D&D 5e random encounter generator - updated for 2024 edition!

How to use:

Fill in your party level and size in the left box. Then decide what difficulty level you want. Click the generate button, and a fitting encounter will show up in the middle box.

Want a specific monster in the combat? Simply fill in the monster in the box on the left, then click generate. The encounter will be balanced according to your party level and the selected difficulty. This can be useful if you need minions for a boss fight!

Tip! You can also select what type of terrain your party is fighting in (see ‘Environment’ on the left). The encounter will then only use monsters that make sense for that environment.

Also take a look: at the Daggerheart encounter generator.
