Step 01
Build a baseline
Open the Generate panel and click Generate Map. The defaults are enough for a first pass; set Party CER first if you already know it.
Step 02
Read before rerolling
Inspect Rooms & Contents, the adventure frame, and both map views. Check the entrance, obvious routes, encounters, hazards, treasure, and the first few room entries.
Step 03
Export the right packet
Give players a player-safe PNG or VTT file. Keep the GM map, Markdown room key, and Dungeon JSON with your prep.
One-minute checklist
- Set Party CER and challenge for the current delvers.
- Enable only the rulebooks and monster sources you own.
- Generate once before adding a Session Brief.
- Keep the seed and export the full Dungeon JSON.
- Check the player map before you share it.
- Skim the room key for encounter and treasure pacing.
- Review the adventure frame and wandering procedures.
- Import VTT files into a test scene before game time.
Give the directors something to work with
A Session Brief can name a theme, tone, set pieces, danger target, and character spotlight. Local AI can help interview you and turn those notes into structured suggestions.
Director authority is limited to typed tools. Source-filtered DFRPG data, deterministic generation, and validation approve every change before it enters the dungeon.
