Private Discord bot · D&D 5e, 2024 rules

The dice are
the easy part.

Any bot can roll 1d20. BardicAI adjudicates the turn — attack rolls against real AC, saving throws, damage types checked against resistances, conditions that expire on their own, concentration that breaks when it should. Your server, your table.

BardicAI

Masked construct, chaotic good


  • Rules SRD 5.2.1 — the 2024 rules, and only those
  • Combat Attacks and spells, fully adjudicated
  • Commands 59 slash commands, all documented below
  • Table Private to your server, and the DM screen stays closed

Traits

What it actually does


Six things worth installing it for. Everything here runs on the bot's own rules engine, not on someone at the table remembering to apply the modifier.

A rules engine, not a macro. Attacks, spells, saves, conditions, auras and concentration all resolve mechanically. Resistances and immunities apply themselves, death saves follow RAW down to the automatic failures on a natural 1, and multiattack, grapples and legendary actions are adjudicated rather than narrated.

D&D Beyond, natively. /ddb import pulls the whole sheet — ability scores, HP math, skills, spells, weapons, inventory, portrait. It re-syncs on its own when a player joins initiative with a sheet that changed, and magic item bonuses (a Wand of the War Mage's spell attack bonus) are read from the sheet's own data.

A co-DM that reads the room. /dm is a private assistant that already knows the live encounter: initiative order, current HP, active effects, monster stat blocks. Hand it a monster's turn, ask it a rules question, or let it run legendary actions — the players never see the conversation.

Speak as anyone. /say and /write post in character under the right name and face: any PC with their D&D Beyond portrait, any monster in the fight with its token art, or the Dungeon Master persona. Full Markdown, and a drop-in replacement for Tupperbox.

Dice with a grammar. /roll handles advantage, keep and drop, and exploding dice. /check knows which proficiencies your character actually has. Every result shows the individual dice, labeled by die size, so nobody has to take the bot's word for it.

Campaigns that keep secrets. A campaign binds to one or more channels. Creating one takes Discord's Manage Server permission — the admin who runs it becomes the DM and can deputize co-DMs. Players never see monster defenses, hidden notes, or anything else from behind the screen — the boundary is enforced by the bot everywhere, not remembered command by command.

Multiattack

One bot instead of three


A 5e server usually ends up running a sheets-and-dice bot, a second bot so people can post in character, and a third that just rolls dice. BardicAI covers what your table uses all three for, under one set of slash commands.

Usually Avrae

Sheets, dice and initiative

Import a character from D&D Beyond, roll checks that already know your proficiencies, keep initiative in order. BardicAI does that much, then keeps going: attacks and spells resolve their real effects — damage measured against resistances, conditions that stick and expire, concentration, death saves — instead of leaving the arithmetic to whoever is paying attention. /dm adds a co-DM that knows the encounter.

Usually Tupperbox

Speaking in character

/say and /write post as any PC with their D&D Beyond portrait, any monster in the fight with its token art, or the Dungeon Master. The bot already knows who is in the scene, so there are no proxy tags to register — and nothing has to read your channel to make it work.

Usually a dice bot

Rolling anything else

/roll takes a full grammar — advantage, keep and drop, exploding dice — and shows every die it rolled, labelled by size. /check handles the ones tied to a character. That is one fewer name in the member list.

Consolidation, not parity. This is about the jobs a table actually uses those bots for. If yours leans on Avrae's alias and workshop ecosystem, that is a deep thing of its own and BardicAI makes no attempt to reimplement it.

Actions

How a turn feels


Stick casts Chromatic Orb from a 3rd-level slot and picks acid. One command: /cast spell:Chromatic Orb target:Grick Alpha level:3 damage-type:acid.

The bot rolls the spell attack with the character's real modifier, compares it to the target's AC, rolls the base 3d8 plus 1d8 per slot level above 1st, applies whatever the target resists or ignores, and writes the new hit points down.

Every die is shown. Nothing about the grick's defenses is — the players get the number, the DM gets the reasoning.

Stick

Chromatic Orb — acid

Spell attack d20 [17] + 9 = 26 vs AC 15 — Hit
Damage 30 acid — 3d8 + 1d8 + 1d8 [3, 8, 7, 4, 8]
Result Grick Alpha takes 30 damage — Bloodied

Round 2 · concentration not required

Getting started

Two ways in


Players need about a minute. Opening a table takes about as long.

For players

Join a table


  1. Get into the server

    Your DM adds BardicAI once. If you can see the play channel, you can use it.

  2. Import your character

    Set your D&D Beyond sheet to public, then run /ddb import with the character URL. Stats, HP, skills, spells, weapons, inventory and portrait come across.

  3. Roll initiative

    /join when the fight starts. If you levelled up or changed gear since last session, the sheet syncs on the way in.

  4. Stay in character

    /say posts as your character, portrait and all. /roll and /check handle everything else.

For DMs

Run a table


  1. Invite BardicAI

    Add the bot to the server you play in. Invite link.

  2. Open your campaign

    /bardic campaign create in your play channel (needs Discord's Manage Server permission). You become the DM automatically, and can deputize co-DMs with /bardic dm add.

  3. Add your other channels

    Play across several channels? Bind each one to the campaign with /bardic.

  4. Start the fight

    /encounter opens initiative and pins the tracker. Your players /join, and you are running combat.
