There many tools out there that are helpful for world and character creation.

Positive Consequences

A place to put related tools is helpful.

Negative Consequences

A small amount of space and time is used.

Option graveyard:

  • Option: The status quo.
  • Rejection Reason: This solves nothing.

If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?

These are not small tools.

Is there a reason why this should be core and done by us?

Writing down stuff that’s useful.
