Vymrrys Building Generator (WIP)

The following table can be used to quickly generate the vertical structure and connectivity of any building for which the DM might need more information. Individual floor layouts would have to be created separately. This is a work in progress and will be updated on and off. 

To start:

  1. Roll a D4+1 (for a regular building) or D10 (for a tall tower, taking only results over 5) to determine how many floors tall the building will be. 
  2. Roll a D6-1 to determine how many connections this building will have to nearby buildings via bridges. 
  3. Roll on the below tables to determine what occupies the floors of the building, the shape of the building, and any interesting features. 
or
  1. Pick and choose to suit your tastes or the where in the city the building is constructed.
