This site was a project to make a list of available skills per Dungeon Degenerate character, which then went a bit overboard. It is based on the card CSS renderering work done by Stephan Beal for his excellent Morbad Tools site.

There is a total of 1079 entries in the site. Last updated Sun May 24 2026

Charlatan Magician

The Charlatan Magician is a master of deception & disguise. This wily wizard is an illusionist beyond compare; able to appear in two places at once or make a spectator's coin purse disappear entirely. With stunning displays of knife-throwing accuracy, legerdemain & ventriloquism, this cunning trickster is sly & savvy & always keeps you guessing. Alas, it may have been a grievous error to bring the show to the Würstfest of Brüttelburg; where a fine line is drawn between entertainment & witchcraft. Lesson learned, but at what cost?

Pigskin Port

The stench of Pigskin Port is infamous, its main street features row upon row of abattoirs, livestock pens & mazes of ramps & catwalks where herds of swine are led to the slaughter.
