Spell Scroll Generation and more on the to-do list…

Yesterday, I rolled out a spell scroll generator using the underlying 1E AD&D™ data handlers. Spell scrolls can be a pain to generate and I like a bit of randomness but in a constrained fashion. Thus, the spell scroll process garners a separate process from purely random generation of treasure.

On the treasure front, I requested and received permission to utilize the tables and information from the excellent Treasure supplement by Courtney Campbell of Hack & Slash fame. Courtney’s supplement uses alternatives to the standard categories of treasure. I do not plan to make a stand-alone generator but rather include the alternates in my AD&D™ 1E Treasure Generator (and perhaps the Labyrinth Lord™ one as well). The permission was granted with the condition I make no profit and appropriate credit is given. Not a problem. Mithril & Mages is 100% ad-free, 100% free to use, and has no intention of generating profit.

Finally, I received some feedback on the City Block Generator from Yendorma. The request was fairly simple: Add an ‘Everything’ style option to include all location types. I added that this evening. However, the entire process needs to be gutted and redone. The generator produces images, which was the purpose of a long dead collaborative project. Replacing images with a simpler output format should be easy…when I get the chance.
