I made this for a homebrew fantasy setting. Adjust length in years to what's appropriate for your own setting.

Also useful for generating gossip, or something an NPC idly talks about:

"Didja hear about Antino, that explorer everyone was making fun of? Well I heard he discovered a ruined city a couple days ago."
