Three useful starting points

The tool compares player preferences with party coverage. It does not create characters or save personal data.

03 · Quick guide

Get a useful starting party in three steps

  1. Set the party level and the campaign style.
  2. Give each player two or three classes they would enjoy. Order matters: the first is preferred.
  3. Compare the three results: most player wishes, an alternative, and best balance.

04 · What the score considers

Coverage, campaign fit, and player choice

Six functions are tracked: front line, single-target damage, control, support, exploration, and social & knowledge. A profile can help with more than one.

The final score combines player fit (35%), fit for the chosen campaign style (50%), and resilience (15%). Campaign style changes which functions matter most; resilience rewards avoiding a weak link in the important functions.

05 · How it works

How it works

It evaluates six group functions, weights them for your campaign, and checks every permitted combination. These values are a transparent starter model, not an official D&D ranking.
