Make each D&D character your own

Find out what sets your player character apart with prompts designed for DMs and D&D players alike. The cards in this bundle let you instantly establish your PC or NPC's history and personality quirks, giving you a strong foundation to build on as the campaign progresses.

Your goal with any character is to flesh them out beyond their class and origin. What really matters to them? What obstacles, either mental or physical, are preventing them from reaching their ambitions?

Whether you’re looking for ideas for your backstory or just want some evocative ideas to explore at the table, the D&D Character Creation Bundle takes character creation to another level. Make a dwarven fighter who is more than the axe they swing, a halfling rogue who is more than the sum of their Sneak Attack dice, or a gnome warlock who is more than chaos and Eldritch Blasts. 

These character creation prompts help you:

  • Create player characters or NPCs with strong motivations and unique traits
  • Give your PC main character energy or create a truly unique NPC for an encounter
  • Find inspiration for your roleplaying
  • Unlock core memories with evocative character backstories
  • Create characters the rest of the gaming table looks forward to meeting
