I do my best to keep this list up to date. However, be aware that licenses and details may change between updates. So check a resource’s license details before including one of the TTRPG resources in your project.

Also, check if a resource’s creator requires attribution before using the asset.

Simply because I didn’t find it! 

I am always looking for new TTRPG resources to add to this list. If you wish to add your project or resource, email me at StarshineScribbles@gmail.com with a link to your resource. Please title your email “Masterlist Addition.”

As mentioned at the start, I won’t be adding AI-generated art or resources to this list.

There are many reasons for this, but the biggest one is that I think we should support human artists, especially those in the TTRPG space, as they are often underpaid.

Additionally, AI art is a copyright nightmare, as the model that many AI art generators use is trained on art that the creators didn’t have permission to use. This is simply unfair to artists and creators.

While I try to make sure that no AI-generated art ends up on the list, some may slip through the cracks,

If you spot that I’ve linked to any AI-generated TTRPG resources, please email me at StarshineScribbles@gmail.com and I’ll remove it as soon as I can!

When writing the descriptions for the TTRPG resources, I try to use the creator’s words as much as possible. But in my efforts to keep this list concise, these descriptions may get edited slightly.

If you want the description changed, please email me at StarshineScribbles@gmail.com and title your email “Masterlist Description.”

No worries!

Just email me at StarshineScribbles@gmail.com and title your email “Masterlist Removal.”

Thank you!

This TTRPG resources list is offered for free. However, if you want to help keep me caffeinated, you can consider buying one of my games. 

I also accept donations via ko-fi.
