Hey everyone! I've been working on this D&D tool called DNDToolbox for a few years now on and off as a passion project. I just released some new features that I would love feedback on! It's a free site (no ads, no registration required) where DM's can generate random items, encounters and NPCs to use in your sessions. You can try it out here: www.dndtoolbox.app
A community for discussion of all things Dungeons and Dragons! This is the catch all community for anything relating to Dungeons and Dragons, though we encourage you to see out our Networked Communities listed below!

This seems really well done, but it's only useful if you need truly random stuff. It'd be great if we could limit the randomness; for example we need a random sword specifically, or a random encounter with a specific subset of enemies, etc. Pure random is nice for random loot or magic shop items, but often you'll need a something more specific.
Edit: Also, for the NPCs, it'd be great to be able to reroll only specific parts of the NPC if we got one that is good but needs a few things to be different only.
Thanks for the feedback! At one point it was possible to customize the generation a lot like you said and even edit the properties directly but it started to feel like work instead of a fun side project so I scrapped it. It might be worth taking another look.
It's not exactly part of the site directly but I did connect a custom ChatGPT to the generation functions which allows you to use it inside ChatGPT. I've been experimenting with it for the past few days and it is able to modify the generated content based on the context of your campaign really well.
