Geek Native is an independent news site and community for tabletop roleplaying games, board games, anime, and geek culture. It covers tabletop mechanics, industry news, and reviews with a critical but welcoming tone. Whether you’re a player, a Game Master, or somewhere in between, it’s a solid place to find content that actually holds up. It also publishes practical tools for session prep and world-building -  things like spaceship name generators and lists of oddly unsettling phrases to throw at your players. Alongside those, there are columns on the psychology of gameplay and table dynamics. It’s been around long enough to build a genuine community, and it shows. Links geeknative.com - Website

Thrackdown Name Generators is a collection of free, browser-based tools for creating names for tabletop games, RPG campaigns and narrative settings. The collection currently includes generators for warbands, gangs and factions, with options designed to produce multiple varied suggestions at once rather than requiring repeated single-name rolls. The generators are system-neutral and can be used for wargaming, TTRPG campaign preparation, worldbuilding, solo play, NPC-controlled forces, rival organisations, cults, mercenary groups and other fictional factions. Each generator is built from curated word lists, categories and procedural combinations, with an emphasis on producing names that feel intentional while retaining enough variation for repeated use. The tools are completely free to use and require no account or registration.

Codex is a browser-based character sheet and encounter tracker for d20 games using the 3.5 SRD, published under the Open Game License v1.0a. It runs as a progressive web app: it installs on a phone like a native app, works with no connection, and pushes any pending changes once the network returns. The design goal is that the sheet does the arithmetic a table normally does by hand. Underneath the interface sits a full implementation of the 3.5 ruleset - typed bonus stacking, iterative base attack bonuses, multiclassing, spell slots derived per ability score, two-weapon fighting, armour check penalties, encumbrance, size modifiers and confirmable criticals - rather than a set of fields the player has to total up. Every value on the sheet is derived, and clicking any ability, save, skill or weapon rolls it with the correct modifier already applied. Codex also checks the character against the rules and says so when something does not add up. If a sheet ends up with more skill ranks than the character's level allows, more feats than available slots, spells prepared that the caster can no longer cast, a cleric missing his two domains or a paladin who has stopped being Lawful Good, the sheet reports it and links to the tab where it is fixed. It never edits the character on its own - the correction is always the player's decision. The Encounter tab turns the same engine into a combat tracker: initiative order, a bestiary of 466 SRD creatures, per-combatant conditions, a battle grid with flanking, reach and range increments, and an encounter difficulty estimator. Encounters can be run solo or as a shared room, where a server validates every action rather than trusting the client. Characters can be built by hand or generated. Thirty-two archetype templates - twenty of them multiclass - produce a complete, rules-legal character at any level, with equipment bought from the wealth the SRD grants for that level and restricted to what the character is actually proficient with. Codex is bilingual (English and Spanish), free to use, and requires no installation or account to try.
