Asteroid Maker

ASTEROID MAKER
“Captain… we’ve arrived at our destination, asteroid Julko 438. It appears that this big rock is actually a huge ore full of iron, nickel, and copper. Tell us how we should proceed…”
This random roller is designed to allow Game Maters to quickly roll up brief details about asteroids that the adventuring crew might encounter. Included is the asteroid’s name, type (C,S, or M), and the dominant minerals/elements along with the total amount in weight (tons). Also included is a special roll chart for some random finds as well as a pre-created map of asteroids.

HOW TO USE:
First roll on the Name Table for the first part of the name. Then roll the 10 sided die three times and record each digit to make a 3 digit number. This combined with the roll on the name table becomes the name (example: Corsico 192). Next determine if the asteroid exists in a belt or not. If existing in a belt then determine if the asteroid is located in the inner belt region, the middle, or the outer belt region. After this roll on the appropriate location chart (non-belt, inner, etc.) to find out whether the asteroid is a C, S, or M type.
Next roll 1d6 for the total number of times that you want to roll for the asteroid’s minerals/elements and then roll this many times on the appropriate chart for asteroid type. Roll for the amount (in tons) found for each mineral/element. If you roll a 99 or 100 then choose to either roll again twice or roll once on the Special: Possible Results chart.
