Random Generators ๐ŸŽฒ

Random Generators can help us create new ideas by making new combinations from lists of possible options (variables). For example, they can be used to instantly create spontaneous descriptions of characters, places, and items. This makes them great inspiration for Game Masters running roleplay threads. This page lists all the available random generators.

History

Star Army first added random generators in 2010. Originally most of the random generators on Star Army were in the form of PHP pages but in 2021 we moved most of them onto the wiki (Note: this is still ongoing) after commissioning the creation of a plugin that made this possible. Doing this extended the ability to make and edit random generators to all Star Army members.
