Hey all, first post on Lemmy!
I have been a DM for years and put together a small tool that will build a random general store for you and your players! You can save the store, it will give you a link, and you can send the link to your players.
It currently gives you full control over adding items, setting prices, changing quantity and more!
Let me know what you think!
This is a pretty cool idea. I’ve used ChatGPT for similar things to come up with traps and the like. What is the format that this gets returned in?
So itll work like that but I’ve also used additions to that template asking for it to be delivered in a certain format.
Sorry in advance for formatting, I haven’t gotten the hang of the text editor on the jerboa app yet.
Here’s an example of my prompt and the response.
My prompt: Using the D&D 5th edition rules, please provide the name of the shop, a succinct description of the outside and inside, shop owner description (include gender and D&D race), their name, and one or two unique items the players could obtain from the shop from the following prompts:
Shop themes: dark, smokey Shop specialty: fishing Part of town the shop is located in: town center market
AI, Please format your response in the following way: Shop Name: Shop Description: Owner Name: Owner Description: Unique items for purchase:
ChatGPT’s response:
Shop Name: The Tangled Net
Shop Description: The Tangled Net is a dimly lit and mysterious shop nestled in the heart of the town center market. The exterior is adorned with weathered wooden planks, and a faded sign above the door bears the shop’s name in elaborate, tangled letters. Wisps of smoke waft from a chimney, creating an alluring, smokey ambiance that hints at the secrets within.
Owner Name: Morgath Shadowbinder
Owner Description: Morgath Shadowbinder is a tall and slender figure with an air of enigma. They are a genderless tiefling, their skin a deep obsidian hue with swirling patterns of faintly glowing, ember-like red lines. Morgath’s eyes, possessing a fiery intensity, seem to pierce through any deception. They wear dark, flowing garments that accentuate their otherworldly presence.
Unique items for purchase:
Shadowcaster’s Rod: This ornate fishing rod is imbued with the essence of darkness. When used during nighttime or in dark areas, it grants the wielder advantage on all Fishing checks. Additionally, once per day, the rod can summon a spectral shadow fish that can be caught. The shadow fish can be released to cast a darkness spell in a 15-foot radius or consumed to restore 1d4+1 hit points.
Smoker’s Lure: A unique fishing lure crafted from the scales of a black dragon, the Smoker’s Lure emits a faint, smokey aura. When attached to a fishing line, it grants the wielder advantage on Fishing checks when attempting to catch large or legendary aquatic creatures. Once per day, when a successful catch is made using the lure, the wielder can choose to release a cloud of smoke that grants them temporary invisibility for up to 1 minute or until they attack or cast a spell.
