Dungeon Crawl Classics - Random Wizard Patrons
In thinking about running a DCC adventure in a couple of weeks I realized that there isn’t a random table in the book for Wizard Patrons. “Hi, I’m a level 1 nobody. Mr./Mrs. Supernatural-Super-Powerful-Being you ARE going to be my new mentor and magical benefactor.” That doesn’t make sense to me. What makes more sense is that when a character discovers the Patron Bond spell it’s with a random Patron. In this way you can say that the Patron is selecting the character. You can just go into your book with a pencil on page 49 in the Wizard class description and number them down the list. It’s just that easy. I’ve provided a table here with expanded options.
