Tomorrow is Free RPG Day, a day when publishers across the tabletop role-playing game industry release games for players both new and experienced, and they’re all completely free. Although Free RPG Day was cancelled in 2020, it’s back this year as a live event with some virtual support by way of free RPG sampler downloads from Dungeon Crawl Classics and Paizo.
PCGen is an application designed to help you build and maintain characters. It even has knowledge of the rules of the system it’s assisting you with. Far from just a configuration file generator, PCGen is a database of open source rules and how they relate to one another over the course of a character’s life.
PCGen can build characters for D&D 5e, Pathfinder 1e, Starfinder, and Fantasy Craft. When you first launch PCGen, you can download rule definitions for each game.
