🚀 Finding your way around

GameMasterBuddy is a single app with several work areas. Once approved and signed in, you land on the dashboard and from there you reach every tool. This page is the map of the app: what each section contains and how to move between them, plus how to switch language.

The dashboard

It's your home base after signing in. It shows the cards for the various features: from here you open the chat, the creator, portraits, tools, the cartographer and the rest. Anyone already signed in comes straight here, skipping the public intro page. Each card takes you into the matching tool; to return to the dashboard you use the app's navigation.

The main areas

Here's what you find and what each section is for:

• Master AI — the chat over the manuals. Ask a rules or setting question and get an answer with sources. It keeps a history of conversations with folders to organize them.
• Character creator — build PCs and NPCs. It supports Vulcania and D&D 5e/Eberron, exports to PDF and saves to your account.
• Portraits — generate a character image (head-and-shoulders) by choosing race, archetype, colors and style; save it to your gallery.
• One-shot Studio — create a self-contained adventure step by step, up to export.
• Campaigns — organize your games, link one-shots and NPCs, keep each campaign's material together.
• Library — the archive of everything you've made: Characters, Portraits, Images, Manuals and Journals.
• Tools — the hub of the free tabletop tools, with a subpage for each (dice, tracker, generators, stat sheets, timers, notes, document reader).
• Bench — a composable canvas where you drag several tools together as blocks and save the layout as a preset.
• Cartographer — the top-down map editor for preparing battle maps.
• Online table — the virtual tabletop with map, tokens and fog, to project to players during the game.

Prep tools vs table tools

A useful way to orient yourself is to tell two families apart:

• Prep (before the game): Creator, Portraits, One-shot Studio, Cartographer. You use them at leisure to build your material.
• At the table (during the game): Tools, Bench, Online table. You keep them open while you play to roll dice, manage initiative and show the map.

Switching language IT/EN

GMB is fully bilingual. The language is written in the pages' address: /it for Italian and /en for English. On your first visit the app picks the language from your browser's, and remembers it. To switch between them you use the language switch in the interface: the same page reloads in the other language, keeping you where you are.
