DM Deck

DM Deck is a tool for dungeon/game masters of TTRP's like Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder. It allows you to define characters, monsters, and encounters. Once these are created, you can "run" the encounters where you define the initiative order, and then get a card view of each participant as you go through initiative.

The character cards are not descriptive, as it is most often the players job to track their stats and abilities. The monster cards, however, are much more descriptive and resemble a typical "monster card".

The app comes pre-loaded with SRD monsters from Dungeons & Dragons. You are able to define your own monsters using this system.
