Starfinder Character Sheet

The Starfinder character sheet! I decided to collect different Starfinder character sheets as I did with Pathfinder character sheets. I love RPG character sheets and nothing beats being able to find the exact one you need when getting ready for your RPG campaign. Also, included are some links to Starfinder ship and drone sheets as

Random D&D Race and Class Tables

A friend in my gaming group created these two D&D Race and Class tables. These random tables come in handy while playing D&D. Often a dungeon master or players need a random fantasy race or character class. Hanging out in inns or taverns, traveling along the road, or strolling about towns always presents the opportunity

D&D Critical Hit Weapon Damage Tables

One of my regular gaming group members created these D&D critical hit weapon damage tables. Sometimes you just want to add a bit of flare or something unique to a combat encounter. Or give that extra spice to a nat 1 or a nat 20. If one of your D&D players rolls a critical hit

Session Zero: TTRPG Tool

Session zero is a very helpful tool in the gamemaster’s toolkit. It is a relatively new development in tabletop RPGs and it has gone kind of mainstream within the gaming community (if there is such a thing). I wish I would have thought of it when I was a teenager. If you are beginning an

GMing on-the-Fly: Roll for the Answer

If you get overwhelmed with all the decisions that a gamemaster has to make, there is a quick way to solve that issue in the no-prep GM model. This is what I like to call the best-case/worst-case roll. (Yes, I need a better name for this, but this will do for now.) Simply take a

D&D Encounters – 1D20 Random Tables
