D&D 5e Follower Charts
Follower Charts are designed for parties that have started to gain higher levels (over level 10) have a group stronghold or base of operations and are starting to grow in fame as their adventures continue.
A player who performs a great feat, defeats a notable enemy, constructs a personal stronghold, or reaches a certain level could get the chance to roll on their Followers Chart as an additional reward.
Recommended to give 1 Follower Chart roll at levels 10, 14, 18, 20, when a group stronghold is built/seized, and when a player constructs a personal stronghold. Extra rolls could be given at the end of a large story arc or personal quest. More or less rolls could be granted to increase or limit the impact of followers on the game.
Follower Behavour
A follower will stay at the group's stronghold, if requested they will follow the party or go off on seperate missions. Followers at the stronghold can help with construction, gathering supplies or even magical enchanting, researching or similar tasks if they have the capability.
They are followers however, not slaves. If treated against their values or treated as disposable they may choose to leave the player.
Roleplaying Followers
"1d10 pilgrims... ok lets see Bob, Doug, Elizabeth...."
In many cases your group isn't going to care about the details and personalities about groups of their less powerful followers. Its up to the DM and the players to decide what level of detail to go into. Most likely they will just want names, personalities etc about the most powerful.
As a DM you could even let your players determine their follower's names, backstories, etc
Combat
To make things easier as the DM have the players run the followers they bring into combat, but make it clear that you can override a poor decision (ie pointlessly sacrificing their life for no reason)
High Level Followers
A roll of 75 or higher may give a high level follower (ex: An Adult Dragon, Gryosphinx, or Deva). These creatures will work to help the party but not necessarily constantly. An adult dragon still needs time to defend its territory, hunt for treasure etc, and will leave the party to do so.
Before your players roll on their chart, try to think ahead and have a good reason a high level follower might join them, just to be prepared.
Tip: The problems a high level creature like this might be dealing with could be used to setup your next higher level adventure.
Sources
Many follower stats can be found from the Monster Manual, exceptions have their sources at the bottom of the page. Substitution ideas have been provided in cases where you don't have the source documents, noted with OR, though these may be more 'normal' or 'boring' options (however maybe a better fit with certain campaigns).
Additional sources include: Princes of the Apocalypse, King's Army, Tome of Beasts and Sprouting Chaos
Barbarians
A powerful barbarian may attract many warriors with similar rage control issues, as well as various tribesmen, nomads and powerful creatures during their adventures
