I made a random encounter generator for my Marvel game and I figured I'd share it in case anyone else was interested in it. I try to incorporate a some of the everyday aspects of superheroes into my game so this encounter chart has that as well.

I like it. Looks like it would fit nicely into Inspiration Pad Pro.
A high post count is indicative of little more than one having the time to post frequently.
It does not mean a person is more knowledgeable on any given topic than anyone else.

Its a neat little application that lets you create customized automated random tables.
You can find it here: [ www.nbos.com]
I use it all the time for everything from weather effects, names of people and places, and even whole NPCs. I started building a villains encounter list based on general power levels ( using "Street Level," "Powerful," and "Cosmic" as my levels), but I wouldn't really call it a random encounter table.

Nice job!
The random encounters in "New York, New York" still set the bar for me, though. Enough flesh to gorge it down raw, but bare-bones enough to tinker with it and to add it to the game without prior prep.

Hey, if anyone could replace the link in the first post with this file, I'd appreciate. I've been getting a requests randomly recently for access to the encounter generator and I'd rather people didn't request access from me and just had it. I don't seem to be able to edit the old post.
Thanks!

I should quote you so you'll get a notice, I hope, but either way, go for it.

Any chance you could share with me the word doc you created it from? It'll be easier to incorporate it into our MP issue template.
Thanks!

I couldn't send you a PM. Looks like some protocol issues? Anyways if you could credit it as both my username (Username) and my real name Jacob, that would be my preference, Otherwise, just use my username. Thank you for asking (in the message), I appreciate it.

I have a plot generator in the JMCC that is inspired by the New York, New York tables.

It's up on the downloads page of FASERIP.org as we discussed anyway. Most popular download so far, followed by the male realistic superhero character sheet.

Awesome! I've been meaning to post some other stuff, but coaching has kept my evenings too busy.
