Online NPC generation software.

[Dark Jezter]

Greetings, all.

I've been using Jamis Buck's NPC Generator for a while now (albeit the 3.5e conversion of it), and while it can be helpful for generating NPCs in a pinch, I've found that it occasionally makes weird choices with feat and skill selection (such as giving a fighter the Negotiator feat, or a wizard the Point Blank Shot feat).

I recall seeing a link to different 3.5e NPC generator on these forums a while back, and while not as easy to use as Jamis Buck's generator, was supposed to make more intelligent decisions regarding character builds. The character generator worked entirely online, and you didn't have to download any software. Does anybody have the URL for it?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, it's not perfect, but I'm surprised at the examples you gave. You are using this online version?

I'm using the downloadable version, v2.0.2 ALPHA.

Looks like you've updated it. What features do the new version have.

A few, namely a better generation algorithm.

Check out the Changes.txt file in the zip.
