Wanderer's Guide Extended

Codex Cryptica is an AI-assisted worldbuilding and campaign management tool built around a living knowledge graph instead of a folder of loose documents. Every character, faction, location, and event you create becomes a linked entity, so your world stays connected and explorable as it grows. Genre-agnostic across fantasy, sci-fi, cyberpunk, horror, post-apocalyptic, western, steampunk, and more.

LoreMonkey is a Windows app that records and transcribes D&D and other tabletop RPG sessions on your own PC. Connect the Discord desktop app and every line is labelled with the character who said it. No bot joins the call and no audio leaves your computer. For in-person games you can record the room with a microphone instead. After each game it writes a recap in your group's own style.  During play it offers short, well-timed prompts drawn from your campaign notes. It also keeps a compendium of your party, NPCs, places, factions and open threads. Ask LoreMonkey answers campaign questions between sessions and cites the sessions each answer came from. Recording and transcription are free and unlimited, it works for both players and GMs, and it supports any game system. Pricing The free tier is free forever. It includes unlimited recording, transcription and speaker labels for one campaign, plus a trial of the AI features (live prompts and recaps). Paid plans are monthly: Lite is $9.99 for one campaign, Standard is $19.99 for unlimited campaigns and adds Ask LoreMonkey, and Pro is $39.99 for several weekly tables. Notes Only one person at the table needs to install it. Speaker labels come from the Discord desktop app, so no bot joins the call. Audio and transcripts stay on the user's PC, and only the AI features send text out. It works with any game system and has separate Player and GM modes.

Aethera VTT is a browser-based virtual tabletop for game masters and groups playing tabletop role-playing games online. Hosts create campaigns, upload maps, place tokens, and invite players with a link. No separate tabletop application, browser plugin, or server setup is required. Scenes bring together still or animated maps, grids, walls, dynamic lighting, and fog of war. GMs can organize actors, items, and journals, keep notes private, and choose what players can see or control. During an encounter, the tabletop provides token movement, distance measurement, initiative, conditions, and shared dice rolls in chat. Audio playlists and sound zones add atmosphere, with Aethera Voice available for linked live voice. The tabletop is system-agnostic by design. Its system manifests define actor and item types, character-sheet templates, and roll formulas; systems and sheet modules are managed within the application. Hosting starts on a free plan with full campaigns and invitations, 2 GB of asset storage, and a 40 MB limit per file. Players join using their own free Aethera accounts and do not need a paid plan. Optional paid host plans provide more storage, larger uploads, and advanced configuration. A public demo can be explored without signing in. The product website includes a player quickstart, GM guides, map requirements, and plan details, so groups can try the workflow and check its limits before moving a campaign.
