Random Character Generator

[md2501]

Hi everyone, just wanted to share a little project I started a few days ago.
I made a random character generator for basic fantasy, which you can find here: https://md2501.github.io/bfrpgcg/ (Code).

It currently only supports generating first level characters, but I plan to expand it in the future.
Edit: It supports generating characters of any chosen level now. For an overview of implemented and planned features check out the README.

(I made a search through the forums right before posting this and found the amazing generator by SooperGenius here. I'm kind of glad I didn't find it earlier though, because then I might not have had the motivation to make this )

Fantastic generator! Would you be able to add other classes with other parameters? Of course that'd be another version, that doesn't clash with the core-rule classes and such.

Thank you! Yes, that would be possible. I tried to write it in a way that's somewhat easy to expand, so that adding new classes and races doesn't require refactoring. A simple on/off setting for using additional races/classes would also be quite easy to implement. It's kinda on my Todo:

• implement generating characters of specific level
• optional start equipment
• guide on how to add new races/classes
• multilanguage support
• add some portraits

Alright, well I'd be interested in using this tool for my games as we have SO many new classes and races we use Let me know how I could help!

Cool creation, minor thing, I rolled some Fighter/Magic User combos, it had the Fighter Saving Throws instead of the combined better ones, same happened with a Thief/Magic User.

I will get on it when I added generating higher level characters. Which additional races/classes are you using?

Thanks for the info, there was a bug that interfered with the saving throws. Should be good now.

It seems to be good now.

I'll send you a full list in PMs

The generator now supports creating a character of a chosen level and picking appropriate spells. Feedback and bug reports welcome
A friend of mine is working on multilanguage support and bfrpgcg should be available in german soon.
