The Original Character Journal — Starter Kit

0+
Downloaded By

Build characters that actually feel real.

If you’ve ever had scenes, moments, or entire storylines playing out in your head…

…but nowhere to actually organize them—

So everything ends up scattered across notes, docs, and memory…

and nothing ever fully comes together.

This is where your character finally takes shape.

A 140+ page system that turns scattered ideas into fully realized characters.

👉 Now paired with a 52-card prompt deck designed to push your character even deeper.

Made for writers, artists, and tabletop players.

Backed by 200+ creators on Kickstarter ($11K+ raised) · Selected by Kickstarter as a “Project We Love”

👉 This isn’t just a journal anymore.

  • It’s a starting point.

  • A way to not only organize your character…

  • but actually figure them out.

Here’s what this helps you do:

  • Lock in who your character actually is

  • Build characters that stay consistent across your entire story

  • Track personality, relationships, and long-term growth

  • Map their life from past → present → future

  • Capture ideas before they disappear

Inside the journal, you’ll find:

  • Personality, emotional range, and internal conflict

  • Character backstory, key events, and life timeline

  • Relationships, alliances, and character bonds

  • Physical traits, scars, and defining details

  • Moral decisions, values, and contradictions

  • Character timelines

  • How they change over time (not just who they are now)

But building a character isn’t just about filling things out.

  • It’s about asking the right questions.

  • The ones that force you to think deeper.

  • The ones that reveal things you didn’t even realize about them yet.

That’s where the Prompt Deck comes in.

A set of 52 guided prompts designed to push your character further than surface-level details.

Questions that uncover:

  • Regrets, fears, and internal contradictions

  • Motivations that don’t fully make sense (yet)

  • Relationships that create tension

  • Beliefs that shape their decisions

  • The parts of your character that actually make them feel real

Use them alongside the journal, or on their own whenever you feel stuck.

Together, this gives you a much stronger starting point.

Not just a place to organize your character—

but a way to develop them with depth from the beginning.

This is for you if you:

  • Create original characters (OCs)

  • Write stories, comics, or lore

  • Play tabletop RPGs

  • Have ideas in your head but struggle to organize them

This is the tool we built because nothing else was doing this right.

Simple. Focused. Actually useful.

If you’ve been carrying a character around in your head for weeks… months… or years—

This is where they finally take shape.

An oc journal! Don't mind me digging in. I tend to put any lore I have in random places so it's nice to have it in a place that allows for details other than they're traumatized

Haha that's awesome - so glad to hear that we could give you a place to store it all... the trauma and the good times. I hope it's given you some new dimensions to think about as well! Thank you so much for grabbing a copy!

Excellent and comprehensive way to log info about your characters, whether for standalone creative projects, fan works, or RP. There isn't really anything else quite like this on the market.

Thanks so much for grabbing a copy and for sharing your review of the OCJ! I'm so glad to hear that you've been enjoying it. It's funny, we also saw a lack of a comprehensive OC guide in the market, so that was one of the inspirations.

I'm having tons of fun with this journal. It def leans more fantasy/tabletop based I guess which doesn't fit me but I'm still getting tons of content and my money's worth ignoring those parts. Loving developing my OCs with this thing

Hey Drewe! That's so awesome to hear that you're having so much fun with it. That's what we were aiming for. We worked to make it as broad as possible so that it could also include RPG elements, but also work for those who had OC's not in that realm... so am glad it's worked out for you. We've got more expansions coming up! Thank you so much for grabbing a copy and supporting our work!

Super excited to have a full guided OC tracker! This is so cool.
