I was shown this site and just thought I'd post it here for anyone who might be interested.
http://www.seventhsanctum.com/It basically generates random things, whether for plots, story-lines, characters, etc. Some of the generators are also silly and simply fun to mess with.
If one needed help thinking something up this would be a good site to get a kick in the right direction. I think it would definitely help if someone was having problems trying to think up a good idea for a character, wanted to give a shot at running an event, or simply needed a fresh idea. You might have to do some digging to actually find the right idea (or a good one xD ) but it's a useful tool to have around.
The
weird name generator is especially fun.
