A Keeper is one file. It opens in any browser and works offline. Drop it onto the shelf in Gnasher’s Grimoire and it installs there: the tables roll inside the app, and the Summon finds every loadout by name. This one is the Strahd loadouts guide from VillainCraft. Sixteen scene cards carry the guide, from the suit of armour con to the six loadouts and the ritual note at the end. Three tables roll: the rotation, the flip ladder, and a d6 of which Strahd walked in today. Type Warlord or Vasili into the Summon and the loadout comes up with its spell list on the card. It is the article, in a form the app can use at the table.
The rotation, d5. Observe, Test, Isolate, Bleed, Feast.
The flip ladder, d5. From the journal, which annoys him, to the one thing that scares him.
Which Strahd walked in today, d6. All Purpose, Recon, Social, Warlord, Vasili von Holtz, and The Answer for when they have the Sunsword.
The free Dungeon Master companion: your reference, your rolls and your trackers open on the screen while you play. The Keeper above installs straight into it. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.
