About

GMToolkit

Features
Read full description

This app generates randomized content for a Game Master (GM)/Dungeon Master (DM) to use during their game. It's designed to be easy to read and simple, making it perfect for using on-the-fly mid-game. As a GM/DM, your job is to fill in the gaps created by this app, or to use it for inspiration. For example, if you create a randomized City, it might give you descriptions like: - Theocracy - Egg Statues - Soot - Sacrifice - Rogue Knights So you might start describing the city as covered in soot with large stone egg statues. As your players start exploring the city, you can piece together in your head what's really going on: perhaps this is a dragon-worshipping city run by a cult. They have a yearly ritual where they hatch a dragon egg and sacrifice commoners to the newborn, however a group of defiant knights have started fighting back against this practice. This app is made of 75% human writing, then 25% AI writing based on that human writing (using Anthropic and self-improvement algorithms). If this app does well I'll come back and add an option to filter out the AI writing, but I made this app primarily for myself so I don't have a need for it personally. The writing is vetted and makes it less likely for content to run out.
