Authority, Weak and Distant

Generate the weak, distant authority that claims a frontier settlement and rarely shows up.

Generate the distant power that claims a frontier settlement and the thin presence it keeps there. Seven fields cover Who Claims This Place (a chartered company in receivership, an empress whose clerks renew the charter every ten years), Their Presence Here, What They Demand, What They Provide, The Representative, When They Last Mattered, and What Would Bring Them Back. The results describe a power that demands much, provides little, and acts through one overworked representative. Use it to set up political intrigue, justify why nobody is coming to help, or hand a party a problem that paperwork cannot solve.

This generator creates: Who Claims This Place, Their Presence Here, What They Demand, What They Provide, The Representative, When They Last Mattered, What Would Bring Them Back.
