Which character tool do I need?

  • I'm the DM and need someone for the party to talk to: the NPC Generator gives a full NPC in one click, with a voice you can perform, what they want and a secret. Fill a place creates everyone in a tavern, village, court or market.
  • I want a whole character, fast: the Random Character Generator gives a name, race, class, background, ability scores, looks, personality and a backstory in one click, or a whole party.
  • I'm making a player character step by step: start with the Point Buy Calculator for your ability scores, pick a race with the D&D Race Picker, then add a personality, a look and a backstory.
  • I need a name: the D&D Name Generator covers 24 races, and our race name pages go deeper, such as the Dragonborn, Tiefling and Halfling name generators.
  • I want to see my character: the Portrait Maker draws a portrait, and the Height & Weight Calculator lines your party up on a size chart.
  • My character lives a long time: the Age Calculator turns elf, dwarf and gnome years into human years and back.

What makes a good character, PC or NPC

Great characters are easy to describe in one breath: a nervous halfling baker who secretly writes the town's anonymous poems. That's three things: who they are, what they do, and something surprising underneath. Our tools are built around that idea. The NPC Generator always gives a want, a fear and a secret; the name pages give names with meanings, so a name can hint at a story; and the Point Buy Calculator explains why each class needs its key abilities, so your numbers fit the character you imagine.

Three quick tips

  1. Give every NPC one thing to want. An NPC who wants something will move the story on their own.
  2. Choose a voice before a backstory. Players remember how a character sounds long after they forget the history.
  3. Let numbers follow the idea. A clumsy, strong bard is a fine character. Spend your points on the person you want to play.
