76 Random Minor NPCs
Here's a table from the book, which you can use for other games, too. The flavor is obviously Colonial America, but swap out some pronouns and this would work for just about anything.
Character Background Details
Here's something fun to use even if you don't have the book (which has this table and a bunch of others). These provide some inspirational ideas for characters in a Colonial American setting (but could probably fit just about any fantastic setting).
Pre-Generated Characters
Here are eight characters you can use right away with Times That Fry Men's Souls. The book is written with completely generic OSR stats, so that you can use it with Lamentations of the Flame Princess or Labyrinth Lord or Basic Fantasy Roleplaying or even The Black Hack, which we playtested with. It is a far cry from the "normal" OSR style, but it works with this book just like it does any other system that uses levels or hit dice. These are the characters we used for playtesting. As for the "class' notes and whatnot, that's just us "hacking." The actual book does not contain rules for classes and things like that - it's simply setting material and "by the book" stats for the creatures and people encountered.
High-Resolution Campaign Map
If the color map on the back of the book is too small for you, try this big version. You can take this to a print shop and have 'em print it out on 11x17 - it scales up nicely and looks great. This is a public domain image so they shouldn't give you any guff.
