This thing that you non Zanzians call the internet is a wonderful thing indeed. There are tons of free dungeon master resources on the web for dungeon masters who are interested in producing their own dungeons, tombs and catacombs. There are, of course, tons of blogs such as this one. But there are also many valuable tools that can make your job easier. Some examples include:

Riddles – I love riddles. They have lots of uses in the dungeon. But I am not so much a fan of creating them myself. So I steal them from any source that I can. And this link is from Thieve’s Guild so they should understand completely. 

En World Fantasy Library Generator – Libraries are important to us Lich. I mean, when you are around for hundreds or even thousands of years, reading is about the only entertainment we get other than killing the occasional trespasser in our tombs. This generator creates book titles and authors for you to put in your libraries that the delvers wander into.

Fantasy Name Generator – Why spend time thinking of a name for that giant king or evil wizard for your adventure. This tool will give you a list of suggestions. It will even make gender specific suggestions.

Dragonsfoot.org – This is one of the oldest and best places to meet others to talk to about classic role playing games. And there are tons of free modules and resource materials there for the would be dungeon master. Be warned though…. it is primarily old school material. You will not find much 5E material there. 

Character Generator for 5E – Gives you an automated way to create NPCs with stats.

Orc Pub Character Generator for 5E – Another fine tool for generating 5E characters and npcs.

Dragonsfoot Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Character Generator – A tool for you old school guys to make npcs and characters quickly

AD&D Treasure Generator – For those of you too lazy to roll the dice or select your own! Or for those who have not yet read my Tome of Treasure!

AD&D NPC Generator – Another fine tool from Scruffy Grognards

Town Generator – Could be used by any edition 

Another Town Generator – Also suggests shops and details about the population

A really nice City/Town Generator – Some nice maps come from this one
