101 Patrons

101 Patrons provides Traveller referees with a collection of exciting Patrons and Situations, each with multiple possible outcomes (to keep your players guessing).

Patrons always have a task that needs doing, often dangerous, sometimes illegal, occasionally heroic. But does the patron have an ulterior motive? Do the rewards match the risks? That’s for the adventurers to decide.

Lady Luck can sometimes throw even the best-prepared adventurers into a hazardous Situation where fast thinking and decisive action is needed to save the day.

Included are:

• Patrons looking to employ the adventurers (classified by the required skills and equipment) each with multiple possible plot reasons
• Situations where the adventurers simply find themselves involved by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, again with multiple possible plot outcomes
• An Adventure Generator based around the principle of “36 Dramatic Situations”
• A collection of example Starport Notices for background ‘colour’
• 50 World Seeds to create a quick bit of colour for a new planet
• An Index to help you quickly find the fill-in plot hook that you need, right now!

One of the largest 101 Books released by BITS, 101 Patrons is a great aid to any Traveller referee looking to create a scenario, or simply as a ‘filler’ adventure for a gaming session. Complement this with 101 Plots and you should never be caught out for challenging adventures to throw at your players.

For those who buy Mongoose Publishing products, you may be interested to know that 101 Patrons is included in the content of their Supplement 16: Adventure Seeds (but we'd be very happy if you chose to buy our original version!)
