One of the best parts of tabletop roleplaying is creating characters. Not just their stats and abilities, but their stories, quirks, and the unforgettable moments that come out at the table. If you’re like me, you’ve probably spent hours brainstorming character backstories or searching for tools that make the process more fun.
That’s why I’m excited about Forging Legends, a brand-new supplement that just launched on Kickstarter. Forging Legends is built to help you breathe life into your characters, craft memorable backstories, and weave those details into the unfolding narrative of your campaign. Whether you’re a seasoned player looking to add new depth to your roleplay, or a game master hoping to spark ideas that connect your players’ characters to the world, this supplement is all about making your stories richer and more meaningful.
What really caught my attention is that it isn’t tied to one specific system. Whether you’re playing D&D, Pathfinder, or your favorite indie RPG, Forging Legends gives you ways to flesh out motivations and develop a character who feels alive from session one. It’s a book that wants to inspire as much as it equips.
If you’re someone who loves digging into character arcs, or if you’ve ever been stuck trying to come up with your “next great hero”, this might be exactly what you’re looking for.
The project is live now, and early backers can help unlock some exciting stretch goals. You can check it out here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/restlessentropygames/forging-legends-your-guide-to-creating-deep-characters
