Character Generators

Mapping Software

  • AutoREALM - freeware map creation program with expansions.
  • Dungeon Forge - Free, easy-to-use map creation program. Fast and flexible, it can produce maps in the style of Dungeoncrafter and Dundjinni (as well as using the same range of art), and can be printed for tabletop use or used in online games.

Adventure Design

  • Masterplan - freeware with good support & community

Other Useful Software

  • Everchanging Book of Names - a random name generator for many cultures, real and otherwise.
  • Hero Machine - generates pictures of RPG characters and NPCs.
  • Role Playing Tools - Online gaming tabletop. Chat, token/mini creation, dice tools, map sharing, scriptable. Open Source, Java, Free!
  • TheDarkTools - campaign and character organizer for the original World of Darkness setting.
  • Inspiration Pad Pro - Free random generator that uses text files so you can create your own tables. Easy and customizable. Win, Linux, CGI for web publishing.
  • DiceMage - One of the most useful things for running a game - a PC-based Dice Roller.
  • NameMage - Either use the included name sets, or create your own. It's a great program when in a bind.
  • "Dungeons & Dragons" Dice Roller - Don't let the name fool you, this program is anything but D&D-centric. It includes one capability DiceMage doesn't - the ability to create a custom dX. Ever needed to decide between 15 things? You can! Good luck, good gaming!
  • Tinwatchman Initiative Tracker - free web-based initiative tracker for multiple game systems. There's also a version specifically optimized for the iPhone and iPod Touch available here.
