CREATESPACE Table Fables: A collection of tables for the weary game master Paperback

Beautiful stylised book! Good quality. Bought this as birthday gift for my BFF who is a DM and she absolutely loved it! She was flicking through it and reading it to me and she literally shrieked in delight when she saw one of the sexiality options was Asexual. As an Asexual she was so happy with the representative!

This is a great little book for off the cuff NPC details or those little mundane treasures you need when your players just HAD to pick pocket someone in the market. It even has some really nice character creation tables in it though I did spot one little typo. It said to roll a d4 on a table with 6 choices but easy enough to know it meant a d6. Would highly recommend it to anyone who likes a physical book over using online tables on a phone, tablet or laptop during a game.

physically the book is neither glossy nor matte, and it shows fingerprints a quite badlyThe character generation tables themselves leave something to be desired, where things are weighted equally, whereas some tables (especially in wizard of the coast rule books) the tables are weighted where instead of being a d4 roll, it'd be 1-3, 4-7, 8-13, 14-20 of a d20 or similar with a d100. It does this in every table except one.The art is fairly inconsistent with some of the larger images having very thick lines as if they were a scaled up versions of a smaller drawing and others as if they'd been drawn at that scale

I love the randomness of D&D, players opening chests and making them roll d100s to see what potion or magic item they find inside. It's clear the author cares a lot about these also, as the magic items and weapons are homebrew which allow you to give your players a few truely unique items.

My husband enjoys playing Dungeons and Dragons with his friends. He even Dungeon Masters from time to time.He is quite lazy so loves this book because it is a quick and easy way to come up with story points on the spot.A very valuable resource
