StarForgeRP is a community-built archive and reference resource for collaborative roleplay set in the era of Star Wars: The Old Republic.
Characters, stories, locations, lore, and shared history are preserved here as part of an ongoing continuity. Use the archive to follow developing stories, research the setting, discover characters and organizations, find opportunities for roleplay, or understand how past events continue to shape the present.
StarForgeRP does not replace roleplay on Discord, in-game, or through other agreed formats. It gives that roleplay a lasting record—a setting that remembers what happened and gives future stories something to build upon.
StarForgeRP currently places the present day of its shared continuity in 3621 BBY. Established SWTOR story material is incorporated through Game Update 7.9: Legacy Reborn, the conclusion of the Legacy of the Sith storyline.
The renewed conflict between the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire remains one of the defining pressures on the galaxy, affecting governments, militaries, trade, security, and communities across contested space. Their struggle is important, but it is not the only story being told.
Independent governments, Mandalorians, criminal networks, corporations, mercenaries, local organizations, Force traditions, frontier communities, and countless individuals continue to pursue their own interests. Some characters may become directly involved in galactic conflicts; others may experience their consequences only indirectly—or build lives and stories far from the major fronts.
This leaves room for roleplay at many scales: military operations, political maneuvering, intelligence work, criminal enterprises, exploration, local disputes, professional rivalries, personal relationships, community problems, or stories that begin with nothing more dramatic than two characters having a reason to meet.
Established SWTOR history provides the foundation. StarForgeRP stories develop alongside that history rather than replacing its central protagonists or rewriting major established events. Community roleplay can nevertheless leave lasting personal, organizational, local, and regional consequences within the shared continuity.
Every part of StarForgeRP answers a different question about the shared setting. Use the sections below to find the people, subjects, history, stories, and places most relevant to your character or roleplay.
Discover the people who inhabit StarForgeRP. Character dossiers preserve backgrounds, affiliations, relationships, significant events, current circumstances, and roleplay hooks while showing how characters change through ongoing play.
Learn about the factions, organizations, species, cultures, Force traditions, technologies, historical subjects, and other concepts that shape life in the Old Republic era. Entries focus on the context most useful for characters and stories.
Follow established SWTOR history and StarForgeRP community developments through a shared chronology. Use the Timeline to understand what happened, when it happened, and which consequences continue to matter.
Discover the stories unfolding across StarForgeRP. Browse current storylines, campaigns and story arcs, missions, events, roleplay hooks, and completed stories preserved within the archive.
Explore the places where stories happen, from planets and systems to cities, settlements, bases, strongholds, facilities, ruins, and other locations important to StarForgeRP continuity.
Learn how StarForgeRP works, including how to get started, how continuity and canon are handled, expectations for collaborative roleplay, character dossier guidance, terminology, and frequently asked questions.
Discover selected entries from across StarForgeRP. Featured content highlights characters, stories, locations, and lore with particular relevance to current activity, useful connections to the wider setting, or opportunities for further roleplay.
[Introduce the character in two or three sentences. Focus on their present circumstances, important connections, goals, conflicts, or unresolved situations. Give another player a reason to open the dossier rather than merely summarizing the character's biography.]
[Explain the story's central situation, who or what it affects, and why it matters to the current continuity. For active stories, identify believable opportunities for involvement where appropriate. For completed stories, emphasize consequences that remain relevant.]
[Describe why this location matters for roleplay now. Emphasize the characters, organizations, conflicts, services, dangers, or ongoing situations connected to it rather than providing a miniature planetary encyclopedia entry.]
[Briefly explain what the subject is, why understanding it is useful for roleplay, and which characters, organizations, locations, or current stories make it especially relevant.]
StarForgeRP grows alongside its characters, stories, and shared continuity. Recent Updates highlights newly added material, significant revisions, completed stories, continuity changes, and other developments worth returning to the archive to see.
[Summarize what was added or changed in one or two sentences. When useful, explain why the update matters—for example, a new character available for connections, the conclusion of an active story, a lasting change to a location, or a newly documented piece of continuity.]
StarForgeRP treats roleplay as part of a persistent shared history. Characters, relationships, organizations, locations, and stories can change over time, and developments that matter beyond a single scene can become part of the wider archive.
Characters may succeed, fail, change loyalties, form relationships, create enemies, gain responsibilities, suffer setbacks, or leave situations unresolved. Organizations can gain or lose influence. Alliances can change. Locations can be damaged, rebuilt, occupied, abandoned, or given new importance through the stories that take place there.
When those developments matter to future roleplay, they can be reflected across character histories, relationships, campaign records, organization entries, location pages, and the Timeline. A later story can therefore inherit circumstances created months or years earlier rather than beginning from an unchanged setting.
No single player-character needs to determine the fate of the galaxy for their actions to matter. A failed mission, damaged friendship, contested settlement, new alliance, professional rivalry, political decision, discovery, or unresolved debt can create consequences that continue long after the original scene ends.
You do not need to know every part of SWTOR lore or read the entire archive before getting involved.
Start with enough context to understand the current setting and where your character fits. From there, explore characters they might know, locations they might visit, organizations they might encounter, or active stories and roleplay hooks that give them a believable reason to interact with the wider setting.
The Getting Started guide explains the basic continuity, archive structure, character considerations, and next steps for participating.
A character becomes connected to StarForgeRP through the relationships, loyalties, ambitions, conflicts, choices, and consequences that develop through play. You do not need their entire future planned in advance.
One useful connection is enough to begin: a person they know, a place they frequent, an organization they serve, a problem they need solved, an obligation they cannot ignore, or an unanswered question that brings them into contact with someone else.
