Using Obsidian for D&D and Other Tabletop Games
Campaign prep is a linking problem, which is why Obsidian fits tabletop games so well: NPCs reference locations, sessions reference both, and the graph view shows the web your campaign actually is. The D&D Campaign Vault is the table-ready half of this category, with folders for sessions, NPCs, locations, encounters, player characters and lore, a DM Screen dashboard built on Dataview, and a complete original mini-campaign inside: three narrated sessions, eight NPCs, four linked locations and three encounters, so every query demonstrates itself with real play data. It is rules-compatible with fifth edition but contains no text from any published rulebook.
The Worldbuilding Vault is the setting-building half, aimed at game masters and novelists alike. Every place, character, faction and event declares its connections in relational frontmatter, so Dataview assembles the indexes and the timeline while the graph view reveals the shape of the world. It ships with an original low-magic example setting of about twenty densely interlinked notes.
Use them in sequence or together: build the world in one, run the campaign in the other, or merge them into a single vault, since both follow the same one-note-per-entity pattern. Dataview is the one required plugin for both; Leaflet and Initiative Tracker are optional extras on the campaign side.
