We have 20 spells, starting with Bless and going up to Lightning Bolt, and then items including keys, knives, brooches, tiaras, a die, lanterns, and things like that. All intended for you to be able to roll and generate stuff for your game very quickly.
Then I have a thing called One Sheet 5e, and One Sheet 5e is a super streamlined version of 5e, doesn't have levels, doesn't have subclasses or anything like that, and intends to give you a character that you could run, that you could very quickly improvise and play with people who have never played before. It is built on 5e rules. So if you understand 5e rules, it works out.

And you build a character in it. You start off by setting your ability scores, which are 3, 2, 2, 1, 0, minus 1. You pick an ancestry, and then you pick a class. And you get some equipment. And the equipment is basically like, here's a common list of equipment that you have. But it's intended to be first level.

The intention is that you can build a quick first level character off of a single sheet of paper. That was the intention here. It's really two sides of a sheet because then you have a little description about how combat works. Combat uses theater of the mind, what resting does. And then we have a list of monsters and their stats. The monsters start with like a giant rat and go up to gray ooze.

Very straightforward monsters because you're only level one characters, so we don't really want to have much. Another little section on traps and hazards and another little section on treasure and magic items. And then I included five Dyson maps. Right. And we have four maps in one and then a fifth map. That's a whole sheet. That's kind of a big dungeon.

And I thought these just were good representative dungeons that are relatively small in size, but still have lots of options that you could then mix with all of the other stuff in this adventure generator to build a quick adventure.

So the intention is on three sheets of paper, if you were running a one-shot with some friends, if you just wanted some ideas for your game, if you wanted to teach someone how to play, that you could print these off double-sided and you'd have three sheets of paper, six total pages, that give you everything you need in order to run an actual game. So that is available for free, absolutely free.

All you need to do is join the Sly Flourish newsletter and you will get a copy of this Dungeon Adventure Generator, which I think is pretty fun and pretty cool. This past week, Wizards of the Coast has fired up their marketing machine for the 2025 Dungeons & Dragons Monster Manual. They've had a couple of big videos. One they did was an overall video. I think it was a little bit more than an hour.
