Create your own generator

Turn your own lists into polished random generators.

Foundry is the new home for custom Story Shack generators. Build generators from your own tables, lists, names, prompts, loot, factions, locations, or anything else your story needs.

Start simple, combine multiple lists, publish a themed page, and keep everything connected to your Story Shack account.

Why Foundry

A stronger Create Your Own Generator for serious idea tables

Foundry keeps the fast list-based workflow, then adds better organization, publishing, themes, and room for bigger generator projects.

Custom generator builder

Create your own random generator from the words, names, hooks, and tables you already use.

Multiple lists per generator

Combine categories such as prefixes, places, twists, items, and outcomes into richer results.

Published generator pages

Share a polished generator page with readers, players, collaborators, or your own community.

Themes and presentation

Choose page settings that fit your project so public generators feel intentional.

Account-backed workspace

Keep your generators, lists, and items attached to your Story Shack account.

Built for story work

Use Foundry for NPC tables, plot hooks, worldbuilding prompts, item drops, name pools, and more.

Workflow

From raw list to shareable generator

Add your material

Create a generator and paste or write the lists you want it to roll from.

Shape the results

Mix lists, refine wording, and test results until the generator feels useful.

Publish or keep private

Use it as a private workspace or publish a themed page when it is ready to share.

Flexible tables

Simple lists that can grow into deep generators

Start with one list when you just need quick random ideas. Add more lists when you want structured results, such as adjective plus creature plus motive, or region plus landmark plus local rumor.

Shareable output

Publish generators that look at home on Story Shack

Foundry is built around the idea that your best tables should be usable beyond a private note. Publish a generator page, choose its visibility, and give it presentation settings that fit the project.

Forge the generator your project actually needs.

Create custom random generators from your own material, then roll, refine, publish, and reuse them whenever inspiration has to move fast.
