Building Character

BUILDING CHARACTER is a procedural generator for Sword & Backpack characters. Intended to be used alongside Kaznath's Hack of Sword & Backpack or the Sword & Backpack Player's Almanac, this trifold pamphlet provides a random generation method that follows character development up until the start of the adventure. With this one resource, a Sword & Backpack character can be constructed in mere minutes with a comprehensive backstory to start. 

BUILDING CHARACTER is inspired by procedural generation games like TRAVELER and TUNNEL GOONS by Nate Treme. It assumes a world in which formal education exists alongside guild-like professional internship; as well as a post-war setting; but its procedural generation method can be easily modified for any setting. 

We hope you enjoy!
