Optional RNG CAF with jobs round 1
This game will have a dice option and a choice option! You can decide to play one way or the other, or do both and compare your choice family vs. randomly generated family. You can also decide to do something like using the dice for genders but free choice for the names, as long as you're consistent (so whatever you do in round 1 is what you have to do for the whole game).
Dice if you're using them: http://www.brockjones.com/dieroller/dice.htm
----Round 1: Name the starting couple. SO1:
SO2: RNG option--
-Roll a d20 for each person's gender (19 and 20 are nonbinary, all other odd numbers are boys, and all other even numbers are girls).
-For first and middle names, roll a d10 twice for each person and reroll if you get the same name. For a nonbinary character you can combine the namebanks and use a d20 instead of a d10.
-You can pick whether you're going to choose the order of the first and middle names or let the dice decide, as long as you do it the same way in every round.
-For surnames, roll a d6 for each person and reroll if you get the same name.
-For nicknames, roll a d6 for each person and then choose a nickname based on the category.
-For jobs, roll a d6 for each person. Multiple people can have the same job. boy names: Kasimir Arkady Drustan Jules Vincent Lior Francis Nikolai Herodion Charlesgirl names: Alexandria Tullia Ruth Cosima Rosamund Sylvette Gwen Lucretia Meredith Marensurnames: Baumgarten Williams Weaver Yong Paulauskas Adler jobs: literary agent, bank manager, clockmaker, bus driver, microbiologist, veterinarian nicknames:
1= no nickname
2= obvious nickname (can be based on first, middle, or last name but must be very obvious like Mike for first or middle name Michael or Pauly for surname Paulson)
3= no nickname
4=non-obvious nickname (it's more of a stretch from the original name or it's based on something other than the name, like a physical trait or an inside joke)
5= obvious nickname
6= silly or babyish nickname (only used by family)
