FOR NEW PLAYERS
Your First Adventure Starts Here
Tabletop RPGs are games where you and your friends tell stories together — and your character is how you show up to that story. Abraxas Forge makes building that character simple, guided, and free.
The Basics
Everything you need to know before you start — explained without jargon.
So... what is a tabletop RPG?
Imagine a collaborative story where you and your friends are the main characters. One person describes the world and the challenges. Everyone else decides what their character does. There are no screens, no controllers — just imagination, dice, and a whole lot of fun. People have been playing games like this for decades, and they never get old.
What is a character?
Your character is your alter ego in the game world. Maybe a scrappy street thief with a heart of gold. Maybe a battle-worn knight haunted by an old regret. Maybe a curious scholar who gets into way too much trouble. You decide who they are, what they're good at, and what drives them.
What does Abraxas Forge do?
Abraxas Forge is a free tool that walks you through building your character, one simple step at a time. It asks you questions, explains your options in plain English, and fills in the details automatically. No rulebook required. No math degree needed.
Do I need to download anything?
Nope. Abraxas Forge lives entirely in your browser. No app to install, no account to sign up for. Open the link, start creating. It works on your phone, your tablet, your laptop — whatever you have handy.
How It Works
Pick a concept
Who do you want to be? A daring explorer? A reluctant hero? A cunning trickster? You start with a spark of an idea — no experience required. The Forge helps you shape that idea into a real character.
Build it your way
Abraxas Forge has a clean, intuitive interface that makes every choice obvious. Options are explained in plain language. Nothing is assumed. You'll see what fits your character, pick what feels right, and the Forge handles the math.
Play your character
When you're done, you'll have a complete character sheet ready to bring to the table. Share it with your group, pull it up on your phone, or print it out. You're ready to play.
Ready to Meet Your Character?
Your first character is waiting. It takes about ten minutes, it's completely free, and you might just fall in love with a hobby that lasts a lifetime.
