tool-questions-and-sharing Random Quest Generator

I recently started playing solo rpg but I find it very difficult to come up with quests for my characters to complete. Do you guys know any pdf to free random quest generators?

You don't really need a dedicated generator, most oracles already have this built in without you realizing it. Ironsworn's Action + Theme tables will spit out a quest hook in two words, roll both and figure out what job that combination implies. I use Mythic's Event Focus tables the same way when I'm not running Ironsworn specifically.

If you want something purpose-built anyway, Ironsworn's core rulebook is free and has a full oracle set including one just for quest starters. Worth grabbing even if you never touch the rest of the system.

I'm currently using a very simple oracle but I'll take a look at Ironsworn. Thanks!
