A Hero Will Rise: Epic Fantasy
A character background generator for epic fantasy roleplaying campaigns. Players combine personal choices, d20 rolls, and draws from a standard deck of cards to determine a hero’s upbringing, family, former profession, and formative challenges. The results provide narrative details, character abilities, bonuses, Minor Hindrances, and story hooks. The system can also generate NPC backgrounds or serve as a writing prompt for fantasy characters.
