They have an offer.
You choose the reply.

Adventurers repairing a flower stall while a noble observer and an aide notice them
An unexpected admirer. A meaningful offer.Signs, terms and private context for the Dungeon Master.

A good impression becomes a story

The deed. The admirer. The offer.

Turn useful attention into a choice at the table.

Someone saw what happened

Start with what the party did and what impressed the observer. Connect the admiration to courage, kindness, skill or another reason that suits the scene.

Give the party a real choice

Create a clear offer with value, terms and timing. The players can question it, negotiate, accept or walk away.

The admiration before contact

Someone is watching.

The illustration shows adventurers repairing a flower stall while a noble observer watches and an aide records the moment.

Describe what earned the admiration. Create early signs before the admirer approaches.

From a noticed deed to a useful offer

Admiration with context.

Build the person, the signs and the terms together.

What earned the admiration

Describe the deed or moment that caught attention. Choose courage, cleverness, kindness, skill, style, honesty, ruthlessness or luck as the reason.

A believable admirer

Name the person and choose their influence. An enthusiastic fan and a powerful benefactor have different ways to approach the party and different resources to offer.

Signs before contact

Create two early signs that someone noticed. Give the players something to recognise before the admirer makes their approach.

An approach that fits

Choose how contact happens. Connect the introduction to the deed, the admirer and the kind of offer they are making.

A concrete offer

Create work, a gift, an alliance, information, a position or training. Explain what makes the offer valuable to the party.

Clear strings

Choose the terms, including no strings. Explain what is asked in return without turning a generated offer into an obligation.

When the terms matter

Record when the strings come due. Keep the timing beside the offer so the Dungeon Master can bring it back into play.

Disappointment and private truth

Keep the consequence of disappointing the admirer and the truth behind their admiration in the Dungeon Master record.

Keep and refine sections

Lock, change and edit individual sections. Save versions and reopen the admirer with the signs, contact, influence, offer and terms together.

Views for the table

Copy, download or print the full Dungeon Master record or the player-facing account. Keep influence, strings and hidden truth in the private record.

Deed. Signs. Contact. Offer.

Prepare a scene the party can respond to.

Start with the deed

Describe what happened and why it impressed someone. Choose the admirer and their level of influence.

Show the attention

Create two signs before contact. Decide how the admirer approaches and what the party notices.

Make the offer useful

Select work, a gift, an alliance, information, a position or training. Explain its value and any strings.

Keep the choice open

Record timing, disappointment and private truth. Present the offer while leaving acceptance and action to the players.

What does the generator create?

An unexpected admirer, what impressed them, their influence, two signs beforehand, an approach, a valuable offer, its strings, timing, disappointment and private truth.

What kinds of offers can I make?

Choose work, a gift, an alliance, information, a position or training. Define what makes it valuable and whether it has any strings.

Does the party have to accept?

No. The party can accept, negotiate or refuse. The generator describes the offer and its context; it does not decide what the players do.

What stays private?

The player-facing result contains the deed, admirer, reason for admiration, signs, contact and offer. Influence, strings and hidden truth remain in the Dungeon Master view.

Can I revise and save an admirer?

Lock, change or edit individual sections and save versions. Reopen the record with its signs, approach, influence, offer, terms, timing and private context together.
