My Gunderholfen solo play has gone well im doing Lv 4 sub levels and realised id not been including rival parties who might be a good source of magic items. Im ruling as our fame increased more rivals appearing and even trying to kidnap party members when alone in streets of city. The encounter pack is good for any city. Party have a wizard patron and know of the cults possibly in the city and dungeon.
I will put up all chargrinspire table on a PDF on Patreon shortlyas I have almost finished the table and hexcrawl part - rule expansion and mega dungeon will be later. Fair warning will have place holder art that wont be used in any possible sale version.
These are people you might meet in settlements or wastelands or prison cells. They could be alone or in charge of followers or a gang or a party. They might meet in a tavern and be available for your party for a share (we do a share per Lv and pay our personal followers from our share)
As usual, feel free to change gender or make NPCs alchemical hermaphrodites or whatever - its a easy to fix thing with a polymorph spell
