Everything You Need to Play for Real
AI-powered narration, real dice mechanics, persistent worlds, and multiplayer party play. The RPG experience MMO players wished they had and tabletop players can finally access on their own schedule.
Persistent World Infrastructure
Living Worlds That Remember You
Three sessions ago, you saved the Barkeep's daughter from bandits. He hasn't forgotten. He won't forget. Ever. Not because the AI is "trying to remember" — because the world was built to remember.
Your relationships, reputation, enemies, and debts are stored permanently — not in an AI context window, but in real world state infrastructure.
Come back in six months. The world knows exactly who you are. The NPC who helped you still trusts you. The faction you betrayed still wants your head.
This is the core differentiator between RoleForge and other AI RPG tools. Other platforms rely on AI memory tricks or summarization that lose details over time. RoleForge's persistence is structural — it's game infrastructure, not a prompt engineering hack.
Not Just Dungeons. Not Just Dragons.
Multiple Rulesets and Genres
Space opera with real ship combat. Gothic horror with sanity mechanics. Play a regency romance with reputation tracking. Explore the worlds we've built — or build your own.
RoleForge supports multiple rulesets including d20 Fantasy, Old School Fantasy, with Sci-Fi, Horror, and more coming soon. Each ruleset has its own mechanics, character options, and world-building conventions.
The AI Game Master adapts its narration to match the genre — gritty noir for detective stories, sweeping prose for high fantasy, clinical precision for sci-fi. But the rules underneath don't change to suit the mood.
New genres and rulesets are always expanding. The platform is designed so that any game system can be added without breaking existing worlds.
Real Dice Mechanics
The AI Narrates. The Rules Decide.
You rolled a 3. You missed. The AI doesn't get to decide you hit anyway. The rules decide. Real dice rolls that determine real outcomes.
This is what separates RoleForge from freeform AI storytelling tools. The dice and the ruleset determine what happens — the AI's job is to describe it, not decide it. Your victories mean something because they were earned, not scripted.
Every roll is visible. Every modifier is tracked. Every rule is applied consistently. The AI handles the narration and NPC behavior, but the mechanical outcomes are deterministic.
When you crit, you crit. When you fail, you fail. The AI makes both outcomes interesting — but it never overrides the game system to give you a better story.
Maps, Tokens, Fog of War — All Tiers
Built-in Virtual Tabletop
Interactive battle maps with fog of war, token movement, and initiative tracking. The only VTT with a built-in AI Game Master.
Every tier includes the full virtual tabletop experience. Move tokens, reveal fog of war, and track initiative — all managed by the AI Game Master.
No need to switch between a VTT and a separate AI tool. The tabletop and the game master are the same platform, sharing the same world state.
Bring your own voice chat (Discord, Zoom, whatever you prefer) for multiplayer sessions. RoleForge handles the tabletop, you handle the conversation.
Solo Now, Party Play Coming Soon
Your Schedule. Your Party. Your World.
Tuesday night with twenty minutes to spare? Perfect. Saturday afternoon with nothing planned? Even better. Your world is always there, always exactly as you left it.
RoleForge is built for the reality of adult schedules. No coordinating with four other people. No cancelling because someone can't make it. Just you and a living world, whenever you want.
Jump in for a quick encounter on a lunch break, or play for hours on a weekend. Your world persists exactly as you left it — come back in a day or six months.
Multiplayer party play is on the roadmap. When it arrives, friends will join your living world — same NPCs, same consequences, same history. No separate campaigns, no starting over. Solo when you want, full table when your friends are on.
On the Roadmap
Here's what we're building next. RoleForge is in active development and these features are on our near-term roadmap.
Multiplayer Party Play
Coming SoonInvite friends into your living world. Same NPCs, same consequences, same history — no separate campaigns, no starting over. Solo when you want, party when your friends are on.
Deep Character System
Coming SoonCreate characters from scratch — backstory, personality, portrait, all of it. Then earn XP, unlock new abilities, and level up session by session. Multi-class, specialize, or forge a path no one expected.
Quests, Factions, and Hidden Story Arcs
Coming SoonWander freely in worlds that evolve over time. Discover random encounters, stumble into story hooks, and watch the world react to what you do.
AI Mercenary Companions
Coming SoonNeed a healer? Hire one. Need muscle? Same. AI mercenaries join your party with their own personalities, motives, and combat styles — and they won't always agree with your plan.
Human GM + AI Assistant Mode
Coming SoonA human GM drives the narrative while AI handles rules lookups and dice rolls. All the creative control, none of the bookkeeping.
World and Campaign Editor
Coming SoonCreate your own adventures and publish them for community play. Build worlds, tune encounters, and share what you make.
Illustrated Chronicles
Coming SoonYour adventures become a shareable story — an illustrated chronicle you can revisit, share, and keep as your campaign history.
