The Site of Many Things is live

Hey — thanks for signing up.

The Site of Many Things is officially live, and the first tool is ready to use: the Initiative Tracker.

This project exists for one simple reason: combat at the table should move fast. No spreadsheets. No clutter. No fiddly setup mid-session.

The Initiative Tracker v1.0 lets you:

  • Add PCs, enemies, allies, and environment entries
  • Automatically sort initiative from highest to lowest
  • Track turns and round numbers with next/back controls
  • Add conditions (including D&D 5e SRD conditions)
  • Create custom conditions with optional expiration
  • Visually distinguish combatants and effects at a glance

It’s free, works right in the browser, and doesn’t require an account.

This is just the foundation. Over time we’ll continue polishing the tracker, improving mobile layout, and adding more DM-focused tools as they’re ready.

If something slows you down during combat, or you have an idea that would make the tracker better, I genuinely want to hear it. The best features usually come from real tables.

Thanks for being early.

P.S. Yes i know we need to work on LITERALLY every other page on the site, haha that should be fixed in the coming weeks.
