The second title in the 10x Series.
102 Ready-to-Play Patrons is a system-neutral collection of powerful figures, organizations, and entities designed to give Game Masters immediate sources of quests, protection, conflict, and long-term campaign direction.
Need a demonic patron for a Warlock? A paladin lord who sends the party on sacred missions? A duke powerful enough to shield the characters from a hostile faction? Or a barbarian king looking for ruthless champions to expand his rule? Here you will find patrons ready to drop into almost any fantasy campaign.
The book is divided into seven categories: Mortal, Employer, Ruling, Factional, Immortal, Supernatural, and Extraplanar. Each patron is presented with a clear snapshot of who they are, including their Personality, Motivation, Secret, and practical guidance on how to use them in play.
These patrons are built to do more than hand out quests. They can become allies, rivals, manipulators, protectors, political sponsors, recurring threats, or the force that keeps an entire campaign moving.
No game statistics are provided. This is intentional: the focus is on roleplaying function and narrative utility, making each patron easy to adapt across different fantasy systems and power levels.
102 Ready-to-Play Patrons gives you ready-made campaign anchors you can introduce in minutes and develop for months.
