Perhance is a platform that allows you to create your own custom random generators. You could use it to create your own random text generator for a tabletop RPG, or to make your own random name generator, or to simply create a generator which selects a random item from your list with different weights. You can also save your generator so it has a permalink that you can share with your friends.

Perchance is based around creating lists which reference other lists. You can adjust the odds of items in each list so that when you randomly select an item from that list, they all have the likelihoods that you've specified. If you'd like to learn how to make a random text generator with Perchance, you should check out the tutorial. It explains all the basic features of the Perchance engine and should get you up and running in only 10 or 20 minutes. Perchance has many powerful features that you don't need to learn from the start, but can learn later if you want to create particularly complex generators.

I created Perchance because most people are still creating random generators in excel. Those work all right, but excel and other spreadsheets aren't really made for that purpose, so there's a lot to be desired in terms of functionality and ease of use. Whatever you're using it for, I hope you find Perchance useful! You might like to check out our community forum where you can ask questions and share your random generator creations.

If you see this message, this page failed to load properly. One potential cause is that (as of writing) some ad blockers break basic1 functionality of Perchance pages. This includes pages that don't have any ads - i.e. even "normal" (non-AI-powered) generators.

As part of my recently conjured grog character sheet (I've been testing it in play and so far I'm really pleased with having small character sheets for grogs) I have also attempted to create a simple character generator.

Now, this (unfortunately) does not work by magic so it is a bit limited and will at times generate characters missing 5 to 10 experience or once in a blue moon a character with a characteristic which is a bit high or low. Sometimes it also generates somewhat silly characters.

So, now I ask - is there anything obviously missing? Are there any obvious bugs? Any special missing virtues/flaws/abilities? (please don't ask for the moon regarding virtues/flaws, we all know the lunar sphere is off limits )

The Faerie Blood types (F-positive?) are new, I googled a list of faerie types and adapted them. I've been meaning to add at least Goblin and Undine from the source book and add a few more virtues/flaws for greater variation.

The names and languages are not meant to be a complete representation of the people of Mythic Europe, but rather a diverse enough sample of (somewhat) plausible origins to have some variability to the generated grogs. That said, the generated grogs are fully editable so it's more of a convenience feature.

Determine your target audience: To choose a virtue business name idea, start by identifying the people you want to appeal to with your virtue brand. Consider their age, gender, interests, and preferences. This will help you create a name that resonates with your ideal customers and sets the foundation for a successful virtue brand.

Define your virtue brand personality and values: Your brand's personality should be reflected in your virtue business name. Think about the characteristics you want your virtue business to embody, such as playfulness, warmth, or creativity. Make a list of adjectives and values that align with your virtue brand, as these can serve as inspiration for your business name.

Identify your unique selling proposition (USP) for your virtue business: What sets your virtue business apart from the competition? Your USP should be a core element of your virtue business name, helping to convey your business's distinct qualities. It's important to communicate what makes your virtue products or services special in a way that is memorable and appealing to your target audience.

Combine words and concepts for a virtue name: Brainstorm words and concepts related to your virtue brand and consider combining them in interesting ways. This can help you create a unique and memorable virtue business name that captures the essence of your brand while appealing to your target audience.

Use puns and wordplay in your virtue name: Puns and wordplay can add a fun and whimsical touch to your virtue business name. Think about phrases or idioms that relate to your brand, and see if you can incorporate a playful twist that aligns with your virtue brand personality.

Incorporate a rhyme in your virtue name: rhyming can make your virtue business name more memorable and engaging. Experiment with word combinations that create a pleasing rhythm or sound, making your virtue business name stand out and stick in people's minds.

Take inspiration from literature, mythology, or pop culture for your virtue name: Look into books, myths, or popular culture for virtue names or phrases that could work well for your business. These sources can provide a wealth of creative ideas for a virtue business name that is both meaningful and memorable.

Experiment with foreign words or translations for a virtue name: Explore words in other languages that relate to your virtue brand or have a pleasant sound. This can add an exotic or sophisticated touch to your virtue business name while still communicating your brand's values and personality.

Create a focus group or survey for your virtue business name: Gather feedback from your target audience by conducting a focus group or survey. This will help you understand which of your virtue business name ideas resonate most with your potential customers, ensuring your final choice will have broad appeal.

Test virtue names for memorability and pronounceability: A good virtue business name should be easy to remember and pronounce. Try saying your virtue name options out loud, and ask others to do the same. Note any challenges or difficulties people experience, and use this information to refine your virtue business name ideas.

Evaluate virtue names for emotional appeal: Your virtue business name should evoke positive emotions and create a strong connection with your target audience. Assess the emotional impact of your virtue name options by considering the feelings and associations they bring out in people. Choose a virtue business name that aligns with your brand's personality and values while generating a positive emotional response.

Check for trademark availability of your virtue business name: Before choosing your virtue business name, search trademark databases to ensure that it is not already in use by another company. This will help you avoid potential legal issues and ensure that your virtue business name is truly unique.

Verify domain name availability for your virtue name: Having a website is essential for any modern business, so check if your preferred virtue business name has an available domain. This will make it easier for your customers to find you online and help establish a cohesive brand presence.

Research local business name regulations for your virtue name: Different jurisdictions have various rules and regulations surrounding business names. Before settling on your virtue business name, research your local laws to ensure that your chosen name meets all necessary requirements and does not infringe upon any existing trademarks or business names.

Reflect on feedback and personal preferences for your virtue name: Take into account the feedback you've gathered from your target audience, as well as your own personal preferences. Consider which virtue business name ideas best represent your brand's identity, values, and unique selling proposition, while also appealing to your ideal customers.

Ensure your virtue name aligns with brand identity: Before making a final decision, double-check that your chosen virtue business name aligns with your overall brand strategy. This will help create a cohesive brand image and make it easier for customers to understand and connect with your business.
