[QUOTE="Russiee, post: 9691120, member: 7047355"] [B][B]I've built a Settlement Generator to complement my D&D games that I made available for all, for free.[/B][/B] I guess this is part 4 (?) of the generators since the NPC, Tavern & Other Generators I posted here earlier got so much good response! Create a Random Settlement or enter a rough idea of what you want ([B][B]including ability to set your party level to tailor the settlement to your party)[/B][/B]. Choose the type of: Settlement (Village, Town, City, Metropolis) Size (Number of Inhabitants) Location Type (Crossroads, Forest, Underdark etc.) Add extras like a Theme and Game System + Additional Opts if you want. I found that the large majority of RPG generators used the same rotated traits that after a while became very noticeable and formed a pattern, (which I guess is the other side of not being AI built) so I figured i'd use what I already had as a GPT helping me into something neatly formatted that I could bookmark pages of.
