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.

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.
