Most powerful ways to connect Monster API and Captions
Monster API + Captions + Slack: When a new monster description is generated using the Monster API's Photo Maker, Captions generates a suitable caption. The generated description and caption are then posted to a designated Slack channel for RPG campaign development.
Monster API + Captions + Discord bot: A new message in a specific Discord channel triggers the Monster API's Photo Maker, which generates a monster image.
