Generating a Shop
To build a custom inventory, configure the following parameters and click the Generate Shop button:
- Shop Type: Defines the theme of the store (e.g., General Store, Smithy, Arcane Shop).
- Shop Price: Adjusts the pricing baseline for the items in stock.
- Town Economy: Influences the quality and rarity of the items available based on the local wealth.
- Assortment: Determines the variety and quantity of goods in the inventory.
Inventory Details
Once generated, the tool provides a complete list of items, including:
- Item Name & Price: Ready for immediate transaction.
- Categories & Tags: For easy sorting of gear, consumables, or magical items.
- Descriptions: Flavor text and mechanical details to provide your players during browsing.
Advanced Shop Settings
The Shop Generator settings menu provides deep customization to ensure every merchant fits perfectly into your world’s economy.
- Custom Inventories: Download the sample JSON file to create your own shop types and item lists. Re-import your edited file to expand the generator with your custom content.
- Currency & Conversion: * Currency Symbol: Change the currency prefix or suffix to anything from Gold (gp) to Credits (cr) or Dollars ($).
- Conversion Rates: Adjust the exchange rates to scale the economy for high-fantasy or gritty, low-resource settings.
- Pricing Logic:
- Price Jitter: Adjust this setting to introduce slight variance in prices each time a shop is generated, reflecting a dynamic market.
- Rounding: Configure rounding settings to snap prices to the nearest decimal, single digit, or tens place for cleaner bookkeeping.
- Exporting: Once you are satisfied with a generated inventory, you can save the shop as a text file for future reference during your campaign.
