Hello fellow Playgrounders!
I love D&D 5e and after hanging out on the forums for a few years I noticed people frequently complained of 5e's lack of tables and set DCs. I had mostly accepted this as truth, until I read post on this forum which convinced that me it may be worthwhile to re-evaluate my opinion.
So I dug through all the 5e books that I own and started recording every table and rule that I thought I would want on hand as a DM, which book it was in, what page it was on, etc... It turned into kind of a digital DM Screen spreadsheet.
Not being one to take the shortest path, I decided to take all this data and turn it into a web app. And so the 5e SuperIndex was born.
It's a tool to help DMs find what they need quickly, regardless of which books that it's in. I have provided links to various tables and resources where appropriate, though outside the DMG and PHB these web resources are very rare.
I'm quite happy with how it turned out, even as I suppress my developer's urge to implement 17 additional features. =)
I hope some of you find it useful, and I'd happy to answer any questions or accept any feedback you have.
