  • ChatGPT custom GPT
  • GPT-4 system prompt
  • DALL-E image generation

A custom ChatGPT GPT that runs D&D 5e adventures with a whimsical narrator voice. Every turn renders a DALL-E image alongside the narration, so the visual + the prose move forward together.

What it does

  • Plays a freeform Dungeon Master — no campaign rails, players define their character on the fly and the world reacts.
  • Generates a fresh DALL-E image every turn, consistent-ish with the prior scene.
  • Rolls d20s + standard 5e dice internally; doesn’t pretend to be fully rules-correct, leans on vibes-first DM-ing.
  • Available at fakedm.com (redirects to the custom GPT page on ChatGPT) for direct sharing.

Why this isn’t a full app

Because the custom GPT layer is good enough. The product is the system prompt + image-generation cadence, not a separate frontend. Less code, faster to iterate, no infra to babysit.
