Plotweaveris a new open source RPG system by Brotherwise Games. It’s the system powering the record-breaking Cosmere® RPG, with new partnerships and original settings coming in 2027. Plotweaver combines rich mechanics with a narrative-first philosophy, telling stories of heroic action in which characters grow and advance over the course of epic fantasy and sci-fi campaigns.

Plotweaver is a fully open system that invites you to build your own worlds, settings, and mechanics. Publish original content with no restrictions, or expand the Tapestry of official Plotweaver worlds. Plotweaver is coming to crowdfunding in 2027, but our community is already growing!
