THE BOOK OF IMPERIAL NAMES

This document aims to provide gamemasters with a number of ways to enhance their Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay campaigns. By using the tables, it is possible to generate a

wide variety of names for NPCs, businesses, parts of town, and many other things in the Empire. Add detail to NPCs and businesses with tables to determine their line of work and

level of Craftsmanship (see Old World Armoury, p. 92), and any material goods their vocation involves. While these lists do not cover every possible trade good in the Old World,

they should be used as springboards for ideas to include in your game.

MATERIALS AND SERVICES

Many careers involve a material good of some kind. Let’s look at the commodity of wood

to illustrate just how many careers may come into contact with this material good.

Woodsmen perform the hard work of cutting down trees. Log-floaters may then take felled

timber and send it downriver to a sawmill. The logs may be cut into smaller sections and

loaded onto carts by local labourers , and then transported by cart drivers who often hire

armed guards to protect against thieves and beasts of the wild. At a sawmill, the logs are

cut into planks by sawyers . Stacked lumber may be bought wholesale by merchants or

other purchasers, and then transported again to their lumber yards or warehouses. The

merchant (sometimes through an intermediary ) sells the lumber to any interested buyers at

retail prices. Those buyers may be boatbuilders , carpenters , fence-makers , and so on.

Through their efforts the lumber is turned into boats, houses and walls. And of course,

Imperial tax collectors will pay everyone a visit to take their percentage of the trade,

assuming the business is licit to begin with.

100

Some careers are concerned with providing an immaterial service. Scholars for instance

need study and lecture and little else, trading perhaps in crusty books and knowledge only.

Such characters are likely to be independently wealthy to afford such leisurely pursuits!

Other examples inclue horse groomers, who provide no product other than a shiny horse’s

coat, and the common barber who does not actually buy or sell anything aside from a few

minutes’ work with a pair of clippers… unless there is some enterprising Halfling in one’s

village who collects the leavings to include in their special pies.

And so goes commerce in the Old World.

GENERATING BUSINESSES AND VOCATIONS

Visceral: addict, drug dealer, interrogator, whore, torturer

To determine the nature of a business or character’s vocation, roll on the Line of Work Table . The result should narrow down the kind of work being done, and should suggest ways

that it might deal in a material good, be they caramels or coffins. To determine what the material, roll on the Goods Table . The range and success of a business can be detemined

by a roll on the Business Craftsmanship Table . Note that rolling on each of these tables to generate a random result may generate unusual businesses. It may be best to choose one

or two elements of the business and dice for the others, and reject any results that contradict.
