    Taverns and Inns of Gaming Lore?

    Thinking about Inns and taverns in gaming and how they can be used as meeting places for a group starting out, as a place where retired PCs crop up and as recurring places in a campaign. First to spring to mind were Inn of the Last Home from Dragonlance (up a giant tree), the Yawning Portal...

    First attempt at a Settlement Description generator

    I'm looking for feedback at my first attempt at a settlement generator using OGRE, the Quick Fantasy Settlement. I'm attempting to keep the generator description-based (so it can be plugged into other generators) but give enough detail so that a GM has enough information to use it. I've...

    D&D 5E (2014) What should be in a 5E Game Prep generator? [Poll]

    I've tried to run with a laptop only when I have a pdf adventure (or on Roll20!) but I wonder if any research has been done on what proportion of people use a tablet or laptop when running a game at the table... I've used this calendar tool at http://e2ogame.net/homepages/antti/rpg/gmtool.html...

    D&D 5E (2014) What should be in a 5E Game Prep generator? [Poll]

    Not really, that could be another generator though. I want to give some elements which GMs often need during a game session which would be useful to have in many situations and can create easily in one place. They might need something to fill a gap in an adventure, use a few things to spice up...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anything extra recommended to run Tomb of Annihilation?

    If you've run (or read thoroughly) Tomb of Annihilation, are there any extra bits you would recommend preparing? So any changes you would make, thing you felt were missing or extra content you added to enhance the adventure?

    D&D 5E (2014) What should be in a 5E Game Prep generator? [Poll]

    So the aim here isn't to provide anything unified, but to provide a list of small elements that the DM can use as needed. An NPC, an encounter on the road, a couple of possible quests when they ask around in town, some treasure on a monster they unexpectedly killed. Having recently run a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Running a randomly-generated dungeon one-shot

    If you already have a way of filling out the layout of the dungeon then I would use that. Give your players some rationale for using the cards such as legends of a dungeon which shifts and warps because of dimensional rifts / chaos magic / attentions of the Lady of Pain. You might also consider...

    D&D 5E (2014) What should be in a 5E Game Prep generator? [Poll]

    Also a good question, and it may be that you're not the target if you already make heavy use of lots of different generator sites (do you ever use fantasynamegenerators.com?) What I'm hoping will be useful is A generator that unites the most useful content in one place and with one click. It...
