Resources

Roleplaying resources, tools and links I've collected and created on my tabletop travels.

Tables

Various little tables and generators I've created over time for our games and campaigns. Most of these live on Perchance, a useful free site that allows you to configure your own tables and random text generators. Perchance can be used for the most basic random tables, and has enough flexibility in its syntax and available plugins to be able to put together advanced generators and pages. Read through the Perchance tutorial to get an idea of what it can do.
