FoundryVTT AI Monster Text Importer

Import any monster stat block right into FoundryVTT using GPT!

DnD5e and GPT-4 support only for now, more systems and LLMs to come!

Video Demo

Here is a short video demo importing a Couatling by copy-pasting text from D&D Beyond (but you can import from any stat block you want!)

Prerequisites

Subscribe to an OpenAI plan with GPT-4 access (Required) Sign up for a plan on the OpenAI Website

This module currently uses gpt-4-turbo-preview to power its text content parsing. Models that are available through the free plan (i.e. gpt-3.5-turbo) after testing do not provide accurate results. Support for other LLM providers, including Ollama, is in development.

Import the DnD 5e SRD (Recommended but not necessary) The importer uses your existing compendium monsters/items for spells, item examples and some assets.

• Option 1 - If you're using a late enough version, do this through FoundryVTT's provided D&D content
• Option 2 - Use D&D Beyond Importer for Foundry VTT to import all the free SRD content on D&D Beyond

Usage

• Download and install this module via the FoundryVTT Add-on Module Marketplace
• Open the AI Monster Importer with the button at the top of the Actors tab
• (Do this once) You will be prompted for your OpenAI API key, enter it and click "Save and Validate"
• Copy-paste a monster text block into the box and click "Submit"

That's it!

• After parsing your monster, the actor sheet will pop up and display the goods.
• You can select a compendium to send your monsters to - a default one will be created if you don't!
• While parsing, you'll see a breakdown of the different processes as they start and end.
• Click "Import Another" and keep going!

The Future

There is a lot to be done here in the way of optimization and extending functionality, we're just getting started!

• Leverage more advanced LLMs as they come
• Prompt optimization
• Support other Systems ...and more
