Table Roller Application

What

A theasaurus for random tables (think D&D, pathfinder, etc).

This collection of tools standardises a way of collecting variations that you can pepper your random generations with a rich selection of variations.

Take a loot table for example

Instead of one of the below A blue spear, A gold key

You can nest variability "A {{utility-senses/color-blue/dark}} spear", "A {{utility-senses/color-material/metal-copper}} key"

will produce results such as, with variance each time you 'roll' A sapphire spear, A greened bronze key

Why

Random generators are awesome, but writing them with sufficient variability to be interesting can be hard, I hope this library can add a rich depth to the tables people create

How

Currently only the desktop app is ready, but I'm working on a web version so people can more easily add generators to their website.
