Roll a D100 to determine the trade good

With a single roll you will to generate a specific trade good that is present on the market, an abandoned warehouse, a sunken ship, a cave of smuggler or a lair of bandits, etcetera.

CHECK THE PRICE (or change it!)

The price refers to the D&D 5 player’s handbook. The price of those trade goods that are not present on the player’s handbook have been extrapolated to obtain a plausible price.

The price comes with a standard unit of measure – lbs., liter, gallon, hit die (for creatures), and others.

CHECK THE LOAD

Conside the load as the basic unit of “packaging” – to use a modern term.

The most common packaging employed are barrels, baskets, jar, case, crate, sack, belt, etcetera.

ROLL THE NUMBER OF LOADS

The #of loads represents how many units of packaging is possible to buy or find.

When buying trade goods you usually buy a variable stock of them.

For example:

  • 2d4 barrels of Ale
  • 2d6 sacks of Flour
  • 2d4 jars of Honey
