From publisher blurb:
Alphabet Soup is a comprehensive guide to words commonly (and uncommonly) found in games or used by gamers. It provides quick, easy definitions in lexicon form: gaming terms, definitions, historical context, mythological terms. It even gives gamemasters advice on how they can use them in their games. It works like an encyclopedia of random bits, only these random bits are things I think are interesting for gamemasters.
In this particular edition, I've provided a series of 1d20 charts for creating PCs and NPCs for roleplaying. There are 13 charts total, though three of these are focused on fantasy names. The remaining charts are for any genre.
A sample roll might result in Adar the ropemaker being covered in scars with a brusque personality and a towering physique. Or perhaps there's a modern NPC who dressed sloppy and has an aged face, who is looking to start over. Has he moved to a remote place? Or does he blend into an urban sprawl? There are so many combinations on these charts, you'll never run out of ideas for characters.
