, you can signal that the city is at war (heavy searches), corrupt (open bribery), or xenophobic (profiling non-humans).
Before the party arrives, the Sergeant has been standing in the rain for ten hours. His feet hurt, his armor is heavy, and he has dealt with fifty angry merchants. He has zero patience for "adventurer nonsense."
What's Inside
10 Gate Sergeant Encounters (Roll 1d10)
Why isn't the portcullis opening? What's the real story behind the "routine screening"?
1. The Racial Profile - Pulling aside non-humans for "extra screening" - He's enforcing a secret "Human First" policy from the Mayor
2. The "Fast Pass" - Ignoring the line to let a noble walk in - He's on the noble's payroll; pay to skip the wait
3. The Quarantine - Blocking the gate due to a "sickness outbreak" - It's a lie to keep a political rival out of the city
4. The Magic Tax - Demanding the Wizard "bond" their focus with a fee - He pockets the fee; there is no such law
5. The Spy Hunter - Asking oddly specific questions about your travels - He's looking for a specific spy from a briefing
6. The Shift Change - Leaving the post unmanned for 10 minutes - A window to sneak in, or a trap to catch sneakers
7. The Marked Man - Staring at a PC, checking a "Wanted" poster - Mistaken identity; the PC looks like a known criminal
8. The Broken Wheel - A cart stuck in the gate, blocking traffic - He staged the accident to search for contraband
9. The Deserter - A young guard tries to slip out with the party - He's deserting and begs the party to hide him
10. The Lockdown - Suddenly dropping the portcullis, trapping the party - An assassin struck nearby; the city is sealed

10 Detailed Encounter Scenes
Each encounter includes:
- The Tension - What the players see and hear at the gate
- The Truth - What's really happening behind the Sergeant's eyes
- The Scene - Vivid sensory details to bring the moment to life
- The Pivot - DC checks and player hooks to drive the action
From The Racial Profile (DC 13 Intimidation to force him to back down) to The Lockdown (DC 15 Persuasion to prove you're not the assassin)—each encounter is ready to drop into your session with zero prep.

Why Your Campaign Needs This
The Gate Sergeant isn't a villain. He's a public servant with too much authority and too little sleep. He's the reason revolutions start. He's the man who decides, on a whim, whether heroes enter the city or rot outside the walls.
Use him to:
- Set the tone of your city's law level in the first five minutes
- Create tension before the party even reaches the tavern
- Introduce themes of prejudice, corruption, or competent authority
- Force creative solutions: bribe, bluff, sneak, or fight?
- Turn a simple arrival into a memorable encounter

DM Essentials #42: Ten Quartermaster Encounters
The Hoard of the Citadel and the Price of Steel
System: 5E Compatible (Tier 1-2 Focus)
Theme: Logistics, Scarcity, Corruption, and "The Supply Chain"
Pages: 7
---
The Quartermaster: The King of Crates
An Army Marches on its Stomach. He Holds the Spoon.
In most games, buying gear is a transaction: pay gold, get sword. In a militarized Citadel, the Quartermaster is the most powerful person within the walls. He controls every arrow, every bandage, and every bootlace. He doesn't care about your gold; he cares about Requisition Forms. If he doesn't like you, you go into battle naked.
Inventory is Power.
The Quartermaster lives in a world of artificial scarcity. He knows exactly how many days of grain remain before the city starves. He creates shortages to drive up the value of his favor, or to punish units that have disrespected him. He is the bottleneck of the war machine.
The Reality of the Ledger: Cooking the Books
To a DM, the Quartermaster is a tool to limit player resources and introduce military politics. Through him, you can deny the party access to high-level gear ("Reserved for Officers"), force them to trade favors for basic supplies, or reveal that the Citadel is rotting from the inside out.
Before the party arrives, the Quartermaster is a man juggling numbers. He might be selling "surplus" weapons to the black market, hiding the fact that the grain silos are full of weevils, or hoarding the best armor for his own private guard when the walls fall.
---
What's Inside
10 Quartermaster Encounters (Roll 1d10)
Why was your requisition form denied? What's really happening behind the supply office door?
1. The Moldy Ration - Bread hard as stone, green with age - The grain reserves are spoiled; he's hiding the famine
2. The Missing Shipment - Magical swords "never arrived" - He sold them to a mercenary company (or the enemy)
3. The "Lost" Form - "Clerical error" blocks your gear - He wants a bribe to "find" the paperwork
4. The Black Market - Meeting a contact at midnight - Selling standard-issue gear at 300% markup
5. The Artificial Shortage - "We're out of arrows. Use spears." - He's saving thousands for the Royal Guard only
6. The Taste Test - Forcing a recruit to taste the Commander's food - He suspects poison and is using soldiers as canaries
7. The Scrap Metal - Melting down a statue of a hero - The iron mines are dry; the Citadel cannibalizes its history
8. The Favor - Masterwork armor for "quiet work" - He needs a rival officer intimidated or silenced
9. The Audit Panic - Frantically burning ledgers - The General is coming; the books don't balance
10. The Sieged Reserve - Refusing to open the Deep Vault while the city starves - He's hoarding the best supplies to survive the fall himself

Why Your Campaign Needs This
The Quartermaster isn't a villain. He's a bureaucrat with too much power and too little oversight. He's the reason armies lose wars. He's the man who decides who lives and who dies based on who remembered to file the right form.
Use him to:
- Create resource scarcity that forces creative problem-solving
- Introduce military hierarchy and politics
- Reveal corruption rotting the Citadel from within
- Give your players moral choices: expose him? blackmail him? join him?
- Turn a simple supply run into a web of intrigue

About DM Essentials
DM Essentials encounters are designed for immediate drop-in use—minimal prep, maximum atmosphere. Each installment gives you a fully-realized location, NPC, or encounter set that plugs directly into your existing campaign.
This product distinguishes itself from the Warehouse Master (Docks) by focusing on Military Hierarchy, Artificial Scarcity, and The War Effort. The Warehouse Master hoards for profit; the Quartermaster hoards because he decides who survives the siege.
