Since I last posted this on the old crappy forum a while ago, and it needed some serious updating, here it is again!

Random Plane Tables
For when you(r character) planeswalk(s) blindly and you don’t have a Planechase deck handy.

Roll 20-sided dice.
Subtables let you find a random continent or other region on some large planes.
If you ever roll 18 three times in a row, go to the last table (Table 8).
Reroll whatever results don’t fit the story.


first roll
Spoiler


1-3: Table 1
Spoiler


4-6: Table 2
Spoiler


7-9: Table 3 (the Shard and neighbors)
Spoiler


10-12: Table 4 (M:EM planes)
Spoiler


13-15: Table 5 (M:EM plane drafts)
Spoiler


16-18: Table 6 (miscelaneous)(new planes would fit here)
Spoiler


Table 7: phenomena! (if you want to randomize them too)
Spoiler


Table 8: normally not reached at random:
Spoiler

If some time opens up, I'll write a second planechase poem in celebration. Thanks, Arcades Sabboth!

Yeah if you want to take the time, this is basically the system used within my randomizer:

Spoiler


The different functions read from bottom to top, percentages are controlled with the percent signs (which determine how often the options appear within the list--so the one-off Planechase planes that we don't have much info on each appear one out of every three "rolls")

Subregions should follow the syntax that Dominaria follows.

EDIT: Whoops, I didn't realize you started a new thread for this. Sorry, that was kinda rude. I need to get some sleep...

Anyway, this is, obviously, great.

Okay, I have written another Planechase poem based on this set of tables. All of the locations were genuine rolls. Enjoy!

My Path


Planechase II

I'm glad you liked it! I always enjoy hearing people's reactions to my poetry (particularly when it's positive!)
