Rumors Table

[Elorebaen]

I love the addition of the rumors table in Kingmaker, and I really hope that this becomes a regular occurrence in APs. Rumors are one of the main elements that make an area come alive, and having them already setup is just one thing I do not have to worry about as a GM.

Thanks!

Saved my ass today when the party decided to visit the local farms that were placed in the northern Greenbelt for flavor and I had to come up with some conversation topics for the locals.. :)

I, too, am a fan of rumors, but they work exceptionally well in a campaign as sandboxy as Kingmaker.

Spoiler:

Created this hand out for my game based on one of the rumors.

I like the rumours, though another similar element I'd find helpful would be a short list of some random encounters; perhaps a monster or NPC name, a bestiary page number and a rough outline of what the creature is up to in the area (i.e.: A female black bear is guarding her den and two defenceless cubs. She will attempt to intimidate trespassers, will fight to the death if cornered, but will not pursue those who flee.) or (A lone human trapper, Jonah Delason, is in the midst of laying a trap line along a small game trail. He'll be protest if strangers stomp through his line but will remain civil though gruff if faced with a well armed party.)
