Carousing

Carousing covers a workweek of fine food, strong drink, and socializing, with a goal of finding some contacts. Contacts are NPCs who now share a bond with the character. Each one either owes the character a favor or has some reason to bear a grudge. A hostile contact works against the character, placing obstacles but stopping short of committing a crime or a violent act. Allied contacts are friends who will render aid to the character, but not at the risk of their lives. A contact provides help once, not help for life. It is up to the DM to decide how the contact fits into the campaign (if at all), and the help that they provide. For more information, see page 127 of Xanathar's Guide to Everything.

1. Have the player perform a Charisma (Persuasion) roll, and enter the roll in the appropriate field.
2. Have the player choose which class of people they wish to carouse with (lower-class 10gp, middle-class 25gp, upper-class 250gp).
3. If the player wishes to carouse with the upper-class, the DM must decide if the player is welcome in that class. If not, the DM may (optional) have the player make a disguise kit and deception check to see if he can fit in before they begin carousing. This generator does not provide any disguise/deception check, as the DC for the check would be up to the DM.
4. There is a 10% chance that a complication will occur while carousing. If a complication occurs, it is up to the DM to decide if they are used or not.

Carousing Complication

Characters who carouse risk bar brawls, accumulating a cloud of nasty rumors, and building a bad reputation around town. As a rule of thumb, a character has a 10 percent chance of triggering a complication for each workweek of carousing. The DM may use the tables below, make up their own complication, or choose not to have any complications at all.
