Random GMing links

Post your links to online tools, like NPC and map generators, that you find useful. Help everyone share the goodness!

Here are a couple of quick ones that I use regularly.

First, we must start with the EnWorld Online Gaming Toolbox. This has a number of generaters and it's right here!

Next, look at Random RPG. Lots of randomy goodness in encounters, traps, etc.

Third, The Doomsday Book. Set up demographics for your medieval cities quickly and easily.

Fourth, Squid.org. Lots of names and places.

My last one: Seventh Sanctum. Some very eclectic generaters here.

That's all I have time for. Got an online game starting in three minutes!

Question.

Does anyone mind if I copy a few links out of here to add to my "GM Notebook" thread? Some of the links you are posting fit perfectly and it would be nice to provide direct links for people after they (hopefully) read each chapter.

Sort of a "one stop shopping".

Thank you.

No problems here.

Rapida · 28th March 2005, 04:15 AM

Fine with me, oh and if you get the time you should post some of the links you've used in the notebook to here.

I don't even see why you'de need to ask. I started this thread so that everyone could find links that would make their lives easier. Since using these links helps your project, the thread is doing what it's meant to do.

I didn't think it would be a problem.

Just a personal quirk. I like to ask before using something thats someone else put the time into finding and posting.

And this thread is great. People have posted links to sites that were far better than the ones I've discovered. I can't wait to see what others will post
