Alternate Random Religion Generation (Ultimate Campaign, Quests & Campaigns)


Lost Omens Campaign Setting General Discussion


The back of Quests & Campaigns has a random religion chart, either to be used on its own or as part of character background generation using Ultimate Campaign. As noted in this thread, a completely random religion does not mesh with all alignments - especially for clerics and paladins. I created a method that incorporated the Conflict Points detailed in Ultimate Campaign, but that method only listed the main 20 deities of the Pathfinder system.

Here's a new subsystem for those using the myriad divine entities of the Inner Sea (requires Ultimate Campaign):

Once Conflict and Motivation are determined, but before Resolution is, roll on these tables:

Basic Faith (d20)
1-15: Dedicated
16-19: Undecided
20: No Deity

Undecided and No Deity are as written. If Dedicated, roll on the following table, with an adjustment based on your CP. If your result is higher that 20 or lower than 0, reroll.

2-3 CP: +34
4-7 CP: +12
8-12 CP: +0
13-15 CP: -13
16-18 CP: -31
