Inspired by Fantasy Flight Games' Deathwatch Role-playing Game's Space Marine Chapter Creation Tables, these tables let you roll up (or otherwise generate) your very own Parahuman otherwise known as a cape from the Worm universe, for use in the Weaver Dice game taking place in the same setting. This might help if you need characters for a writing or roleplaying project involving parahumans.
Note that some of these are likely to appear more often than other, this is not represented within, if you want to generate an appropriate number of new parahumans for an Endbringer fight for example you'd want to create a set number of simple and simple with one or more secondary powers before randomly generating the rest.
