Scene Starter Generator

Stuck mid-session? Need an opening scene for a one-shot? Hit the button below to generate a location, a complication, a ticking clock, an NPC with a want, and an opening question. Setting-agnostic, so flavor the details to fit your world.

No scene generated yet. Press the button below.

How to use this: Read each element aloud to your table. Ask the opening question to a player. Let their answer establish the fiction, then introduce the complication. The Ticking Clock gives the scene urgency; set it at 4 or 6 segments depending on pacing.
