When you need a jolt of creativity, or want to play solo, you can apply the Recluse oracle (
https://gravenutterance.com/2019/03/24/ ... lo-engine/) to get interesting answers to yes/no questions.
You can produce a Mad Recluse oracle with the following modification to Recluse: when you get doubles on an equal-weight roll, a random event occurs.
- doubles: random event
- 1: new NPC
- 2: environmental change
- 3: discovery
- 4: loss
- 5: rumor or memory
- 6: old NPC
Then ask the oracle whether the event is
beneficial or
baneful.
