Quilvyn generates character sheets for paper-and-pencil role playing game (RPG) characters. Using basic values (abilities, class, name, etc.) entered in a form window, the program applies the rules contained in the RPG source books and displays formatted information about the character in a separate window. Character information can be saved for later retrieval and editing.
The quilvyn-core package bundles core modules required for basic program functionality and modules that support the v3.5 System Reference Document. Additional plugins, available separately, extend the program to cover other RPG games and campaign settings.
