In a Rogue Trader game we fought an Ork Warboss who had a thing for fruit.

Like, he raided Agri-Worlds and stole all their fruit, then stored it in his asteroid mining station he conquered. He constantly drank fruit juice, ate meat covered in fruit, and even wore fruit dangling from ropes on his Meganob armor (and destroying the fruit threw him into 200% Pissed Off mode). He still did normal Ork shit, but all of his raids were either to get more fruit or to get more Boyz so he could THEN get more fruit.

Probably the most interesting Ork NPC we ever had to deal with.

homemade Random Personality Traits tables are fucking awesome

Personally or in game? Because let me tell you, most games don't even hold a candle to the kind of shit real orks do.

In Rogue Trader a bunch of orks with a Mad Dok leading them decided it was a fantastic idea to invade a water world to get at the promethian deposits. When the locals decided they'd combat them with submarines, the orks just attached water tanks and rebrethers to themselves to then go and fight the submarines in hand to hand combat.

They painted themselves black with white spots and named themselves "Da Orka's"

It was unclear in the setting. He just kept raiding Agri-Worlds and stealing their fruit, so we were contracted to put a stop to it so as to not have entire planets starve.

Out of Character, however, this is exactly what happened, according to our GM:

>We're currently just cruising along, attempting to map out and patrol a region of newly-discovered human worlds that have just been brought under Imperial rule
>Rolling up a planet where we are going to receive a lucrative job on a bunch of his (admittedly quite thorough and interesting) random generator charts , because our GM likes to add a sense of the unexpected when he doesn't have a highly-specific goal in mind for the next session and because it can cause some pretty interesting situations that wouldn't otherwise be thought of
>Planet Type: Agri-World
>Major Export (as economies are important): Fruit
>Economic Competition: None (this meant there were no other planets in the region who could do what they did)
>Planet Development: Moderate (Some cities, basic tech-level, though nothing too extensive or fancy).
>Jurisdiction: None (it was discovered by another Rogue Trader, though he never claimed it, and no other Institution has set up a major shop there, so it's just under basic Imperial control)
>Faith: High
>Loyalty to Imperium: Medium
>Threat: Raiders (Ork Freebootas)
>Threat Level: High

So, we had a cornerstone Agri-World that produced the only meaningful amount of Fruit in the entire system, being raided by Ork freebootas constantly, and all they had to sell was their fruit.

So, the only reason this could be logically occurring was if the Ork Kaptain was somehow obsessed with fruit.

So that's what he was.

Really fun session, all things considered.

I was playing against Space Wolves one time and my opponent fielded Arjac Rockfist with some wolfinators. In the first few turns I was able to kill the termies with killkannons and some MANz that died valiantly, but Arjac made every save or look out sir roll he made. Eventually he was alone. He tried to run this motherfucker around the back of some terrain to get into my backfield and either break shit or just grab linebreaker, but that was a mistake. You see I had a squad of ten grots back there. I had a gretchin take a wound off of Arjac in shooting and then they charged him. Arjac was forced to issue a challenge that my runtherd with grabba stick accepted. Arjac only got one attack because of the grabba stick, so he only killed the runtherd that turn. My grots made their Ld save with a two and on the next turn managed to take off his second wound. Best grots ever.

Orks need reasons to want things now? They like fighting and they like looting. I bet fruit gives you a lot of potential targets as a hoarder.

I sadly don't have them, because I'm not the GM, but I can tell you what they consist of, in addition to the Planet Generator tables already in the Rogue Trader books:

The Random Tables we've got are:

>Planet Type (More random and extensive than the ones in the book)

>Economic size (as it's Rogue Trader, economies are super-important)

>Economic Competition (How many other planets compete with it in the system)

>Major Export (Different, smaller tables for each type of planet)

>Governing Body (What type of government)

>Military Size

>Population Size

>Development Level (Tied into Planet Type)

>Ethnic Homogeneity

>Jurisdiction (Who owns this planet - there can be multiple of these)

>Faith (Devotion to the Imperial Cult)

>Loyalty (Devotion to the Imperium as a governing body)

>Current Threat (Can be multiples)

>Threat Level

Just off the top of my head.

For Random Personality Traits, a few of them were:

>Paranoia

>Obsession (Object)

>Philia (Object/Race)

>Phobia (Object/Race)

>Explosive Temper

>Mood Swings

>Overcompensator (Insecurity)

>Undercompensator (Insecurity)

>Addiction (Drug)

>Addiction (Non-Addictive Substance)

>Atheist

>Superstitious

>Vengeful

>Cold-Blooded

>Sociopath

>Psychopath

>Sincere

>Emotional

>Taciturn

>Absolute Loyalty

>Gelt Loyalty (Loyal to their paycheck)

>Authoritarian

>Anarchist

>Libertarian

>Suspicious

>Trusting

>Stone-faced

That's all I can remember right now.
