Monster Randomness

After re-watching a Map Crow video on Tactics in Dungeons and Dragons I had the idea for a simple Monster Generator that roughly uses the same framework laid out in said video. Additionally, a level system akin to Black Sword Hack, and the general idea that a fantasy monster just needs 1 special flare to make it stand out, was added to this set up.

The four steps of Monster creation in this tool are to:

1. Pick the level, which also gives Hit Points, Damage, and Accuracy. This is usually assumed to be the same as the players level, unless stated otherwise.
2. Pick what type of creature it is, from a list of tactically themed templates. This list was inspired by Map Crows video, but with Summoner and Controller condensed into one.
3. Roll the creatures Saves, Fortitude Reflexes and Willpower. This also in a sense creates the creatures Skills, Armor Class, and Spell Save.
4. And finally roll 1d100 for 1 Extra Feature, which has a chance to be a Weakness which invites more features.

This tool should work with any level based d20 roll high fantasy game with light tweaking. The information in this tool is very terse, and Game Masters are free to elaborate it any way they see fit. The information given is also focused primarily on mechanics and combat, with aspects like theme origin and motive left up to the Game Masters discretion. This tool can create over 10,000 unique Monsters without considering Level & Saves, and countless more when those are considered.

I hope you enjoy this Game Master tool! If you like it, check out my other games and tools at https://sotreknomad.itch.io/!
