The Plotweaver Roleplaying Game is an original game system created by Brotherwise Games. While Plotweaver was originally designed to support the Cosmere RPG, its depth and flexibility make it an excellent for a wide range of settings.

  • Familiar, but upgraded: If you’ve ever rolled a d20, you already know how to play Plotweaver. But Plotweaver takes d20-based play to the next level with a wide range of enhancements.

  • The plot die: A simple but powerful tool for adding excitement to key rolls, the plot die can add a narrative Opportunity or Complication to any scene.

  • Paths, not classes: Instead of rigid classes, Plotweaver characters can be completely customized via talent trees that allow you to build exactly the character concept you have in mind.

  • Progression-based: Plotweaver is ideal for stories where characters grow from ordinary people to remarkable heroes. Your character’s power grows in meaningful ways from level 1 to 20 and beyond.

  • Skill-based magic: When you want to use extraordinary abilities, you’re not limited to narrow “spell slots.” Magic, psionics, and superpowers take a more narrative approach that rewards creativity and improvisation.

  • Worlds collide: From swords and sorcery to blasters and spacecraft, this system was built to support storytelling that spans genres.

  • Open source: We want you to create the future of Plotweaver! Our open game license is designed to build a community of indie publishers.

We’re currently gathering a world-class team of creatives to build the future of this system. Our next step will be to recruit playtesters, then creators, then players and GMs! If you’re interested in becoming a part of the Plotweaver community, sign up for updates.
