I have found this site to be a tremendous source of names for a number of settings.

(Note you have to refresh the entire site to generate additional name lists in a category after generating the first.)

I just tried to find the D&D Next playtest materials I had downloaded last year, but they closed the playtest last December. If anyone is interested in seeing it, send me a PM and I'll see if I can find them.

I posted this in another thread but figured I needed to add it here as well. The new D&D version Basic Rules is out and available for FREE at Basic Rules for Dungeons & Dragons (http://www.wizards.com/dnd/Article.aspx?x=dnd/basicrules). Its about 2.7MB and 110 pages.

Here's a PDF of the über-TSR collectors list

http://personalpages.tds.net/~jazzn2day/Collectors%20Checklist%20-%20D&D,%20AD&D%20%28TSR%29.pdf

how many do *you* have?
(note, I'm over 50%, but if you stop at 2d Edition, I'm over 85% or so)

Free (open source?) digital tools for making multi-user online RPG maps, character tokens, dicing, etc.   Think they use java.

Dungeonographer -

For making or randomly generating dungeon maps with furnishing graphics reminiscent of old D&D modules.  Free use on the site, paid version for installer and a few extra options.  Some virtual gameplay usage.

Airboy I've used it in the past and I think it saves the image as a jpeg or something like that so it'd should be easy to copy image and transfer to a program like power point and print the slide(s).

Or you could just print the jpeg

I've not used it before. 

Sounds like these guys got it sorted, though.  JPEG is easy enough.   :bd:

I've used the Token Tool quite a bit to make tokens for Fantasy Grounds.  That particular tool is very functional.

Yet another online dice roller (http://a.teall.info/dice/). This one is really good though. I like the way you can 'throw' the dice with your mouse.

Nice!

I thought to myself, "I need to bookmark this die roller."  It was already bookmarked. 

Am I gettin' da senility already?
