Project: Source Foundry Versions 13+ (Verified 14)
Last Updated 3 days, 13 hours ago
A step-by-step character creation wizard
for the dnd5e system, built to make building a character feel quick and guided from start to finish without ever leaving Foundry, and without bundling a single word of book text.
Compendium-driven, not content bundled
Every class, species, background, feat, spell, and item comes straight from whatever compendiums you already have installed - system packs, the Player's Handbook module, Forge of the Artificer, or your own homebrew. Nothing is copied into this module, so it automatically supports whatever your table already owns, and stays legal by construction.
Built around your game
A game master gets a Compendium Sources allowlist, House Rules (banned species, restricted ability score methods, minimum feat level), and a live Progress Dashboard showing exactly where every player is stuck.
Fully local
No telemetry, no phoning home, no account, no external service of any kind.Every choice a player makes written straight to a real Foundry Actor using the dnd5e system.
The wizard:
Eleven guided steps - Getting Started, Class, Species, Background, Abilities, Feats, Spells, Equipment, Identity, About, Review - each one built around real dnd5e data, not a parallel system bolted on top:
Multiclassing: add as many classes as you want, remove any of them, with starting-level HP/subclass/feature choices resolved for each one.
Learn More on any class, species, or background card shows its real compendium description, ability score improvements, and granted features before you commit.
Every choice happens inside the wizard. Skill picks, traits, subclass choices, spell selection, equipment shopping - all embedded directly in the window, no separate popups breaking the flow.
Four ways to generate ability scores - standard array, point buy, dice roll (with swapping), or manual entry - shown as flip cards with per-ability icons, saving throws, and governed skills on the back.
Browse Feats shows every available feat with a live qualification check, not just your background's origin feat.
Equipment lets you take a starting kit or buy your own gear with the character's real money - you can't buy what you can't afford.
Add Custom for a quick homebrew class, species, background, subclass, or equipment placeholder, finished on the item's own native sheet.
Level Up later from the character's own sheet (works with Tidy 5e Sheets too), reusing the same guided flow, showing only what's actually relevant to an existing character.
Identity: Who you are, what's your backstory - you can write it down and also add more details in About block, how you look, your personal traits and so on!
Review your character - check spells, items, feats, details, also you can roll and reroll abilites with all it logged in chat messages.
Ability to change avatar via link or just ask DM to change it via document browser.
Export a finished character to PDF or a Foundry Journal Entry.
Accessibility - Keyboard-navigable, with adjustable text size and a colorblind-friendly accent palette.
Customize your experience - you can change accent color of all buttons, borders. Also you can choose one of several theme!
For the game master:
Settings for you - you can change evrything inside module settings, what you prefer, and it will update it for players.
Compendium Sources - choose which installed packs the wizard can draw from, and tag each one 2014, 2024, or both.
House Rules - restrict ability score methods, disallowed alignments, minimum feat level, and banned species.
Character Creation Progress dashboard - see every player's in-progress draft and finished character at a glance, with a one-click jump-in to help directly. Updates live as players make progress.
Optional GM review before a character finalizes - you can check details of players, change or add something that you need inside the wizard.
Even more features for DM and Players in future... I hope
Requirements: Foundry VTT v13 or v14, dnd5e system v3.0 or newer.
