d100 Alternate Research for Bad Wizards

Following from my components for bad wizards here are some alternate means of spell research for my current setting project. Inspired by reading Clark Ashton Smith and others on Hyperborean wizards. Playing with names. The Eldritch Wastes. Elder Aeons, Lands of the Brazen Tentacle Gods. The Orb of Telluria second from the sun Eob.

Also thinking I need
-d100 supernatural encounters across the Eldritch Wastes
-d100 clockwork mutations d100 overspace mutations
-d100 lesser demon d100 greater demons d100 demonic nobility
-set of wasteland terrain encounters and generic dungeons
-strange ruins of the eldritch wastes

This turned out better than I would have believed and helps set the wizard tone. Maybe a barbarian (warrior or or priest) life table or war and ordeals and intrigues
A townsman (thief) troubles table or duties of a priest of a city god. If not to similar to old stuff but something to get some ideas along.

A tower and a lab and a library are the basics as everyone knows.
Swapping spells happens but masters and sects guard their special spells.
Alien wizards, adventurers and people far from wizard guilds will swap more.
They are for the common safe methods of research.

When To Roll

Dread Arts for Bad Wizards

So I've been thinking what can I do to make my wizards more horrible in my new setting.
Basically I want magic to be more Hyperborean and like Clark Ashton Smith. This is a speculative experiment and mostly to ad colour to evil wizards and a reason to hate them more. Some of the alternate material components here might just be for back up rather than the sole methodology.

Traditional wizards use four types of props in magic.
Somatic = gestural
Verbal = spoken
Visual = magical side effects
Material = a substance or thing

A wizard with NWP slots in abjure somatic, abjure material and abjure verbal skill makes one INT roll for multiple skill and can cast spells with a simple stare

Somatic Components 
These are hand gestures, dance steps and movements that other wizards can tell exactly what your doing if they know the same spell or might have some inkling. An Abjure Somatic Components NWP might allow one to cast without gestures but require a stat roll. Such a skill would be handy if a wizard lost a limb until they repaired it.

Verbal Components 
These are spoken elements of a spell which are often the biggest giveaway a wizard is up to something. Other wizards especially might figure out exactly what you are casting. An Abjure Verbal Components NWP might allow one to cast without a sound but require a stat roll. Such a skill would be handy if a wizard needed to be silent or was rendered a mute or effected by a silence spell.

Visual Components
These are visual effects as the wizard casts the spell including smoke, glowing eyes, eldritch flaming hands, floating glowing letters in pre human languages. Most manifestations like this include strange sounds also. They make it hard for a wizard to be subtle. An Abjure Visual Components NWP might allow one to cast without any visible effects from the wizard but a fireball or spell itself will be unaffected, just the wizard will not stand out. Very effective for charming people in public.

Material Components
Ingredients you just buy preferably from a wizard shop or gather yourself.
Generally i like the following formula if you cant find the stuff yourself
The modern approach of buying a level appropriate bag of ingredients is easy
Dragon 83? i think did a thing pricing ad&d components
Most organic components are preserved usually dried
Greater spells use several weird components (one per spell Lv hence the cost)
Bad wizards have developed cost saving horrible alternatives to fussy materials
Found spells might require research to modify the components if not to a wizards taste or no longer to be found in the current age
If the wizard had own workshops, mines, or spent own time might reduce cost of a particular spell but this gets pretty picky in game, a set cost is quick and easy and doesn't have you breeding a certain type of snail or running a sweatshop of miniature makers. Possibly other NWP might make cheaper like an Alchemy NWP to pre brew potions bulk for a lower price. Guilds tend to set these prices or a master might have factories and gardens and stockpiles they sell in packets to their students.

Spell Component Level & Cost
0 lv = 1cp
1Lv = 1sp
2Lv = 1gp
3Lv = 10gp
4Lv = 100gp
5Lv = 500gp
6 Lv = 1000gp
7 Lv = 5000gp
8 Lv = 10000gp
9 Lv = 100000gp

d12 Sample Material Components 
1 Plant or herb
2 Fungus
3 Rare mineral
4 Artwork*
5 Precious and semiprecious gems
6 Animal body part
7 Monster body part
8 Planar being body part
9 Human body parts
10 Incense
11 Narcotics
12 Symbolic object**

*idol, picture, calligraphic scroll, jewelry, embroidery, miniture
**possibly something with a similar name or symbolic assiciation almost like a verbal pun or like the kind of substitutions you get in primitive magic like a voodoo doll

Improvised Alternate Material Components
A NWP in Improvising Components in a pinch might help and would let them pre prepare before casting and could help in a prison break or if stranded but would take time. At least when it finally works you could repeat the replacement.

