RQ Encounter Generator (for RQ6) (the creation of skoll (his nickname in thedesignmechanism forums)) has grown lately to have quite a bit of new features and content. Content is crowd sourced.
So for the hard working GM’s there is now an easy way to generate many types of enemies. You need a herd of allosaurs – click, select number press generate and unleash doom. The characters finished them off – need a bigger reserve herd – click a number and generate again. Other beasts got attracted to the noise – perhaps a tyrannosaur – click a number and generate again.
Endless supply of Lunar more what you need – pick from the list – generate again. In units nicely formed of up to 40 individuals – they will march to restore peace and order in the name of the Moon again.
Town guards noticed your character’s getaway from the second story job – click a number and generate.
Serpent People to fill your jungle with silent death – select from the list.
A number of templates have already been created for Gloranthan, Monster Island, General Fantasy settings by the users of the system.

Need a new kind of enemy – use the templates from existing races and templates, modify to your heart’s content and create away. http://ouropa.planeetta.com/rq_tools/enemygen/instructions/
Need new feature that does not exist – there is a discussion thread at the Design Mechanism forum to discuss new features.
September 8, 2013 at 5:02 pm #5703Richard GormanSpectatorQuite superb. Big thanks to Skoll and Hannu-Kokko for the link.
September 30, 2013 at 5:05 am #5987Hannu KokkoSpectatorRQ Encounters has a new version out:
Main new features:
1. You can create and save a party of enemies encountered together. For example “Dragonewts on a Warpath: 2d3 dragonewt scouts, 4 dragonewt beaked warriors – skilled, 1 dragonewt beaked warrior elite, 5 demibirds”. Party can have notes as well.
2. PDF export of the generated results
3. Filter the enemies by “All/Glorantha/Monster Island/General fantasy”.
4. Generate button to all the template pages.
5. Improvements in printing
Content has also grown quite a bit. Currently there are over 250 enemy templates including 30 group templates for available and you can easily create more from scratch or from existing ones. Over 120 creature types/races are represented.

December 10, 2013 at 7:20 pm #6364Hannu KokkoSpectatorThanks. Here is the latest update
RQ Encounter tool has some new features – December edition
An update on the features and content created since start of November.
http://ouropa.planeetta.com/rq_tools/enemygen/
http://ouropa.planeetta.com/rq_tools/enemygen/whats_new/Features
Added “Do you feel lucky?” -button. Clicking the button will generate 6 instances of a randomly picked enemy based on the current filter plus search term
Added support for mysticism. To start creating mystics, create a new template, add the skills Meditations and Mysticism to it and select the talents. If you can’t see the talent list after adding the skills, hit F5 to force the browser to reload javascript.
Added support for elementals. To create a new elemental, select Elemental from the race list. Note: The calculation of the elemental hit points relies on POW being entered in format used in the rulebook, eg. 1d6+12 for Intensity 4.
Added support for NPC random names. When specifying the template, you can select a namelist for the template. When the enemies are being generated based on the template, each enemy gets a random name from the list. Current lists include names for Orlanthi, Monster Island residents and Generic Fantasy, and more are on their way. If you have a name list you’d like to add, drop me a note.
One can select an enemy feature item from a list – useful for example for having people from a certain tribe or a certain combat trait instead of a random oneEncounters
Most of the Monster Island creatures can now be generated.
Many Afadjanni, Kareeshtu and other Pamaltelan enemies exist now including Mother of Monsters and her brood.
Monster Island Daily Event as an example of a what might happen during a day in Monster Island http://ouropa.planeetta.com/rq_tools/enemygen/party/160/
Mystics – a few example mystics created for example: Disciple of Dervishes of Copper Sands http://ouropa.planeetta.com/rq_tools/enemygen/enemy_template/1007/
Sorcery orders – experimental way of creating sorcery orders and creating more colorful sorcerers in the context of Monster Island http://ouropa.planeetta.com/rq_tools/enemygen/enemy_template/1014/
If you search for Monster Island and select as a filter with the appropriate terrain type (cloud forest, jungle, sea, flora, mountains, high plateau) and press “Do you feel lucky” you will generate a random enemy from that locale.
Elemental spirits and elementals
Maranci’s found items list incorporated as Encounter Feature.

April 6, 2014 at 10:56 pm #7427Simon BraySpectatorIf I could make a suggestion? The Calari as I wrote them use black leather armour or chitin from Lucan timinits with leopard skin cloaks. They almost always use the Black Baboons and /or leopards when hunting. The favour spears and nets for hunting and all use fighting claws. They began as a Hsunchen tribe from the forests of Laskal who allied early on with Garangodos, I think their “God” is actually a Great spirit. They were in part inspired by the Medjay of Egypt, I also think they have no love of the Bat People.
If I get a chance Hannu I will email you the second Fonritan Freeform as a reference document, which done to fit closer to the Guide.

April 7, 2014 at 4:06 am #7433Hannu KokkoSpectatorThanks. Will assimilate….
April 7, 2014 at 5:18 am #7434Hannu KokkoSpectatorAssimilated so far. Looking forward to the freeform. Any ideas about the Great Spirit…
April 7, 2014 at 7:30 am #7436Simon BraySpectatorI think you could keep him as a god, I know this whole Misapplied Worship thing was thrown out recently to some degree, but Greg insisted to Martin Hawley and myself that Fonrit is one of the worst places for misapplied worship, they often worship Spirits in a Godlike manner.
