`roll_table`

Pack: random-tables · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/roll_table for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Pipeworx original random tables: roll one or more entries from a built-in table — encounters_fantasy, encounters_scifi, encounters_modern, loot, weather, complication, npc_personality, npc_secret, npc_occupation, plot_hook, tavern, rumour, settlement_quirk, npc_full.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`table`	string	yes	Built-in table id, e.g. “loot”, “npc_full”, “encounters_fantasy”. Call list_random_tables to see every id.
`count`	number	no	How many entries to roll, 1-20 (default 1).
`seed`	string	no	Optional seed for a reproducible roll. Omit for fresh randomness; the seed actually used is always returned.
`session_id`	string	no	Optional. Omit for an ordinary independent weighted roll. Pass a session_id (your own first time, or one returned by a previous call) to draw without replacement across calls — hosted only.
