A City is a Forest - Using Cairn's Forest Tables to Build a City

This was a fun experiment!

One thing I’m interested in after making this post is some bespoke tables for city generation based on those forest-crawl tables.

“Ruins” worked pretty well, but could just be called “Key Structures” or something similar.

The “Hazards” and “Monsters” sections could use some fleshing out, though adapting them to a city might inspire more creative thinking if we leave them as is.

Very interesting read and a great outcome!

I believe Yochai has mentioned a future setting supplement with citycrawls as a theme, I wonder if something like you’re describing will be included.

Either way I’d love to see what you come up with
