D20 Things That Might Go Wrong If You Have Too Many Hirelings

1. Hirelings form a hero-cult around you. There will be sectarian strife as the cult splinters between charismatic leaders and iconoclastic heretics, and the whole lot will turn on you if you fall short of their heroic ideal.

2. One hireling stabs another over a disputed gamble.

3. A hireling falls madly in love with you, will covertly work to drive off or kill other members of the party so that they can be with you alone.

4. A hireling trips and breaks their leg, the whole party moves at half speed unless they’re provided with a mount, healed, or abandoned.

5. Two hirelings elope, leaving the party.

6. A hireling sneaks off ahead on your route, thinking they can get to any treasure before you.

7. A hireling sells out your location and weaknesses to some nearby bandits.

8. Your hirelings start a fight club. Each day one is randomly injured until it’s broken up... however this may be bad for their morale unless alternative entertainment is provided.

9. Intestinal parasites run amok through the camp. Rations are consumed at twice normal rate until the infected are cured or excised.

10. A hireling is turned to a rival faction, becomes double agent.

11. A hireling’s mind breaks from stress and they run off screaming.

12. A hireling becomes obsessed with monsters and their power, will defect from the party to serve the next one encountered with more HD than you.

13. Your hirelings are possessed by a bloody fervour. They automatically pass any morale checks, but will no longer retreat from combat for 1d6 days.

14. A hireling offends a local spirit. Suffer terrible weather until the hireling is sacrificed, the spirit is appeased, or you leave the region.

15. Dysentery strikes your hirelings. Until they’re cured or leave the party you can never surprise enemies due to the preceding stench.

16. A hireling blunders into a nearby trap.

17. Hirelings unionize to demand higher wages and safer working conditions.

18. A hireling becomes inspired by natural beauty, and works furiously to complete a work of art. They’ll remain where they are, and in 1d6 days will have a finished work worth 1d6x100 silver. If left to fend for themself there is a 20% chance per day they’ll die.

19. A hireling begins collecting trophies from everything you kill, and starts smelling very gross. They will no longer be tolerated in civilized locales.

20. Your hirelings spook each other with ghost stories. For 1d6 days they suffer -2 morale.

D6x6 Notable Nothics

This post is dedicated to friend of the blog Nothic's Eye.

Special thanks to Spwack for the generator generator here: meanderingbanter.blogspot.com/2018/10/automatic-list-to-html-translator-v2.html

D6	This nothic's eye
1	appears to be a many-faceted blue-and-black gemstone - on closer inspection it's clear that it's simply got so many irises and pupils crowded together that they've been compressed together into geodesic shape.
2	is much too big for its socket, split like a half-crushed grape and perpetually leaking vitreous fluid.
3	can extend some distance from its face on a slimy stalk of raw nerves and muscle.
4	is infested with an iridescent cataract which bears visions of impossible worlds within its miniscule whorls.
5	has been pierced acupuncture-like with the splinter-thin shards of mirrors.
6	bears a flaming iris of an as-yet-unknown colour and a pupil which is a bottomless hole.

D6	This nothic's gaze
1	twists along angles that'd make you sick to see, allowing it to peer around corners and into hearts and pockets.
2	inflicts a pernicious nausea - void your stomach, and its spilled contents will reanimate into a sloppy, stinking ooze.
3	temporarily animates parts of your skeleton while still within your body, tearing you apart from the inside.
4	sees a short while into the future, and may superimpose over and make actual and current the damaged, degraded versions of things they perceive.
5	bores many trypophobia-inducing pupil-holes in whatever they stare at.
6	infests those who meet it with parasitic worms, hatching into their vitreous fluid.

D6	This nothic was
1	a diviner who looked beyond the limits of the comprehensible universe, where something crawled in through their vision like a burglar through a broken window and took up malforming residence in their soul.
2	an ambitious adventurer who replaced one of their own ocular orbs with a magical glass eye found in an ancient ruin, which became terribly cursed when certain forgotten conditions weren't met.
3	a practitioner of the evil eye whose many inflictions of malign sight were reflected back at them, mutilating their body and mind.
4	just a poor bystander who witnessed an angel's fall from heaven.
5	an antiquarian who perused an old, evil book written by a long-dead wizard - a book which recorded the wizard in such detail that any who read it would be turned into a replica of that wizard, only time and mold degraded the fidelity of the replication.
6	a skeptic who tricked the gods into believing he held an object beyond their omniscience, and was cursed when the deception was discovered.

D6	This nothic is
1	a spymaster who spares no thought to the political utility of the secrets it collects, only that someone tried to conceal them from it.
2	an assassin motivated by a complex, likely maddened parapolitical ideology.
3	worshiped by a gnostic cult, who put out one of their own eyes in homage.
4	a dark oracle who dispenses cruel truths and manipulative partial revelations.
5	the head of a criminal organization who takes voyeuristic pleasure from the depravity of its mooks.
6	a jealous dealer in occult goods and knowledge, a middle-man of the maleficars' underworld.

D6	This nothic lairs
1	in the central tower of a panopticon, its immaculate nest armed with a field gun which can be swiveled to fire on any of the place's cells.
2	in the moth-clouded basement of a great library, among stacks of discarded and unredacted tomes.
3	in a lighthouse - its lamp made into an observatory-lens, its former crew made into macabre, sigil-scrim'd decorations.
4	in the luxuriously-appointed attic of a manor belonging to a nobleman the nothic drove mad.
5	among the charred ruins of a glassmaker's workshop, the furnace and tools reworked into unseemly implements.
6	at the bottom of a sinkhole carved with coiling stairs, around a perfectly-still pool of water within.

D6	This nothic seeks
1	a fallen star with fortune-warping power - the area surrounding its impact-crater rife with the unlikeliest coincidences.
2	to kidnap a religious authority who can absolve it of its many sins.
3	to put together a heist to steal a legendary work of art from the vault of a rich and paranoid collector.
4	the means to hollow the soul from a human body, and thereby create the perfect puppet to go about unnoticed in society.
5	the secrets of undeath, to extend its terrible existence.
6	the utter humiliation and ruin of a rival, to leave them alive and wretched among the wreckage of their legacy.
