If you would like I will copy the first few posts from here and start you a whole new thread and then it can be as long as it needs to be.  |

Now I've napped and might have a decent list. Don't see how this can interest anyone, but something funny might come from it. Or it might be a useful list for a mad scientist, a master blackmailer, or a politician.
Proper Bribes for the Average NPC
- a cure for Meniere's Disease and/or diabetes would be nice
- a functioning car which would last 20 years without maintenance
- Mordenkainen's Perpetual Ice Cream Machine
- the Elbow of Vecna's brother-in-law, Murphy
--- Murphy, of course, is a chaotic good men's room attendant
----- who is missing one elbow
- Mary Jo Gygax's diary
- Dave Arneson's frog

Is this for everyone to think about?
Roll 1d10:
1 - a fine silhouette portrait of (1d2: 1 - the bribee, 2 - the bribee's crush)
2 - a flute tuned to a scale not in local use (bribee hums the scale for you)
3 - bribee asks for something (roll again on this table) but will actually accept anything or nothing
4 - the skin of a specific wolf that has been harrying sheep (cattle, whatever). Bribee will know whether it's the right one and may cry if it's not.
5 - a jar of blood that doesn't clot
6 - "something I can really count on, you know?"
7 - an item that will create, on command, the sound of (roll 1d2 for the sound requested: 1 - a local bird calling, 2 - monks chanting)
8 - an orphaned fox cub ("but don't YOU orphan it!")
9 - a song never heard in these parts before
10 - a cheap reproduction of a piece of expensive jewelry owned (perhaps surprisingly) by the bribee
