I have taken the caravan generator from the Forgotten Realms Hordes accesories. I modified it a little bit to adapt it to Al-Qadim. But before doing more important modifications, I want your input if you have any.

Table 5: Caravan Personnel
Every caravan, no matter the size, has the following members:
A caravan-master, scout, master-merchant, commander of the guard (6th level Fighter)
Thereafter, the number of guards, merchants and dovers depends on the number of loads, type of transport, and value of the caravan. To find the number of drivers, use the ratio given below. The number is a ratio of drivers to animals:
Horses
|
Mules
|
Camels
|
Elephants
|
Ox Carts
|
Monster
|
1/3
|
1/5
|
1/3
|
1/1
|
1/1
|
1/1 (minimum)
|
Exotic animals are always carried in wagons and require one handler for every two animals.
Herds require one drover for every 10 head of livestock..
In addition to the master-merchant, there is another merchant present for each different type of goods carried. If there are any items from Tables 3b or 3c, these are accompanied by an additional merchant.
The number of guards is twice the combined total of all other personnel. The number of guards is doubled if the caravan carries any item from table 3b and triple from 3c.
Fore every 50 guards, there is a sub-commander of 3/4th level. For every 100, there is a priest and a wizard of 5/7th level.
There is 20% chance the caravan is accompanied by 2-8 travelers.
