A-Z Village Location key

Ive been playing with more village stuff of late including a zine booklet to record each village coming soon. Village life is lots of fun and a good place for beginning adventurers. I realized my a-z dungeon key will be handy system for village creation also. This A-Z format might be good for hell or xor too. This is for rural villages mostly surrounded by woodlands. I would do different one for coastal settlement.

Basicly roll a random building type and define detail yourself or pick or roll one of the ten examples of each type. Should be able to create lots of villages using this.

Most businesses and government have heraldic like painted wooden signs for the mostly illiterate public to find them. Feel free to merge any two identities with skills into a single one like a holy healer or a wise head person or a magician sheriff. 
Villages on Exile Island copy elements of communities from the model of the empire. Basic buildings tend to follow similar purpose and style. On Exile island you see more varieties of faith. In the Barrony people sneer at druidry as it is weak and backward. In the Empire territories Druidry is persecuted like witchcraft.

Each 7th day villages have a day off attending church usually followed by meetings, defence training run by sheriff or his sergeant. Then a few beers, perhaps a contest or sing along. Children are often given extra lessons at church to help them go to the good place when they die.

Once a month is a great holiday or feast which coincides on a seventh day also.

Every village has a head person who acts as a leader to represent the comunity. They deal with the lord they owe fealty to, perhaps with religious authorities, bandits, merchants and even to solve petty disputes and lead village assemblies. The do their best to deal with problems without bringing in more senior authorities. Some villages are more independent or have a assembly typically comprising of everyone over 40.

Most taverns just serve drinks but might let you sleep on the floor for a copper. In more developed villages on better routes will have accommodation, some are sponsored by the kingdom to accommodate messengers, change of horses.

D Traders Store
Most villages have a general store that handles trade for the whole village. The store keeper is pretty important and influential. Some goods are for sale on behalf of farmers especially livestock. If you cross a shopkeeper you might get your whole family banned and this will force them to travel miles.

Often the facility is also home for itinerant workers and add a d30 workers not counted on village population. Wagon loads of minerals are frequently hauled away. Precious materials might require guards and a strongroom. Locals mostly do not mix with labourers and owners of industry usually have local power and influence

F Crafter Workshop
Every village has several crafters who toil in their home workshops and sell their own goods mostly by barter. Crafters are important and respected as are their children and apprentices. Evil villagers might cripple or imprison important craftsmen or keep them as slaves. Nice villagers often include them in assemblies. Many belong to town trade guilds and travel yearly to visit them. Crafters often have complex guild symbols and secret signs to identify members and bewilder everybody else.

The regional villagers may operate older forms of worship frowned on by city folk. Some have a shrine for travellers which is a welcome site. A shrine might have local significance and include footprints from a giant or marks made by a saint or hero, a sacred well or tree or grave.

They can be communal or owned by a person in the village. The local lord might own shed and the headman leases it out on lords behalf. Outsiders might store goods in out of the way places and merchants might hire them to ply market manipulation schemes. A dog or a few locals will keep an eye on them typically telling strangers to "clear off" and/or call the sheriff.

K Wise Person House
Every village might have a wise person which could also double as another villager role. Wise persons offer useful advice in a crisis and are often consulted when problems develop.

Sometimes the cult meet in another village other than home to throw off suspicion. Cults also rent abandoned houses for this purpose and many are haunted by evil rites and vile rituals held inside.
