Even in a sleepy village on the quiet corner of a fantasy map, it need not be the case that every day is the same. A GM or worldbuilder can insert a fantasy festival to shake things up a bit.
In this post, a press of a button will generate a random fantasy festival. You just get a name, but perhaps that’s enough to weave the story behind it, the traditions, food and celebrations that accompany the event.
Festival
Why write a fantasy festival name generator? Two reasons.
Firstly, there’s no harm in adding another generator to the site. There are a few others already such as the tavern generator, cult generator and the creaky merchant wagon generator.
Secondly, the RPG Blog Carnival has themed May with Festivals, Holidays, and Birthdays with Full Moon Storytelling the host.
Full Moon suggests a few ways and reasons to integrate festivals and holidays into your campaign, including fetch quests, to introduce a new culture or as a change of pace.