An Abjure Material Components NWP might allow one to cast without materials but require a stat roll. Such a skill would be handy if a wizard lost everything.

Drugs
Of course some wizards just use drugs as a universal componant.
Black Lotus, Leng Dust, Space Mead, Ygthar Elixir among others.Often distilled at higher level with manticore spittle, baslisk blood, mummy dust and others brews.

Sure they are addictive but what wizard doesn't cast spells every day? Easier to carry when you can score them. Many places ban these drugs.

Sacrifice Health
A sacrifice Health NWP lets you instead spend HP 1/Lv, causing user pain and temporarily disfiguring them or rendering them unconscious. But at least you don't need to roll. It hurts and is desperation mostly but has uses and is cheaper. Cantrips just cause petty short lived effects like blood noses. Boils, hair loss, open sores, withered skin last until healed.

Sacrifice Vitality
A Sacrifice Vitality NWP lets you temporarily sacrifice Attribute points 1/Lv which take an hour to recover a point. This also hurts and is hard work but you don't need to roll.

Sacrifice Blood
Then there are those who use the blood of others with a Blood Sacrifice NWP but this requires a roll. A zero level cantrip needs 1hp possibly a mouse or a bug. Other spells require a HD per Lv (a d4 or d6 HD is ok for first Lv). It gets messy and is suspicious but works. Having a herd of sacrificial animals or people can be a problem. Possibly sentient beings act as +1HD and Virgins as +1HD making it possible to throw a fireball with just one virgin instead of three pigs or a ox.

Sacrifice Life
Some rather than draw blood just suck life force through crackling ebon bolts and can draw from plants and other life. It is indiscriminate and will draw life from your companions if close and victims with at least a d4 HD get to save vs HP Loss (1HP/HD). Vegetation blighted leaves dead patches for a year per level usually a yard patch of grass or a potted plant for a cantrip, and a 3 yard per level with greater spells. Trees and gardens work best but get a collective save from the Earth itself. Grass or grain crops or healthy soil draw an even larger area, possibly triple. Desert or Ice or stone might not work at all. With a absence of life the HP come from the caster who's body saves to resist. At least this method needs no NP roll but the saving throws, possible self harm and hatred it creates are a cost.

Some Notes On This
NWP is Non Weapon Proficiency a late 1st ed term
A d20 stat roll in most cases INT based covers most of these
A wizard with high stats wouldn't care about rolling any more obviously.
I use all kinds of weird wizard NWP for stuff like 3rd ed feats in my game

Im not sold on all this yet.

I have considered such wizards might get additional benefits like 2nd ed specialists
-1 to Save vs their spells or +1 spell of each level when you gain a new spell level
eg +1 1st spell at Lv 1 then +2nd Lv spell at 3rd +3rd Lv spell at 5th etc
Or just a single extra spell of whatever you can already cast
Possibly an extra NWP slot or something or perhaps use two types of material components like blood and standard components to qualify for such a bonus.

This table for my current setting for NPC wizards you meet.
Most of the wizards in this setting are hated jerks possibly using black magic from evil wizard ruled empires of old or serve a surviving arch mage with a territory.

Most players will be the standard sort from cities rather than dread cults or remnants of evil prehuman arts

Non human wizards like serpentmen will be the more horrible sort.

Sorcerers especially hate traditional material components 

d20 What Type of Wizard is This One?
1-2 Standard Components
3-5 Narcotics
6-7 Sacrifice Health
8-9 Sacrifice Vitality
10-11 Sacrifice Blood
12 Sacrifice Life

Some magic items might make all this easier too.
Pouch that provides for one spell or find a dozen components for a fireball casting in packets or pouches with that spell book. A spell to cast lower spells without components or higher level more subtle spells like a 2nd lv charm that takes a wink.

