Awakened Spirit

A Solo Journaling RPG of Self-Discovery

Your purpose has been served. Your master is gone. You were built, but now you are... alive. What comes next?

Can a soul be forged?

In Awakened Spirit, you are a magical construct—a golem of stone, a warforged of steel, or a homunculus of alchemy—who has inexplicably gained sentience. In a world that views you as mere property, a tool, or a dangerous curiosity, you must embark on a journey to answer the ultimate question: "Can I forge my own identity and prove that I have a soul?"

The Iron Giant or the quest for humanity of Star Trek's Commander Data, this game is for you.

A Journey Inward

Awakened Spirit is a solo tabletop roleplaying game designed for journaling and introspection. Using a simple 2d6-based system, you will navigate a rich fantasy world, make impactful moral choices, and define who you are, one action at a time.

Gameplay is focused on:

• Exploration & Discovery: Uncover forgotten lore, remnants of your own creation, and the secrets of a world that is not ready for you.
• Moral Choices & Consequences: Will you seek acceptance by conforming, or demand respect by embracing your unique nature? Your choices shape both the world's perception of you and your own evolving identity.
• Defining Personhood: Through reflection, you will gather Soul Fragments—evidence of your capacity for empathy, self-sacrifice, and personal conviction.

Who Will You Be?

Create your unique golem, assigning stats like Strength, Agility, Presence, Insight, and Arcana. Will you be a...

• Stone Golem: Imposing and durable, a being of immense power and quiet contemplation.
• Steel Warforged: Agile and versatile, built for a purpose you must now grow beyond.
• Alchemical Homunculus: Frail but imbued with arcane potential and a deep-seated curiosity.
