This Obsidian (though not limited to it) project with templates you copy or use the built-in system to write your creatures, spells, or whatever for creating your own [sourcebook](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sourcebook) to use in campaign setting or supplementary rulebook for later.
|
|
|
|
Included are basic character creation and gameplay guides with one species, class, and subclass as examples. Although this is mostly just to give a sense of what you can do and good practice, I highly recommend keeping the guides. These were taken from recent [Markdown conversation](https://github.com/downfallx/dnd-5e-srd-markdown) of the SRD that I *highly* recommend you contribute to.
|
|
|
|
## Recommendations
|
|
|
|
- Any Markdown-supported text editor
|
|
- [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) or VSCode
|
|
- [mdBook](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/)
|
|
- [Harper](https://writewithharper.com/) spellcheck
|
|
|
|
## How To
|
|
|
|
- Add a chapter to the Summary
|
|
- See [mdBook documentation](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/)
|
|
- Insert or paste the contents from `/templates`
|
|
- Write whatever you want down
|
|
- Test your book with `mdbook serve` (Optional)
|
|
|
|
### Tips
|
|
|
|
- When making a subclass, I would recommend copying the base class for reference.
|
|
- You can convert Animals to Monsters or vice versa. They follow the structure.
|
|
- If you decide to create your own spells (or tweak existing ones), I highly recommend making them [fallible](https://youtu.be/eyb4FDvzLeE). Because they're not.
|
|
- Unless 4E and 3E are released under the CC-By, this is the best workaround I can give ya'.
