Character Forge
A downloadable game
You're writing your latest masterpiece: A game laced with intrigue and adventure, or perhaps unhurried introspection. Your party nears their first — or latest — hurdle. But you, dear creator, face a hurdle of your own.
You need an NPC. And you're drawing a blank.
Character Forge is a solo journaling RPG to gamify your NPC development. It will guide you with a mix of randomization and deliberate selection options designed to unveil your NPC in surprising depth.
- Take away the grind of coming up with yet another NPC
- Create an unforgettable NPC for ANY genre — and have fun along the way!
- Play with a rough character sketch in mind or start from scratch and let the dice decide
- Journal from the NPC's perspective to capture their voice and life views
- Includes character basics, values, reputation, mindset, agenda, quirks, fears, secrets, and more.
Grab a journal and a dice set and play your way to a fully crafted NPC.
