Free D&D Character Creator
Build a complete, rules-accurate D&D character sheet from guided choices or a plain-English idea. Choose the details yourself, or describe the hero you want and get stats, spells, gear, backstory, portrait, and export in seconds.
Build a full character sheet
This free D&D character creator produces the pieces you need at the table: ability scores, armor class, hit points, saving throws, skills, equipment, class features, spells, a backstory, and a matching portrait. The result is a playable sheet, not just a name and class.
Creator, builder, or generator?
Use it like a character builder when you already know the race or species, class, level, background, or feat you want. Use it like a generator when you only have a concept, such as “a haunted dwarf cleric whose god has gone quiet.” Either path leads to the same complete sheet on the character generator.
5e and 2024 rules supported
Create characters from level 1 to 20 using the 2024 rules by default, with classic 2014 5e one click away. The rules engine handles proficiency bonus, hit points, spell slots, class and subclass features, ability score improvements, feats, and multiclass prerequisites for the edition you choose.
AI creativity, rules-engine math
The AI handles the creative choices: personality, backstory, portrait direction, and character flavor. A deterministic rules engine handles the arithmetic, so stats, spell save DCs, prepared spell counts, attacks, and level scaling stay grounded in the rules instead of model guesses.
Portraits and VTT export
Every character can include an AI portrait matched to the concept, plus export for Foundry VTT and Roll20. If the portrait is the part you care about most, see the D&D character generator with portraits.
