About this tool

An AI backstory generator that produces three paragraphs of original character history plus five DM hooks ready to weave into your campaign. Feed it your class, race, background, and tonal preference (heroic, tragic, mysterious, comedic) — get a backstory that explains where the character comes from, what they want, and why they're adventuring. The hooks are specifically designed for DMs: each one gives you a plot thread to pull on in a future session.
