Hi folks! Looking to get feedback on a minor feature to add to 2.7. Features that will be already included are a guardhouse, and faction headquarters. Stable: the thing with horses.

This is just minor bug fixes, and also adds Sentry error tracking, which should hopefully let us diagnose some of the weirder problems that people are having- if you have been having errors, now is a great time to go and try it again, so it's logged in our system. Thanks!

Hi folks! You're the cream-de-la-cream of my supporters, and therefore I give the most hecks about what you think should happen next! So, the update has been out for a full 24 hours, and I'm curious- should I keep commissioning Juho? If so, what should I commission next?

Artwork in action, and a change of colour!
So, this is a very, very rough demo of the newly commissioned artwork in action (not the final, by the way, this is just a WIP). I'm also testing out /u/flamableconcrete's DMG watercolours, which I am really enjoying. What do you think, should the colour scheme shift from the yellow PHB over...

Two column style
Thoughts? This was literally three lines of CSS, so it's still a little rough, but would people be interested in a multi-column layout that mimics the style of the PHB and official material a little bit closer?

Nothing too major- just a bug fix of many of the issues addressed when a post went viral on Reddit, resulting in a huge uptick of traffic.

How do you use Eigengrau's Generator?
I was thinking about how I should improve the generator recently, and realised that it might be useful to share how I use the generator, and also hear how other people are using it. I have essentially three different use cases.1) The most simple is when the party has reached a stop-over town, and I ...
Adding URL seeds!
So this has been a really, really long time coming, but I've finally added URL seeds, which should massively improve the debugging process- all of a sudden, all that's needed for us to all identify an issue is the URL, which will vastly reduce the amount of work that people reporting bugs ne...
Indefinite articles!
Yes, at long last, the irritating nut of indefinite articles (a, an) has been cracked! This is all due to the wonderful Chapel's plugin, which seems to have been almost custom-designed exactly for my uses- can't thank Chapel enough for it.This will be shipped as part of the 2.3.1 update whic...
Back! As penance, here's a redesign mockup
Hi all! Sorry for the radio silence. CoVid-19 has seen my PhD application bumped back, so I'm once again gainfully unemployed, this time for a more substantial period of time.So this is a mockup of a redesign that I've been working on... I'll be commissioning an artist to create banners ...
Hiatus is almost over
Hi guys,Just wanted to give you all an update for those that aren't active on the Discord server (which you totally should join, if you haven't already, by the way).This past year, I've been working on my Honours exegesis (I'm a composer by trade). This has meant that I've had pr...

In Defence of A More Civilised Orc
In the campaign that I'm running, I have two half-orc PCs in my group (who are called The Artists of Arson after one too many fireballs hit the wrong person), one that was Han-Solo'd (Episode V, not VII) for two hundred years, and another that was raised in high society. Naturally, they'...
The Economy of the Generator
Dungeons and Dragons has always had a fast-and-loose relationship with economics. We want players to feel big and powerful, with gold pieces being rare, making peasants swoon at the sight of them rocking into town and splashing a load of cash on things, but we also want the aforementioned peasants t...
Eigengrau's Generator is now served over https!
Not that there's any data that anybody could steal, as I don't keep any data, but I figured I might as well. So uh, it's now served over https! Yay!

Version 2.2 has been released!
Version 2.2 "The Update That Makes The Internet Mad" / "Critical (Hit) Theory" has been released! This is a QoL bug smashing update, that introduces the seeds of sexuality and class status to the generator. These will be expanded upon in future updates to make it feel like a more ter...
The Theory of Generators
Thought that I'd write up a post about the theory and talk a little about my design philosophy behind the Generator. This'll be the first in a couple that I'll write, with the next couple being available to patrons before everyone else. I'll then post them for all to see, or perhaps ...
Would you be interested in system-agnostic one-shots?
Hi guys,Just want to get a feel for the room of whether there's any interest in me adding in one-shots. An example of what I'm talking about is in the Toolbox, called "The Poisoned Potioner", which is a short murder mystery without any combat. Is this a feature that you think would b...
