D&D Backstory Roll Chart
Sometimes you just need a roll chart to quickly get those backstory juices flowing!
So enjoy the prompts my fellow adventurer! These were soooooo fun to create!
Go on! Roll a D20!
1. Famous for your spicy pickles, you now sell your recipes for quite a pretty copper! Funny thing though… pickles send you into sneezing attacks so you tend to stay away from them unless drunk.
2 You once swallowed a whole spider that was hiding in your tea and since then have vowed to find a way to eradicate the nasty things. You sneeze when you're near old women.
3 Your grandfather taught you the art of training small rodents to do household chores and after he passed, you expanded the business and have since started selling the little creatures at a local auction. You also think that beards are hideous.
4 You used to be the florist for a famous castle until one of the children ate a poisonous flower from one of the wedding bouquets. You also once killed a cat by tripping in the street and falling on top of the poor thing.
5 You are the greatest fisherman for 103 miles. Or at least that's what everyone tells you… But you recently became allergic to water and now break out in horrible hives whenever your skin touches it. You also have a pet deer.
6 You are a rogue animal hunter. You specialize in finding and rescuing animals, pets, or livestock that have gone missing. You have a weakness for cinnamon rolls.
7 You own a famous chipmunk that paints and have been able to make quite the living by selling his paintings. You love turtles.
8 You've grown quite the business by reviewing taverns and offering paid advice on how to make things… cleaner… and not so janky. You've also never slept outside a day in your life.
9 Once you found a treasure stash and was able to quite your job. But… the money has almost run out so you're turned to carving cute little animal figurines out of bone. You're also absolutely stunning.
10 You're a traveling wild animal assassin and make your living from dangerous creature bounties. You're really allergic to poison Ivy.
11 You are quite drawn to the forests and have a vast collection of dead butterflies, bird feathers, and bug skeletons. You've never drunk a mug of ale in your life… until recently.
12 People know you as the "seed person". No matter what type of plant, weed, or vegetable they want… you've got a seed for that. You also have freakishly small hands for someone your size.
13 You've become addicted to archery. You practice shooting your bow every single day, no matter what the weather is like. And you're getting pretty dang good at it if you do say so yourself. You do have a weakness for olives though… they're so good…
14 You own a perfume shop but have a secret poker club in the basement. You're enemies with the town butcher though… and you can't remember why.
15 You train horses. And might just be the best in the business. But you recently picked up a strange disease and haven't found out what it is.
16 You're a professional storyteller and travel from tavern to tavern spinning yarns and earning enough to fund your ale and lodgings each night. What more could you ask for. You have a secret pet that sneaks you snacks.
17 You're a sign maker. But you hate your job and are trying to learn how to make hats instead. It's not going well. People say you make the best baked potatoes they've ever tasted though. Maybe you should change careers… again.
18 You're a novice tracker and often get sidetracked by pretty new wildflowers and mushrooms. Your clients usually aren't very pleased, but you tend to win them over by giving them some of your incredible flower crafts. For free of course.
19 You used to train goats for the annual goat races, but since the event has lost interest over the years, you're scrambling to learn a new skill. Maybe you should open up a cornbread shop. Your gramma used to tell you, “Sweetie you are the best cornbread maker on earth.” Dang…Hopefully she was right…
20 You win any eating competition you come across and have become somewhat of a celebrity. Funny thing is… you dislike most foods except raisins, cheese and tea.
