3 Popular Oracles

Rate this Entry
If you really liked your Soloing experience and feel like this guide is too basic for your needs, or if you want everything in FGU readily available, here is the most popular 3 Oracles that are comprehensive. If you're on a budget, only one of them is enough.

EDIT: Mythic's price was wrong. It's not 20$, it's 25$.
3 Paid Oracles

## 5th Edition Solo Rules (Fantasy Grounds) - 4$

https://www.dmsguild.com/product/319...antasy-Grounds

This simple module (for D&D) takes the form of a Storyboard giving solo role play advice and links to tables for a range of oracles. You can output your oracles answers either to story entries or directly to the chat window where it becomes part of your game log. Here's a [youtube guide] for it.

The revolutionary Oracle that started it all. Its importance is that it contains detailed scene rules and important goals / characters tracking. It's Oracle "Fate Chart" is more complex than the one provided in the guide but also more professional. They added a new Fate Check system to receive answers without a chart.


## The Solo Adventurer's Toolbox (Fantasy Grounds) - 25$

https://www.dmsguild.com/product/263...antasy-Grounds

This Toolbox has many tables to randomly determine or dress your places, NPCs, monsters, encounters, weather, merchants, quests, loot, etc. with an easy to use Oracle. An example of solo gameplay using the toolbox provided at the end of it. Note that some tables in it links to Core D&D modules such as Dungeon Master's Guide and Monster's Manual, [EDIT: Next part is only true for the PDF] but it is also a setting-agnostic source. Many tables in it can be used in any kind of setting.

NOTE: Latter two also have book/pdf versions.


Supplements for the Oracles

NOTE:
No need to buy any of these unless you want more content at later stages of your experience. But you'll need an Oracle of your choice -not necessarily above ones. Some Solo RPG Systems come with their own Oracles.


## UNE (Universal NPC Emulator) - 5$

https://forge.fantasygrounds.com/shop/items/1511/view

With just a handful of automated dice rolls, UNE can help create a surprising non-player character (NPC) with its motivations.
