In a recent post, @JohnnFour wrote about Fantastic Factions and Walking the Faction Pyramid. He included a reaction chart for when the pyramid pushes back - as you can now create a diagram of your faction pyramid in Campaign Logger, you may also want to have a generator available for this chart. Here we go:

JSON:
{
    "categories": [
        "NSC",
        "Villain",
        "Reaction"
    ],
    "name": "Villain Reactions",
    "resultPattern": "{reaction}",
    "tables": [
        {
            "name": "reaction",
            "entries": [
                {
                    "m": 9,
                    "v": "{verb}"
                },
                "Use {noun} to {verb}"
            ]
        },
        {
            "name": "verb",
            "entries": [
                "Threaten {noun}",
                "Hurt or damage {noun}",
                "Kidnap or steal {noun}",
                "Blackmail {noun}",
                "Corrupt or tempt {noun}",
                "Ruin the reputation or credibility of {noun}",
                "Kill or destroy {noun}",
                "Turn {noun} against them",
                "Befriend or acquire {noun}"
            ]
        },
        {
            "name": "noun",
            "entries": [
                "an Ally",
                "a Loved one",
                "a Friend",
                "an Important place",
                "an Important thing",
                "an Allied organization",
                "a Member of the group",
                "an Innocent"
            ]
        }
    ]
}

To get this running for you:
  • Sign in to the Generator UI
  • On the home screen click "New":

  • Switch to JSON:

  • Delete the sample code
  • Paste the code above
  • Validate
  • Save
  • Login to Campaign Logger vNext
  • Navigate into a log of your choice (or create one if you don't have one already)
  • On the right side, in the generators menu, expand "Villain" and select "Villain Reactions":

  • Done!
