Historical Events - Seasonal Events

Seasonal Events are events that take place on the provincial level. That is the Shire or County.  Everyone in the realm is probably aware of the events, and neighboring realms if the Shire or County shares a border as well.

  2. Roll 1d8 on the Event table
  3. Roll1d6 on the Table the corresponds to the result of Event table.
