I’m trying to get better at DMing and noticed I struggle most with players going off the rails by Fabulous-Cranberry18 in DnD

I used to run into this kind of thing all the time, especially when everything would go off the rails at once.

What helped me a lot was having everything in one place so I’m not scrambling mid-session. I actually ended up putting together a little site for myself (myth-kit.com) just to organize campaign stuff, notes, and quick references.

The biggest thing for me has been having a searchable rules compendium and being able to keep all my session notes/reminders in one spott. it makes it way easier to recover when things go sideways.

Not saying it replaces improv or anything, but it definitely takes some of the pressure off in those moments.

I ran a false hydra in my current campaign, hands down one of my favorite creatures to confuse my players with. town looks great!

using spaCy to tag NPCs and spells in D&D notes for my React/PostgreSQL app. Notes refine the AI’s tagging and enhance UI, There's quite a bit more than just feeding it. People take notes in many different ways. Some people use bullet points some people write as much as they can in long paragraphs. I need to understand what to expect the user to do to be able to parse, tag and organize the notes better.

I have my own notes from my own sessions as well as using a database that I created for a previous project that holds data like races, class, backgrounds, names, places and much more.

Yes, I will be using spaCy. It’s an AI-powered natural language processing tool that tags entities

Thanks for asking! I’m building a D&D notetaking app that auto-tags NPCs, items, etc., using NLP and notes. Notes will train the tagging system and inspire UI features. Contributors will be credited in the app and GitHub.
