WHAT IS
DNDSPEAK?
Dndspeak is a collective community of individuals passionate about tabletop gaming.
When someone has an idea to improve gameplay, the community bands together to
bring that idea to another level. These ideas come in the form of d100 lists, meaning
the community comes up with 100 different options for the topic. For example, if I
needed 100 different items that could be found in the lair of a mysterious cult, the
community would band together to give suggestions.

This list was created by the community over at www.reddit.com/r/d100.


Put together by Casey Willis. See more at www.dndspeak.com.
