StarForgeRP is an independent fan project supporting Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR) roleplay, centered on characters played on the Star Forge server. Its reference pages and story archive connect the people, places, organizations, and events of a persistent shared setting.
Participants may play in SWTOR, on Discord, or through another mutually agreed format. The archive keeps meaningful developments connected across those experiences, helping readers understand earlier stories and discover possibilities for new ones.
Stories leave changes behind. An alliance formed, a responsibility accepted, or a discovery left unexplained can affect characters long after an encounter ends. StarForgeRP preserves the context needed to carry those developments into future play.
Records focus on what remains useful: who was involved, what changed, and which consequences or questions endure. Everyday exchanges need not all receive separate entries. A concluded story can still leave room for another to begin.
Explore the Story Archive for concluded stories, their established outcomes, and their continuing consequences. Its records contain story-outcome spoilers and may include information unavailable to characters.
To contribute archive material or request a correction, use Contact and identify the relevant subject or existing page. Proposed contributions are reviewed; publication is not guaranteed.
Players make decisions for their own characters while building stories together. Collaboration leaves room for disagreement, surprise, success, failure, and lasting change.
Stories can grow from personal concerns as readily as galactic conflict. A difficult job, family responsibility, or professional rivalry can give characters meaningful choices without placing them at the center of galactic history. You do not need to join an established campaign to begin.
Species, culture, faction, profession, and Force tradition can influence a character's background without determining their personality, beliefs, choices, or future. Unusual concepts are welcome when their circumstances and capabilities fit the setting credibly.
The Roleplay Guidelines explain how participants coordinate boundaries, character agency, contested outcomes, and consequences.
SWTOR supplies the setting's primary external foundation, supplemented by compatible Star Wars Legends material. StarForgeRP's original characters, places, organizations, and stories contribute an established community history of their own.
Continuity & Canon explains how these sources fit together and how to distinguish established information, interpretation, and unresolved claims. Community-created history belongs to StarForgeRP's continuity without becoming official SWTOR lore
Consult Current Setting for the shared present and adopted SWTOR story boundary. That page contains major story spoilers.
These pages inform readers; characters need their own reasons to know what the records contain. Hidden affiliations, disputed accounts, and undiscovered information retain their limits within the story. Established history gives participants something to build upon while leaving future choices open.
Seven principal sections connect different parts of the shared setting.
Home — An introduction to StarForgeRP and starting points for exploration.
Characters — Character dossiers, backgrounds, relationships, affiliations, and present circumstances.
Lore — Species, cultures, factions, organizations, Force traditions, technologies, and setting concepts.
Timeline — Significant SWTOR history and StarForgeRP events in chronological context.
Roleplay — Campaigns, missions, gatherings, hooks, developing stories, and concluded adventures.
Galaxy — Worlds, settlements, facilities, strongholds, ruins, persistent vessels, and other physical settings.
Guide — Help with participation, character development, dossiers, continuity, terminology, and site use.
Follow the relationships between records. A dossier may introduce an employer, a location may explain that organization's work, and a story may reveal how both changed.
Explore the Character Directory to find people whose work, interests, relationships, or familiar places might offer a connection. RP Hooks explains how to develop openings and where to check for listed opportunities.
Use Current Storylines to follow developing narratives. For missions seeking or considering additional participants, explore Recruiting Missions. A published character or story is not automatically an invitation to join; check the relevant participation information and coordinate an introduction with the players concerned.
Start with a character whose circumstances you understand and a believable reason to meet someone. A delivery, shared interest, request for assistance, or unfinished obligation can provide enough ground for a first scene.
Getting Started introduces the shared setting, character development, useful documentation, and ways to find a connection. You can begin with a focused background and let experience add depth as relationships and stories develop.
