DnD Wiki displays spells, feats, magic items, and other wiki content directly inside your notes. The plugin includes source configurations for both the 2014/5e and 2024 rules.
Features
- Display DnD entries as collapsible cards.
- Create complete or filtered lists of spells, weapons, feats, items and more.
- Display complete class pages, subclasses, and selected page sections.
- Get autocomplete for block types, names, and supported filters.
- Create experimental Markdown homebrew files in your vault.
Basics
Every DnD Wiki block follows this pattern:
dnd<version>-<content-type>
Two versions are configured by default:
5euses the DnD 5e source.2024uses the DnD 2024 source.
The content type determines what is displayed. Examples include spell, spelllist, weapon, weaponlist, feat, etc.
Autocomplete
You do not need to remember block names, spell names, or filter options. Start by typing:
```dnd
DnD Wiki suggests a version such as 5e or 2024, followed by available content types. For example, typing ```dnd5e- suggests spell, spelllist, feat, magicitem, and the other registered types.
Inside a block, autocomplete suggests known card names and supported directives.
DnD features
Individual blocks display named entries. List blocks load a collection and apply filters.
| Feature | Blocks |
|---|---|
| Spells | spell, spelllist |
| Feats | feat, featlist |
| Magic items | magicitem, magicitemlist |
| Weapons | weapon, weaponlist |
| Backgrounds | background, backgroundlist |
| Lineages | lineage, lineagelist |
| Class pages | classinfo |
| Custom wiki pages | custom |
For example, an individual block renders named entries:
```dnd5e-spell
Fireball
Mage Hand
```
A list block renders matching entries and can apply filters:
```dnd5e-spelllist
level: 3
class: Wizard
school: Evocation
```
Spell
The spell block displays one or more spells by name or identifier, one per line.
```dnd5e-spell
Fireball

Use section: to display one matching heading, or sectionFrom: to display that heading and following headings at the same level.
```dnd2024-classinfo
class: Warlock
subinfo: Eldritch Invocation
sectionFrom: Agonizing Blast
```
Custom wiki page
Loads content that does not have a dedicated DnD Wiki content type. It can use section: and sectionFrom: to select part of the page.
```dnd2024-custom
source: equipment:weapon
section: Mastery Properties
```
The source: value is appended directly to the selected base URL. Autocomplete suggests directive names, but not custom page paths or section names.
Custom Homebrew
Create a homebrew file from Settings → DnD Wiki → Homebrew templates → Add homebrew file, or run the Create homebrew file command. Each homebrew category includes a starter template you can copy and customize.
If you create or edit a homebrew file manually, run the Update homebrew content command or select Refresh homebrew in the settings to update the plugin's homebrew cache.
You can exclude homebrew files and folders by configuring ignored prefixes in the homebrew settings. The default prefix is _, so template files and folders beginning with _ are ignored automatically.
Data and privacy
DnD Wiki does not collect telemetry, analytics, usage statistics, vault filenames, or note contents.
The plugin sends network requests only to its configured D&D wiki sources. It downloads the index and content pages needed to render cards and lists.
Downloaded content is cached only in memory. It is not saved permanently and is discarded when Obsidian or the plugin restarts. The plugin permanently stores only its settings, such as configured source URLs. Homebrew files remain ordinary files in the user's vault.

Project note
This project is mostly for fun. I created it to make writing my DM and player notes in Obsidian easier and to reference DnD rules directly from those notes.
DnD Wiki depends on the structure of external wikis. If those wikis change, some features may stop working. I intend to fix issues when they arise.
Also sometimes the wiki pages may be temporarily unavailable, so the plugin won't be able to display content during those times.
