More Than A Number

You scribble words and phrases on your sheet, hastily colouring in dots as you go. Countless pages flipped. Line after line, copied and pasted. Abilities, attributes, backgrounds and skills are referenced, compared and recorded. Stats derived and points allocated. You sit back in your chair, looking at the work of art you just created.

A brand new character.

Except...

You were so busy thinking about what your character can do that you didn’t give much thought to who they are. Are they serious? Did they live an orderly, traditional lifestyle before they were swept up in adventure? Were they living out loud, ready for the next exciting thing to come their way?

We’ve all been there. We spent all of our time pouring over the mechanics in a book, trying to get our characters perfect, but then struggling to figure out how to play them. The aim of this tool is to help provide inspiration for who your character is.
