Character description generator for use by artists, writers, dungeon masters or anyone else

#Chargen - A character generator Chargen generates character descriptions, for use by concept artists, role-playing game DMs or anywhere a description could be useful

##Uses Character descriptions can be generated by running the python script, or using the webpage (current version available online here).

Commandline

Run the chargen.py file without parameters to print a single character description

python chargen.py

Run the command again to generate a different description.

Generate the website

The website is compiled by the python script, using the current wordlists. The parameter to use is '-b' or '--build'

python chargen.py -b

This will generate an "index.html" file with sufficient javascript to run in-browser locally.

Website

The website automatically generates a character description. Click 'regenerate' to be given another. ####URL Note that the url of the page changes to provide a way to link to randomly generated characters. The URL will look something like:

{site_url}#!/23/5/68/34

##Sources for wordlists:

• Adjectives
• Sub-cultures
• Occupations
• Creatures
