How Do You Bring Randomness to Your Games?
I want to run an OSR hexcrawl game whose story emerges from randomness. How do you bring randomness to your games, and what tools do you use to reference these sources of randomness?
Sources of randomness could include flipping to a random page in a book, playing word association, combining the results of several random words to inspire creativity, or random tables. Tools could include pen and paper, a whiteboard, Google Docs, Apple’s notes app, etc.
Physical Media (pen and paper, whiteboard, chalkboard, index cards, etc)
Writing App (Google Docs, MS Word, etc)
Notes App (Google Keep, Apple Notes, Evernote, etc)
Purchased Reference (Modules, Game Master Materials/Resources, Books - Physical or Digital)
GM or TTRPG Specific Software (World Anvil, Campfire, LegendKeeper, Kanka.io, etc)
