Tools for the table

TirateIniziativa

Free tools for whoever runs the game. They work in your browser, they ask for no account, and nothing you write reaches us — all but LoreVeil, the shared campaign diary, which has a sign-in of its own.

The tools

D&D Encounter Balancer

Is this fight fair?

Online

How many adventurers, what level, which enemies — and the answer, in three taps. No names to fill in and nothing to set up: for D&D 5.0 and 5.5, which weigh the same fight in two different ways. It also tells you what to add to get where you said.

  • A band, from trivial to deadly, and how far into it you are
  • Type «4 goblin» and press Enter, or let it build the fight for you
  • A random encounter table for a journey, rolled on d12+d8

D&D DM Toolkit

Build the fight, then run it.

Online

Everything the balancer does, plus the table around it: an initiative tracker with hit points, conditions and portraits, the order live on the players’ own phones, named characters with their own levels and experience, travel tables and a bestiary of 3,600 creatures.

  • Initiative, hit points and conditions — and concentration saves asked for you
  • A screen for the players on their phones, showing only what you reveal
  • Up to fifteen characters with their levels, their XP and their level-ups

HexJourney

The map, one hex at a time.

Online

A map builder for hexcrawls: tiles, roads and rivers that snap to the hexes, symbols and weather effects. The party explores, and the fog lifts only where they can actually see.

  • Tiles, overlays, roads and rivers
  • Fog of war and line-of-sight exploration
  • Travel times and distances, by map scale and means of transport

Curse of Strahd — Tarokka Randomizer

The cards that open Barovia.

Online

The five-card Tarokka reading that begins a Curse of Strahd campaign. The referee lays them on the seer’s table, one at a time or all at once, and shares them live with the players.

  • The five cards of the Fortunes of Ravenloft
  • One at a time, or the whole spread
  • The players see the table, but only what the seer says aloud

LoreVeil

The campaign, as the table remembers it.

Online

The shared campaign diary for tabletop roleplaying, where each player sees only what their character knows. The world — NPCs, places, groups, items, events — the sessions with their summaries, a diary, and the game nights to schedule, with a vote on the dates. Six languages, free, no ads.

  • NPCs, places, groups, items and events, each as the character knows it
  • Sessions and summaries, and a diary the players write too
  • Game nights scheduled with a vote on the dates

Unlike the other tools, it needs an account: you sign in with Google on LoreVeil itself — the sign-in on this page does not carry over — and you join a campaign by creating one or through your referee’s invitation.

Who makes them

TirateIniziativa. These tools are born at a real table, from things that were annoying to do by hand, and they are given away because they cost nothing to give. Unofficial fan content: the source code is open, and every project says where its data comes from.

Support on Ko-fi

One sign-in for all of them

Each tool can keep your work in a folder of your own Google Drive, so you pick it up on another device. It is optional, it never starts by itself, and it asks for one permission only: the files the tools create — nothing else in your Drive.

Sign in once, here or in any tool, and it holds for all of them for thirty days, renewed every time you come back: no more signing in again every hour.

What they do not do

No account, no advertising, no tracking, no profiling cookies — the only cookie we set keeps you signed in to Google Drive, and only if you ask for it; the permission itself stays on our server, encrypted, until you disconnect. What you write stays in your browser unless you decide to save it elsewhere. The only thing our server counts is how many visits there were in a month, without knowing whose. LoreVeil is the exception: a shared diary has to live on a server, so it has its own sign-in and its own privacy notice.
