    • Name, species, and occupation
    • Alignment and personality traits
    • Physical appearance and voice description
    • Motivation and backstory hook
  4. Click Re-generate to roll a new NPC
  5. Click Save as NPC to add them directly to your campaign
  6. Click Save as Template to save to your DM Template library

Loot Generator

  3. Copy the result or use it as inspiration for your Party Loot Tracker

Encounter Hook Generator

  2. Click Generate
  3. Get a random adventure premise, conflict, or event to drop into your session

Tavern Generator

Generate a complete tavern with atmosphere:

  1. Go to your campaign → Tavern Generator
  2. Click Generate
  3. Get a tavern name, description, atmosphere, and notable patrons

Name Generator

Generate D&D-style names for any species:

  2. Select a species
  3. Click Generate to get a list of names
  4. Use the names for NPCs, locations, or player characters

Tips

  • Use the NPC Generator mid-session when players go somewhere unexpected and you need a shopkeeper or guard instantly
  • Save generated NPCs as DM Templates to reuse them across campaigns
  • The generators work well alongside the Quick Reference Panel — pop open the panel for dice and rules while generating content
