WorldMaster RPG vs LegendKeeper
LegendKeeper is a fast, private-by-default worldbuilding wiki with maps, timelines, whiteboards and real-time co-editing. WorldMaster RPG is a worldbuilding wiki and a virtual tabletop in one, with battle maps, fog of war, character sheets and dice for running the actual session.
What is the main difference?
LegendKeeper focuses on writing and organising a world quickly, with collaborators editing together and a clean, speedy interface. It is not a virtual tabletop. WorldMaster RPG adds the play layer: scenes, battle maps, initiative, character sheets and synced dice.

- Character sheets that automate formulas, resource actions and roll triggers for any game system
- A session planner with shared availability, RSVPs and Discord reminders
- Inventories with weight and currency, an item library and player-to-player trading
- An interface in English, Spanish, French, German and Polish
