About Green God Games

What is Green God Games?

Green God Games (GGG) is an independent tabletop role-playing game company founded by four lifelong RPG enthusiasts: Paul Ostrowski, Vaughn Ripley, Tim Potts, and Mike Follin.

Together, we bring approximately 160 years of gaming experience across more than 50 tabletop RPG systems.

We’re creating innovative RPG tools, original adventures, campaign settings, and resources to make your gaming sessions even more memorable.

What kinds of products does Green God Games offer?

We’re developing a growing collection of tabletop RPG resources, including:

  • Online tools for Game Masters and players.
  • Original adventures and campaign settings.
  • Monsters, characters, and gaming resources.
  • Maps, sourcebooks, and other tabletop gaming goodies.

Our first major release is Monster Forge, and there’s plenty more in development!

Is Green God Games affiliated with Wizards of the Coast?

No. Green God Games is an independent tabletop RPG publisher and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Wizards of the Coast.

Dungeons & Dragons and related trademarks belong to their respective owners.

Can you tell me more about Kollide?

Kollide is our Director of Public Relations, Head of Security, and unofficial Human Resources department. He’s a 7-foot mountain of muscle, questionable hygiene, and unresolved anger issues.

His qualifications include crushing skulls, intimidating dragons, and once successfully negotiating a peace treaty by eating the opposing diplomat.

Kollide takes customer service very seriously. Unfortunately, he considers most customers a threat.

He’s currently on his third anger management counselor. The first two are still missing.

Fun fact: Kollide has never lost an argument. Or learned to read.

If you’d like to meet him, he’s usually guarding our Coming Soon pages. Just don’t make eye contact, ask when something will be ready, or use words with more than two syllables.

Green God Games is an equal opportunity employer. Kollide is not.

Monster Forge

What is Monster Forge?

Monster Forge is our online monster creation and customization tool for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition.

It allows Game Masters to create original monsters, customize existing creatures, and build memorable encounters without spending hours manually assembling stat blocks.

Think of it as your personal monster workshop, minus the screaming villagers and questionable laboratory experiments.

Can I create my own monsters from scratch?

Absolutely!

Monster Forge lets you create original creatures and customize their statistics, abilities, attacks, defenses, and other characteristics.

Whether you’re building a low-level nuisance or a campaign-ending nightmare, the Forge is yours to command.

Can I modify an existing monster?

Of course! That’s one of the best things about Monster Forge.

Start with an existing creature and adjust it to suit your adventure.

Want a fire-breathing troll? An unusually intelligent ogre? A goblin with delusions of godhood?

Go for it. Your players will thank you. Eventually.

Do I need an account to use Monster Forge?

You can use the core monster creation and customization tools for free.

An account or paid membership may be required for features such as saving your homebrewed monsters online.

Is there a tutorial for Monster Forge?

Absolutely! We’ve created a quick, five-minute introduction to help you get started.

Watch the Monster Forge tutorial:

Who is Vorthazul?

Ah, you’ve met our little bundle of sunshine!

Vorthazul, the Rimefire Demon, is the official Monster Forge mascot.

He’s a terrifying Challenge Rating 18 demon who combines fire and ice into devastating attacks.

We created Vorthazul using Monster Forge to demonstrate the kinds of creatures you can unleash upon your unsuspecting players.

He’s available for birthday parties, although we strongly recommend fire insurance.

Where do you source your monster DB from?

We get all our data (monsters, magic items, PC races, classes, etc) from http://open5e.com/. At the bottom of each monster you will see a link to the license for the provider of that monster data (usually https://open5e.com/legal).

Adventures and Gaming Resources

Does Green God Games publish adventures and campaign settings?

That’s the plan!

We’re developing original tabletop adventures, campaign settings, sourcebooks, and additional gaming resources.

Our goal is to provide memorable experiences for Game Masters and players, whether they’re running a one-shot adventure or an epic campaign.

What is Ashorn?

Ashorn is an expansive fantasy city setting under development by Green God Games.

Located in the Eastern Marches of Averath, Ashorn features political intrigue, powerful factions, ancient mysteries, dangerous districts, and countless opportunities for adventure.

We’re designing Ashorn as a rich, game-agnostic resource that Game Masters can incorporate into their own campaigns.

Are your adventures compatible with D&D?

Our products may support different tabletop RPG systems depending on the release.

We’ll clearly identify compatibility and supported rulesets for each product.
