All-Dice Character Generator



Roll 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, 1d10, 1d12, and 1d20. Consult tables (front and back) to create and equip a character. Very fast, very simple.

This system neutral character generator spawns whimsical fantasy weirdos with a random personality, purpose, and 5 pieces of random equipment well suited to tactical infinity, creative problem solving, and lateral thinking. 

Each generated character will fall into one of six "classes" - Arcanist, Root Elf, Warrior, Intellectual, Miscreant, and Oddball. A "class" gives a character a piece of gear and an idea of what the character is all about. A character of a given class will have one of four "subclasses," which provides another piece of gear and a specific goal the character is interested in. Each class also has it's own random "bonus tool" table that provides a third piece of class-related gear. Random personality, expeditionary gear, and unusual weapon tables further round out the character and their equipment. Just add attribute scores and levels and whatever other doodads your system of choice entails and you've got a unique fantasy adventurer primed for shenanigans.

The characters will work with any adventure, but I wrote this with Undertree Temple of the Elf Gods​ especially in mind.

A character generated with this will have everything needed for a game of Adventure Hour! and very nearly everything you need for the rules-lite, slot-based games Cairn and Knave.
