NUELOW at Christmas: Day One

Here's a random adventure idea (or maybe the start-point for an adventure) generator set around Christmas time.

WHO IS YELLING AND SANTA CLAUS AND WHY?
Santa being yelled at by a redhead

Roll 1d6 against the tables below to determine the identity of the Redhead confronting Santa Claus and why she's upset with him. Make note of the results and then let your imagination build an adventure around them!

WHO IS SHE?
1. The new shop steward of the elves who work at Santa's Workshop.
2. The older sister of two brothers who she is raising by herself after 
     their parents were killed.
3. A newly accredited FBI agent.
4. L.L. Hundal of NUELOW Games.
5. A werefox in her human form.
6. Roll two more times on the table. Both results apply to who she is.

WHY IS SHE YELLING AT SANTA CLAUS?
1. She has discovered he's a fake; it's actually Steve Miller of 
    NUELOW Games.
2. The elves at Santa's Workshop are going on strike, demanding
    better pay, better hours, and beds at least as nice as those 
     enjoyed by the reindeer.
3. She wants herself and her boyfriend off the Naughty List...
    or promises this will be Santa's last Christmas.
4. She wants her little brothers to get decent gifts this year, 
    instead of just a bunch of cheap crap from Overstock.com. 
5. She wants Santa to use his supernatural knowledge of who's 
    where and who's been good or bad to find her parents that 
    have been kidnapped and are being held for ransom.
6. As with #5, but she wants Santa to use his powers to take her 
    to the porch pirates who stole the Christmas presents she'd 
     ordered for her family and friends after the Amazon Delivery 
     Guy left the packages by her front door.

HOW DO THE PLAYER CHARACTERS GET INVOLVED
(OPTIONAL)
1-2. Santa comes to them for help with the mission/protection.
3-4. The Redhead comes to them for help with confronting 
        Santa Claus and the subsequent mission.
5-6. One of the Redhead and Santa's targets comes for help.

Now it's up to you to come up with a scenario to entertain and thrill the players at your gaming table, be it real or virtual. And if you feel like sharing your Christmas gift to them with the rest of us, pleas submit your ideas. We'll post them to the blog and our Facebook page!
