Two of my players were sick this week, so no session to report on, unfortunately. However, they have been working on their homework a bit, and here’s a sneak peek at one of the results: Janelle’s character art for Doc, the Angel.
Another part of their homework being to detail their bartering oddments, I came up with a list of suggestions for things that people might commonly trade, with a few interesting trinkets thrown in:
- A scarf
- Rechargable batteries
- A battery charger
- Bottles o’ booze
- Packs of MREs
- Needles and thread
- Pots and pans
- Plastic beads and shiny things
- Fuel
- Ammunition
- Water filtration parts
- Drugs, drugs, drugs
- Canned food
- Birth-control pills
- Painkillers
- Bandages
- Condiment packs (ketchup, hot sauce)
- Spices (esp. salt)
- Coffee
- Alcohol swabs
- Glass bottles
- Candles
- Shoes
- Geiger counter
- Plant/vegetable seeds
- Hard candy
- Chocolate
- Writing utensils
- Paper
- Toilet paper
- Books
- Cigarettes
- Livestock (chickens, etc)
- Soap/Bleach/Cleaning Agents
- Toothbrushes
- Porn
- Chapstick
- Matches/cigarette lighters
- Garden and Hand Tools
- A music box
A good start, at least. Any suggestions to add to the list?
I created a random table using the items in your list on Abulafia (random-generator.com), with attribution of course. I’m thinking it would be cool to expand it with even more items in various categories. You can check it out here: http://www.random-generator.com/index.php?title=Oddments
Awesome! I love Abulafia.
