2018-12-22 More random tables

Writing tables for Hex Describe. Added treasure for hobgoblins and orcs. Now I need a bunch of magic items but I don’t want to copy stuff from a book. So it’ll be all: how much can I remember? How much can I invent? And will it be any good‽

Hex Describe

Right now I’m not providing the value of gems and jewelry. Perhaps I should?

I like the summoning scrolls.

There are currently no tables for magic weapons, magic armour and wondrous items. Still need to do these.

The table driven construction makes it hard to create comma separated lists at the moment. That’s why treasure is simply “a thing. a thing. a thing.” instead of “a thing, a thing, and a thing.”
