Shawarma

Music for your D&D table

Describe the scene your players are in, and Shawarma makes music for it. It loops for as long as the scene lasts.

Then change it by asking: darker when the dragon wakes, slower for the long walk, more rain on the tavern roof.

Tavern at night

a jig on guitar and flute, rain outside

  1. The door opensrain, lute
  2. The band playsrain, drum, lute, tune

Two more scenes

Then ask for changes

Once your song plays, type what it needs. It changes while it plays, and you keep only what you like.

  • Youmake the tavern louder and busier, a fight just started
  • Youadd thunder to the forest
  • Youmake the dungeon darker and slower
  • Youadd a war drum for the boss
  • Youmake it last the whole session without repeating too much

Made for game night

  • It loops

    Leave it playing for the whole scene. It plays as long as the page is open.

  • It changes with the story

    Ask for a fight version of the tavern song, or the forest at night.

  • No vocals

    Instrumentals only, so the music never talks over your players.

Questions

Can I play it during my game?
Yes. Open the song, press play and leave it looping. Share a link so your players can hear it too.
Can I make music for my own scenes?
Yes. Describe any scene in your own words: a market in the desert, a ship in a storm, a quiet temple. Then change it by asking.
Does it have vocals?
No. Shawarma makes instrumentals only, which is what most tables want under the talking.
