Sometimes, the characters need a break – and by break they don’t really mean another story hook. This generator covers ordinary day-to-day things happening at the local inn in town which the characters are familiar with. A lot of entries here are simply background noise that characters resting up or waiting on somebody might act upon if they wish.
This table is designed for a European inspired fantasy set in a technological and cultural age equivalent to the Middle Ages up to the Early Modern Period (ca. 1100-1750 AD.).
This generator currently has 61 entries.

A group of farmers discuss the upcoming harvests and agree on when to help one another out. The discussion is remarkably not interesting to anyone who is not a farmer. There is one person at their table who is indeed not a farmer and they are bored stupid and showing it.
A dissatisfied customer curses the kitchen, spoiling any food prepared. Lifting the curse is a priority but finding out why the customer was so unhappy might be important too.
A newcomer to the town appears to watch everyone intently as if searching for somebody. Maybe they are – and maybe they just have poor social skills and are desperately trying to sort out who's a potential friend and who's a potential enemy.
A member of the inn's staff – barmaid, groom, you name it – confides in a character. Pregnancy, debt, hiding from somebody – whatever it is, they need the characters' immediate assistance.
A group of drunks make fun of the innkeeper's appearance. The innkeeper is not amused and may attempt to throw them out, possibly requiring the characters' assistance in doing so.To generate more suggestions, simply refresh the page.