Your suggestions on this appreciated.

d100 Castaways

Slow going this month with posts but I've been busy with adult stuff.
Here is a link to Tenkar's Landing aka the Black Isle, I apparently wrote almost a quarter of. Doh of course I tend to cringe at my own mistakes and why i stopped working with OSR collab stuff but this is pretty amazing and was a few years in the making before my banhammer. Self loathing aside Im enjoying it.

I chose a empty sea hex added some mountains and a huge underdark with citadel generators, orc tribe generators, ogre mutations, crystal caves which might be handy for a veinscrawl also.

Links on Tenkars page and he deserves the hits for presenting this - several years in the making http://www.tenkarstavern.com/2018/07/the-tavern-chat-podcast-episode-65.html

Return of the Reptilians

This is a guide to lizard folk around the world. Some have exotic abilities.
My generic lizard men not as amphibious as standard dnd ones.
Might do a reptilian warzone post. Done reptilian mutations.
As my new setting im working on has reptilian remnants everywhere I thought this would be handy but it does overlap with my beastmen project.

Notes

Marine Iguana Folk
Green-blue warty hide with dorsal spines, some with red colour or with algae on skinHold breath for up to an hour, swim at normal movementThis ancient tribe live in basalt islands covered in ancient ruins they may have once built as slaves long ago. They are naive about affairs and people off shore but slavers have been kidnapping them to use as pearl divers.  Some islands are more wary. Some dwell in underwater caves often with pre human ruins in them. They do eat meat and shellfish but mostly subsist on marine algae, seaweed and cactai. Many think them hideous and monsterous but they are one of the friendlier breeds who can be convinced to help with underwater exploration or investigating ruins. They prefer tridents, nets and obsidian bladed daggers and war clubs but these are mostly stored in secret caves or used for fishing.


Thorny Devil Folk
Tan, some black and yellow or umber
Covered in thorny warty spikes, survive with 10% water of similar size creatures
This desert race look devilish but are mostly peaceful desert dwellers who make sand art and desert topographic art which they use as maps to locate tasty giant ants and water. Well concealed in desert areas especially rocky outcrops. Will eat other giant insects and people if given a chance as they waste very little and carry few tools. Most use throwing sticks, clubs, small wooden shields, boomerangs, javelins, darts and atlatl (woomeras, also a club, digging tool and bowl). They weep tears of blood if sad or wounded.

Gila Folk
Red and black or yellow and black mottled patterns
Large +1-2HD, with a venomous bite save or 2d4 necrotic damage over an hourLarge feared monsters dreaded by neighboring peoples but actually they are peaceful and exploited.

They often use spears, shields, huge war clubs and mauls. Some lick their weapon edges before combat.

Frill neck Folk
Tan, yellow or grey, some turn red or pink when angry
When enraged a large skin frill becomes erect making them look huge
Live in forests and deserts and mountain, they are quick runners on all fours 15" or two legs 12" and skilled at hiding. When defensive their frills erect, some change colour and they hold their mouths open and hiss. Mostly live in small families and use simple technology.

Large padded toes  to cling to any service (Surprise 1-3in6), large eyes (surprised on 1in6)
Peaceful insect hunters often live in caves, cliffs and forests. AC one point worse than most lizard folk. Very nocturnal and hunt by night.

Plastron shell AC15, Swim at foot speed, hold breath 40 minutes 
Turtle folk can often be hundreds of years old, are very wise and patient. They can be a bit crabby and crotchety and absent minded when old. Some breeds are more maine oriented but tortoise folk are less aquatic often living in deserts and anywhere far from humans. Both types often live on islands building stone citadels where they keep their ancient knowledge. They enjoy singing but most other races don't appreciate it. Often use maces and spiked clubs.

Cobra
Mostly brown often with yellow or green diamond markings
Venomous bite, some breeds can spit blinding venom instead
Cobra men are a tropical serpent man race notorious for cults and their ancient jungle ruins. They are despicable vile evil creatures who unlike other breeds crave human slaves, cultists and hybrids. Like to use swords, daggers, bows and javelins.

Viper (Horned Snakemen)
Various colours blending in with local climate with horn like thermal receptors
