To generate a quest hook, roll 21 (2d20). You choose which die determines the objective and which determines the motivation. If you roll doubles, roll a third d20, and add a second objective to the quest. To generate an ally, combine this table with the the relationship tables.
For example, consider a roll of 14 and 5. The two options are:
- I need help to recover a lost or stolen item in order to woo a love interest.
- I need help to acquire a rare component in order to redeem a crime I commited.
