A living archive for Star Wars: The Old Republic roleplay.
StarForgeRP connects characters, places, organizations, and stories within a persistent shared setting. Centered on characters played on SWTOR’s Star Forge server, this community-built archive preserves the relationships, discoveries, decisions, and consequences that give future roleplay its history.
Participants may play in SWTOR, through Discord, or in another mutually agreed format. Begin with a character, explore the setting, or follow a story through the people and places it changes.
Current Setting explains StarForgeRP’s shared present, including the SWTOR developments incorporated into its continuity and the circumstances surrounding contemporary stories. Consult it when a character’s background, age, affiliations, or experiences depend on galactic events.
Shared history also develops through play. A discovery, changed relationship, accepted responsibility, or unresolved loss can remain important after a scene ends. The archive preserves those connections while leaving future choices to the participants.
Choose a starting point, then follow its connections across the archive.
Discover individual lives through dossiers covering backgrounds, relationships, affiliations, abilities, and present circumstances. Find the people behind shared history and possible connections for future encounters.
Explore species, cultures, factions, organizations, Force traditions, and technology. Understand the influences surrounding a character while leaving room for individual beliefs, loyalties, and choices.
Follow significant SWTOR history and StarForgeRP events. Check dates and sequence, understand earlier periods, and trace developments whose consequences continue into later stories.
Find campaigns, missions, gatherings, and developing narratives. Explore possible involvement or revisit concluded stories through the outcomes and unresolved questions they left behind.
Explore worlds, settlements, facilities, strongholds, ruins, and persistent vessels. Discover homes, workplaces, destinations, and recurring meeting places connected to characters and their stories.
Find help with participation, character development, dossiers, continuity, terminology, and collaborative play. Use the guidance that answers your current question and return as your character develops.
A first encounter can grow from ordinary circumstances: a delivery, a shared interest, a request for expertise, or an unfinished obligation. Start with a character who has a reason to meet someone and room to respond to what happens.
Look for possible connections through someone’s work, interests, relationships, or familiar places. Read their dossier before proposing shared history. Information available to readers is not automatically known by their characters.
Follow ongoing situations through their established developments and unanswered questions. Read the individual records for participation details; a continuing story does not automatically invite additional characters.
Find guidance for creating an opening and check for listed opportunities. For missions seeking or considering additional characters, explore Recruiting Missions and read each record’s conditions for involvement.
Agree on connections with the players involved, leave room for their characters’ choices, and let the encounter establish what follows.
