Adventurer's Guide

Master the tools of Dragon's Fate Tavern.

The Tavern

The Tavern is your character roster. Here you can create and manage multiple adventurers.

  • Party Order: Drag and drop character cards to reorder your party.
  • Appearance: Adjust global font sizes at the bottom of the Tavern screen.
  • Data Safety: Use the Data Management section below to export or import your roster backups.

The Combat Roller

Dice & Custom Strings

Custom Rolls: Enter dice notation like 2d8+4. You can add multiple attack or damage fields.

Presets: Save complex attacks as buttons. Selected buttons scroll their names in a loop for easy reading.

Advantage: Toggling Advantage or Disadvantage handles double d20 logic automatically.

Critical Logic

Natural 20s: Automatically doubles damage dice for the roll.

Natural 1s: Fails show the total in a muted style for reference but are excluded from your turn's Grand Total.

Modifiers & Abilities

These tools allow you to pin specialized bonuses directly to your combat roller.

Modifiers

Bonuses like "Great Weapon Master". Once pinned, they appear as toggles in your roller.

Combat Filters

Tag a modifier as Melee or Ranged. It only activates if the preset matches that type.

Minimum Floors

Set a "Minimum Roll". Any die below this floor is adjusted upwards (e.g., treating 1s as 3s).

Abilities & Traits

Racial and background traits for reference or combat bonuses.

Spellcasting & Concentration

Concentration

Spells marked with Concentration show a pulsing brain icon. The app tracks active focus and warns you if rolling a new spell would break your current focus.

R Ritual Magic

Mark spells as rituals to display the 'R' badge in your roll history and dice roller, ensuring your party knows when magic is being cast carefully.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the pulsing brain icon?
This indicates a spell that requires Concentration. When active, it pulses on the roll result and the combat preset button. A banner at the top of the roller tracks your currently held focus.
Why did a warning pop up when I rolled a spell?
টেবিলtop RPG rules usually only allow focusing on one concentration spell at a time. If you roll a new concentration spell while focus is held, the app warns you that the previous effect will end.
Why did my Gnome turn into a Goblin?
Dragon's Fate Tavern enforces a strictly whimsical "No Gnomes" house rule. If enabled, Gnomes are automatically converted to Goblins. You can toggle this in the Legal Notice section if your table permits mischievous tinkers.
How do I restore my characters on a new device?
Use the Export Roster button to save a JSON file of your party. On your new device, use the Import Roster button to upload that file and restore your entire roster.
